    Background: 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. SAFETEA-
LU 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. The types of 
transfers affected by this notice are:
    a. Transfer of funds from a State to the FHWA pursuant to U.S.C. 
Title 23, Sec.  104(k)(3);

FHWA;
    c. Transfer of funds from a State to another State;
    d. Transfer of funds between programs; and,
    e. Transfer of funds between projects.

include the requester's contact information, a description of the 
program/project the transfer will come from and go to, the fiscal year, 
the program code, a demo identification number or an urban area when 
applicable, and the amount to be transferred. The form must be approved 
by the applicable State Department of Transportation and concurred on 
by the correlating FHWA Division Office.

Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
