(B) Implementation The Secretary shall issue regulations to carry out this section only after consultation with the Council on Environmental Quality. Such regulations shall— (i) provide for monitoring of the perform- ance of environmental reviews under this section; (ii) in the discretion of the Secretary, pro- vide for the provision or facilitation of training for such performance; and (iii) subject to the discretion of the Sec- retary, provide for suspension or termi- nation by the Secretary of the assumption under subparagraph (A).

(2) Procedure The Secretary shall approve the release of funds for projects subject to the procedures au- thorized by this section only if, not less than 15 days prior to such approval and prior to any commitment of funds to such projects, the re- cipient submits to the Secretary a request for such release, accompanied by a certification of the State or unit of general local government which meets the requirements of paragraph (3). The Secretary’s approval of any such certifi- cation shall be deemed to satisfy the Secretary’s responsibilities under the National Environ- mental Policy Act of 1969 [42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.] and such other provisions of law as the regula- tions of the Secretary specify insofar as those Page 5945 TITLE 42—THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE § 3549 responsibilities relate to the releases of funds for special projects to be carried out pursuant thereto which are covered by such certification. (3) Certification A certification under the procedures author- ized by this section shall— (A) be in a form acceptable to the Secretary; (B) be executed by the chief executive officer or other officer of the State or unit of general local government who qualifies under regula- tions of the Secretary; (C) specify that the State or unit of general local government under this section has fully carried out its responsibilities as described under paragraph (1); and (D) specify that the certifying officer— (i) consents to assume the status of a re- sponsible Federal official under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 [42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.] and each provision of law speci- fied in regulations issued by the Secretary insofar as the provisions of such Act or other such provision of law apply pursuant to paragraph (1); and (ii) is authorized and consents on behalf of the State or unit of general local govern- ment and himself or herself to accept the ju- risdiction of the Federal courts for the pur- pose of enforcement of the responsibilities as such an official. (4) Approval by States In cases in which a unit of general local gov- ernment carries out the responsibilities de- scribed in paragraph (1), the Secretary may per- mit the State to perform those actions of the Secretary described in paragraph (2) and the per- formance of such actions by the State, where permitted by the Secretary, shall be deemed to satisfy the Secretary’s responsibilities referred to in the second sentence of paragraph (2).
