set DBE goals on individual solicitations. Nonetheless, the ARRC aspires to achieve an overall

DBE participation of 4.0% in federal fiscal years 2025-2027 on contracts funded by agencies

within the U.S. Department of Transportation. If this contract is funded in whole or in part by funds

from the FTA, FEMA or the FHWA, it is imperative that you consult the Federal Terms and

Conditions portion of this solicitation.
