Sec. 661.9  How will the bridge project be funded/programmed once eligibility has been determined?

    (a) Funding and/or programming of construction projects for IRR 
bridges would be based on the order of receipt of a complete application 
package, i.e., eligibility requirements met, PS&E package is complete, 
etc. All application packages would be placed in a queue upon submission 
to the BIADOT and date stamped. This submission queue would form the 
basis for prioritization during any fiscal year (FY). After the queue 
for the FY is filled up, that is, the IRRBP funding is used up, a queue 
for the following FY would be established.
    (b) In those cases where application packages have arrived at the 
same time, application packages would be ranked and prioritized based on 
the following criteria:
    (1) Bridge sufficiency rating (SR);
    (2) Bridge status with structurally deficient (SD) having precedence 
over functionally obsolete (FO);
    (3) Bridges on school bus routes;
    (4) Detour length;
    (5) Average daily traffic; and
    (6) Truck average daily traffic.
