| Fiscal Detail and Notes | |||||||||
| Allowing the Department of Transportation to reimburse public utilities for relocation costs in certain circumstances will have no net impact on Highway Fund costs because the Highway Fund will be reimbursed by certain federal funds. In any case where the department has utilized federal funds to reimburse the Highway Fund for utility relocation costs, the amount of federal funds used for reimbursement purposes will not be available for other highway and bridge related projects. | |||||||||
