Contracts on terms approved by Bureau of Public Roads.

In order to facilitate civil defense and the construction and
maintenance of flight strips, access highways, and the construction
of other federal aid highways and roads, the Commission, upon the
request of the Bureau of Public Roads, may cooperate with and act as
the agent of the Bureau of Public Roads in making the surveys, plans
and specifications and estimates for, and in the construction and
maintenance of, flight strips, roads and bridges necessary to
provide access to military and naval establishments, defense
industries, defense-industry sites, source of raw materials, roads
and bridges replacing existing highways and highway connections shut
off from general public use at military and naval reservations and
defense-industry sites, and other federal aid highways.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of law, the Commission may
negotiate and enter into contracts for the construction or
maintenance of any such flight strip, road, bridge or highway, under
such procedure, in such manner and upon such terms and conditions as
may be approved by the Bureau of Public Roads, or may, either as
principal or agent of the Bureau of Public Roads, perform such
construction and maintenance work by the "force-account" method. The
provisions of this article shall be applicable in all cases where
the work is being paid for either in whole with federal funds or in
part with federal funds and in part with funds of the State of
Oklahoma or one of its subdivisions.
