    1. Section 1101(a)(5) of the SAFETEA-LU authorizes a total of $1,749,098,821 in contract authority for the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program for FY 2008.

    2. Section 104(f) of Title 23, U.S.C., applies a 1.25 percent takedown for Metropolitan Planning from the amount authorized for the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program. This provision reduces the amount apportioned by $21,863,735.

CONGESTION MITIGATION AND AIR QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM

The Secretary of the Treasury of the United States and the State departments of transportation:

Pursuant to Section 9503 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users, Title 23, United States Code, and the delegation of authority from the Secretary of Transportation to the Federal Highway Administrator, Section 1.48 of 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 that can be apportioned for the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008, pursuant to Section 1101(a)(5) of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users, is $1,749,098,821, which is 100 percent of the amount authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year.

Second, pursuant to Section 104(f) of Title 23, United States Code, I have deducted 1.25 percent from the sum of $1,749,098,821 authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008, by Section 1101(a)(5) of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users, for the purpose of carrying out Section 134 of Title 23, United States Code. The amount deducted is $21,863,735. The resulting amount is $1,727,235,086.

Third, that after making the deduction, I have computed the apportionment to each State and the District of Columbia of the remainder of the amounts authorized to be appropriated for the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program in the manner provided by law in accordance with the formula set forth.

Fourth, that subject to the foregoing deduction, the sums that are hereby apportioned to each State and the District of Columbia, effective immediately, are respectively as follows:
