                        with access to the conduit installed pursuant 
                        to this subsection shall notify, and receive 
                        permission from, the relevant agencies of State 
                        responsible for the installation of such 
                        broadband conduit prior to accessing any 
                        highway or highway right-of-way, in accordance 
                        with applicable Federal requirements.
                    (E) Treatment of projects.--Notwithstanding any 
                other provision of law, broadband conduit and broadband 
                infrastructure installation projects installed by a 
                State under this paragraph shall comply with section 
                113(a) of title 23, United States Code.
                    (F) Waiver authority.--
                            (i) In general.--A State department of 
                        transportation may waive the required 
                        installation of broadband conduit for part or 
                        all of any covered highway construction project 
                        under this paragraph if, in the determination 
                        of the State department of transportation--
                                    (I) broadband infrastructure, 
                                terrestrial broadband infrastructure, 
                                aerial broadband fiber cables, or 
                                broadband conduit is present near a 
                                majority of the length of the covered 
                                highway construction project;
                                    (II) installation of terrestrial or 
                                aerial broadband fiber cables 
                                associated with the covered highway 
                                construction project is more 
                                appropriate for the context or a more 
                                cost-effective means to facilitate 
                                broadband service to an area not 
                                adequately served by broadband and such 
                                installation is present or planned;
                                    (III) the installation of broadband 
                                conduit increases overall costs of a 
                                covered highway construction project by 
                                1.5 percent or greater;
                                    (IV) the installation of broadband 
                                conduit associated with the covered 
                                highway construction project is not 
                                reasonably expected to be utilized or 
                                connected to future broadband 
                                infrastructure in the 20 years 
                                following the date on which such 
                                determination is made, as determined by 
                                the State department of transportation, 
                                in consultation with appropriate State 
                                agencies and potentially affected local 
                                governments and Indian tribes;
                                    (V) the requirements of this 
                                paragraph would require installation of 
                                conduit redundant with a dig once 
                                requirement of a local government or 
                                Indian tribe;
                                    (VI) there exists a circumstance 
                                involving force majeure; or
                                    (VII) the installation of conduit 
                                is not appropriate based on other 
                                relevant factors established by the 
                                Secretary in consultation with the NTIA 
                                Administrator through regulation.

                                issuing such waiver.
                            (iii) Availability of waiver.--Notification 
                        of a waiver authorized under this subparagraph 
                        shall be made publicly available, such as on a

                                department of transportation shall be 
                                responsible for the waiver 
                                determination described under this 
                                paragraph, consistent with the 
                                regulation issued pursuant to this 
                                subsection, and may grant a 
                                programmatic waiver for categories of 
                                projects excluded under this 
                                subparagraph.
                                    (II) No private cause of action.--
                                The waiver determination described 
                                under this paragraph shall be final and 
                                conclusive. Nothing in this section 
                                shall provide a private right or cause 
                                of action to challenge such 
                                determination in any court of law.

        (hereinafter referred to as the ``Task Force'').
            (2) Duties.--The duties of the Task Force shall be to--
                    (A) estimate the annual cost for implementing, 
                administering, and maintaining a nationwide dig once 
                requirement;
                    (B) propose and evaluate options for funding a 
                nationwide dig once requirement described in this 
                section that includes--
                            (i) a discussion of the role and potential 
                        share of costs of--
                                    (I) the Federal Government;
                                    (II) State and local governments 
                                and Indian tribes; and

                        broadband conduit installed pursuant to this 
                        section;
                            (ii) may vary by topography, location, type 
                        of road, rurality, and other factors; and
                            (iii) may consider financial and market 
                        incentives for expanding broadband 
                        infrastructure.
