  • Abstract:
    The District of Columbia Emergency Highway Relief Act provided a temporary waiver of the matching share requirement for funds expended for eligible federal-aid highway projects from August 4, 1995, through September 30, 1996. The act requires the District to establish a dedicated highway fund to repay the temporarily waived amounts and make future matching share payments and requires that the General Accounting Office (GAO) annually audit and report on the financial condition and operations of the highway fund. This GAO report addresses (1) the extent to which the District took advantage of the opportunity for the federal government to pay 100% of eligible projects' costs expended during the waiver period, (2) whether the District's efforts to streamline its contract award process have reduced the time frames to process and execute federal-aid highway contracts, and (3) the status of the District's efforts to implement the Federal Highway Administration's recommendations for improving the District of Columbia Department of Public Works' capabilities to carry out its federal-aid highway program.
