Sec. 277d-37. Channel shifts; boundary determination
When a determination must be made under the treaty whether to permit
a new channel to become the boundary, or whether or not to restore a
river to its former channel, or whether, instead of restoration, the
Governments should undertake a rectification of the river channel, the
Commissioner's decision, approved by the Secretary of State shall be
final so far as the United States is concerned, and the Commissioner is
authorized to construct or arrange for the construction of such works as
may be required to give effect to that decision.
