Missouri LTAP in partnership with the Missouri Department of Transportation and FHWA, Missouri division presents:
FHWA Emergency Relief Overview Webinar
When disaster strikes, the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Emergency Relief, or ER, program can help State and local agencies fund repairs to roads, bridges, and other infrastructure eligible for Federal-aid. FHWA wants you to understand the ER program so that your agency is quickly reimbursed for work to restore critical transportation for the public.
Congress authorized in Title 23, United States Code, Section 125, a special program from the Highway Trust Fund for the repair or reconstruction of Federal-aid highways and roads on Federal lands which have suffered serious damage as a result of (1) natural disasters or (2) catastrophic failures from an external cause. This program, commonly referred to as the emergency relief or ER program, supplements the commitment of resources by States, their political subdivisions, or other Federal agencies to help pay for unusually heavy expenses resulting from extraordinary conditions.
MoDOT is happy to partner with the FHWA Resource Center to provide a two-hour training session titled FHWA Emergency Relief Overview. The training will be held virtually on May 19, 2022, from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. To register, please visit this link:
