The major exceptions are the Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program, which provides assistance for bridges on and off the federal -aid highways, highway safety activities, bicycle and pedestrian projects, transportation enhancement activities, the recreational trails program, and planning, research, development, and technology transfer. Proposed projects meeting these and other planning, design, environmental, safety, etc., requirements can be approved on the basis of state and local priorities within the limit of the funds apportioned or allocated to each state. Allowable Costs: Eligible activities and allowable costs will be determined in accordance with Title 23 and Title 49 C.F.R. and the OMB cost principles applicable to the recipient/sub- recipient. Eligibility: By law, the federal -aid highway program is a federally assisted state program that requires each state to have a suitably equipped and organized transportation department. Therefore, most projects are administered by or through State Departments of Transportation (State DOTs). Projects to be funded under the federal -aid highway program are generally selected by state DOTs or Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs), in cooperation with appropriate local officials, as specified in 23 U.S.C. and implementing regulations. Territorial highway projects are funded in the same manner as other federal -aid highway projects, with the territorial transportation agency functioning in a manner similar to a state DOT. Most Federal Land Highway Program (FLHP) projects are administered by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Office of Federal Lands Highway and its Divisions or by the various Florida Land Management Agencies (FLMAs). Under the FLHP, projects in the Indian Reservation Road (IRR) Program are selected by Tribal Governments and are approved by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and the FHWA. Due to recent legislation, Tribal Governments meeting certain requirements may now administer various IRR projects on behalf of the BIA and FHWA. The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the National Park Service (NPS) select projects in the Refuge Road and Park Roads and Parkways Programs, respectively. For the Forest Highway Program, the Forest Service, the States and the FHWA jointly select projects.
