- amends ← An amendment to provide that a state will receive an amount equal to at least 85 percent of the amount of money its motorists contribute to the Highway Trust Fund (other than the Mass Transit Account).
- amends ← An amendment to require that all of the funds, instead of 25 percent, provided for substitute transit projects, shall be distributed by the Secretary. The amendment thus eliminates the role of Congress, specified in the bill, for allocation of the funds.
- amends ← An amendment to require the study of the cost effectiveness of hot dip galvanizing for installations, repair, or replacement of exposed structural and miscellaneous steel.
- amends ← An amendment to require that 10 percent of the funds provided in the bill be directed to small business concerns owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals.
- amends ← An amendment to change the name of section 150 from "Advancement of Non-federal Share" to "Temporary Matching Fund Waiver", and reduces the time period for the waiver by one year to 1983. The amendment requires the Secretary of Transportation to establish regulations under which a state certifies it cannot match funds. It also strikes the requirement that funds for maintenance and interstate resurfacing are not to be paid until such waivers are repaid, but provides mechanism for withdrawing funds from the states sources of highway revenues to repay the advanced funds.
