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
continuously designated in writing a qualified individual to work actively on or to
directly oversee the Project.
The expected cash contributions from the federal government, the State, the
Local Government, or other parties are shown in Attachment B. The State will
pay for only those Project costs that have been approved by the Texas
Transportation Commission. For projects with federal funds, the State and the
federal government will not reimburse the Local Government for any work
performed before the federal spending authority is formally obligated to the
Project by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). After federal funds have
been obligated, the State will send to the Local Government a copy of the formal
documentation showing the obligation oflfunds including federal award
information. The Local Government is responsible for 100% of the cost of any
work performed under its direction or control before the federal spending
authority is formally obligated.
Attachment B shows, by major cost categories, the cost estimates and the party
responsible for performing the work for each category. These categories may
include but are not limited to: (1) costs of real property; (2) costs of utility work;
(3) costs of environmental assessment and remediation; (4) cost of preliminary
engineering and design; (5) cost of construction and construction management;
and (6) any other local project costs.
The State will be responsible for securing the federal and State share of the
funding required for the development and construction of the local Project. If the
Local Government is due funds for expenses incurred, these funds will be
reimbursed to the Local Government on a cost basis.
The Local Government will be responsible for all non-federal or non -State
participation costs associated with the Project, unless otherwise provided for in
this Agreement or approved otherwise in an amendment to this Agreement. For
items of work subject to specified percentage funding, the Local Government
shall only in those instances be responsible for all Project costs that are greater
than the maximum State and federal participation specified in Attachment B and
for overruns in excess of the amount specified in Attachment B to be paid by the
Local Government.
The budget in Attachment B will clearly state all items subject to fixed price
funding, specified percentage funding, and the periodic payment schedule, when
periodic payments have been approved by the State.
When the Local Government bears the responsibility for paying cost overruns,
the Local Government shall make payment to the State within thirty (30) days
from the receipt of the State's written notification of additional funds being due.
When fixed price funding is used, the Local Government is responsible for the
fixed price amount specified in Attachment B. Fixed prices are not subject to
adjustment unless (1) differing site conditions are encountered; (2) further
definition of the Local Government's requested scope of work identifies greatly
differing costs from those estimated; (3) work requested by the Local

Government is determined to be ineligible for federal participation; or (4) the
adjustment is mutually agreed to by the State and the Local Government.
I. 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 B. At a
minimum, this amount shall equal the Local Government's funding share for the
estimated cost of preliminary engineering performed or reviewed by the State 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 cost.
J. The State will not execute the contract for the construction of the Project until the
required funding has been made available by the Local Government in
accordance with this Agreement.
K. 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" or may use the State's Automated
Clearing House (ACH) system for electronic transfer of funds in accordance with
instructions provided by TxDOT's Finance Division. The funds shall be deposited
and managed by the State and may only be applied by the State to the Project.
L. The State will not pay interest on any funds provided by the Local Government.
M. If a waiver for the collection of indirect costs for a service project has been
granted under 43 TAC §15.56, the State will not charge the Local Government
for the indirect costs the State incurs on the Project, unless this Agreement is
terminated at the request of the Local Government prior to completion of the
Project.
N. If the Local Government is an Economically Disadvantaged County (EDC) and if
the State has approved adjustments to the standard financing arrangement, this
Agreement reflects those adjustments.
O. Where the Local Government is authorized to perform services under this
Agreement and be reimbursed by the State, the Local Government is authorized
to submit requests for reimbursement by submitting the original of an itemized
invoice, in a form and containing all items required by the State, no more
frequently than monthly and no later than ninety (90) days after costs are
incurred. If the Local Government submits invoices more than ninety (90) days
after the costs are incurred and if federal funding is reduced as a result, the State
shall have no responsibility to reimburse the Local Government for those costs.
P. Upon completion of the Project, the State will perform a final accounting of the
Project costs for all items of work with specified percentage funding. Any funds
due by the Local Government, the State, or the federal government for these
work items will be promptly paid by the owing party.
Q. The state auditor may conduct an audit or investigation of any entity receiving
funds from the State directly under this Agreement or indirectly through a
subcontract under this Agreement. Acceptance of funds directly under this
Agreement or indirectly through a subcontract under this Agreement 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. An entity that is the subject of an audit or investigation must provide

preliminary engineering, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) and the Project
does not proceed because of insufficient funds, in which case the Local
Government agrees to reimburse the State for its reasonable actual costs
incurred during the Project; or
D. The Agreement is terminated by the State because the parties are not able to
execute a mutually agreeable amendment when the costs for Local Government
requested items increase significantly due to differing site conditions,
determination that Local government requested work is ineligible for federal or
state cost participation, or a more thorough definition of the Local Government's
proposed work scope identifies greatly differing costs from those estimated. The
State will reimburse Local Government remaining funds to the Local Government
within ninety (90) days of termination; or
E. The Project is inactive for thirty-six (36) consecutive months or longer and no
expenditures have been charged against federal funds, in which case the State
may in its discretion terminate this Agreement.
6. Amendments
Amendments to this Agreement due to changes in the character of the work, terms of
the Agreement, or responsibilities of the parties relating to the Project may be enacted
through a mutually agreed upon, written amendment.

than the maximum State and federal participation specified in Attachment B and
for overruns in excess of the amount specified in Attachment B to be paid by the
Local Government.
F. The budget in Attachment B will clearly state all items subject to fixed price
funding, specified percentage funding, and the periodic payment schedule, when
periodic payments have been approved by the State.
G. When the Local Government bears the responsibility for paying cost overruns,
the Local Government shall make payment to the State within thirty (30) days
from the receipt of the State's written notification of additional funds being due.
H. When fixed price funding is used, the Local Government is responsible for the
fixed price amount specified in Attachment B. Fixed prices are not subject to
adjustment unless (1) differing site conditions are encountered; (2) further
