Although the intent of Congress to amend this section is clear from the directory language of Puspan. L. 98–146 which states that the sentence relating to the eligibility of the State of Idaho be added to “16 U.S.C. 757e”, that directory language has been editorially interpreted as directing the addition of that sentence to section 5 of Puspan. L. 89–304, because Title 16 of the United States Code [this title] has never been enacted into positive law and its sections are therefore not susceptible of amendment as sections of “16 U.S.C.—” and because section 5 of Puspan. L. 89–304 is the statute which was classified to, and serves as the source for 16 U.S.C. 757e [this section].

1983—Puspan. L. 98–146 inserted provision that the State of Idaho shall be eligible on an equal standing with other States for Federal funding for purposes authorized by sections 757a to 757f of this title.
