Background: The Federal-aid 

Highway Program provides for the 

reimbursement to States for expenditure 

of State funds for eligible Federal-aid 

highway projects. The Voucher for Work 

Performed under Provisions of the

provide project financial data regarding 

the expenditure of State funds and to

the submission of vouchers. The 

specific information required on the 

voucher is contained in 23 U.S.C. 121 

and 117. Two types of submissions are 

required by recipients. One is a progress 

voucher where the recipient enters the 

amounts claimed for each FHWA 

appropriation, and the other is a final 

voucher where project costs are 

classified by work type. An electronic 

version of the Voucher for Work 

Performed under Provisions of the 

Federal Aid Highway Acts, as amended, 

Form PR–20, is used by all recipients to 

request progress and final payments. 

Respondents: 50 State Transportation 

Departments, the District of Columbia, 

Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, 

and the Virgin Islands.

Estimated Average Burden per
