Abstract: Sections 1108, 1119(b), 1935, and 1936 of Public Law 109-59, the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) expanded the transferability of funds to other agencies and among programs. This information collection establishes requirements for initiating the transferring of apportioned and allocated funds between entities and between projects and programs to carry out these provisions of law. This information collection supports the Department of Transportation’s (DOT’s) Organizational Excellence Goal of improving financial, budget and performance integration strategies. This process requires several participants to work together efficiently in order to successfully complete the process. This information collection will allow each party to be involved in the process as well as ensure that the state’s fund transfer requests are accurately executed, and that the requests are allowable by law.
