Positive numbers in table indicate spending, negative numbers indicate savings or revenue. Maximum amount is taken from CBO's calculation of budget authority over the 2009-2019 period. Deficit impact is taken from CBO's deficit impact calculation for 2009-2019. Amount spent as of 11/3/2012. Individual provisions may include some smaller specific measures not directly related to infrastructure spending, but these items do not significantly alter total figures.
