  The Administrator, subject to the approval of the Director, shall make no commitment, nor shall the Administrator enter into any agreement pursuant to NRS 407.205 to 407.209, inclusive, until the Administrator has determined that sufficient funds are available to the Division for meeting the State’s share, if any, of project costs. It is the legislative intent that, to such extent as may be necessary to assure the proper operation and maintenance of areas and facilities acquired or developed pursuant to any program participated in by this state under NRS 407.205 to 407.209, inclusive, such areas and facilities must be publicly maintained for outdoor recreation purposes. The Administrator, subject to the approval of the Director, may enter into and administer agreements with the United States or any appropriate agency thereof for planning, acquisition and development projects involving participating federal aid funds on behalf of any political subdivision or subdivisions of this state if such subdivision or subdivisions give necessary assurances to the Division that they have available sufficient funds to meet their shares, if any, of the cost of the project and that the acquired or developed areas will be operated and maintained at the expense of such subdivision or subdivisions for public outdoor recreation use.
