 CHAPTER II--NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION AND FEDERAL 
          HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
 
PART 1206--RULES OF PROCEDURE FOR INVOKING SANCTIONS UNDER THE HIGHWAY SAFETY ACT OF 1966--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 1206.4  Sanctions.

    (a) The Administrators shall not apportion any funds under 23 U.S.C. 
402 to any State which is not implementing a highway safety program.
    (b) If the Administrators have apportioned funds to a State and 
subsequently determine that the State is not implementing a highway 
safety program, the Administrators shall reduce the funds apportioned 
under 23 U.S.C. 402 to the State by amounts equal to not less than 50 
per centum, until such time as the Administrators determine that the 
State is implementing a highway safety program.
    (c) The Administrators shall consider the gravity of the State's 
failure to implement a highway safety program in determining the amount 
of the reduction.
    (d) If the Administrators determine that a State has begun 
implementing a highway safety program before the end of the fiscal year 
for which the funds were withheld, they shall promptly apportion to the 
State the funds withheld from its apportionment.
    (e) If the Administrators determine that the State did not correct 
its failure before the end of the fiscal year for which the funds were 
withheld, the Administrators shall reapportion the withheld funds to the 
other States, in accordance with the formula specified in 23 U.S.C. 
402(c), not later than 30 days after such determination.
