in the relief funding management challenges report that we identified for the department of transportation last year, we also recognized several of the other oversight challenges and the challenges that transit agencies will face with these funds. one is that there is an interesting hybrid here of providing funds through an existing program, but providing them for new purposes in terms of the operating expenses and the 100% federal share of those operating expenses. we look forward in our work to examining how the oversight, how the expenditures work, given that new purpose within an existing program. the other challenge we highlight is monitoring funding and fta's past reliance in many cases on either self certification by transit agencies of their compliance with eligibility and funding conditions, as well as the reliance on oversight contractors, oversight support personnel who can be contractors, who of course are a valuable and important resource. as it has with hurricane relief funding in the past, with the funding a decade ago. ensuring that those support personnel are properly trai
