                Highways less the aggregate of amounts not distributed 
                under paragraphs (1) and (2), bears to
                    (B) the total of the sums authorized to be 
                appropriated for Federal-aid highways and highway safety 
                construction

[[Page 115 STAT. 856]]

                programs (other than sums authorized to be appropriated 
                for sections set forth in paragraphs (1) through (7) of 
                subsection (b) and sums authorized to be appropriated

                distributed under paragraph (1) of this subsection;

        for such fiscal year under section 105 of title 23, United 
        States Code (relating to minimum guarantee) so that the amount 
        of obligation authority available for each of such sections is

        105, $2,000,000,000) for such fiscal year;
            (5) distribute the obligation limitation provided for

        Secretary under title 23, United States Code (other than 
        activities to which paragraph (1) applies and programs to which 
        paragraph (4) applies) by multiplying the ratio determined under 
        paragraph (3) by the sums authorized to be appropriated for such 
        program for such fiscal year; and
            (6) distribute the obligation limitation provided for

        under paragraphs (1) and (2) and amounts distributed under 
        paragraphs (4) and (5) for Federal-aid highways and highway 
        safety construction programs (other than the minimum guarantee 
        program, but only to the extent that amounts apportioned for the 
        minimum guarantee program for such fiscal year exceed 
        $2,639,000,000, and the Appalachian development highway system 
        program) that are apportioned by the Secretary under title 23, 
        United States Code, in the ratio that--
                    (A) sums authorized to be appropriated for such 
                programs that are apportioned to each State for such 
                fiscal year, bear to

year).
    (c) Redistribution of Unused Obligation Authority.--Notwithstanding 
subsection (a), the Secretary shall after August 1 for such fiscal year

during that fiscal year and redistribute sufficient amounts to those
