Pursuant to N.J.A.C. 16:20A-4.2(a), failure to award construction or other approved contracts for 100 percent of a county's allotment within three years of notification by the Department of that year's allotment shall result in the allotment being immediately rescinded or the funds returned to the Department, as applicable. In the event that the funds are not immediately returned, the Department will make deductions from future allocations of aid to that county. Any of those funds may be reallocated by the Commissioner to other transportation projects, as the Commissioner shall so determine.
