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 from the Highway Trust Fund to carry out section 5(c) of the STEA03 is 100 percent of the amount authorized to be made available from the Highway Trust Fund in compliance with section 5(c) of the STEA03.
