Attachment

TO--

The Secretary of the Treasury of the United States and the State Transportation Agencies:

Pursuant to section 9503 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century, 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, 2000, is $1,358,138,000, which is 100 percent of the amount authorized to be appropriated for the Program for that fiscal year pursuant to section 1101(a)(5) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century.

Second, 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, United States Code, to deduct 1.50 percent from the amount authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000, for the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program, and I have deducted said 1.50 percent from the sum of $1,358,138,000 authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000, by section 1101(a)(5) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century.

Third, that in compliance with section 104(f) of title 23, United States Code, and after making the deduction authorized by section 104(a) of title 23, United States Code, I have deducted one percent of the sum remaining from the authorization of $1,358,138,000 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000, for the purpose of carrying out section 134 of title 23, United States Code.

Fourth, that after making the deductions, 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 Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program in the manner provided by law in accordance with the formula set forth in section 104(b)(2) of title 23, United States Code.

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