I. Since hydraulic engineering projects are sometimes dependent on new plants and installations sometimes supplementary to plants and installations already operating, and sometimes dependent on the opening of waterways (which are in turn linked to the agricultural hydraulic projects strictly speaking), It is not possible to indicate the cost price per hectare in such a way as to represent the total expense. The following data may be arrived at:
1. In Tonking, work in progress is malnly supplementary to earlier construction. For the new NINH BINH (experimental farm colony?) ${ }^{b}$ of 25,000 hectares, the projects consist chiefly of opening a new waterway important to relieve the (tonnage carried by?) the railroads, and of preparing for hydraulic construction work. Research pertaining to these projects gives a probable cost price of 400 Plasters per hectare, 80 Plasters of which would be for the waterway construction.
2. In Annam, at the LIETSON (experimental farm colony?) ${ }^{b}$ the probable cost price is 1,000 Plasters per hectare. The construction work at Camxuyen is strictly preparatory and consists of opening a navigable waterway.
3. In Cochin-China and Cambodia, the cost price varies greatly according to the nature of the projects and the hydrography of the region. For the plain of Guan Lo and the supplementary installations of the RAGBBIK-(TRATIEN?) zone: average, 20 Plasters per hectare. For the PREY (experimental farm colony?) ${ }^{b}, 110$.
II. Approximate average cost price per kilometer for roads in 1944.
4. Colonial Road no 13.
