Before Jan. 1, 2017 the record is one snapshot per annual CFR edition, revised as of October 1. This is the 1996 edition's wording. An amendment that took effect between Oct. 1, 1997 and Oct. 1, 1997 would not appear until the next edition, so check the citations below and the Federal Register for exact effective dates. govinfo does not publish the 1997 edition of Parts 300–399 in machine-readable form, so the 1996 text is shown for that year.

The Federal Highway Administration has regional offices, commonly referred to as Regional Administrations, which are numerically identified as Regions 1 and 3 through 10. Each regional office has jurisdiction over a geographical area consisting of a designated group of States. Each regional office is headed by a Regional Federal Highway Administrator (commonly called the Regional Administrator for ease of reference), who is assisted by a regional headquarters staff of legal, administrative, and program specialists, and who is responsible for directing at local levels the Federal Highway Administration responsibilities for administration of the direct Federal, Federal-aid, and other highway and traffic safety programs.
