retary in accordance with this section.
‘‘(4) REDUCTION OF APPORTIONMENT.—Funds
apportioned under this section to any State, that
does not have a highway safety program approved by
the Secretary or that is not implementing an ap-
proved program, shall be reduced by amounts equal
to not less than 50 percent of the amounts that
would otherwise be apportioned to the State under
this section, until such time as the Secretary ap-
proves such program or determines that the State is
implementing an approved program, as appropriate.

State’s failure to have or implement an approved
program in determining the amount of the reduc-
tion.
‘‘(5) APPORTIONMENT OF WITHHELD FUNDS.—
The Secretary shall promptly apportion to the State
the funds withheld from its apportionment if the
Secretary approves the State’s highway safety pro-
gram or determines that the State has begun imple-
menting an approved program, as appropriate, prior
129

ning or administration) without regard to whether
such expenditures were actually made in connection
with such project.
‘‘(4) INCREASED FEDERAL SHARE FOR CERTAIN
INDIAN TRIBE PROGRAMS.—In the case of a local
highway safety program carried out by an Indian
tribe, if the Secretary is satisfied that an Indian
tribe does not have sufficient funds available to meet
