CERTIFICATE OF APPORTIONMENT
FROM THE SUM OF $1,800,000,000 AUTHORIZED
TO BE APPROPRIATED FOR THE INTERSTATE SYSTEM
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 1993

To--

The Secretary of the Treasury of the United States and the State Highway Departments:

Pursuant to the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, as amended, section 9503 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, title 23, United States Code, and the delegation of authority from the Secretary of Transportation to the Federal Highway Administrator in section 1.48, title 49, Code of Federal Regulations, I certify--

First, that the Secretary of the Treasury has made the estimate required by section 9503(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and based on that estimate, I have determined that the amount which can be apportioned for projects on the Interstate System is $1,800,000,000 which is 100 per centum of the amount authorized to be appropriated for the Interstate System for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1993 pursuant to section 108(b) of the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956.

Second, that pursuant to section 1006(h)(2) of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, I have set aside $20,000,000 from the sums authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1993 for the interstate system by section 108(b) of the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 to carry FHWA NOTICE N 4510.263 out section 1006(h) of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991.

Third, that pursuant to section 118(c)(1) of title 23, United States Code, I have set aside $100,000,000 from the sums authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1993 for the Interstate System by section 108(b) of the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, to carry out section 118(b)(2) of title 23, United States Code.

Fourth, that in compliance with section 104(a) of title 23, United States Code, I have estimated that it will be necessary for administering the provisions of title 23 and for highway research and studies, to deduct 2.75 per centum from the amounts authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1993, for the Interstate System and I have deducted 2.75 per centum from the sum of $1,800,000,000 authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1993, by section 108(b) of the Federal-Aid Highway act of 1956.

Fifth, that after the deduction and set-asides I have computed the apportionment among the several States and the District of Columbia of the remainder of the amounts authorized to be appropriated for the Interstate System in the manner provided by law in accordance with section 104(b)(5)(A) of title 23, United States Code.

Sixth, that subject to the foregoing deduction and set-asides the sums which are hereby apportioned to each State and the District of Columbia effective immediately are respectively as follows: [see table 1]
