and completed within such established time periods for review;
or
(ii) may enter into an agreement to establish such time
periods for review with respect to a class of project; and
(B) shall ensure, in establishing such time periods for
review, that the conduct of any such analysis, review, opinion,
and decision is undertaken concurrently with all other
environmental reviews for the project, including the reviews
required by the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.); except that such review may not be
concurrent if the affected Federal agency can demonstrate that
such concurrent review would result in a significant adverse
impact to the environment or substantively alter the operation
of Federal law or would not be possible without information
developed as part of the environmental review process.
(3) Factors to be considered.--Time periods for review
established under this section shall be consistent with the time
periods established by the Council on Environmental Quality under
sections 1501.8 and 1506.10 of title 40, Code of Federal
Regulations.

for review under this section if, upon good cause shown, the
Secretary and any Federal agency concerned determine that
additional time for analysis and review is needed as a result of
new information that has been discovered that could not reasonably
have been anticipated when the Federal agency's time periods for
review were established. Any memorandum of understanding shall be
modified to incorporate any mutually agreed-upon extensions.
(c) Dispute Resolution.--When the Secretary determines that a
Federal agency which is subject to a time period for its environmental
review or analysis under this section has failed to complete such
review, analysis, opinion, or decision on issuing any permit, license,
or approval within the established time period or within any agreed-
upon extension to such time period, the Secretary may, after notice and
consultation with such agency, close the record on the matter before
the Secretary. If the Secretary finds, after timely compliance with
this section, that an environmental issue related to the project that
an affected Federal agency has jurisdiction over by operation of
Federal law has not been resolved, the Secretary and the head of the
Federal agency shall resolve the matter not later than 30 days after
the date of the finding by the Secretary.
(d) Participation of State Agencies.--For any project eligible for
assistance under chapter 1 of title 23, United States Code, a State, by

jurisdiction by State or Federal law over environmental-related issues
that may be affected by the project, or that are required to issue any
environmental-related reviews, analyses, opinions, or determinations on
issuing any permits, licenses, or approvals for the project, be subject
to the coordinated environmental review process established under this
section unless the Secretary determines that a State's participation
would not be in the public interest. For a State to require State
agencies to participate in the review process, all affected agencies of
the State shall be subject to the review process.
(e) Assistance to Affected Federal Agencies.--
(1) In general.--The Secretary may approve a request by a State
to provide funds made available under chapter 1 of title 23, United

Subtitle E--Finance
CHAPTER 1--TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCE AND INNOVATION
SEC. 1501. SHORT TITLE.
This chapter may be cited as the ``Transportation Infrastructure
Finance and Innovation Act of 1998''.
SEC. 1502. FINDINGS.
Congress finds that--
(1) a well-developed system of transportation infrastructure is
critical to the economic well-being, health, and welfare of the
people of the United States;
(2) traditional public funding techniques such as grant
programs are unable to keep pace with the infrastructure investment
needs of the United States because of budgetary constraints at the
Federal, State, and local levels of government;
(3) major transportation infrastructure facilities that address
critical national needs, such as intermodal facilities, border
crossings, and multistate trade corridors, are of a scale that
exceeds the capacity of Federal and State assistance programs in
effect on the date of enactment of this Act;
(4) new investment capital can be attracted to infrastructure
projects that are capable of generating their own revenue streams
through user charges or other dedicated funding sources; and
(5) a Federal credit program for projects of national
significance can complement existing funding resources by filling
market gaps, thereby leveraging substantial private co-investment.
