What the document says
“DIVISION B--ENERGY AND WATER DEVELOPMENT AND RELATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2026 Title I--Corps of Engineers--Civil Title II--Department of the Interior Title III--Department of Energy Title IV--Independent Agencies Title V--General Provisions”
The table's entry for division B. It names the division the Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2026, and lists its five titles: the civil works of the Corps of Engineers, the Department of the Interior, the Department of Energy, Independent Agencies, and General Provisions. The text of that division is inside section 5.
What the document actually says
“DIVISION B--ENERGY AND WATER DEVELOPMENT AND RELATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2026 Title I--Corps of Engineers--Civil Title II--Department of the Interior Title III--Department of Energy Title IV--Independent Agencies Title V--General Provisions”
That sentence, in plain words
The second big part of the law is division B. It has five titles. They cover water projects, some Interior work, energy, some small agencies, and rules.
What this is about
The Interior title here is not the whole department. It pays for the part that builds and runs dams and canals in the West.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
