How will funding get to the Tribes?
Answer 4: The funds will be allocated to FHWA. FHWA will withhold the funding amount associated with the Tribes under FHWA/Tribal IRR Program Agreements and will then reallocate the remainder to the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). All funds will be kept at the respective agencies until such time that the required documentation is received and approved by BIA-Division of Transportation (BIA-DOT) and FHWA. Except for specific cases submitted to and approved by BIA and FHWA, funds will not be provided for both the design and construction of a project simultaneously (see below).
