before the issuance of a formal Letter of Authority by the Federal Highway Administration.
The Local Government is responsible for 100% of the cost of any work performed under its
direction or control before the federal Letter of Authority is formally issued.
If the Local Government will perform any work under this contract for which reimbursement will
be provided by or through the State, the Local Government must complete training before a
letter of authority is issued. Training is complete when at least one individual who is working
actively and directly on the Project successfully completes and receives a certificate for the
course entitled Local Government Project Procedures Qualification for the Texas Department
of Transportation. The Local Government shall provide the certificate of qualification to the
State. The individual who receives the training certificate may be an employee of the Local
Government or an employee of a firm that has been contracted by the Local Government to
perform oversight of the Project. The State in its discretion may deny reimbursement if the
Local Government has not designated a qualified individual to oversee the Project.
b. A Source of Funds estimate is also provided in Attachment C. Attachment C shows the
percentage and absolute dollar amount to be contributed to the project by federal, state, and
local sources.
c. The Local Government is responsible for all non-federal and non-state funding, including all
project cost overruns, unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement or through amendment
of this agreement.
d. Prior to the performance of any engineering review work by the State, the Local Government
will pay to the State the amount specified in Attachment C. At a minimum, this amount shall
equal the Local Government's funding share for the estimated cost of preliminary engineering
review for the project. At least sixty (60) days prior to the date set for receipt of the
construction bids, the Local Government shall remit its remaining financial share for the
State's estimated construction oversight and construction costs.
e. In the event that the State determines that additional funding by the Local Government is
required at any time during the Project, the State will notify the Local Government in writing.
The Local Government shall make payment to the State within thirty (30) days from receipt of
the State's written notification.

CFDA#20.205
f. Whenever funds are paid by the Local Government to the State under this Agreement, the
Local Government shall remit a check or warrant made payable to the "Texas Department of
Transportation Trust Fund." The check or warrant shall be deposited by the State in an
escrow account to be managed by the State. Funds in the escrow account may only be
applied by the State to the Project. If, after final Project accounting, excess funds remain in
the escrow account, those funds may be applied by the State to the Local Government's
contractual obligations to the State under another advance funding agreement.
g. If any existing or future local ordinances, commissioners court orders, rules, policies, or other
directives, including but not limited to outdoor advertising billboards and storm water drainage
facility requirements, are more restrictive than State or Federal Regulations, or if any other
locally proposed changes, including but not limited to plats or replats, result in increased costs,
then any increased costs associated with the ordinances or changes will be paid by the local
government. The cost of providing right of way acquired by the State shall mean the total
expenses in acquiring the property interests either through negotiations or eminent domain
proceedings, including but not limited to expenses related to relocation, removal, and
adjustment of eligible utilities.
h. The state auditor may conduct an audit or investigation of any entity receiving funds from the
state directly under the contract or indirectly through a subcontract under the contract.
Acceptance of funds directly under the contract or indirectly through a subcontract under this
contract acts as acceptance of the authority of the state auditor, under the direction of the
legislative audit committee, to conduct an audit or investigation in connection with those funds.
Any entity that is the subject of an audit or investigation must provide the state auditor with
access to any information the state auditor considers relevant to the investigation or audit.
i. Whenever American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 ARRA funds are used and the
Local Government is performing any work, either directly or through a contractor, it must
comply with the following provisions. If a Local Government is receiving ARRA funds, but is
not performing any work, the following provisions apply, if appropriate, and to the extent
necessary to comply with ARRA regulations.
In accordance with Section 902 of the ARRA, should this agreement involve the expenditure of
ARRA funds, then the U.S. Comptroller General and its representatives shall have the
authority to:
a. examine any records of the contractor or any of its subcontractors, or any State or local
agency administering such contract, that directly pertain to, and involve transactions
relating to the contract or subcontract; and
b. interview any officer or employee of the contractor or any of its subcontractors, or any State
or local agency administering the contract regarding such contracts.
Nothing in the section previously mentioned shall be interpreted to limit or restrict in any way
the existing authority of the Comptroller General.
In accordance with Section 1515(a) of the ARRA, with respect to each contract or grant
awarded using covered funds, any representative of an appropriate inspector general
appointed under Section 3 or 8G of the Inspector General Act of 1978 (5 U.S.C. App.), is
authorized:
a. to examine any records of the contractor or grantee, any of its subcontractors or
subgrantees, or any State or local agency administering such contract that pertain to
and involve transactions relating to the contract, subcontract, grant, or subgrant; and

b. to interview any officer or employee of the contractor, grantee or subgrantee, or agency
regarding such transactions.
Section 1515(b) further provides that nothing in the section previously mentioned shall be
interpreted to limit or restrict in any way the existing authority of an inspector general.
The ARRA requires that the Contractor report monthly employment information for its firm as
well as that of all of its subcontractors. The Contractor, similarly, shall include this reporting
requirement in all of its subcontracts. Failing to include the requirement in agreements with
subcontractors can serve as grounds for contract termination.
Form FHWA-1589, Monthly Employment Report, promulgated by the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA), captures the necessary monthly employment information and shall be
submitted by the Contractor on a regular basis to the LG (Local Government). It is the
responsibility of the LG to obtain this form from the prime Contractor and any subcontractors
and, the LG shall verify the accuracy, completeness, and reasonableness of the data
contained in the form. The LG shall ensure that this form is submitted by the LG to the State
according to the policies and at the direction of the State.
In order to meet any other FHWA and ARRA reporting requirements, the LG shall provide to
the State all information requested by the State, including data or information in possession of
contractors and subcontractors for completing other necessary reporting forms, and the
information shall be submitted in the manner required and according to all due dates as set by
the State.
j. Whenever funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) are
distributed to a Local Government, the Local Government must complete its Schedule of
Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) and the Data Collection Form (SF-SAC), as required
by OMB Circular A-133, and separately identify any ARRA expenditures for Federal Awards.
k. Payment under this contract beyond the end of the current fiscal biennium is subject to
availability of appropriated funds. If funds are not appropriated, this contract shall be
terminated immediately with no liability to either party.
13. Document and Information Exchange. The Local Government agrees to electronically deliver to
the State all general notes, specifications, contract provision requirements and related
documentation in a Microsoft® Word or similar document. If requested by the State, the Local
Government will use the State's document template. The Local Government shall also provide a
detailed construction time estimate including types of activities and month in the format required
by the State. This requirement applies whether the Local Government creates the documents
with its own forces or by hiring a consultant or professional provider. At the request of the State,
the Local Government shall submit any information required by the State in the format directed by
the State.
14. Incorporation of Master Agreement Provisions. This LPAFA incorporates all of the governing
provisions of the Master Advance Funding Agreement (MAFA) in effect on the date of final
execution of this LPAFA, unless such MAFA provision is specifically excepted herein.
15. Insurance. If this agreement authorizes the Local Government or its contractor to perform any
work on State right of way, before beginning work the entity performing the work shall provide the
State with a fully executed copy of the State's Form 1560 Certificate of Insurance verifying the

the work.
16. Signatory Warranty. The signatories to this agreement warrant that each has the authority to enter
into this agreement on behalf of the party represented.

that is debarred or suspended or otherwise excluded from or ineligible for participation in Federal
Assistance Programs under Executive Order 12549, "Debarment and Suspension." By executing
this agreement, the [Contractor, Local Government, Engineer, or whatever] certifies that it is not
currently debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from or ineligible for participation in Federal
Assistance Programs under Executive Order 12549. The parties to this contract shall require any
