All such moneys are appropriated for the purposes for which the same were made available, to be expended in accordance with federal laws and regulations and with this chapter. The Department may, whether acting for this State or as the agent of any political subdivision, or when requested by the United States government or any agency or department thereof, disburse such moneys for the designated purposes, but this shall not preclude any other authorized method of disbursement.
