1、388 23 CFR Ch. I (4111 Edition) 710.705 710.705 Applicability. This subpart applies to all concession agreements involving federally funded highways that are executed after Janu-ary 18, 2009. 710.707 Fair market value. A highway agency shall receive fair market value for any concession agree-ment in
2、volving a federally funded high-way. 710.709 Determination of fair market value. (a) Fair market value may be deter-mined either on a best value basis, highest net present value of the pay-ments to be received over the life of the agreement, or highest bid received, as may be specified by the highwa
3、y agency in the request for proposals or other relevant solicitation. If best value is used, the highway agency should identify, in the relevant solici-tation, the criteria to be used as well as the weight afforded to the criteria. (b) In order to be considered fair mar-ket value, the terms of the c
4、oncession agreement must be both legally bind-ing and enforceable. (c) Any concession agreement award-ed pursuant to a competitive process with more than one bidder shall be deemed to be fair market value. Any concession agreement awarded pursu-ant to a competitive process with only one bidder shall
5、 be presumed to be fair market value. Such presumption may be overcome only if the highway agen-cy determines the proposal to not be fair market value based on the high-way agencys estimates. Nothing in this subpart shall be construed to re-quire a highway agency to accept any proposal, even if the
6、proposal is deemed fair market value. For pur-poses of this subsection, a competitive process shall afford all interested pro-posers an equal opportunity to submit a proposal for the concession agree-ment and shall comply with applicable State and local law. (d) If a concession agreement is not awar
7、ded pursuant to a competitive process, the highway agency must re-ceive fair market value, as determined by the highway agency in accordance with State law, so long as an inde-pendent third party assessment is con-ducted and made publicly available. (e) Nothing in this subpart is in-tended to waive
8、the requirements of part 172, part 635, and part 636 when-ever any Federal-aid (including TIFIA assistance) is to be used for a project under the concession agreement.
