Summary:
This series consists of linen plans and drawings for contracts authorized by New York State and funded by the federal government.
Under terms of a 1935 state-federal agreement, New York State was able to accept federal aid for improvements to the Barge
Canal System without transferring the canals to the federal government. As contracts were completed, the federal government
reimbursed the state. The project was known as the Hudson to Great Lakes Waterway and the contracts became popularly known
as "U.S." contracts.
