PART 140_REIMBURSEMENT--Table of Contents
 
                Subpart I_Reimbursement for Railroad Work
 
Sec. 140.912  Transportation.

    (a) Employees. The company's cost of necessary employee 
transportation and subsistence directly attributable to the project, 
which is consistent with overall policy of the company, is reimbursable.
    (b) Materials, supplies, and equipment. The most economical movement 
of materials, supplies and equipment to the project and necessary return 
to storage, including the associated costs of loading and unloading 
equipment, is reimbursable. Transportation by a railroad company over 
its own lines in a revenue train is reimbursable at average or actual 
costs, at rates which are representative of actual costs, or at rates 
which the company charges its customers for similar shipments provided 
the rate structure is documented and available to the public. These 
rates are to be agreed to by the company, SHA, and FHWA. No charge will 
be made for transportation by work train other than the operating 
expenses of the work train. When it is more practicable or more 
economical to move equipment on its own wheels, reimbursement may be 
made at average or actual costs or at rates which are representative of 
actual costs and are agreed to by the railroad, SHA, and FHWA.
