$28 billion would be provided for highway restoration, repair, and construction projects, as well as passenger and freight
rail transportation projects, distributed via traditional formulas that were also utilized in the American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act of 2009. A portion of the funds within each State would be sub-allocated by population areas. To speed project delivery,
the Federal share of project costs would be 100 percent. In addition, set asides are specifically provided for: (1) Puerto
Rico and territorial highways; (2) Indian reservation roads; (3) park roads and parkways; (4) forest highways; (5) refuge
roads; and (6) management and oversight, including funding for State departments of transportation planning activities. Competitive
funding is also provided for transportation training programs, particularly focused on workforce skill gaps, and disadvantaged
business enterprise training assistance. $2 billion for cross-border transportation infrastructure improvements will help
support necessary improvements at Land Ports of Entry facilities which link directly to the transportation infrastructure
at border crossing locations.
$2 billion would be provided for airport development grants. Grants made available under the section would have a 100 percent
Federal share.
$1 billion would be provided to conduct research and development and demonstrations and to acquire, establish, and improve
Federal Aviation Aadministration air navigation facilities, systems, and procedures to advance the Next Generation Air Transportation
System.
$4 billion would be provided for projects to improve the Nation's existing intercity passenger rail network and develop new
high speed rail corridors. Grants made available under the section would have a 100 percent Federal share. The Secretary would
be required to issue interim guidance to applicants detailing the application process and eligibility criteria, and not less
than 85 percent of the funds awarded shall be for projects supporting the development of intercity or high speed passenger
rail corridors.
$2 billion would be provided to Amtrak for the repair, rehabilitation, and upgrade of the National Railroad Passenger Corporation's
(Amtrak) assets and infrastructure, including rolling stock.
$3 billion would be provided for transit capital projects, particularly for the purchase of new buses and for the repair and
rehabilitation of existing rail and bus systems, including rolling stock. To speed project delivery, the Federal share of
project costs would be 100 percent. Of the funds provided, 80 percent would be apportioned to urbanized areas with a population
of at least 50,000, 10 percent shall be apportioned to "Growing States and High Density States" as provided in Section 5340
of title 49, and 10 percent shall be apportioned to non-urbanized areas with populations below 50,000. In addition, within
the amount made available for apportionment to non-urbanized areas, 2.5 percent would be made available for tribal transit
programs as provided in Section 5311(c)(1) of title 49. Funds apportioned to urbanized areas with a population of at least
50,000, but not more than 200,000 may are eligible for both capital and operating assistance. Funds apportioned to non-urbanized
areas are also eligible for operating assistance.
$6 billion would be provided for capital projects to modernize existing fixed guideway systems and to replace and rehabilitate
buses and bus facilities. To speed project delivery, the Federal share of project costs would be 100 percent. To target fixed
guideway modernization funding to the transit systems with the highest need for state of good repair upgrades, 75 percent
of the funds provided will be apportioned based on fixed guideway revenue vehicle miles and passenger miles, as provided in
Section 5336(b) of Title 49. The remaining 25 percent shall be available for bus and bus facilities and shall be apportioned
based on formula in Section 5336 other than subsection (b).
$4 billion would be provided for credit assistance and award grants on a competitive basis for projects across all surface
transportation modes that will have a significant impact on the Nation, a metropolitan area or a region. Provisions require
the Secretary to publish criteria on which to base competition for the grants within 90 days of enactment, with priority for
distribution of funds given to projects expected to be completed within three years of the date of enactment of the Act.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, and to also move a number of current General Fund
programs into the Transportation Trust Fund. This schedule reclassifies 2012 estimate and baseline budget authority and outlays
as mandatory, for comparability purposes, and to calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

The National Infrastructure Investments account reflects activity under the Transportation Investments in Greenhouse Gas and
Energy Reduction (TIGER) program. TIGER program provides grants as well as TIFIA credit assistance to projects that demonstrate
their ability to contribute to the long-term economic competitiveness of the nation, improve the condition of existing transportation
facilities and systems, increase energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve the safety of U.S. transportation
facilities, and/or enhance the quality of living and working environments of communities through increased transportation
choices and connections.
As part of the surface transportation reauthorization proposal, the Administration proposes to continue funding for National
Infrastructure Investments at $500 million for 2013 increasing to $638 million in 2018.
The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, and to also move a number of current General Fund
programs into the Transportation Trust Fund. The negative figures in this schedule are necessary to adjust the mandatory
budget authority downward so that the Budget properly accounts for requested program growth in the new trust fund accounts
and should not be misinterpreted as a reduction below $500 million for TIGER in 2013.

The Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act of 1996 (P.L. 104–264) authorized the collection of user fees for services provided
by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to aircraft that neither take off nor land in the United States, commonly known
as overflight fees. The Act permanently appropriated the first $50 million of such fees for the Essential Air Service program
and rural airport improvements. To the extent that fee collections fall below $50 million the law requires the difference
to be covered by FAA funds.

Through 1997, the Essential Air Service program was funded from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund. Starting in 1998, the Federal
Aviation Administration reauthorization funded it as a mandatory program supported by overflight fees under the Essential
Air Service and Rural Airport Improvement Fund. In addition to mandatory funding supported by overflight fees, direct appropriations
from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund to Payments to Air Carriers have been enacted every year beginning in 2002 to meet
the needs of the essential air service program. For 2013, $114 million is requested from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund
for Payments to Air Carriers.

For 2013, the Budget requests $9,718 million for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) operations. These funds will be used
to continue to promote aviation safety and efficiency. The Budget provides funding for the Air Traffic Organization (ATO)
which is responsible for managing the air traffic control system. As a performance-based organization, the ATO is designed
to provide cost-effective, efficient, and, above all, safe air traffic services. The Budget also funds the Aviation Safety
Organization which ensures the safe operation of the airlines and certifies new aviation products. In addition, the request
also funds regulation of the commercial space transportation industry, as well as FAA policy oversight and overall management
functions.

The Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act of 1996 (P.L. 104–264) authorized the collection of user fees for air traffic control
and related services provided by the Federal Aviation Administration to aircraft that neither take off nor land in the United
States, commonly known as overflight fees. The Budget estimates that $75 million in overflight fees will be collected in 2013.

The Budget proposes to increase the amount of funding provided from overflight fees to the Essential Air Service (EAS) Program
from $50 million to $100 million. The additional funding will be used to pay subsidies to air carriers providing service under
the EAS program, thereby reducing the amount of discretionary budget authority needed to fund the program.

The fund provides direct support for the aviation insurance program (chapter 443 of title 49, U.S. Code). Income to the fund
is derived from premium collections for premium insurance coverage issued, income from authorized investments, and filing
fees for non-premium coverage issued. The non-premium program provides aviation insurance coverage for aircraft used in connection
with certain Government contract operations by a Department or Agency that agrees to indemnify the Secretary of Transportation
for any losses covered by the insurance. The premium program provides war risk insurance coverage at a premium based on activity.
The Homeland Security Act of 2002 (P.L. 107–296) added a provision to require the Secretary to provide additional premium
war risk insurance coverage (hull loss or damage and passenger and crew liability) to air carriers insured for third-party
war risk liability on November 25, 2002.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) premium war risk insurance policy covers: (i) hull losses at agreed value; (ii)
death, injury, or property loss to passengers or crew, the limit being the same as the air carrier's commercial coverage as
of November 25, 2002; and (iii) third party liability.
Now that commercial underwriters are expressing a stronger interest in writing a small but limited amount of war risk, the
Budget proposes to establish a $150 million deductible for hull and liability exposures in all FAA premium war risk policies.
The Administration's goal is to incentivize the commercial marketplace to underwrite most but not all aviation war risks.

Section 9502 of Title 26, U.S. Code, provides for amounts equivalent to the funds received in the U.S. Treasury for the passenger
ticket tax and certain other taxes paid by airport and airway users to be transferred to the Airport and Airway Trust Fund.
In turn, appropriations are authorized from this fund to meet obligations for airport improvement grants, Federal Aviation
Administration facilities and equipment, research, operations, payment to air carriers, and for the Bureau of Transportation
Statistics Office of Airline Information.
To more equitably distribute the cost of air traffic services across the aviation user community, the Administration proposes
to establish a new surcharge for air traffic services of $100 per flight. Military aircraft, public aircraft, piston aircraft,
air ambulances, aircraft operating outside of controlled airspace, and Canada-to-Canada flights would be exempt. The revenues
generated by the surcharge would be deposited into the Airport and Airway Trust Fund. The surcharge would be effective for
flights beginning after September 30, 2012.
The status of the fund is as follows:

Limitation on obligations (Transportation Trust Funds)
–926
The Budget proposes to lower funding for the ongoing airport grants program to $2.4 billion by eliminating guaranteed funding
for large and medium hub airports. The Budget proposal to reduce the obligation limitation by $926 million is consistent
with the recommendation of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform to eliminate grants to
large and medium hub airports. To assist those airports that need the most help, the Administration proposes to focus Federal
grants to support smaller commercial and general aviation airports that do not have access to additional revenue or other
outside sources of capital. The Budget also proposes to allow large and medium hub airports to increase the non-Federal Passenger
Facility Charge thereby, giving large and medium hub airports greater flexibility to generate their own revenue. Eligible
airports in all size categories will be able to compete for an additional $2.0 billion in one-time funding that will be made
available under the President's Immediate Transportation Investment proposal targeted at investments in roads, railways, and
runways.
Facilities and Equipment
(airport and airway trust fund)
For necessary expenses, not otherwise provided for, for acquisition, establishment, technical support services, improvement
by contract or purchase, and hire of national airspace systems and experimental facilities and equipment, as authorized under
part A of subtitle VII of title 49, United States Code, including initial acquisition of necessary sites by lease or grant;
engineering and service testing, including construction of test facilities and acquisition of necessary sites by lease or
grant; construction and furnishing of quarters and related accommodations for officers and employees of the Federal Aviation
Administration stationed at remote localities where such accommodations are not available; and the purchase, lease, or transfer
of aircraft from funds available under this heading, including aircraft for aviation regulation and certification; to be derived
from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund, [$2,730,731,000] $2,850,000,000, of which [$475,000,000] $480,000,000 shall remain available until September 30, [2012] 2013, and of which [$2,255,731,000] $2,370,000,000 shall remain available until September 30, [2014] 2015: Provided, That there may be credited to this appropriation funds received from States, counties, municipalities, other public authorities,
and private sources, for expenses incurred in the establishment, improvement, and modernization of national airspace systems:
Provided further, That upon initial submission to the Congress of the fiscal year [2013] 2014 President's budget, the Secretary of Transportation shall transmit to the Congress a comprehensive capital investment plan
for the Federal Aviation Administration which includes funding for each budget line item for fiscal years [2013] 2014 through [2017] 2018, with total funding for each year of the plan constrained to the funding targets for those years as estimated and approved
by the Office of Management and Budget. (Department of Transportation Appropriations Act, 2012.)

Federal Highway Administration
The authorization for Federal surface transportation programs (the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity
Act of 2005: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU)) ended on September 30, 2009. To continue highway, transit, and highway safety
programs, Congress has extended the SAFETEA-LU authorities on a short-term basis, most recently through March 31, 2012. The
Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) 2013 Budget request represents a new paradigm in funding our nation's highways. Built
on past successes, the new structure strives to enhance the safety, livability, condition, and efficiency of the Nation's
highway system. The proposed 2013 FHWA Budget will provide the resources necessary for State, local and other Federal transportation
agencies to improve the condition and performance of their highway and roadway system, in ways that protect the environment,
provide user access and choices, and take advantage of advances in technology and innovation.
In summary, the 2013 Budget consists of $42,569 million in new budget authority and $41,485 million in outlays. Within amounts
requested for FHWA, $500 million addresses the growing demand for Transportation Infrastructure Finance Innovation Act of
1998 credit assistance.
The following table reflects the total funding for all FHWA programs.

Enacted on February 17, 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) provided $27.5 billion from
the General Fund to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), of which $26.6 billion was apportioned to States based on formulas
described in the Recovery Act and $0.9 billion was allocated to programs identified in the Recovery Act, including the Indian
Reservation Roads Program, Park Roads and Parkway Program, Forest Highway Program, Refuge Roads Program, Disadvantaged Business
Enterprise Bonding Assistance, Territorial Highway Program, Puerto Rico Highway Program, and the Ferry Boat Discretionary
Program. Administrative oversight funds are available through September 30, 2012 and all other funds were available through
September 30, 2010.
The FHWA Recovery Act funds have been used to invest in transportation, environmental protection, and other infrastructure
that will provide longer term economic benefits to the Nation. The Recovery Act funds augmented existing investments, authorized
by the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act of 2005: A Legacy for Users, enabled States, regional,
and local governments to accelerate to completion a number of highway infrastructure projects planned or underway. Since
the Recovery Act was enacted in February 2009, more than 41,000 miles of pavement across the United States have been improved.
Of the 12,924 highway projects for which Recovery Act funds were obligated, more than 3,200 projects are under construction
and more than 9,600 projects have been completed.

In the 2013 Budget, the Administration proposes to pay for a long term surface transportation reauthorization by utilizing
savings from ramping down overseas military operations. Specifically, the Budget proposes transfers from the General Fund
to the Transportation Trust Fund (TTF) to maintain TTF solvency through the reauthorization period, which are fully offset
by reduced overseas military expenditures. These transfers will cover both the existing structural trust fund structural
deficit for six years and new outlays associated with the reauthorization proposal for the ten year window. In 2013, the
Budget proposes to transfer $38.5 billion into the TTF.

The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1968 authorized the establishment of a right-of-way revolving fund. This fund was used to
make cash advances to States for the purpose of purchasing right-of-way parcels in advance of highway construction and thereby
preventing the inflation of land prices from significantly increasing construction costs.
This program was terminated by the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century of 1998 but will continue to be shown for
reporting purposes as loan balances remain outstanding. The purchase of right-of-way is an eligible expense of the Federal-Aid
Highway program.

The Highway Revenue Act of 1956, as amended, provides for the transfer from the General Fund to the Highway Trust Fund of
revenue from the motor fuel tax and certain other taxes paid by highway users. The Secretary of the Treasury estimates the
amounts to be transferred. In turn, appropriations are authorized from this fund to meet expenditures for Federal-Aid Highways
and other programs, as specified by law. The Administration proposes, as part of a multi-year surface transportation reauthorization,
to rename the Highway Trust Fund as the Transportation Trust Fund, and create a new Multimodal Account for passenger rail
and National Infrastructure Investments programs.
The following Status of Funds table presents the status of the proposed Transportation Trust Fund.
Cash balances._The Status of Funds table begins with the unexpended balance on a "cash basis'' at the start of the year. The table shows
the amount of cash invested in Federal securities at par value and the amount of cash on hand, i.e., uninvested balance. Next,
the table provides the amounts of cash income and cash outlays during each year to show the cash balance at the end of each
year.
Revenues._The Budget presentation includes estimated receipts from existing Highway Trust Fund excise taxes, which under the Administration's
surface transportation reauthorization proposal, would continue to be deposited into the Highway and Mass Transit Accounts
of the expanded Transportation Trust Fund in the same manner as current law.
General Fund Transfers._The Budget proposes to transfer $231 billion over six years ($38 billion annually) from the General Fund into the Transportation
Trust Fund to maintain trust fund solvency and pay for increased outlays associated with the Administrations reauthorization
proposal. These general fund transfers are fully offset by savings derived from reductions in overseas military operations.

The Federal-Aid Highways (FAH) program is designed to aid in the development, operations, and management of an intermodal
transportation system that is economically efficient, environmentally sound, provides the foundation for the Nation to compete
in the global economy, and moves people and goods safely. Typically, all programs included within FAH are financed from the
Highway Account of the proposed Transportation Trust Fund (formerly to be the Highway Trust Fund), and most are distributed
via apportionments and allocations to States. Liquidating cash appropriations are subsequently requested to fund outlays resulting
from obligations incurred under contract authority.
The authorization for Federal surface transportation programs (the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity
Act of 2005: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU)) ended on September 30, 2009. To continue highway programs, the Congress has
extended the SAFETEA-LU authorities on a short-term basis, most recently through March 31, 2012.
The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) 2013 Budget request represents a new paradigm in funding our nations highways.
Built on past successes, the new structure strives to enhance the safety, livability, condition, and efficiency of the Nation's
highway system. The new construct consists of seven core programs: Safety Program; National Highway Program; Livable Communities
Program; Research, Technology and Education Program; Federal Allocation Program; Transportation Infrastructure Finance and
Innovation Act Program; and, Challenge Grants.
Safety Program._The revamped, performance-based Highway Safety Improvement Program ($2.5 billion) doubles the Federal investment in highway
safety programs to reduce fatalities and injuries on public roads in alignment with the Department of Transportation's Roadway
Safety Plan. This program will provide $2.2 billion for infrastructure oriented safety improvement projects, with the flexibility
to use up to 25 percent of funds for education, enforcement, and emergency medical services investments if needed to address
specific safety problems in the State. The program also features funding for rural road safety, as well as a new $293 million
Highway Safety Data Improvement Program designed to focus on improved State data collection, use of data to identify problems,
and use of analytical tools and processes to identify and prioritize safety treatments. The Administration proposes $17 billion
for the Safety Program over the six-year reauthorization period.
National Highway Program._The new performance-based National Highway Program ($32.4 billion) targets investment to maintain a state of good repair on
roads critical to national interests while also providing flexibility to the States for making transportation investments
on the larger system of Federal-aid eligible highways. The proposal streamlines and consolidates portions of several existing
programs including Interstate Maintenance, National Highway System, Highway Bridge, and the Surface Transportation Program.
The National Highway Program includes two new subprograms: (1) a $16.8 billion Highway Infrastructure Performance Program
that is designed to improve infrastructure condition and performance on an enhanced National Highway System, a 220,000-mile
network that carries 55 percent of all traffic and 97 percent of all truck-borne freight; and (2) a $15.6 billion Flexible
Investment Program that provides flexibility to the States to invest in infrastructure preservation, congestion mitigation,
or performance improvement projects on any Federal-aid eligible highway. Further, as an incentive to make performance-based
investment decisions, States that successfully set and meet condition and performance targets on the enhanced National Highway
System for three consecutive years are afforded broader eligibility for where they can invest their funds. The Administration
proposes $229 billion for the National Highway Program over the six-year reauthorization period.
Livable Communities._The new Livable Communities Program ($4.0 billion) establishes place-based planning, policies, and investments to help communities
increase transportation choices and access to transportation services. This program will fund transportation projects that
improve quality of life in both rural and urban areas, provide users with enhanced transportation choices, and improve air
quality in large metropolitan areas. The program includes a new $3.3 billion formula-based program to enable recipients to
deliver transportation projects for rural and urban areas that benefit quality of life, a new $500 million competitive grant
program to promote innovative, multi-modal, and multi-jurisdictional highway projects that promise significant environmental
and economic benefits to an entire metropolitan area, a region, or the nation, and a $200 million discretionary grants program
to support metropolitan transportation planning capacity building across the country. The Administration proposes $27 billion
for the Livable Communities program over the six-year reauthorization period.
Federal Allocation Program._The new Federal Allocation Program ($1.4 billion) consolidates several existing programs with inherently Federal responsibilities
into one program with four components: (1) improving roads both within and directly connecting to Federal lands, such as National
parks, forests, and wildlife refuges; (2) improving roads within and accessing Tribal lands; (3) providing funding to the
States to recover from natural disasters and other emergencies; and (4) supporting the development of the future transportation
workforce. The Administration proposes $10 billion for the Federal Allocation Program over the six-year reauthorization period.
Research Program._The Research, Technology, and Education Program ($644 million) provides for a comprehensive, nationally-coordinated research,
technology, and education program that will advance the Department of Transportation organizational goals, while accelerating
innovation delivery and technology implementation. The proposal restructures existing FHWA research, development and technology
activities into three programs: a highway research and development program, a technology and innovation deployment program,
and a training and education activities program. The Research Program also supports activities in the areas of safety, infrastructure
preservation, operations, environmental sustainability, livability, and policy. The Administration proposes $4 billion for
the Research Program over the six-year reauthorization period.
Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) Program._This $500 million program provides contract authority for grant loan subsidies and administrative costs to assist with funding
nationally or regionally significant transportation projects. The Administration proposes $3 billion for the TIFIA Program
over the six-year reauthorization period.
Challenge Grants._This $700 million competitive grant program will assist State departments of transportation, metropolitan planning organizations,
Tribal governments, and other transportation agencies to make critical reforms necessary to institutionalize best practices
and innovations in transportation policy. The program will use competitive funding awards as incentives for State and local
partners to reform the way transportation investments and decisions are made, to integrate performance management into budget
and project selection processes, and to make other reforms proven to deliver better outcomes on national strategic priorities.
The Administration proposes $12 billion for Challenge Grants over the six-year reauthorization period.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. This schedule reclassifies discretionary outlays
from obligation limitations as mandatory outlays from mandatory contract authority for the 2012 estimate. This schedule also
creates a new baseline of contract authority that is equal to the previous discretionary obligation limitation baseline, to
calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) was established within the Department of Transportation by the Motor
Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999 (P.L. 106–159). Prior to this legislation, motor carrier safety responsibilities were
under the jurisdiction of the Federal Highway Administration.
FMCSA's mission is to promote safe commercial motor vehicle operation and reduce truck and bus crashes. The agency also is
charged with reducing fatalities associated with commercial motor vehicles through education, regulation, enforcement, and
research and innovative technology, thereby achieving a safer and more secure transportation environment. Additionally, FMCSA
is responsible for enforcing Federal motor carrier safety and hazardous materials regulations for all commercial vehicles
entering the United States along its southern and northern borders.

Motor Carrier Safety Grants support States to conduct compliance reviews, identify and apprehend traffic violators, conduct
roadside inspections, and support safety audits on new entrant carriers. State safety enforcement efforts at the southern
and northern borders ensure that all points of entry into the U.S. are fortified with comprehensive safety measures. In addition,
the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) oversees State commercial driver's license (CDL) oversight activities
to prevent unqualified drivers from being issued CDLs. The Performance and Registration Information Systems and Management
program links State motor vehicle registration systems with carrier safety data in order to identify unsafe commercial motor
carriers. FMCSA is also deploying Commercial Vehicle Information Systems and Networks to improve safety and productivity of
commercial vehicles and drivers.
Under the Administration's surface transportation reauthorization proposal, the Motor Carrier Safety Grants will be consolidated
and re-organized under three umbrella grant programs—the Compliance and Safety Accountability Grant Program, the Driver Safety
Program, and the Data Information Technology Grant Program—to allow for more efficient administration of grant funds and to
better achieve FMCSA's safety goals.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. This schedule reclassifies discretionary outlays
from obligation limitations as mandatory outlays from mandatory contract authority for the 2011 estimate. This schedule also
creates a new baseline of contract authority that is equal to the previous discretionary obligation limitation baseline, to
calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

The Operations and Programs account provides the necessary resources to support program and administrative activities for
motor carrier safety. Under the Administration's surface transportation reauthorization proposal, Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA) will improve safety and reduce severe and fatal commercial motor vehicles crashes by raising the bar
to entry into the commercial motor vehicle industry, by requiring operators to maintain standards to remain in the industry,
and by removing high-risk carriers, vehicles, drivers and service providers from operation.
Funding supports nationwide motor carrier safety and consumer enforcement efforts, including the implementation of the Compliance,
Safety and Accountability Program; Household goods regulation and enforcement, and Federal safety enforcement activities at
the borders to ensure that foreign-domiciled carriers entering the U.S. are in compliance with FMSCA Regulations. Resources
are also provided to fund regulatory development and implementation, information management, research and technology, grants
to State and local partners, safety education, and outreach and the safety and consumer telephone hotline.

The mission of the National Driver Register (NDR) is to improve traffic and transportation safety by providing a nationwide
database of problem drivers that assists State driver licensing agencies in identifying these individuals and assists employers
in making hiring and certification decisions. NDR is a computerized database of information about drivers who have had their
licenses revoked or suspended, or who have been convicted of serious traffic violations such as driving while impaired by
alcohol or drugs. State motor vehicle agencies provide NDR with the names of individuals who have lost their privileges or
who have been convicted of a serious traffic violation.
The funds in this account supported the modernization of this program. The schedules above illustrate the remaining activity
associated with the completed National Driver Register Modernization.
No new funds are requested for this program in 2013.

The Budget includes funding levels for all surface programs. In 2013, Vehicle Safety is re-baselined from the General Fund
to contract authority in the proposed Transportation Trust Fund.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) provides research, demonstrations, technical assistance, and national
leadership for highway safety programs conducted by State and local governments, and various safety associations and organizations.
This program emphasizes alcohol and drug countermeasures, driver and passenger occupant protection, traffic enforcement and
justice services, emergency medical and trauma care systems, traffic records and licensing, State and community evaluation,
motorcycle riders, pedestrian and bicycle safety, pupil transportation, young and older driver safety programs, and development
of improved accident investigation procedures.
Under the Administration's reauthorization proposal, NHTSA improves its vital data collection and analysis which form the
basis of its research, rulemaking, and performance measurement activities. NHTSA also proposes the expanded collection and
analysis of crash data to identify safety problems, and the implementation and operation of the National Driver Register's
Problem Driver Pointer System, which helps to identify drivers who have 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 reduce highway fatalities, prevent injuries, and reduce their associated
economic toll by research into and implementation of Federal motor vehicle safety standards. NHTSA's research areas include
biomechanics, crash avoidance and mitigation technologies, and vehicle safety issues related to fuel efficiency and alternative
fuels. NHTSA's Operation and Research programs fund a broad range of initiatives, including promulgation of Federal motor
vehicle safety standards for motor vehicles and safety related equipment; automotive fuel economy standards required by the
Energy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007; international harmonization
of vehicle standards; and consumer information on motor vehicle safety, including the New Car Assessment Program. NHTSA conducts
compliance programs for motor vehicle safety and automotive fuel economy standards; investigations of safety-related motor
vehicle defects; enforcement of Federal odometer law; support of enforcement of State odometer law; and safety recalls when
warranted. Motor vehicle safety research and development supports all NHTSA programs, including the collection and analysis
of crash data to identify safety problems; development of alternative solutions; and assessments of costs, benefits, and effectiveness.
Research continues on standards and technologies to improve vehicle crashworthiness and crash avoidance, with emphasis on
decreasing fatalities from rollover crashes and improving vehicle-to-vehicle crash compatibility.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. This schedule reclassifies discretionary outlays
from obligation limitations as mandatory outlays from mandatory contract authority for the 2012 estimate. This schedule also
creates a new baseline of contract authority that is equal to the previous discretionary obligation limitation baseline, to
calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) provides grants for several activities related to highway traffic
safety. Under the Administration's reauthorization proposal, NHTSA streamlines the highway safety grant process. It also establishes
a new distracted driving grant for States that enact and enforce laws to prevent distracted driving, such as prohibiting texting
while driving. States would be able to use up to $50,000,000 for any safety activity authorized under title 23, of which up
to $5,000,000 is reserved for media campaigns. NHTSA also strengthens its major highway safety grant programs that support
the following efforts:
State highway safety programs designed to reduce traffic crashes and resulting deaths, injuries, and property damage.
Programs to reduce deaths and injuries of children and adults from riding unrestrained or improperly restrained in motor vehicles
including the enforcement of laws or requirements regarding the use of safety belts and child restraints in passenger motor
vehicles.
Adoption and implementation of effective programs to improve the timeliness, accuracy, completeness, uniformity, integration,
and accessibility of State data that is needed to identify priorities for national, State, and local highway and traffic safety
programs.
Adoption and implementation of effective programs to reduce traffic safety problems resulting from individuals driving while
under the influence of alcohol.
Reduction of the number of single and multi-vehicle crashes involving motorcyclists through motorcyclist safety training and
motorcyclist awareness programs, including improvements to training curricula, delivery of training, recruitment or retention
of motorcyclist safety instructors, and public awareness and outreach programs.
High-visibility traffic safety law enforcement campaigns to achieve one or both of the following objectives: (1) reduce alcohol-impaired
or drug-impaired operation of motor vehicles; and/or (2) increase the use of safety belts by occupants of motor vehicles.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. This schedule reclassifies discretionary outlays
from obligation limitations as mandatory outlays from mandatory contract authority for the 2012 estimate. This schedule also
creates a new baseline of contract authority that is equal to the previous discretionary obligation limitation baseline, to
calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

Funds are used to redevelop the Pennsylvania Station in New York City, which involves renovating the James A. Farley Post
Office building. Funding for this project was included in the Grants to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation appropriation
in 1995 through 1997, and the Northeast Corridor Improvement Program in 1998. In 2000, an advance appropriation of $20 million
was provided for 2001, 2002, and 2003. In 2001, Congress specified that the $20 million advance appropriation provided in
2000 for the Farley Building was to be used exclusively for fire and life safety initiatives. No new funds are requested
for this program in 2013.

The National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) was established in 1970 through the Rail Passenger Service Act. Amtrak
is operated and managed as a for-profit corporation with all Board members appointed by the Executive Branch of the Federal
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 been provided through separate appropriation accounts for capital, operating,
and efficiency incentive grants.
In 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) provided $1.3 billion to Amtrak for capital grants,
of which $450 million was designated for capital security grants to fund enhancements in situational awareness, improvised
explosive devices and Vehicle Borne Improvised Explosive Device detection, risk assessment/risk reduction cycle optimization
(when vulnerabilities are discovered), and quick response communications within the intercity passenger rail network. The
remaining $850 million in Recovery Act funds were for projects that remediate vulnerabilities in the system's physical infrastructure
and enhance national incident management and risk mitigation capabilities in the intercity passenger rail network.
Under the Administration's surface transportation reauthorization proposal, Amtrak will be an eligible grantee for competitive
grants under the System Preservation and Renewal component of the new National Rail System program, funded within the Multimodal
Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.
Operating Subsidy Grants to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation
[To enable the Secretary of Transportation to make quarterly grants to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation for the
operation of intercity passenger rail, as authorized by section 101 of the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of
2008 (division B of Public Law 110–432), $466,000,000, to remain available until expended: Provided, That the amounts available under this paragraph shall be available for the Secretary to approve funding to cover operating
losses for the Corporation only after receiving and reviewing a grant request for each specific train route: Provided further, That each such grant request shall be accompanied by a detailed financial analysis, revenue projection, and capital expenditure
projection justifying the Federal support to the Secretary's satisfaction: Provided further, That not later than 60 days after enactment of this Act, the Corporation shall transmit, in electronic format, to the Secretary,
the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations, the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and the Senate
Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation the annual budget and business plan and the 5-Year Financial Plan for fiscal
year 2012 required under section 204 of the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008: Provided further, That the budget, business plan, and the 5-Year Financial Plan shall also include a separate accounting of ridership, revenues,
and capital and operating expenses for the Northeast Corridor; commuter service; long-distance Amtrak service; State-supported
service; each intercity train route, including Autotrain; and commercial activities including contract operations: Provided further, That the budget, business plan and the 5-Year Financial Plan shall include a description of work to be funded, along with
cost estimates and an estimated timetable for completion of the projects covered by these plans: Provided further, That the budget, business plan and the 5-Year Financial Plan shall include annual information on the maintenance, refurbishment,
replacement, and expansion for all Amtrak rolling stock consistent with the comprehensive fleet plan: Provided further, That the Corporation shall provide semiannual reports in electronic format regarding the pending business plan, which shall
describe the work completed to date, any changes to the business plan, and the reasons for such changes, and shall identify
all sole-source contract awards which shall be accompanied by a justification as to why said contract was awarded on a sole-source
basis, as well as progress against the milestones and target dates of the 2011 performance improvement plan: Provided further, That the Corporation's budget, business plan, 5-Year Financial Plan, semiannual reports, and all subsequent supplemental
plans shall be displayed on the Corporation's Web site within a reasonable timeframe following their submission to the appropriate
entities: Provided further, That these plans shall be accompanied by a comprehensive fleet plan for all Amtrak rolling stock which shall address the
Corporation's detailed plans and timeframes for the maintenance, refurbishment, replacement, and expansion of the Amtrak fleet:
Provided further, That said fleet plan shall establish year-specific goals and milestones and discuss potential, current, and preferred financing
options for all such activities: Provided further, That none of the funds under this heading may be obligated or expended until the Corporation agrees to continue abiding
by the provisions of paragraphs 1, 2, 5, 9, and 11 of the summary of conditions for the direct loan agreement of June 28,
2002, in the same manner as in effect on the date of enactment of this Act: Provided further, That none of the funds provided in this Act may be used after March 1, 2012, to support any route on which Amtrak offers
a discounted fare of more than 50 percent off the normal peak fare: Provided further, That the preceding proviso does not apply to routes where the operating loss as a result of the discount is covered by a
State and the State participates in the setting of fares: Provided further, That the Corporation shall submit to the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations a budget request for fiscal year
2013 in similar format and substance to those submitted by executive agencies of the Federal Government.] (Department of Transportation Appropriations Act, 2012.)

This competitive grant program encourages state participation in its passenger rail service. Under this program, a State
or States may apply for grants for up to 50 percent of the cost of capital investments necessary to support improved intercity
passenger rail service that either requires no operating subsidy or for which the State or States agree to provide any needed
operating subsidy. To qualify for funding, States must include intercity passenger rail service as an integral part of Statewide
transportation planning as required under 23 U.S.C. 135. Additionally, the specific project must be on the Statewide Transportation
Improvement Plan at the time of application.
No new funds are requested for this program in 2013.

Through this program, the Federal Railroad Administration provides capital grants to States to invest and improve intercity
passenger rail service, including the development of new high-speed rail capacity. Activity in this account includes the
$8 billion provided by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and an additional $2.1 billion provided in subsequent
enacted appropriations. No funds are requested in this account for 2013, as the Administration is proposing to include passenger
rail (including high speed rail) within multi-year surface transportation reauthorization. As part of that reauthorization,
a new National Rail System program would be created, funded out a dedicated Multimodal Account of the Transportation Trust
Fund. Activities currently carried out in this account would be continued in 2013 within a new Network Development account.

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, and to also move a number of current General Fund
programs into the Transportation Trust Fund. This schedule reclassifies 2012 estimate and baseline budget authority and outlays
as mandatory, for comparability purposes, and to calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

The Railroad Safety Technology Program provides competitive grants for the deployment of train control technologies to passenger
and freight rail carriers, railroad suppliers, and State and local governments for projects that have a public benefit of
improved railroad safety and efficiency. Projects may include the deployment of train control technologies, train control
component technologies, processor-based technologies, electronically controlled pneumatic brakes, rail integrity inspection
systems, rail integrity warning systems, switch position indicators and monitors, remote control power switch technologies,
track integrity circuit technologies, and other new technologies to improve the safety of railroad systems.
Priority is given to projects that make technologies interoperable between railroad systems; accelerate the deployment of
train control technology on high risk corridors, such as those that have high volumes of hazardous materials shipments, or
over which commuter or passenger trains operate; or benefit both passenger and freight safety and efficiency. Entities need
not have developed plans required under 49 U.S.C. 20156(e)(2) and 20157. However, in order to qualify for a grant under this
program, all applicants must demonstrate that they are currently developing the required plans.
No new funds are requested in this account for fiscal year 2013.

The Secretary of Transportation is authorized to issue [to the Secretary of the Treasury notes or other obligations] direct loans and loan guarantees pursuant to sections [512] 502 through 504 of the Railroad Revitalization and Regulatory Reform Act of 1976 (Public Law 94–210), as amended, [in such amounts and at such times as may be necessary to pay any amounts required pursuant to the guarantee of the principal
amount of obligations under sections 511 through 513 of such Act,] such authority to exist as long as any such [guaranteed obligation] direct loan or loan guarantee is outstanding: Provided, That, pursuant to section 502 of such Act, as amended, no new direct loans or loan guarantee commitments shall be made using Federal
funds for the credit risk premium during fiscal year [2012] 2013. (Department of Transportation Appropriations Act, 2012.)

The Transportation Equity Act of the 21st Century of 1998 established the Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement Financing
loan and loan guarantee program. The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act of 2005: A Legacy for
Users, changed the program to allow direct loan and loan guarantees up to $35,000,000,000 and required that no less than $7,000,000,000
be reserved for projects primarily benefiting freight railroads other than class I carriers. The funding may be used: (1)
to acquire, improve, or rehabilitate intermodal or rail equipment or facilities, including track, components of track, bridges,
yards, buildings, or shops; (2) to refinance debt; or (3) to develop and establish new intermodal or railroad facilities.
No Federal appropriation is required, since a non-Federal infrastructure partner may contribute the subsidy amount (in the
form of a credit risk premium) required by the Credit Reform Act of 1990. Once received, statutorily established investigation
charges are immediately available for appraisals and necessary determinations and findings.

The Administration proposes to include passenger rail programs within surface transportation reauthorization, with a new National
Rail System program, funded out of the Multimodal Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. Funding requested in the System
Preservation and Renewal account will ensure passenger rail assets are maintained to provide safe and reliable life-cycle
service, as well as to continue operating long distance train services. The 2013 budget request includes $1.5 billion for
this account, and over six years, the Administration proposes to invest $12.5 billion. This account consists of three program
areas:
Public Asset Backlog Retirement._Eliminate the backlog of needed repairs and upgrades on public railroad assets, including replacing obsolete infrastructure, facilities, and equipment; and funding costs associated with early buyouts of
existing capital equipment loans and leases.
National Network Service._Fund operating and capital costs associated with the National Passenger Railroad Corporation (Amtrak) long-distance rail passenger
services; capital projects to maintain national reservations, security, mechanical facilities, training centers, and other
assets; and high priority congestion mitigation investments to reduce bottlenecks to reliable long-distance or state-supported
corridor services.
State of Good Repair and Recapitalization._Fund a share of the annualized life-cycle costs of publicly owned infrastructure and equipment, thus keeping those public
assets in good working order and protecting the public's investment over the long-term.
The Administration proposes to move a number of current General Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, as part
of surface transportation reauthorization. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent the new mandatory contract authority
and outlays supporting these programs. PAYGO costs will be calculated as the change between these amounts and reclassified
baseline amounts in the existing General Fund accounts.

The Administration proposes to include passenger rail programs within the surface transportation reauthorization, with a new
National Rail System program, funded out of a dedicated Multimodal Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. Funding requested
in the Network Development account will be used to develop infrastructure, stations, equipment, and capacity needed to initiate
new passenger rail services and substantially upgrade existing corridors. The 2013 budget request includes $1.0 billion for
this account, and over six years, the Administration proposes to invest $34.6 billion. This account consists of four program
areas:
High-Speed Corridor Development._To plan and develop a national system of core express (high frequency, 125 to 250+ miles per hour), regional (medium-high
frequency, 90 to 125 miles per hour), and emerging (2 to 3 daily roundtrips, up to 90 miles per hour) corridors.
Station Development._To plan and develop intermodal stations that will connect passenger rail services to other transportation modes, including
public transit, airports, and non-motorized facilities.
U.S. Rail Equipment Development._To promote interoperability of passenger rail equipment and create economies of scale for domestic passenger equipment manufacturing.
Capacity Building and Transition Assistance._To develop governmental and private institutional capacity and expertise in passenger rail transportation and relieve the
financial burden on states and rail service operators during start-up of new operations. This program also funds activities
to support the implementation of Positive Train Control systems.
The Administration proposes to move a number of current General Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, as part
of surface transportation reauthorization. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent the new mandatory contract authority
and outlays supporting these programs. PAYGO costs will be calculated as the change between these amounts and reclassified

issuer of any preferred stock heretofore sold to the Department to redeem or repurchase such stock upon the payment to the
Department of an amount determined by the Secretary.]SEC. [153]152. None of the funds provided to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation may be used to fund any overtime costs in excess
of $35,000 for any individual employee: Provided, That the president of Amtrak may waive the cap set in the previous proviso for specific employees when the president of
Amtrak determines such a cap poses a risk to the safety and operational efficiency of the system: Provided further, That Amtrak shall notify House and Senate Committees on Appropriations within 30 days of waiving such cap and delineate
the reasons for such waiver.SEC. 153. (a) Schedule of Railroad Safety User fees. The Secretary of Transportation shall prescribe by regulation, for application
in the current fiscal year and in subsequent fiscal years, a schedule of rail safety fees for railroad carriers subject to
Part A of Subtitle V of title 49, United States Code. The fees shall cover the costs of carrying out such Part and Chapter
51 of title 49, United States Code, (transportation of hazardous materials) and shall be imposed fairly on railroad carriers,
in reasonable relationship to appropriate criteria to be developed by the Secretary. The Secretary shall amend this regulation
periodically so as to ensure that the schedule of fees covers such costs.
(b) Collection Procedures. The Secretary shall prescribe procedures to collect the fees. The Secretary may use the services
of a department, agency, or instrumentality of the United States Government or a State or local authority to collect the fees,
and may reimburse the department, agency, or instrumentality, or authority a reasonable amount for its services.

(Department of Transportation Appropriations Act, 2012.)
Federal Transit Administration
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) provides grant funding to State and local governments, public and private transit
operators and other recipients to construct new public transit systems, purchase and maintain transit vehicles and equipment,
subsidize public transit operations, support regional transportation planning efforts, and improve the technology and service
methods used in the delivery of public transportation services. FTA programs advance the Administration's domestic and fiscal
policy priorities and increase the impact of government spending by leveraging place-conscious planning and programming.
To begin to improve the state of transit infrastructure, the Administration proposes $9 billion in Immediate Public Transportation
Investment for 2012. The Administration proposes $6 billon for restoring transit assets to a state of good repair and another
$3 billion for FTA's base formula programs that assist transit agencies in urban and non-urban areas. Building on this investment,
in 2013 as part of the Administration's surface transportation reauthorization proposal, FTA proposes to reformat and restructure
its programs and accounts. These changes reflect the Administration's commitment to improve the state of good repair of bus
and rail transit infrastructure, strengthen the safety oversight of public transportation operators, provide affordable access
to employment centers and social services, and enhance economic opportunities and quality of life for all Americans.
The table below presents actual funding enacted for 2011 and 2012 and requested 2013 funding under the proposed account structure.
Note that the 2013 Budget proposes that all new funding be authorized as mandatory contract authority from the renamed Transportation
Trust Fund. The Budget also adjusts 2011 and 2012 funding for programs that received discretionary General Fund appropriations
as mandatory to create a consistent comparison across years. Additional detail is provided in the program budget schedules
that follow.

The Federal Transit Administration administrative expenses include the salaries, benefits and administrative overhead of
the staffing level necessary to support the agency's operations. No funds are requested in this account for 2013. The Administration
is proposing funding for these programs within multi-year surface transportation reauthorization. As part of that reauthorization
proposal, programs currently administered from this account would be continued in a new Operations and Safety account that
would be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, and to also move a number of current General Fund
programs into the Transportation Trust Fund. This schedule reclassifies 2012 estimate and baseline budget authority and outlays
as mandatory for comparability purposes, and to calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

The Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) New Starts program is the Federal Government's primary source for capital investment
in transit infrastructure that is planned, constructed and operated by State and local government entities. No funds are
requested in this account for 2013. The Administration is proposing funding for these programs within multi-year surface
transportation reauthorization. As part of that reauthorization proposal, programs currently administered from this account
would be continued in a new Transit Expansion and Livable Communities account that would be funded from the Mass Transit Account
of the Transportation Trust Fund.
Also for 2013, FTA proposes a cancellation of $11 million of unobligated balances in this account appropriated prior to 2006
for buses and bus facilities.

The Federal Rail Safety Improvements Act, 2008, (P.L. 110–432, Title VI, Sec. 601), provided authorization for capital and
preventive maintenance projects for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA). Funding will help WMATA address
its reinvestment and maintenance backlog to improve the safety and reliability of service and to expand existing system capacity
to meet growing demand. The Secretary will use his authority to approve grants under this program to ensure that available
funds first address WMATA's most critical safety needs.
For 2013, the Federal Transit Administration proposes a cancellation of $1 million in unobligated balances appropriated in
prior years for the build out of the original rail system.

The 2013 Budget presents the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) proposed reauthorization program and account structure,
including the creation of a new Transit Expansion and Livable Communities account. The account is funded from the Mass Transit
Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. The 2013 Budget request includes $2.4 billion for this account, and over six years,
the Administration proposes to invest $21 billion. The account includes programs dedicated to expanding transit systems and
making communities more livable and sustainable.
These objectives will be accomplished through the following five programs:
New Starts._$2,235.5 million for New Starts, the Federal Government's primary source for capital investment in transit infrastructure
that is planned, constructed and operated by State and local government entities. These projects include heavy rail, light
rail, commuter rail, bus rapid transit and streetcar systems that are implemented in communities across the country. FTA allocates
resources to grantees through a competitive process based on a set of statutory rating criteria.
Transit In the Parks._$26.9 million for transit service on public lands including national parks, national forests, and national wildlife refuges.
Tribal Transit Grants._$15 million for transit services on and around Tribal Reservations.
Livability Demonstration Grants._$30 million for a new program to demonstrate different approaches to making communities more livable and sustainable.
Planning Programs._$140.3 million for formula grants to metropolitan planning organizations and State and local governments for analytical, environmental,
and air quality conformity planning work.
The Administration proposes to move a number of current General Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, as part
of surface transportation reauthorization. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent the new mandatory contract authority
and outlays supporting these programs. PAYGO costs will be calculated as the change between these amounts and reclassified
baseline amounts in the existing General Fund accounts.

The 2013 Budget presents the Federal Transit Administration's proposed reauthorization program and account structure, including
the creation of a new Bus and Rail State of Good Repair account to be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation
Trust Fund. This account replaces the Fixed Guideway Modernization Program and the discretionary Bus and Bus Facilities grant
program. The 2013 Budget request includes $3.2 billion for this account, and over six years, the Administration proposes to
invest $31.6 billion. Funding requested in this account will be distributed through formula grants to local transit agencies
to improve the condition of existing capital assets to a state of good repair.
The Administration proposes to move a number of current General Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, as part
of surface transportation reauthorization. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent the new mandatory contract authority
and outlays supporting these programs. PAYGO costs will be calculated as the change between these amounts and reclassified

public transportation.
National Transit Institute._$3.5 million to support the Institute's training programs for the transit industry on a variety of topics including planning,
operations, safety, and management.
University Transportation Centers._$8 million to support transit research at university transportation centers.
Greenhouse Gas and Energy Reduction Deployment and Demonstration Program._$50 million to complement FTA capital programs with capital grants to transit agencies to implement technologies that reduce
greenhouse gas emissions, improve energy efficiency, reduce dependency on fossil fuels, and increase the use of environmentally
sustainable operations.
Clean Fuels and Environmental Research._$14.7 million to build on the Clean Fuels and Environmental Research and the Research to Reduce Environmental Impacts Programs
that have contributed to the deployment of low emission technologies in public transportation.
The Administration proposes to move a number of current General Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, as part
of surface transportation reauthorization. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent the new mandatory contract authority
and outlays supporting these programs. PAYGO costs will be calculated as the change between these amounts and reclassified

The 2013 Budget presents the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) proposed reauthorization program and account structure,
including the creation of a new Operations and Safety account. Replacing the existing Administrative Expenses account, this
new account is funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund and includes resources for FTA's operating
requirements totaling $121.1 million to fund the salaries, benefits, and administrative overhead for the staffing level necessary
to support FTA's stewardship of Federal funds through technical assistance to grantees during project development and program
implementation, capital project oversight, and grantee compliance with statutory requirements and Federal regulations. Included
in this amount is $8.6 million for a new Transit Safety Office in support of the Administration's Rail Transit Safety Oversight
proposal.
To implement a new Rail Transit Safety Oversight Program, $36.3 million is requested to enable states to enforce new regulations
and meet Federal rail transit safety standards, as proposed in the Administrations safety legislation. These resources would
fund teams of Federal and/or State-employed rail safety inspectors to conduct investigations and audits targeted to identify
unsafe vehicles, equipment, control systems, and operating practices.
Over six years, the Administration's proposes $839 million for Operations and $285 million for Safety.
The Administration also proposes to move a number of current General Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, as
part of surface transportation reauthorization. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent the new mandatory contract authority
and outlays supporting these programs. PAYGO costs will be calculated as the change between these amounts and reclassified

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, consistent with the recommendations
of the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. This schedule reclassifies discretionary outlays
from obligation limitations as mandatory outlays from mandatory contract authority for the 2012 estimate. This schedule also
creates a new baseline of mandatory contract authority that is equal to the previous discretionary obligation limitation baseline
to calculate the spending increase above the baseline subject to PAYGO.

The 2013 Budget presents the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) proposed reauthorization program and account structure.
This includes renaming the Formula and Bus Grants account as the Transit Formula Grants account and reorganizing programs
within the account. Some programs previously funded here have been merged with others or moved to other accounts. is account
is funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. The 2013 Budget request includes $4.8 billion for
this account, and over six years, the Administration proposes to invest $45 billion.
Formula Grant funds can be used for all transit capital purposes including bus and railcar purchases, facility repair and
construction, maintenance and where eligible, planning and operating expenses. These funds help existing transit systems provide
safe and reliable public transportation options, promote economically vibrant communities and meet the requirements of the
Americans with Disabilities Act and the Clean Air Act. The 2013 formula grant program structure includes:
Urbanized Area Formula._$3.535 billion to be apportioned by legislative formula to metropolitan areas with populations of 50,000 or more. Funds may
be used for any transit capital purpose, including preventive maintenance for capital assets in urban areas over 200,000 in
population. In urban areas under 200,000, both capital and operating costs are eligible expenditures.
Non-Urbanized Area Formula._$395 million to be apportioned by legislative formula to States based on each State's nonurban areas with populations of less
than 50,000. Available funding may also be used to support intercity bus service as well as to help meet rural and small urban
areas' transit needs.
Growing States and High Density States._$395 million will be apportioned through FTA's Urbanized and Non-Urbanized programs based on authorized funding formulas.
Consolidated Specialized Transportation Grant Program._$405 million. A new program that to replace three existing grant programs for targeted populations (formerly the Elderly
Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities Program, the New Freedom program, and the Job Access and Reverse Commute program).
This new program would continue the goals of these programs by funding alternative forms of transportation where traditional
services are unavailable, inappropriate, or insufficient.
National Transit Data Base (NTD)._$5 million. For operation and maintenance of the NTD, a database of statistics on the transit industry that FTA is legally
required to maintain. NTD data serves as the basis for FTA formula apportionments to its grant recipients.
Emergency Relief Program._$25 million. A new program to help transit agencies restore needed transportation services following disaster events.
The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory, in accordance with the recommendations
of the Presidents National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. Amounts reflected in this schedule represent the
spending increase above baseline that is subject to PAYGO.

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) has a responsibility for advancing the safe and secure
transportation of hazardous materials. PHMSA's Hazardous Materials Safety program is focused on five principal areas. First,
PHMSA provides comprehensive regulations for the safe and secure transportation of hazardous materials. Second, through outreach,
training and distribution of informational materials, PHMSA helps the hazardous materials community understand the regulations
and how to comply with them. Third, PHMSA enforces the regulations to ensure compliance with safety and security standards
by those subject to the regulations. Fourth, PHMSA assists the Nation's response community to plan for and respond to hazardous
materials transportation emergencies. Finally, PHMSA builds on each of these principal areas to reduce overall transportation
risk by establishing a sound and comprehensive technical and analytical foundation to ensure that the program's resources
are effectively applied to minimize serious incidents and fatalities, mitigate the consequences of incidents that occur, and
enhance safety.

The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires the preparation of oil spill response plans by pipeline operators to minimize the environmental
impact of oil spills and to improve public and private sector response capabilities. The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials
Safety Administration (PHMSA) is responsible for the review and approval of these plans as an added measure helping to ensure
that the public and the environment are provided with an adequate level of protection from such spills. PHMSA also seeks
to improve oil spill preparedness and response through data analysis, spill monitoring, pipeline mapping, environmental indexing,
and advanced technologies to detect and prevent leaks from hazardous liquid pipelines.

The Surface Transportation Board (the Board) was created on January 1, 1996, by P.L. 104–88, the Interstate Commerce Commission
Termination Act of 1995 (ICCTA). The Board is specifically responsible for the regulation of the rail and pipeline industries
and certain non-licensing regulation of motor carriers and water carriers.
Rail Carriers._This regulatory oversight encompasses the regulation of rates, mergers and acquisitions, construction, and abandonment of
railroad lines, as well as the planning, analysis, and policy development associated with these activities.
Other Surface Transportation Carriers._This regulatory oversight includes certain regulation of the intercity bus industry and surface pipeline carriers as well
as the rate regulation of water transportation in the non-contiguous domestic trade, household-good carriers, and collectively
determined motor rates.
2013 Program Request._$31.250 million is requested to implement rulemakings and adjudicate the ongoing caseload within the directives and deadlines
set forth by the ICCTA. This includes a request for $1.250 million from reimbursements from offsetting collections of user
fees.
The following paragraph is presented in compliance with Section 703 of the ICCTA. It is presented without change or correction.
The Board's Request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)._The Board had submitted to the Secretary of Transportation and the OMB a 2013 appropriation request of $34.592 million and
a request that $1.250 million from the offsetting collection of user fees be made available to the Board to operate at 170
full time equivalents. The offsetting collection of user fees is based on the costs incurred by the Board for fee-related
activities and is commensurate with the costs of processing parties' submissions. In past fiscal years, the Board received
both an appropriation and authorization for offsetting collections to be made available to the appropriation for the Board's
expenses. The 2013 Budget request reflects offsetting collections as a credit to the appropriation received, to the extent
that they are collected.
This level of funding is necessary to implement rulemakings and adjudicate the ongoing caseload within the deadlines imposed
by ICCTA. The Board requires adequate resources to perform key functions under the ICCTA, including rail rate reasonableness
oversight; the processing of rail consolidations, abandonments, and other restructuring proposals; and the resolution of non-rail
matters. This request also includes staffing and resources required to implement the Board's expanded jurisdiction with respect
to regulation of passenger rail service under the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 (P.L. No. 110–432)
and the enhancement of the Board's audit program to monitor the financial condition of the Nation's railroads.

The Maritime Security Program provides direct payments to U.S. flag ship operators engaged in foreign commerce to partially
offset the higher operating costs of U.S. registry. The purpose of the program is to establish and sustain a fleet of active
ships that are privately owned, commercially viable, and militarily useful to meet national defense and other emergency sealift
requirements. Participating operators are required to make their ships and commercial transportation resources available upon
request by the Secretary of Defense during times of war or national emergency. Commercial transportation resources include
ships, logistics management services, port terminal facilities, and U.S. citizen merchant mariners to crew both commercial
and government-owned merchant ships.

Ocean freight differential (OFD) is the difference in ocean freight cost between U.S flag vessels and foreign flag vessels.
When the Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) transport certain government-sponsored
food aid shipments to international benficiaries, the cargo prefererence provisions in Section 901 of the Merchant Marine
Act required that at least 50 percent of this cargo be shipped on U.S. flag vessels. P.L. 99–108 amended this requirement
by increasing the minimum tonnage for food aid shipments that must be shipped on U.S. flag vessels from 50 to 75 percent,
and by requiring the Maritime Administration (MARAD) to reimburse USDA and USAID for the increase in ocean freight cost associated
with this expanded U.S. flag vessel preference .
USDA and USAID pay all ocean shipping costs for international food assistance through the Commodity Credit Corporation, including
the OFD associated with shipping the first 50 percent of cargo on U.S. flag vessels. The payment of these differential freight
rates by the shipping agencies encourage ship operators to retain U.S. flag registry. MARAD reimburses the Commodity Credit
Corporation for the additional OFD associated with shipping more than 50 percent of food aid cargo on U.S. flag vessels (incremental
OFD). In addition, in any fiscal year in which shipping costs exceed 20 percent of total program costs (total shipping costs
plus total value of commodities shipped), MARAD is required to reimburse shipping costs that exceed 20 percent of the total
program costs (excess 20 percent OFD). The Commodity Credit Corporation receives these reimbursements from MARAD and returns
them to USDA and USAID to fund additional food assistance procurements. MARAD is funded by mandatory appropriation of new
borrowing authority commensurate with estimates for freight differential reimbursement in the budget year.

The Maritime Administration is authorized to reactivate, maintain, operate, and deactivate government-owned merchant vessels
comprising the National Defense Reserve Fleet (NDRF) and the Ready Reserve Force (RRF), a subset of the NDRF. Resources for
RRF vessel maintenance, preservation, activation and operation costs, as well as RRF infrastructure support costs and additional
Department of Defense/Navy-sponsored sealift activities and special projects, are provided by reimbursement from the Department
of National Defense Sealift Fund. Until 2010, interagency agreement transactions to fund and administer these programs were
reflected in this fund. Beginning in 2011, these interagency agreement transactions are instead reflected in the RRF account.
This fund is also authorized for the receipt of sales proceeds from the disposition of obsolete vessels. Direct appropriations
for the disposal of obsolete government-owned merchant vessels are provided to a separate account within the ship disposal
program.

The Martime Guaranteed Loan (Title XI) program provides for a full faith and credit guarantee of debt obligations issued by
U.S or foreign shipowners to finance or refinance either U.S.-flag vessels or eligible export vessels constructed, reconstructed,
or reconditioned in U.S. shipyards; or debt obligations issued by U.S. shipyard owners to finance the modernization of U.S.
shipbuilding technology at shipyard facilities located in the United States. As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act
of 1990, this account also includes the subsidy costs associated with loan guarantee commitments made in 1992 and subsequent
years which are estimated on a present value basis. The account also reflects the administrative expenses of the program which
are estimated on a cash basis. Funds for administrative expenses are appropriated to this account, then paid to the Maritime
Administration's Operations and Training account.
No new subsidy funds for loan guarantees are requested for 2013.
