31 U.S. Code § 6305 - Using cooperative agreements
U.S. Code

Notes

An executive agency shall use a cooperative agreement as the legal
instrument reflecting a relationship between the United States
Government and a State, a local government, or other recipient when—
(1) the principal purpose of the relationship is to transfer a thing of value
to the State, local government, or other recipient to carry out a public
purpose of support or stimulation authorized by a law of the United States
instead of acquiring (by purchase, lease, or barter) property or services for
the direct benefit or use of the United States Government; and
(2) substantial involvement is expected between the executive agency and
the State, local government, or other recipient when carrying out the
activity contemplated in the agreement.
