All projects will be programmed for funding after a completed application package is received and accepted by the FHWA. At that time, the project will be acknowledged as either BIA and Tribally owned, or non-BIA owned and placed in either a PE or a construction queue.

All projects will be ranked and prioritized based on the following criteria:

Bridge sufficiency rating (SR);

Bridge status with structurally deficient (SD) having precedence over functionally obsolete (FO);

Bridges on school bus routes;

Detour length;

Average daily traffic; and

Truck average daily traffic.

Queues will carryover from fiscal year to fiscal year as made necessary by the amount of annual funding made available.
