Federal-Aid Reimbursement Eligibility & Bid Item Use
On July 9, 2025, the FHWA Office of Safety Technologies issued an Eligibility Letter assigning control number CC-184 to the SGET End Terminal. This designation means state and local transportation agencies using Federal-Aid highway funding may seek reimbursement for SGET installations on federally funded projects.
The SGET is appropriate for any project specifying a MASH TL-3 compliant tangent gating end terminal. State DOTs that have not yet listed the SGET on a state-level QPL/APL can still procure it on Federal-Aid projects under the FHWA eligibility letter, subject to state acceptance procedures.
For bid item language, project specifiers can reference: “Tangent gating end terminal, MASH TL-3 compliant, FHWA Eligibility Letter CC-184, or approved equal.”
State DOT Approval & QPL Questions
What is a Qualified Products List (QPL)?
A Qualified Products List (QPL) is a state DOT-maintained list of materials and products that have been pre-evaluated and accepted for use on DOT-funded projects. Different states use different names — QPL, APL (Approved Products List), AML (Approved Materials List), MPL (Materials Producer List), or Bulletin (such as PennDOT’s Bulletin 15). The function is the same: products on the list can be specified or supplied without re-qualification on each project.
Is the SGET on the WSDOT Approved Materials List?
Yes. The SGET End Terminal is approved by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Materials Laboratory and is listed on the WSDOT Approved Materials List. Download the WSDOT approval letter from the table above.
Is the SGET on the Idaho ITD QPL?
Yes. The SGET is approved by the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) and listed on the Idaho QPL. The ITD approval letter is available for download in the state table above.
Can the SGET be used on Federal-Aid projects in states not listed?
Yes. The SGET carries FHWA Eligibility Letter CC-184 and is Federal-Aid Reimbursement Eligible nationwide. State DOTs that have not yet evaluated the SGET on a state-level QPL/APL may still allow its use on Federal-Aid projects subject to state acceptance procedures.

What testing standards does the SGET meet?
The SGET End Terminal was crash-tested by Applus IDIADA KARCO Engineering under the AASHTO Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware (MASH), Test Level 3. The full battery of MASH TL-3 tests (3-30 through 3-37) was completed, and results were submitted to the FHWA for eligibility review, resulting in Eligibility Letter CC-184.

Contact us with your project state and we’ll send the relevant package within one business day.
Does SPIG Industry pursue new state approvals?
