(1) not distribute from the obligation limitation 
for Federal-aid Highways amounts authorized for ad-
ministrative expenses and programs funded from the 
administrative 
takedown 
authorized 
by 
section 
104(a)(1)(A) of title 23, United States Code, for the 
highway use tax evasion program, and for the Bureau 
of Transportation Statistics; 
(2) not distribute an amount from the obligation 
limitation for Federal-aid Highways that is equal to 
the unobligated balance of amounts made available 
from the Highway Trust Fund (other than the Mass 
Transit Account) for Federal-aid highways and high-
way safety programs for the previous fiscal year the 
funds for which are allocated by the Secretary; 
(3) determine the ratio that—
(A) the obligation limitation for Federal-aid 
Highways less the aggregate of amounts not dis-
tributed under paragraphs (1) and (2), bears to 
(B) the total of the sums authorized to be 
appropriated for Federal-aid highways and high-
way safety construction programs (other than
165
HR 2989 PP 
sums authorized to be appropriated for sections 
set forth in paragraphs (1) through (7) of sub-
section (b) and sums authorized to be appro-
priated for section 105 of title 23, United States

eral-aid Highways less the aggregate amounts not dis-
tributed under paragraphs (1) and (2) for section 201

and $2,000,000,000 for such fiscal year under section 
105 of title 23, United States Code (relating to min-
imum guarantee) so that the amount of obligation au-
thority available for each of such sections is equal to

termined under paragraph (3) by the sums authorized 
to be appropriated for such section (except in the case 
of section 105, $2,000,000,000) for such fiscal year; 
(5) distribute the obligation limitation provided 
for Federal-aid Highways less the aggregate amounts 
not distributed under paragraphs (1) and (2) and 
amounts distributed under paragraph (4) for each of 
the programs that are allocated by the Secretary
166
HR 2989 PP 
under title 23, United States Code (other than activi-

(6) distribute the obligation limitation provided 
for Federal-aid Highways less the aggregate amounts 
not distributed under paragraphs (1) and (2) and 
amounts distributed under paragraphs (4) and (5) for 
Federal-aid highways and highway safety construc-
tion programs (other than the minimum guarantee 
program, but only to the extent that amounts appor-
