Sec. 810.308  Approval of urban system nonhighway public mass transit 
projects.

    (a) An urban system public mass transit project may be approved by 
the UMTA Administrator when it is determined that:
    (1) The application and project are in accordance with the current 
UMTA procedures relating to discretionary capital assistance grants; and
    (2) Notification has been received from the FHWA Administrator that 
sufficient apportioned Federal-aid urban system funds are available to 
finance the Federal share of the cost of the proposed project.
    (b) Approval of the plans, specifications, and estimates of a 
nonhighway public mass transit project shall be deemed to occur on the 
date the UMTA Administrator approves the project application. This 
approval which is subject to the availability of obligation authority at 
the time of approval, will obligate the United States to pay its 
proportional share of the cost of the project.
    (c) Upon approval of an urban system nonhighway public mass transit 
project, the UMTA Administrator will execute a grant contract covering 
implementation of the project.
