Final rule.

Through this final rule the FHWA will remove several regulations that have been superseded by legislation. We are removing sections related to construction engineering costs, administration of Direct Federal Construction Contracts, Interstate maintenance guidance, and the Certification Acceptance program. The changes reflect applicable provisions of title 23, United States Code, as amended by legislation, and avoid any possible redundancy or conflict with other regulations.
