ing an intention to obligate, for a project under
this section, an amount from future available
budget authority specified in law that is not
more than the amount stipulated as the finan-
cial participation of the Secretary in the
project.
(B) NOTIFICATION.—At least 60 days be-
fore issuing a letter under subparagraph (A) or
entering into a full funding grant agreement,
the Secretary shall notify in writing the Com-
mittee on Transportation and Infrastructure of
the House of Representatives and the Com-
mittee on Environment and Public Works of the
Senate of the proposed letter or agreement. The
Secretary shall include with the notification a
copy of the proposed letter or agreement as well
as the evaluations and ratings for the project.
(C) NOT AN OBLIGATION.—The issuance
of a letter is deemed not to be an obligation

amount from future available budget authority
specified in law. The agreement shall state that
the contingent commitment is not an obligation
of the Government. Interest and other financing
costs of efficiently carrying out a part of the
project within a reasonable time are a cost of
carrying out the project under a full funding
grant agreement, except that eligible costs may
not be more than the cost of the most favorable
financing terms reasonably available for the
project at the time of borrowing. The applicant

retary, that the applicant has shown reasonable
diligence in seeking the most favorable financ-
ing terms.

future obligations of the Government and contingent
commitments to incur obligations covered by all out-
standing letters of intent and full funding grant
agreements may be not more than the greater of the

ing authorized to carry out this section less an
amount the Secretary reasonably estimates is nec-
essary for grants under this section not covered by

grant agreements may be not more than a limitation
specified in law.

project receiving assistance under this section. A grant for
the project is for 80 percent of the project cost, unless
the grant recipient requests a lower grant percentage. A
refund or reduction of the remainder may be made only
if a refund of a proportional amount of the grant of the
Government is made at the same time.

bility of a highway construction project to be in-
cluded in the program:
207
(A) A requirement that the contract for
the project must include a long-term limited
warranty that is of a duration sufficient to en-
sure that—
(i) the cost to the State of the project
that will be carried out is less than the es-
timated cost to construct the project with-
out the warranty plus the estimated costs
that would be incurred by the State and
that would otherwise be covered during the
proposed warranty period if a warranty
were in effect; and
(ii) the estimated cost to road users
during the warranty period is less than
such estimated cost without a warranty.
(B) In determining the sufficient duration
of a long-term limited warranty under subpara-
graph (A), the Secretary shall establish sepa-
rate sufficient durations for different types of
projects, such as initial construction, pavement
resurfacing and rehabilitation, and pavement
markings.

ranty must address, at a minimum—
208
(i) the responsibilities of the warranty
provider;
(ii) the responsibilities of the Depart-
ment of Transportation;

ing duration and, if applicable, traffic vol-
umes and vehicle classification; and

CONSIDER.—In issuing the
rule, the Secretary may consider the following fac-
tors as requirements for the warranty contract for
eligibility under the pilot program:

ments performed.
(C) The response time for repairs.
(D) A plan for emergency repairs.

the warranty, if any.
