I. Overview
Congress enacted an extension of FTA's current authorization, the
Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity Act: A
Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), through September 30, 2011 in the
Surface Transportation Extension Act, 2011 (Pub. L. 112-5). Since that
time, Congress has also enacted the Department of Defense and Full-Year
Continuing Appropriations Act, 2011 (Pub. L. 112-10), hereinafter
``Appropriations Act, 2011,'' which sets an obligation limitation for
Formula and Bus programs and funds other Federal transit programs of
DOT through September 30, 2011. This Notice provides the remaining
formula funds and full year appropriations for FTA discretionary
programs.
[[Page 29292]]
II. FY 2011 Available Funding for FTA Programs
A. Funding Based on the Department of Defense and Full-Year Continuing
Appropriations Act, 2011 (Pub. L. 112-10)
The Appropriations Act, 2011 included a total of almost $10.3
billion for FTA programs in obligation limitation of contract authority
under the Mass Transit account (MTA) and new appropriations of general
funds.
In addition, in FY 2010, Congress appropriated an obligation
limitation for the Formula and Bus programs that was slightly lower
than the FY 2010 authorized contract authority for those programs
creating a $17.39 million difference in FY 2010. This additional
contract authority is now available and this Notice apportions these FY
2010 funds to the Formula and Bus programs in addition to the FY 2011
full year apportionment. See Section II of FTA's Supplemental Fiscal
Year 2010 Apportionments and Allocations Federal Register Notice (FR
May 13, 2010 Vol. 75, No. 92) for detailed information.
New FY 2011 funding levels also reflect a $17.39 million difference
between the authorized contract authority level and appropriated
obligation limitation for Formula and Bus programs.
For other programs, a .2 percent across-the-board rescission for
appropriated funds applies as well. The rescission was applied to the
budget authority provided for fiscal year 2011 for any discretionary
account and the budget authority provided in any advance appropriation
for fiscal year 2011 for discretionary accounts in any prior fiscal
year appropriation Act. The rescission, however, does not affect
contract authority or obligation limitation for Formula and Bus
programs.
B. Morgantown, West Virginia Technical Correction
In the course of preparing FTA's Fiscal Year 2010 supplemental
apportionment tables, the fixed guideway direct route miles and vehicle
revenue miles associated with the Morgantown, West Virginia urbanized
area were inadvertently included in its Section 5307 Urbanized Area
Formula program calculations. The resulting Section 5307 apportionment
table published in FTA's Supplemental Fiscal Year 2010 Apportionments
and Allocations Federal Register Notice (FR May 13, 2010 Vol. 75, No.
92) displayed an allotment for the Morgantown, WV urbanized area that
was $751,158 in excess of what the urbanized area should have received
under the Section 5307 formula. FTA corrected the Morgantown
apportionment record in its grants systems to limit Morgantown's
allocation to what should have been received in FY 2010. With the
publication of this notice, FTA apportions the $751,158 to those
urbanized areas eligible to receive funds under the Fixed Guideway Tier
of the Section 5307 program, in proportion to the formula factors of
the Fixed Guideway Tier.
C. FY 2011 Discretionary Program Funds
The Appropriations Act, 2011 did not include any project specific
Congressional designations. Accordingly, FTA has $2.73 billion in
discretionary funds available for allocation. It is FTA's intent to
publish Notices of Funding Availability (NOFA) for most discretionary
programs no later than early Fall 2011. The Major Capital Investment
program, commonly referred to as the New Starts and Small Starts
programs, will be excluded because the program has an ongoing project
development and review process, and funding will be allocated
consistent with information already available to FTA. Additionally, FTA
plans to consolidate multiple programs into single discretionary
solicitations of proposals that further specific Department of
Transportation Strategic Goals, consistent with the approach used for
FY 2010 funds.
Issued in Washington, DC, this 13th day of May, 2011.
Peter Rogoff,
Administrator.
