The National Infrastructure Investments account reflectsactivity under the TIGER program. TIGER awards grants aswell as TIFIA credit assistance to projects that demonstrate theirability to contribute to the long-term economic competitivenessof the nation, improve the condition of existing transportationfacilities and systems, increase energy efficiency, reduce green-house gas emissions, improve the safety of U.S. transportationfacilities, and/or enhance the quality of living and working envir-onments of communities through increased transportation choicesand connections.

Up-Front Investments.—To spur job growth and allow Statesto initiate sound multi-year investments, the Budget includes a$50 billion boost above current law spending for roads, railwaysand runways. Within the upfront total, the Budget requests $2billion in 2012 for a single round of competitive funding awardsunder the TIGER program.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transport-ation outlays, including the up-front $50 billion, as mandatory,consistent with the recommendations of the President's NationalCommission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, and to alsomove a number of current General Fund programs into theTransportation Trust Fund. The negative figures in this scheduleare necessary to adjust the mandatory budget authority down-ward so that the Budget properly accounts for requested program

As a performance-based organiza-tion, the ATO is designed to provide cost-effective, efficient, and,above all, safe air traffic services. The Budget also funds theAviation Safety Organization (AVS) which ensures the safe oper-ation of the airlines and certifies new aviation products. In addi-tion, the request also funds regulation of the commercial spacetransportation industry, as well as FAA policy oversight andoverall management functions.

The fund provides direct support for the aviation insuranceprogram (chapter 443 of title 49, U.S. Code). Income to the fundis derived from premium collections for premium insurance cov-erage issued, income from authorized investments, and filingfees for non-premium coverage issued. The non-premium programprovides aviation insurance coverage for aircraft used in connec-tion with certain Government contract operations by the Depart-ment of Defense.

The Homeland Security Act of 2002 (P.L. 107–296) added aprovision requiring the Secretary to provide additional federalinsurance coverage (hull loss or damage and passenger and crewliability) to air carriers insured for third-party war risk liabilityon November 25, 2002.

The FAA insurance policy covers: (i) hull losses at agreed value;(ii) death, injury, or property loss to passengers or crew, the

THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2012Federal Aviation Administration—ContinuedFederal Funds—Continued888

limit being the same as the air carrier's commercial coverage asof November 25, 2002; and (iii) third party liability.

Now that commercial underwriters are expressing a strongerinterest in writing a small but limited amount of war risk, theBudget proposes to establish a $150 million deductible for hulland liability exposures in all FAA war risk policies. The Admin-istration's goal is to incentivize the commercial marketplace tounderwrite most but not all aviation war risks.

The Budget proposes to lower funding for the ongoing airportgrants program to $2.4 billion, a reduction of $1.1 billion, byeliminating guaranteed funding for large and medium hub air-ports. The Budget proposal is consistent with the recommendationof the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibilityand Reform to eliminate grants to large and medium hub airports.To assist those airports that need the most help, the Administra-tion proposes to focus Federal grants to support smaller commer-cial and general aviation airports that do not have access to ad-ditional revenue or other outside sources of capital. The Budgetalso proposes to allow large and medium hub airports to increasethe non-Federal Passenger Facility Charge thereby, giving largeand medium hub airports greater flexibility to generate theirown revenue. Eligible airports in all size categories will be ableto compete for an additional $3.1 billion in one-time funding thatwill be made available under the President's infrastructure pro-posal targeted at investments in roads, railways, and runways.

FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATIONThe authorization for Federal surface transportation programs,

SAFETEA-LU, ended on September 30, 2009. To continue high-way, transit, and highway safety programs, Congress has exten-ded the SAFETEA-LU authorities on a short-term basis, mostrecently through March 4, 2011. The Federal Highway Adminis-tration's (FHWA) 2012 Budget request represents a new paradigmin funding our nation's highways. Built on past successes, thenew structure strives to enhance the safety, livability, condition,and efficiency of our nation's highway system. The proposed 2012FHWA Budget will provide the resources necessary for State,local and other Federal transportation agencies to improve thecondition and performance of their highway and roadway system,in ways that protect the environment, provide user access andchoices, and take advantage of advances in technology and innov-ation.

In summary, the 2012 Budget consists of $70,414 million innew budget authority and $51,552 million in outlays. To spur jobgrowth and allow States to initiate sound multi-year investments,the Budget includes a $50 billion boost above current lawspending for roads, railways and runways. Within amounts re-quested for FHWA, $25 billion is to be apportioned to the Statesfor critical highway infrastructure on enhanced National HighwaySystem, $2.2 billion to support significant improvements at landports of entry facilities which link directly to the transportationinfrastructure at border crossing locations, and $450 million toaddress the growing demand for TIFIA credit assistance.

The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1968 authorized the establish-ment of a right-of-way revolving fund. This fund was used tomake cash advances to States for the purpose of purchasing right-of-way parcels in advance of highway construction and therebypreventing the inflation of land prices from significantly increas-ing construction costs.

This program was terminated by TEA-21 but will continue tobe shown for reporting purposes as loan balances remain out-standing. The purchase of right-of-way is an eligible expense ofthe Federal-aid program.

✦

TRANSPORTATION TRUST FUND






The Highway Revenue Act of 1956, as amended, provides forthe transfer from the General Fund to the Highway Trust Fundof revenue from the motor fuel tax and certain other taxes paidby highway users. The Secretary of the Treasury estimates theamounts to be transferred. In turn, appropriations are authorizedfrom this fund to meet expenditures for Federal-aid highwaysand other programs as specified by law. The Administrationproposes, as part of a multi-year surface transportation reauthor-ization, to rename the Highway Trust Fund as the TransportationTrust Fund, and create two new additional accounts for rail andthe National Infrastructure Bank.

The following Status of Funds table presents the status of theproposed Transportation Trust Fund.

Cash balances.—The Status of Funds table begins with theunexpended balance on a "cash basis'' at the start of the year.The table shows the amount of cash invested in Federal securitiesat par value and the amount of cash on hand, i.e., uninvestedbalance. Next, the table provides the amounts of cash incomeand cash outlays during each year to show the cash balance atthe end of each year.

Revenues.—The Budget presentation includes new (or increased)revenues sufficient to ensure solvency of the Transportation TrustFund through 2021. As a matter of policy, the Administrationbelieves the proceeds from existing Highway Trust Fund excisetaxes should continue to be dedicated solely to the Highway andMass Transit accounts, and no existing revenue would be divertedto the new accounts for rail and the National Infrastructure Bank.The additional revenue displayed below would be sufficient tomaintain the solvency of the Transportation Trust Fund, but arenot associated with any specific policy proposal. Rather, the Ad-


Trust Funds

TRANSPORTATION TRUST FUND—Continuedministration intends to work with Congress to authorize sufficientrevenue for the Transportation Trust Fund.

The Federal-Aid Highways program is designed to aid in thedevelopment, operations and management of an intermodaltransportation system that is economically efficient, environment-ally sound, provides the foundation for the Nation to compete inthe global economy, and moves people and goods safely. Typically,all programs included within FAH are financed from the HighwayAccount of the Transportation Trust Fund , and most are distrib-uted via apportionments and allocations to States. Liquidatingcash appropriations are subsequently requested to fund outlaysresulting from obligations incurred under contract authority.

The authorization for Federal surface transportation programs,SAFETEA-LU, ended on September 30, 2009. To continue high-way programs, Congress has extended the SAFETEA-LU author-ities on a short-term basis, most recently through March 4, 2011.

The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) 2012 Budgetrequest represents a new paradigm in funding our nations high-ways. Built on past successes, the new structure strives to en-hance the safety, livability, condition, and efficiency of our na-tion's highway system. The new construct consists of six coreprograms: Safety Program; National Highway Program; LivableCommunities Program; Research, Technology and EducationProgram; Federal Allocation Program; and, the TransportationLeadership Awards.

Safety Program.—The revamped, performance-based HighwaySafety Improvement Program ($2.5 billion) doubles the Federalinvestment in highway safety programs to reduce fatalities andinjuries on public roads in alignment with Department's RoadwaySafety Plan. This program will provide $2.2 billion for infrastruc-ture oriented safety improvement projects, with the flexibility touse up to 25 percent of funds for education, enforcement andemergency medical services investments if needed to addressspecific safety problems in the State. The program also featuresfunding for rural road safety, as well as a new $293 millionHighway Safety Data Improvement Program designed to focuson improved State data collection, use of data to identify prob-lems, and use of analytical tools and processes to identify andprioritize safety treatments. The Administration proposes $17billion for the Safety Program over the six-year reauthorizationperiod.

National Highway Program.—The new performance-basedNational Highway Program ($32.4 billion) targets investment tomaintain a state of good repair on roads critical to national in-terests while also providing flexibility to the States for makingtransportation investments on the larger system of Federal-aideligible highways. The proposal streamlines and consolidatesportions of several existing programs including InterstateMaintenance, National Highway System, Highway Bridge, andthe Surface Transportation Program. The National HighwayProgram includes two new subprograms: (1) a $16.75 billionHighway Infrastructure Performance Program that is designedto improve infrastructure condition and performance on an en-

hanced National Highway System, a 220,000-mile network thatcarries 55 percent of all traffic and 97 percent of all truck-bornefreight; and (2) a $15.6 billion Flexible Investment Program thatprovides flexibility to the States to invest in infrastructure pre-servation, congestion mitigation, or performance improvementprojects on any Federal-aid eligible highway. Further, as an in-centive to make performance-based investment decisions, Statesthat successfully set and meet condition and performance targetson the enhanced National Highway System for three consecutiveyears are afforded broader eligibility for where they can investtheir funds. The Administration proposes $257 billion for theNational Highway Program over the six-year reauthorizationperiod.

Livable Communities.—The new Livable Communities Program($4.1 billion) establishes place-based planning, policies, and in-vestments to help communities increase transportation choicesand access to transportation services. This program will fundtransportation projects that improve quality of life in both ruraland urban areas, provide users with enhanced transportationchoices, and improve air quality in large metropolitan areas. Theprogram includes a new $3.4 billion formula-based program toenable recipients to deliver transportation projects for rural andurban areas that benefit quality of life, a new $500 million com-petitive grant program to promote innovative, multi-modal, andmulti-jurisdictional highway projects that promise significantenvironmental and economic benefits to an entire metropolitanarea, a region, or the nation, and a $200 million discretionarygrants program to support metropolitan transportation planningcapacity building across the country. The Administration proposes$28 billion for the Livable Communities program over the six-year reauthorization period.

Federal Allocation Program.—The new Federal AllocationProgram ($1.4 billion) consolidates several existing programswith inherently Federal responsibilities into one program withfour components: (1) improving roads both within and directlyconnecting to Federal lands, such as National parks, forests, andwildlife refuges; (2) improving roads within and accessing Triballands; (3) providing funding to the States to recover from naturaldisasters and other emergencies; and (4) supporting the develop-ment of the future transportation workforce. The Administrationproposes $10 billion for the Federal Allocation Program over thesix-year reauthorization period.

Research Program.—The Research, Technology, and EducationProgram ($641 million) provides for a comprehensive, nationally-coordinated research, technology, and education program thatwill advance DOT organizational goals, while accelerating innov-ation delivery and technology implementation. The proposal re-structures existing FHWA research, development and technologyactivities into three programs: a highway research and develop-ment program, a technology and innovation deployment program,and a training and education activities program. The ResearchProgram also supports activities in the areas of safety, infrastruc-ture preservation, operations, environmental sustainability, liv-ability, and policy. The Administration proposes $4 billion forthe Research Program over the six-year reauthorization period.

Transportation Leadership Awards.—This $1.3 billion compet-itive grant program will assist State departments of transporta-tion, metropolitan planning organizations, Tribal governmentsand other transportation agencies to make critical reforms neces-sary to institutionalize best practices and innovations in trans-portation policy. The program will use competitive funding awardsas incentives for State and local partners to reform the waytransportation investments and decisions are made, to integrateperformance management into budget and project selection pro-


cesses, and to make other reforms proven to deliver better out-comes on national strategic priorities. The Administration pro-poses $17 billion for the Transportation Leadership Awards overthe six-year reauthorization period.

Surface Transportation Revenue Alternatives Office.—TheBudget includes $20 million to establish a Surface TransportationRevenue Alternatives Office to research, analyze, and field testthe feasibility of various innovations in user-fee collection, includ-ing mileage-based user fee systems, that provide a stronger con-nection between fees paid by travelers and the impact of theirtravel on transportation conditions and performance.

Up-Front Investments.—To spur job growth and allow Statesto initiate sound multi-year investments, the Budget includes a$50 billion boost above current law spending for roads, railwaysand runways. In addition to the six core FHWA programs, the2012 Budget request includes $25 billion to be apportioned tothe States for critical highway infrastructure on an enhancedNational Highway System, $2.2 billion to support significantimprovements at land ports of entry facilities which link directlyto the transportation infrastructure at border crossing locations,and $450 million to address the growing demand for TIFIAcredit assistance.

FEDERAL MOTOR CARRIER SAFETYADMINISTRATION

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA)was established within the Department of Transportation by theMotor Carrier Safety Improvement Act (P.L. 106–159) inDecember 1999. Prior to this legislation, motor carrier safety re-sponsibilities were under the jurisdiction of the Federal HighwayAdministration.

FMCSA's mission is to promote safe commercial motor vehicleoperation and reduce truck and bus crashes. The agency also ischarged with reducing fatalities associated with commercialmotor vehicles through education, regulation, enforcement, andresearch and innovative technology, thereby achieving a saferand more secure transportation environment. Additionally,FMCSA is responsible for enforcing Federal motor carrier safetyand hazardous materials regulations for all commercial vehiclesentering the United States along its southern and northern bor-ders .

THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2012Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration—ContinuedTrust Funds—Continued910

Motor Carrier Safety Grants support State compliance reviews;identify and apprehend traffic violators; conduct roadside inspec-tions; and support safety audits on new entrant carriers. Statesafety enforcement efforts at the southern and northern bordersensure that all points of entry into the U.S. are fortified withcomprehensive safety measures. In addition, the FMCSA overseesState commercial driver's license (CDL) oversight activities toprevent unqualified drivers from being issued CDLs. The Per-formance and Registration Information Systems and Management(PRISM) program links State motor vehicle registration systemswith carrier safety data in order to identify unsafe commercialmotor carriers. FMCSA is also deploying Commercial VehicleInformation Systems and Networks (CVISN) to improve safetyand productivity of commercial vehicles and drivers. An admin-istrative takedown is also provided to conduct trainings for statepartners and to cover administrative costs.

Under the Administration's surface transportation reauthoriz-ation proposal, the Motor Carrier Safety Grants will be consolid-ated and re-organized under three umbrella grant programs—the Compliance and Safety Accountability Grant Program, theDriver Safety Program, and the Data Information TechnologyGrant Program— to allow for more efficient administration ofgrant funds and to better achieve FMCSA's safety goals.

The mission of the National Driver Register (NDR) is to improvetraffic and transportation safety by providing a nationwidedatabase of problem drivers that assists State driver licensingagencies in identifying these individuals and assists employersin making hiring and certification decisions. NDR is a computer-ized database of information about drivers who have had theirlicenses revoked or suspended, or who have been convicted ofserious traffic violations such as driving while impaired by alcoholor drugs. State motor vehicle agencies provide NDR with thenames of individuals who have lost their privileges or who havebeen convicted of a serious traffic violation.

The funds in this account supported the modernization of thisprogram. In 2012, the National Driver Register Modernizationis no longer funded as a separate account, but the programactivity will continue under NHTSA's Operations and Researchprograms. Therefore, no funding is requested for this account in2012.

The Budget includes funding levels for all surface programs.In 2012, Vehicle Safety is re-baselined from general fund to con-tract authority in the Transportation Trust Fund.

NHTSA provides research, demonstrations, technical assistance,and national leadership for highway safety programs conductedby State and local governments, and various safety associationsand organizations. This program emphasizes alcohol and drugcountermeasures, driver and passenger occupant protection,traffic enforcement and justice services, emergency medical andtrauma care systems, traffic records and licensing, State andcommunity evaluation, motorcycle riders, pedestrian and bicyclesafety, pupil transportation, young and older driver safety pro-grams, and development of improved accident investigation pro-cedures.

Under the Administration's reauthorization proposal, NHTSAimproves its vital data collection and analysis which form thebasis of its research, rulemaking, and performance measurementactivities. NHTSA also proposes the expanded collection andanalysis of crash data to identify safety problems, and the imple-mentation and operation of the National Driver Register's Prob-lem Driver Pointer System, which helps to identify drivers whohave been suspended for or convicted of serious traffic offenses,such as driving under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.

These programs support vehicle safety activities to reducehighway fatalities, prevent injuries, and reduce their associatedeconomic toll by research into and implementation of Federalmotor vehicle safety standards. NHTSA's research areas includebiomechanics, crash avoidance and mitigation technologies, andvehicle safety issues related to fuel efficiency and alternativefuels. NHTSA's Operation and Research programs fund a broadrange of initiatives, including promulgation of Federal motorvehicle safety standards for motor vehicles and safety relatedequipment; automotive fuel economy standards required by theEnergy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended by the EnergyIndependence and Security Act of 2007; international harmoniz-ation of vehicle standards; and consumer information on motorvehicle safety, including the New Car Assessment Program.NHTSA conducts compliance programs for motor vehicle safetyand automotive fuel economy standards; investigations of safety-related motor vehicle defects; enforcement of Federal odometerlaw; support of enforcement of State odometer law; and safetyrecalls when warranted. Motor vehicle safety research and devel-opment supports all NHTSA programs, including the collectionand analysis of crash data to identify safety problems; develop-ment of alternative solutions; and assessments of costs, benefits,and effectiveness. Research continues on standards and techno-logies to improve vehicle crashworthiness and crash avoidance,with emphasis on decreasing fatalities from rollover crashes andimproving vehicle-to-vehicle crash compatibility.

The National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) wasestablished in 1970 through the Rail Passenger Service Act.Amtrak is operated and managed as a for-profit corporation withall Board members appointed by the Executive Branch of theFederal Government, with the advice and consent of the Senate.Amtrak is not an agency or instrument of the U.S. Government.Since 2006, Federal resources specifically for Amtrak have beenprovided through separate appropriation accounts for capital,operating, and efficiency incentive grants.

In 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)provided $1.3 billion to Amtrak for capital grants, of which $450million was designated for capital security grants to fund enhance-ments in situational awareness, improvised explosive devices(IED) and Vehicle Borne Improvised Explosive Device detection,risk assessment/risk reduction cycle optimization (when vulner-abilities are discovered), and quick response communicationswithin the intercity passenger rail network. The remaining $850million funds projects that remediate vulnerabilities in the sys-tem's physical infrastructure and enhance national incidentmanagement and risk mitigation capabilities in the intercitypassenger rail network.

No Federal appropriation is required, since a non-Federal infra-structure partner may contribute the subsidy amount (in theform of a cerdit risk premium) required by the Credit Reform Actof 1990. Once received, statutorily established investigationcharges are immediately available for appraisals and necessarydeterminations and findings.

The2012 Budget request includes $4.0 billion for System Preserva-tion, and over six years, the Administration proposes to invest$15.0 billion. Three program areas provide the framework neces-sary to preserve and renew existing infrastructure:

National Network Service.—Fund operating and capital costsassociated with the National Passenger Railroad Corporation(Amtrak) long-distance rail passenger services; capital projectsto maintain national reservations, security, mechanical facilities,training centers, and other assets; and high priority congestionmitigation investments to reduce bottlenecks to reliable long-distance or state-supported corridor service.

SYSTEM PRESERVATION—Continuedand equipment. Amtrak is the primary passenger rail serviceprovider in the U.S. Funding in this account will ensure thoseservices are uninterrupted and benefit the condition of the exist-ing network.

Public Asset Backlog Retirement.—Eliminate the backlog ofneeded railroad and railroad asset repairs and upgrades, includ-ing those necessary for Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)compliance; replace obsolete infrastructure, facilities, andequipment; and fund costs associated with early buyouts of exist-ing capital equipment loans and leases.

Up-Front Investments.—To spur job growth and allow Statesto initiate sound multi-year investments, the Budget includes a$50 billion boost above current law spending for roads, railwaysand runways. Within this account totals, $2.5 billion is providedto reduce the maintenance backlog for Amtrak fleet and infra-structure, particularly station compliance with the Americanswith Disability Act.

The Administration proposes to move a number of currentGeneral Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, aspart of surface transportation reauthorization.

For the first time, the Administration proposes to include pas-senger rail programs within surface transportation reauthoriza-tion, with a new National Rail System program, funded out of adedicated Rail Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.Funding requested in the Network Development account will beused to transform high-speed and intercity passenger rail serviceusing Federal leadership, coordinated with State, local, andprivate sector partners. The 2012 Budget request includes $4.0billion for this account, and over six years, the Administrationproposes to invest $37.6 billion. The program's goal will be todevelop robust passenger rail service in areas it makes economicsense, to enhance mobility options for America's congested cities,foster environmentally-favorable mass transportation, and de-crease energy consumption. This will be accomplished throughfour program areas:

High-Speed Corridor Development.—To plan and develop anational system of corridors with the goal of connecting at least80 percent of Americans to efficient and viable passenger railtransportation within 25 years. This will include the developmentof Core Express, Regional, and Emerging/Feeder corridors.

Station Development.—To plan and develop intermodal stationsthat will connect passenger rail services to other transportationmodes, including public transit, airports, and non-motorized fa-cilities.

U.S. Rail Equipment Development.—To promote interoperabilityof passenger rail equipment and create economies of scale fordomestic passenger equipment manufacturing.

Capacity-building and Transition Assistance.—To developgovernmental and private institutional capacity and expertisein passenger rail transportation and relieve the financial burdenon states and rail service operators during start-up of new oper-ations.

Up-Front Investments.—To spur job growth and allow Statesto initiate sound multi-year investments, the Budget includes a$50 billion boost above current law spending for roads, railwaysand runways.

FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATIONThe Federal Transit Administration (FTA) provides grant

funding to State and local governments, public and privatetransit operators, and other recipients to construct new publictransit systems; purchase and maintain transit vehicles andequipment; subsidize public transit operations; support regionaltransportation planning efforts; and improve the technology andservice methods used in the delivery of public transportationservices. FTA programs advance the Administration's domesticand fiscal policy priorities and increase the impact of governmentspending by leveraging place-conscious planning and program-ming. In 2012, as part of the Administration's surface transport-ation reauthorization proposal, FTA proposes to reformat andrestructure its programs and accounts. These changes reflect theAdministration's commitment to improve the state of good repairof bus and rail transit infrastructure and strengthen the safetyoversight of public transportation operators. Funding in 2012 forpublic transportation will increase choices for transportationusers, provide affordable access to employment centers and socialservices, and enhance economic opportunities and quality of lifefor all Americans.

The table below presents actual funding enacted for 2010 , es-timated 2011 funding based on a full year Continuing Resulotion,and requested 2012 funding under the proposed account struc-ture. Note that the FY 2012 Budget proposes that all new fundingbe authorized as mandatory contract authority from the renamedTransportation Trust Fund. The Budget also adjusts 2010 and2011 funding for programs that received discretionary General

Fund appropriations as mandatory to create a consistent compar-ison across years. Additional detail is provided in the programbudget schedules that follow.

The 2012 Budget presents FTA's proposed reauthorizationprogram and account structure. This includes renaming theFormula and Bus Grants account to the Transit Formula Grantsaccount and reorganizing programs within the account. Someprograms previously funded here have been merged with othersor moved to other accounts. The account is funded from the MassTransit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. The 2012Budget request includes $7.7 billion for this account, and oversix years, the Administration proposes to invest $46.6 billion.

Formula Grant funds can be used for all transit capital purposesincluding bus and railcar purchases, facility repair and construc-tion, maintenance and where eligible, planning and operatingexpenses. These funds help existing transit systems provide safeand reliable transportation options, promote economically vibrantcommunities and meet the requirements of the Americans withDisabilities Act (ADA) and the Clean Air Act (CAA). The 2012formula grant program structure includes:

Urbanized Area Formula.—$6,492 million will be apportionedto areas with populations of 50,000 or more. Funds may be usedfor any transit capital purpose, including preventive maintenancefor capital assets in urban areas over 200,000 in population. Inurban areas under 200,000, both capital and operating costs areeligible expenditures. Formula funds to areas of 50,000 or morein population for capital projects, including preventive mainten-ance, and in instances operating costs.

Non- Urbanized Areas Formula.—$766 million will be appor-tioned by legislative formula based on each State's nonurbanareas with populations of less than 50,000. Available fundingmay also be used to support intercity bus service as well as tohelp meet rural and small urban areas' transit needs, and includ-ing $10.9 million for the Rural Transportation Assistance Pro-gram. This request also includes $15.0 million for discretionarygrants to native american tribes for capital, operating, planningand administrative assistance.

Consolidated Specialized Transportation Grant Program.—$405million. A new program that replaces three existing grant pro-grams for targeted populations (formerly the Elderly Individualsand Individuals with Disabilitites Program, the New Freedomprogram, and the Job Access and Reverse Commute program).This new program would continue the goals of these programsby funding alternative forms of transportation where traditionalservices are unavailable, inappropriate, or insufficient.

National Transit Data Base (NTD).—$5 million. For operationand maintenance of the NTD, a database of statistics on thetransit industry that FTA is legally required to maintain. NTDdata serves as the basis for FTA formula apportionments to itsgrant recipients.

Emergency Relief Program.—$25 million. A new program tohelp transit agencies restore needed transportation services fol-lowing disaster events.



TRANSIT FORMULA GRANTS—ContinuedUp-Front Investments.—To spur job growth and allow States

to initiate sound multi-year investments, the Budget includes a$50 billion boost above current law spending for roads, railwaysand runways. Within this account totals, $3 billion is providedfor additional transit formula grant assistance to both urban andrural areas.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transport-ation outlays as mandatory, with the recommendations of thePresidents National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility andReform. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent thespending increase above baseline that is subject to PAYGO.
