To be eligible for this reimbursement, the project must be located in a National Register Historic District and on the National Highway System and may not increase the department's cost or liability in complying with the National Historic Preservation Act, 16 United States Code, Sections 470 to 470x-6 (2005) or with 49 United States Code, Section 303 (2005).
