Undetermined current biennium cost increase - Highway Fund
Fiscal Detail and Notes
The increase in the number of highway projects that are eligible for a noise abatement project is likely to increase Highway Fund costs of the Department of Transportation.  The amounts will  depend on the number of eligible projects and the circumstances of each eligible project and can not be determined at this time.  In addition, establishing an inflation figure for the cost limit for eligible noise abatement projects is also likely to increase Highway Fund costs of the department.  The amounts are also subject to the factors cited above and can not be determined at this time.
