FY 2010 Budget
Federal construction projects are funded through a two-step process: authorization and appropriation. Whereas authorizations provide the authority and parameters for federal spending, no construction projects break ground without spending first being made available to federal agencies through the annual appropriations process. Currently, approximately $127 billion is appropriated annually throughout 12 spending bills. While nearly 40-50 percent of that amount is transportation-related spending, most of the remaining funds support facility construction and maintenance to support the range of government functions. The Federal government is currently operating under a Continuing Resolution that is funding the government operations at FY 2010 levels. The chart below shows list the federal construction accounts, their 2010 appropriated levels and the Administration's budget request for fiscal years 2011 and 2012. AGC supports overall programmatic increases in federal construction accounts that keep pace with inflation and meet the nation's growing public works needs.
