        as the distribution of obligation authority under subsection 
        (c)(5). The funds so distributed shall be available for any

        due to the imposition of any obligation limitation for such

        of such title. The funds so distributed to a State shall be 
        credited to the State's apportionment under such section 
        104(b)(5).

from the Kentucky State line to the junction with corridor B at 
Rosemount, corridor C from the junction with corridor B at Lucasville 
to State Route 159 at Chillicothe, or corridor D from the Adams County 
line to the Ohio River in Washington County as segments of the

    (b) Interstate System Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Pilot 
Program.--
            (1) Establishment.--The Secretary shall establish and

            (2) Limitation on number of facilities.--The Secretary may 
        permit the collection of tolls under this subsection on 3

                consulted concerning the placement and amount of tolls 
                on the facility.
                    (C) An analysis demonstrating that such facility 
                could not be maintained or improved to meet current or 
                future needs from the State's apportionments and 
                allocations made available by this Act (including 
                amendments made by this Act) and from revenues for

                        facility using toll revenues;
                            (iii) a description of the public 
                        transportation agency which will be responsible 
                        for implementation and administration of the 
                        pilot toll reconstruction and rehabilitation 
                        program; and
                            (iv) a description of whether consideration 
                        will be given to privatizing the maintenance 
                        and operational aspects of the converted 
                        facility, while retaining legal and 
                        administrative control of the Interstate route

                require.
            (4) Selection criteria.--The Secretary may approve the

                rehabilitate the proposed toll facility using existing 
                apportionments.
                    (B) The facility has a sufficient intensity of use,

                    (C) The State plan for implementing tolls on the 
                facility takes into account the interests of local,

                capability to build, operate, and maintain a toll 
                expressway system meeting criteria for the Interstate 
                System.

                the toll facility will be used only for debt service, 
                for reasonable return on investment of any private 
                person financing the project, and for any costs 
                necessary for the improvement of and the proper 
                operation and maintenance of the toll facility, 
                including reconstruction, resurfacing, restoration, and 
                rehabilitation of the toll facility; and
                    (B) regular audits will be conducted to ensure 
                compliance with subparagraph (A) and the results of 
such audits will be transmitted to the Secretary.

                off-peak hours;
                    (C) rapid deployment to allow for daily or periodic 
                restoring lanes for use by traffic during peak hours as 
                needed;
                    (D) mitigating congestion caused by construction 
                by--
                            (i) opening all adjacent and available 
                        lanes to traffic during peak traffic hours; or
                            (ii) use of reversible lanes to optimize 
                        capacity of the highway by adjusting to 
                        directional traffic flow; and
                    (E) permanent use of positive separation 
                technologies to create contraflow or reversible lanes 
                to increase the capacity of congested highways, 
                bridges, and tunnels.

                Environmental Policy Act of 1969; or
                    (B) may be required by Federal law to 
                independently--
                            (i) conduct an environmental-related review 
                        or analysis; or
                            (ii) determine whether to issue a permit, 
                        license, or approval or render an opinion on 
                        the environmental impact of the project.
            (2) Time limitations and concurrent review.--The Secretary 
        and the head of each Federal agency identified under paragraph

                        environmental analyses, reviews, opinions, and 
                        decisions on any permits, licenses, and 
                        approvals that must be issued or made for the 
                        project;
                whereby each such Federal agency's review shall be 
                undertaken and completed within such established time 
                periods for review; or
                    (ii) may enter into an agreement to establish such 
                time periods for review with respect to a class of 
                projects; and
                    (B) shall ensure, in establishing such time periods 
                for review, that the conduct of any such analysis, 
                review, opinion, and decision is undertaken 
                concurrently with all other environmental reviews for 
                the project, including those required by the National 
                Environmental Policy Act of 1969; except that such 
                review may not be concurrent if the affected Federal 
                agency can demonstrate that such concurrent review 
                would result in a significant adverse impact to the 
                environment or substantively alter the operation of 
                Federal law or would not be possible without 
                information developed as part of the environmental 
                review process.
            (3) Factors to be considered.--Time periods for review 
        established under this section shall be consistent with those 
        established by the Council on Environmental Quality under the 
        provisions of sections 1501.8 and 1506.10 of title 40, Code of 
        Federal Regulations.
            (4) Extensions.--The Secretary shall extend any time 
        periods for review under this section if, upon good cause 
        shown, the Secretary and any Federal agency concerned determine 
        that additional time for analysis and review is needed as a 
        result of new information which has been discovered that could 
        not reasonably have been anticipated when such agency's time 
        periods for review were established. Any memorandum of 
        understanding shall be modified to incorporate any mutually 
        agreed upon extensions.
    (c) Dispute Resolution.--When the Secretary determines that a 
Federal agency which is subject to a time period for its environmental 
review or analysis under this section has failed to complete such 
review, analysis, opinion, or decision on issuing any permit, license, 
or approval within the established time period or within any agreed 
upon extension to such time period, then the Secretary may close the 
record. If the Secretary finds after timely compliance with this 
section, that an environmental issue related to the highway project 
that an affected Federal agency has jurisdiction over by operation of 
Federal law has not been resolved, then the Secretary and the head of 
such agency shall resolve the matter within 30 days of the finding by 
the Secretary.
    (d) Acceptance of Purpose and Need.--For any environmental impact 
statement prepared pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act of 
1969 or the conduct of any other environmental review, analysis, 
opinion, or issuance of an environmental permit, license, or approval 
that requires an analysis of purpose and need, the agency conducting 
such review with respect to the highway project shall give due 
consideration to the project purpose and need as defined by the 
Secretary and the project applicant.
    (e) Participation of State Agencies.--For any project eligible for 
assistance under chapter 1 of title 23, United States Code, a State, by 
operation of State law, may require that all State agencies that have 
jurisdiction by State or Federal law over environmental-related issues 
that may be affected by the project or must issue any environmental-
related reviews, analyses, opinions, or determinations on issuing any 
permits, licenses, or approvals for the project be subject to the 
coordinated environmental review process provided for in this section 
unless the Secretary determines that a State's participation would not 
be in the public interest. For a State to require State agencies to 
participate in the review process, all affected agencies of such State 
shall be subject to the review process.
    (f) Assistance to Affected Federal Agencies.--The Secretary may 
approve a request by a State to provide funds made available under 
chapter 1 of title 23, United States Code, to the State for the project 
subject to the review process established by this section to affected 
Federal agencies to provide the resources necessary to meet any time 
limits established by this section. Such requests shall only be 
approved for the additional amounts that the Secretary determines are 
necessary for such affected Federal agencies to meet the time limits 
for environmental review where such time limits are less than the 
customary time necessary for such review.
    (g) Federal Agency Defined.--For the purposes of this section, the 
term ``Federal agency'' means any Federal agency or any State agency 
carrying out affected responsibilities required by operation of Federal 
law.
    (h) Judicial Review and Savings Clause.--
            (1) Judicial review.--Nothing in this section shall affect 
        the reviewability of any final Federal agency action in a 
        district court of the United States or in the court of any 
        State.
            (2) Savings clause.--Nothing in this section shall be 
        construed to affect the applicability of the National 
        Environmental Policy Act of 1969 or any other Federal 
        environmental statute or affect the responsibility of any 
        Federal officer to comply with or enforce any such statute.
    (i) State Environmental Review Delegation Pilot Demonstration 
Program.--
            (1) In general.--The Secretary, in cooperation with the 
        Council on Environmental Quality, shall establish and implement 
        a State environmental review pilot demonstration program. Such 
        program shall permit the Secretary, in cooperation with the 
        Council on Environmental Quality, to develop criteria for 
        States to select up to 8 States for participation in the 
        program. A State interested in participation in the program 
        shall submit to the Secretary an application for participation.
            (2) Delegation of authority.--For each State selected to 
        participate in the pilot program, the Secretary shall delegate 
        and the State shall accept all of the responsibilities for 
        conducting the Federal environmental review process required by 
        the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 in the manner 
        required if the projects were undertaken by the Secretary.
            (3) Certification.--A State that is selected to participate 
        in the pilot program shall, prior to assuming any 
        responsibilities for the Secretary under this subsection, 
        submit to the Secretary and the Secretary, in cooperation with 
        the Council on Environmental Quality, shall approve a 
        certification that shall, at a minimum--
                    (A) be in a form acceptable to the Secretary;
                    (B) be executed by the Chief Executive Officer of 
                the recipient of assistance under this section 
                (hereinafter in this section referred to as the 
                ``certifying officer'');
                    (C) specify that the certifying officer consents to 
                assume the status of a responsible Federal officer 
                under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
                (and any applicable regulations issued by the Secretary 
                or the Council on Environmental Quality implementing 
                such Act) for the affected project;
                    (D) accept jurisdiction of the Federal courts for 
                the purpose of enforcement of the State's 
                responsibilities for the project; and
                    (E) agree that the Secretary's approval of such 
                certification shall constitute the Secretary's 
                responsibilities under the National Environmental 
                Policy Act of 1969 and any other related provisions of 
                law that the Secretary may specify for the affected 
                project.
            (4) Oversight.--For each State selected to participate in 
        the pilot program, the Secretary shall, in cooperation with the 
        Council on Environmental Quality, conduct quarterly audits in 
        the first year of such participation, and annual audits every 
        year thereafter, to ensure that each selected State is 
        complying with all elements of the certification provided for 
        in this subsection and all requirements delegated pursuant to 
        this subsection.
            (5) Termination.--The Secretary, in cooperation with the 
        Council on Environmental Quality, may immediately terminate the 
        participation of any State if the Secretary, in cooperation 
        with the Council on Environmental Quality, finds that such 
        State is not complying with any responsibility or duty set 
        forth in this subsection or that the State's continued 
        participation in the program would result in any adverse impact 
        on the environment.
            (6) Period of applicability.--The pilot program shall 
        remain in effect for 3 years. The pilot program shall apply to 
        all projects initiated within such 3-year period, and any such 
        project shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection 
        until the review of the project is completed under this 
        subsection.

in section 450.318 of title 23, Code of Federal Regulations, as a 
separate requirement and promulgate regulations to integrate such 
requirement, as appropriate, as part of each analysis undertaken 
pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 for a project 
receiving assistance with funds made available under this Act 
(including any amendments made by this Act).

SEC. 504. FINANCIAL PLAN.

    The Secretary shall require each recipient of Federal financial 
assistance for a highway or transit project with an estimated total 
cost of $1,000,000,000 or more to submit to the Secretary an annual 
financial plan. Such plan shall be based on detailed annual estimates 
of the cost to complete the remaining elements of the project and on 
reasonable assumptions, as determined by the Secretary, of future 
increases in the cost to complete the project.

proposal, and shall establish terms and conditions for direct loans and 
loan guarantees made under that section.

guarantee made under section 502 may assign the loan guarantee in whole 
or in part, subject to such requirements as the Secretary may

requirements, if the Secretary finds in writing that--
            ``(1) the modification is equitable and is in the overall

of this title, regulations issued hereunder, and the terms and 
conditions of the direct loan or loan guarantee, including through 
regular periodic inspections.
    ``(f) Commercial Validity.--For purposes of claims by any party 
other than the Secretary, a loan guarantee or loan guarantee commitment 
shall be conclusive evidence that the underlying obligation is in 
compliance with the provisions of this title, and that such obligation 
has been approved and is legal as to principal, interest, and other 
terms. Such a guarantee or commitment shall be valid and incontestable 
in the hands of a holder thereof, including the original lender or any 
other holder, as of the date when the Secretary granted the application 
therefor, except as to fraud or material misrepresentation by such 
holder.
    ``(g) Default.--The Secretary shall prescribe regulations setting 
forth procedures in the event of default on a loan made or guaranteed 
under section 502. The Secretary shall ensure that each loan guarantee 
made under that section contains terms and conditions that provide 
that--
            ``(1) if a payment of principal or interest under the loan 
        is in default for more than 30 days, the Secretary shall pay to 
        the holder of the obligation, or the holder's agent, the amount 
        of unpaid guaranteed interest;

        the Secretary shall pay to the holder of the obligation, or the 
        holder's agent, 90 percent of the unpaid guaranteed principal;

        liquidation or otherwise, the Secretary shall pay to the holder 
        of the obligation, or the holder's agent, any remaining amounts 
        guaranteed but which were not recovered through the default's 
        resolution;
            ``(4) the Secretary shall not be required to make any 
        payment under paragraphs (1) through (3) if the Secretary 
        finds, before the expiration of the periods described in such 
        paragraphs, that the default has been remedied; and
            ``(5) the holder of the obligation shall not receive 
        payment or be entitled to retain payment in a total amount 
        which, together with all other recoveries (including any 
        recovery based upon a security interest in equipment or 
        facilities) exceeds the actual loss of such holder.
    ``(h) Rights of the Secretary.--
            ``(1) Subrogation.--If the Secretary makes payment to a 
        holder, or a holder's agent, under subsection (g) in connection 
        with a loan guarantee made under section 502, the Secretary 
        shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the holder with

        charter, rent, sell, or otherwise dispose of any property or 
        other interests obtained pursuant to this section. The 
        Secretary shall not be subject to any Federal or State 
        regulatory requirements when carrying out this paragraph.
    ``(i) Action Against Obligor.--The Secretary may bring a civil 
action in an appropriate Federal court in the name of the United States 
in the event of a default on a direct loan made under section 502, or 
in the name of the United States or of the holder of the obligation in 
the event of a default on a loan guaranteed under section 502. The 
holder of a guarantee shall make available to the Secretary all records 
and evidence necessary to prosecute the civil action. The Secretary may 
accept property in full or partial satisfaction of any sums owed as a 
result of a default. If the Secretary receives, through the sale or 
other disposition of such property, an amount greater than the 
aggregate of--
            ``(1) the amount paid to the holder of a guarantee under 
        subsection (g) of this section; and
            ``(2) any other cost to the United States of remedying the 
        default,
the Secretary shall pay such excess to the obligor.
    ``(j) Breach of Conditions.--The Attorney General shall commence a 
civil action in an appropriate Federal court to enjoin any activity 
which the Secretary finds is in violation of this title, regulations 
issued hereunder, or any conditions which were duly agreed to, and to 
secure any other appropriate relief.

the Secretary, or any property in the control of the Secretary, prior 
to the entry of final judgment to such effect in any State, Federal, or 
other court.
    ``(l) Investigation Charge.--The Secretary may charge and collect 
from each applicant a reasonable charge for appraisal of the value of 
the equipment or facilities for which the direct loan or loan guarantee 
is sought, and for making necessary determinations and findings. Such 
charge shall not aggregate more than one-half of 1 percent of the 
principal amount of the obligation.'';
