CERTIFICATION UNDER SECTION 1201

OF THE AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT

Pursuant to Title XII, section 1201 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Pub. L. 111-5(Feb. 17, 2009)) (“ARRA”), I David A. Paterson, the Governor of the State of New York, hereby certify to the Secretary of Transportation that the State of New York will maintain its effort with regard to State funding for the types of projects in DOT “covered programs” funded under ARRA. The enclosure list of DOT “covered programs” identifies the amount of funds the State plans to expend from State sources from February 17, 2009 to September 30, 2010, for the types of projects under the DOT “covered programs” funded under ARRA. In accordance with "Additional Guidance on Section 1201 Certification and Reporting Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009", issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation on April 22, 2009, this certification revises the certification signed on March 19, 2009, to reflect planned expenditures, not obligations or encumbrances.

I understand that if the State of New York is unable to maintain the level of funding identified in this list of the types of projects under the DOT “covered programs” funded under ARRA, the State of New York will thereafter be prohibited by the Secretary of Transportation from receiving additional limitation on obligations for Federal-aid highway and highway safety construction programs that occurs after August 1 for fiscal year 2011.
