The “SRMC Available” amount listed above is the total amount that is available for the lifespan of the project and is based on the current approved Total Project Costs. The SRMC Available amount is subject to change based on cost underruns or cost overruns or property withdrawals. Properties that are withdrawn from the project after award will lessen the overall SRMC Available amount. Because of the variable nature of SRMC, the County should not rely on any fixed amount of SRMC being available for reimbursement
