The Office of the Secretary's (OST) National Infrastructure Investments program, also known as the Transportation Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) program, provides funding for grant awards or credit assistance on a competitive basis for capital investments in surface transportation infrastructure that will have a significant impact on the Nation, a metropolitan area or a region. No funds are requested in this account for FY 2015. The Administration is proposing funding for this program within the multi-year surface transportation reauthorization. As part of that reauthorization proposal, programs currently administered from this account would be continued in a new National Infrastructure Investments Trust Fund account that would be funded from the Multimodal Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

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 (EAS) program and rural airport improvements. In addition, the FAA Modernization and Reauthorization Act (P.L. 112–95) requires that, in any fiscal year, overflight fees collected in excess of $50 million will be available to carry out the EAS program.

The FY 2015 Budget presents the Office of the Secretary's proposed reauthorization program and account structure, including the creation of a new National Infrastructure Investments account, also known as the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) program. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Multimodal Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. The FY 2015 Budget request includes $1.25 billion for this account. For FY 2015, this account provides funding for grant awards or credit assistance on a competitive basis for capital investments in surface transportation infrastructure that will have a significant impact on the Nation, a metropolitan area or a region.

The Administration proposes to move a number of current General Fund programs into the Transportation Trust Fund, as part of the 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.

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 FY 2015, $155 million is requested from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund for Payments to Air Carriers.

For 2015, the Budget requests $9,750 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 $92 million in overflight fees will be collected in 2015.

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 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. Current premiums are capped, and FAA does not collect enough premiums to cover its potential risk. The Budget includes outlays reflecting probabilistic estimates of losses for the aviation war risk insurance program. The authority to provide aviation war risk insurance expires on September 30, 2014. The Administration plans to submit a legislative proposal to reform the Aviation War Risk Insurance Program. The Administration's reform proposal will request permanent authority that will not require a future reauthorization. The legislative proposal returns U.S. air carriers to the commercial aviation insurance market for most of their terrorism and war risk insurance coverage. However, the U.S. Government will continue to provide coverage for losses associated with terrorist attacks involving the use of nuclear, bio- and/or radioactive (NBCR) weapons, as this coverage is not commercially available. Under the proposal, the Administration will charge a premium commensurate with the financial risk being assumed for the NBCR coverage. For this reason, this proposal is largely budget neutral. The proposal will also allow the Administration to react immediately to future market failures, if any, by providing the Secretary of Transportation with authority to provide full aviation war risk insurance for ninety (90) days in the event of a widespread cancellation of coverage by the private insurance market, similar to the one experienced immediately following the attacks of September 11, 2001. In addition, the proposal will extend the "Non-Premium War Risk Insurance Program" that ensures air carriers can obtain the necessary insurance to operate under Department of Defense contracts in support of national defense.

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, 2014.

The status of the fund is as follows:

Subchapter I of chapter 471, title 49, U.S. Code provides for airport improvement grants, including those emphasizing capacity development, safety and security needs; and chapter 475 of title 49 provides for grants for aircraft noise compatibility planning and programs. The FY 2015 budget request proposes to lower funding for the airport grants program to $2.9 billion, offset in part by eliminating passenger and cargo entitlement funding for large 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 all commercial service airports to increase the non-Federal Passenger Facility Charge, thereby giving airports greater flexibility to generate their own revenue. The combination of these changes to the AIP and PFC programs will allow airports to effectively transition to a reduced AIP level without hindering their ability to meet existing capital needs of the national airport system.

(Department of Transportation Appropriations Act, 2014.)

Federal Highway Administration

The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) provided two years of stable funding and has helped create jobs, strengthened our transportation system, and grown our economy. However, MAP-21 will expire October 1, 2014. To spur further economic growth and allow States to initiate sound multi-year investments, the 2015 Budget proposes a four-year, $302 billion surface transportation reauthorization package to support critical infrastructure projects and create jobs, while improving America's roads, bridges, transit systems, and railways. The reauthorization proposal will also include reforms to improve the review process and delivery of infrastructure projects; support American exports by improving movement within the Nation's freight networks; increase economic mobility by linking economically isolated communities to job opportunities; improve regional coordination by Metropolitan Planning Organizations to stimulate economic development; and advance the Climate Action Plan by building more resilient infrastructure, and encouraging sounder transportation planning.

In summary, the 2015 Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Budget consists of $48,562 million in new budget authority and $45,630 million in outlays (with both totals excluding transfers from the General Fund).

The following table reflects the total funding for all FHWA programs.

The Emergency Relief program receives $100 million annually in mandatory funds in the Federal-aid Highways account. The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act of 2005: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU); and Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), enacted July 6, 2012, authorized the program to receive additional General Fund discretionary funding as needed. In 2012, $1,662 million was enacted to remain available until expended, and in 2013, $2,022 million was enacted to remain available until expended, both for necessary expenses resulting from major disasters declared pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.).

No further appropriations are requested for this account in 2015.

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 were 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, which 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 42,000 miles of pavement across the United States have been improved. Of the 12,914 highway projects for which Recovery Act funds were obligated, 1,294 projects are under construction and 11,620 projects have been completed.

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 to rename the Highway Trust Fund as the Transportation Trust Fund, and create new Rail and Multimodal accounts to finance intercity passenger and freight rail investments, as well as competitively awarded surface transportation grants.

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 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 Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (Public Law 112–141) authorized transfers into the Transportation Trust Fund of $2.4 billion from the Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Trust Fund in 2013, $6.2 billion from the General Fund in 2013, and $12.6 billion from the General Fund in 2014. The Budget reflects these transfers less sequestration reductions, and also proposes to transfer an additional $150 billion over four years into the Transportation Trust Fund to maintain trust fund solvency and pay for increased outlays associated with the Administration's rail and surface transportation reauthorization proposals. The $150 billion reinvests the transition revenue from pro-growth business tax reform to fully offset both baseline solvency needs and the increased cost of the proposed reauthorization.

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. All programs included within FAH are proposed to be financed from the Highway Account of the Transportation Trust Fund (currently 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 current authorization for Federal surface transportation programs (the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act, or MAP-21) was enacted on July 6, 2012. MAP-21 provided two years of stable funding and has helped create jobs, strengthened our transportation system, and grown our economy. However, MAP-21 will expire October 1, 2014. To spur further economic growth and allow States to initiate sound multi-year investments, the 2015 Budget proposes a four-year, $302 billion surface transportation reauthorization package to support critical infrastructure projects and create jobs, while improving America's roads, bridges, transit systems, and railways. The reauthorization proposal will also include reforms to improve the review process and delivery of infrastructure projects; support American exports by improving movement within the Nation's freight networks; increase economic mobility by linking economically isolated communities to job opportunities; improve regional coordination by Metropolitan Planning Organizations to stimulate economic development; and advance the Climate Action Plan by building more resilient infrastructure, and encouraging sounder transportation planning.

The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) 2015 budget consists of the following programs: Highway Safety Improvement Program; National Highway Performance Program; Surface Transportation Program; Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program; Metropolitan Transportation Planning Program; Transportation Alternatives Program; Federal Lands and Tribal Transportation Programs; Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) Program; Freight Program; Critical Immediate Investments Program; Research, Technology and Education Program; and Federal Allocation Programs.

Highway Safety Improvement Program._The performance-based Highway Safety Improvement Program ($2.5 billion) provides funding to significantly reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads, including non-State-owned public roads and roads on Tribal land, and the program is directly tied to the Department's safety goal and Roadway Safety Plan principles. The request represents a slight increase over the MAP-21 2014 safety program. Improving roadway safety is a top priority of the Department, and has been designated one of DOT's Agency Priority Goals. FHWA, through national leadership and innovation, focuses on improving the safety of roadway infrastructure on all public roads. The program provides a data- and performance-driven strategic approach to improving traffic safety to reduce fatalities and serious injuries. It strengthens coordination among all highway safety modes, including National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) safety programs in conjunction with all Department safety initiatives. It continues the requirement that each State utilize a Strategic Highway Safety Plan. This statewide, coordinated safety plan provides a comprehensive framework for establishing statewide goals, objectives, and performance targets while ensuring the effective use of safety-focused funding.

National Highway Performance Program._The National Highway Performance Program ($22.3 billion) focuses significant Federal resources for the following purposes: to support the condition and performance of the National Highway System (NHS); to support the construction of new facilities on the NHS; and to ensure that investments of Federal-aid funds in highway construction support progress toward the achievement of performance targets for the NHS. The program includes performance management features, holds States accountable for achieving performance targets, and provides flexibility to States for making transportation investment decisions. It is a formula-based program that provides funding to maintain and improve the NHS. MAP-21 redefined the NHS as a network composed of the Interstate System, all principal arterials, intermodal connectors, and roads important to national defense. The redefined NHS now totals approximately 220,000 miles. The NHS provides mobility to the vast majority of the Nation's population and almost all of its commerce. It supports national defense and promotes intermodal connectivity. While NHS mileage accounts for a small portion of the Nation's public road mileage, it carries 55 percent of all vehicular traffic and 97 percent of truck-borne freight. While it comprises 53 percent of U.S. highway border crossings, it handles 98 percent of the value of total truck trade with Canada and Mexico.

Surface Transportation Program._The Surface Transportation Program ($10.3 billion) provides flexible funding that may be used by States and localities for projects to preserve and improve the condition and performance on any Federal-aid highway, bridges on any public road, and transit capital projects, including intercity bus terminals. The flexible nature of this program allows States to direct funding to areas of greatest need while also fostering innovation. This program gives State transportation agencies the ability to target funding to State and local priorities. States will identify projects for funding in consultation with local transportation officials in rural areas and in cooperation with the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) in metropolitan areas.

Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program._The Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) Improvement Program ($2.3 billion) will help States, local governments, and private-sector sponsors reduce highway congestion and harmful emissions, and assist many areas in reaching attainment of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), an environmental priority. The CMAQ program provides a flexible funding source for State and local governments to fund transportation projects and programs that are designed to help localities meet the requirements of the Clean Air Act and its amendments, and help reduce regional congestion on transportation networks. CMAQ investments support transportation projects that are designed to reduce the emissions from mobile sources in areas that have been designated as in nonattainment or in maintenance of the NAAQS by the Environmental Protection Agency. As in MAP-21, the 2015 program also places considerable emphasis on projects that reduce highway congestion.

Metropolitan Transportation Planning Program._The Metropolitan Transportation Planning Program ($320 million) provides funds for use by Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) for multimodal transportation planning and programming in metropolitan areas. Metropolitan planning activities include: the collection and analysis of data on demographics, trends, and system performance; travel demand and system performance forecasting; identification and prioritization of transportation system improvement needs; and coordination of the planning process and decision-making with the public, elected officials, and stakeholder groups.

Transportation Alternatives Program._The Transportation Alternatives Program ($836 million) supports the Department's strategic goal to improve quality of life through policies and investments that increase transportation choices and access to transportation services. Eligible projects include, but are not limited to, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure and safety programs, scenic and historic highway programs, landscaping and scenic beautification, historic preservation, and environmental mitigation.

Federal Lands and Tribal Transportation Programs._The Federal Lands and Tribal Transportation Programs ($1.3 billion) provide funding for transportation projects on Federal and Tribal lands for construction and engineering projects that will: provide multi-modal access to basic community services including safer all-weather access to schools and healthcare facilities for 566 federally-recognized sovereign Tribal governments; improve multimodal access to recreational areas on public lands/national treasures; and expand economic development in and around Federal and Tribal lands while preserving the environment and reducing congestion.

Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) Program._The TIFIA Program ($1.0 billion) provides contract authority for grant loan subsidies and administrative costs to assist with funding nationally or regionally significant transportation projects. The TIFIA Program leverages Federal dollars in a time of scarce budgetary resources, facilitating private participation in transportation projects and encouraging innovative financing mechanisms that help advance projects sooner. This program offers flexible repayment terms and attracts private capital to facilitate transportation projects that would otherwise go unfunded.

Research, Technology, and Education Program._The Research, Technology, and Education (RT&E) Program ($451 million) provides for a comprehensive, nationally-coordinated research, technology, and education program that will advance the Department of Transportation's organizational goals, while accelerating innovation delivery and technology implementation. The proposal carries forward the MAP-21 restructured FHWA research, development and technology activities which include: a highway research and development program; a technology and innovation deployment program; and a training and education activities program. The RT&E Program also supports activities in the areas of safety, infrastructure preservation, operations, environmental sustainability, and policy. FHWA is in a unique leadership position to identify and address issues that require high-risk, long-term research, and research on emerging issues of national significance. FHWA's leadership role is necessary to build effective partnerships to maximize the investment in the transportation system. The entire innovation lifecycle is covered under the RT&E Program umbrella from agenda setting to the deployment of technologies and innovations.

Federal Allocation Programs._This categorization consists of funding ($502 million) for several important programs: Emergency Relief; Territorial and Puerto Rico Highway Program; Construction of Ferry Boats and Ferry Terminal Facilities; On-the-Job Training; Disadvantaged Business Enterprise; Highway Use Tax Evasion Projects; Other Safety-related Programs; Ladders of Opportunity; and Performance Management Data Support Program. The Emergency Relief Program has been funded through a recurring annual authorization of $100 million since 1972. Emergency Relief funding assists Federal, State, Tribal, and local governments with the expense of repairing serious damage to Federal-aid, Tribal, and Federal Lands highways resulting from natural disasters or catastrophic failures. The Territorial and Puerto Rico Highway Program provides funding for critical highway programs in Puerto Rico and the four territories of American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and the United States Virgin Islands. The Construction of Ferry Boats and Ferry Terminal Facilities program provides funding for the construction of ferry boats and ferry terminal facilities which will improve connectivity between NHS segments, provide travel mode options, and reduce congestion. The On-the-Job Training program provides funding for developing, conducting, and administering surface transportation and technology training, including skill improvement programs and job readiness. The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise program provides funding for developing, conducting, and administering training and assistance programs to increase the proficiency of minority businesses to compete, on an equal basis, for contracts and subcontracts. The Highway Use Tax Evasion Projects program provides funding to the Internal Revenue Service, other Federal agencies, and the States to carry out intergovernmental enforcement efforts along with training and research to reduce evasion of payment of motor fuel and other highway use taxes, which are the principal sources for Federal and State highway funding. Other Safety-related Programs provides funding for conducting transportation safety outreach training and education activities. The Performance Management Data Support Program provides funding to assist MPOs, States and the Department in carrying out the performance management requirements contained in Title 23, United States Code, and enables FHWA to provide enhanced data and tools to assist States and MPOs in targeting operational and capital investments strategically, and implement policies effectively in support of the national transportation system.

Freight Program._The President's Budget requests $1.0 billion for a new program providing a dedicated source of funding to improve the delivery of freight projects, which will foster economic growth. This program offers a mechanism to solve project partnership and administration challenges that have proven difficult to address through existing programs. The program will incentivize regional planning by providing funding for multi-modal, multi-jurisdictional and corridor-based projects, and by requiring the development of statewide freight plans with regional planning participation.

The Critical Immediate Investments Program (CIIP)._The President's Budget provides $4.9 billion as part of the "Fix-it-First" initiative to focus on the reconstruction, restoration, rehabilitation, preservation or safety improvement of existing highway assets. The program will reduce the number of structurally deficient Interstate Highway System (IHS) bridges, target safety investments where Federal infrastructure safety funds are not frequently used and support a state of good repair on the National Highway System (NHS).

The Administration proposes to reclassify all surface transportation outlays as mandatory. This schedule reclassifies discretionary outlays from obligation limitations as mandatory outlays from mandatory contract authority for the 2014 enacted levels. 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.

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 accomplishes this mission by reducing fatalities and property losses associated with commercial motor vehicles through education, regulation, enforcement, and research and innovative technology, thereby achieving a safer and more secure transportation environment. FMCSA is also 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. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) also supports States by conducting training for State agency personnel to accomplish motor carrier safety objectives. In addition, FMCSA reviews State commercial driver's license (CDL) oversight activities to prevent unqualified drivers from being issued CDLs, and is initiating an Innovative Technology program to improve the safety and productivity of commercial vehicles and drivers. The Motor Carriers Safety Grants account maintains the Agency's individual grants under the Compliance, Safety and Accountability Program.

The Operations and Programs account provides the necessary resources to support program and administrative activities for motor carrier safety. As proposed in the multi-year surface transportation authorization legislation, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) will continue to 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 continuation of the Compliance, Safety and Accountability Program; regulation and enforcement of movers of household goods, 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, investment in research and technology, safety outreach and education, and the safety and consumer telephone hotline. The FY 2015 funding request reflects significant expansion of agency efforts to enhance motor coach safety.

The Vehicle Safety programs support 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 NHTSA programs through 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 reducing crashes through vehicle-to-vehicle communication system and active safety technologies.

No funds are requested in this account for 2015. The Administration is proposing funding for these programs within the multi-year surface transportation reauthorization. As part of that reauthorization proposal, programs currently administered from this account would be continued in an Operations and Research account that would be funded from the Highway Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The 2015 Budget presents the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's proposed reauthorization program and account structure, including the creation of a new Transportation Trust Fund account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Highway Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The Highway Safety Research and Development programs support 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 rider safety, pedestrian and bicycle safety, pupil transportation, young and older driver safety, and development of improved accident investigation procedures.

NHTSA will continue its efforts to further quantify the magnitude and nature of the emerging problem of distracted driving, assess the impact of distraction on driver behavior and driving performance, and inform public attitudes and opinions about distraction. In addition, NHTSA will continue to analyze the impact of product design on the potential for driver distraction, and assess how to effectively manage driver workload to reduce distraction.

NHTSA will continue to operate 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. Finally, NHTSA will improve its vital data collection and analysis which form the basis of its research, rulemaking, and performance measurement activities.

The 2015 Budget presents the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's proposed reauthorization program and account structure, including the creation of a new Transportation Trust Fund account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Highway Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

NHTSA provides grants to States for activities related to the promotion of highway traffic safety. Contingent upon enactment of multi-year surface transportation authorization legislation, the agency would receive $577,000,000 for these grant programs to remain available until expended. Under Section 402, the agency supports State highway safety programs, approved by the Secretary, which are designed to reduce traffic accidents and the resulting deaths, injuries and property damage. The agency will continue to implement and promote the use of performance measures and targets as a condition of approval in these programs and to ensure efficient and effective use of funds. The agency also will use dedicated funds from the program to support high visibility enforcement campaigns in the States that promote the use of seat belts and the reduction of drunk driving. Under Section 405, the agency will make grant awards to States that focus on specific national priority traffic safety areas aimed at reducing highway deaths and injuries. The agency will make grants to States that develop qualifying plans and complying laws in accordance with the statutory criteria. The focus areas under the grant program support occupant protection, state traffic safety information system improvements, impaired driving countermeasures, distracted driving, motorcyclist safety, and state graduated driving licensing programs.

Funding requested in the Railroad Research and Development Program provides science and technology support for the Federal Railroad Administration's rail safety rulemaking and enforcement efforts. It also identifies and develops emerging technologies for the rail industry to adopt voluntarily. In addition to improving safety, the program contributes significantly towards achieving the Department of Transportation's (DOT) other strategic goals, e.g., state of good repair. The program focuses on the following areas of research:

Track Program._To reduce derailments due to track related causes.

Rolling Stock Program._To reduce derailments due to equipment failures, to minimize the consequences of derailments, and to minimize hazardous material releases.

Train Control and Communication._To reduce train collisions by facilitating the implementation of Positive Train Control and to reduce highway-rail grade crossing and trespass accidents.

Human Factors Program._To reduce accidents caused by human error.

Railroad System Issues Program._To prioritize research and development projects on the basis of relevance to safety risk reduction and other DOT goals.

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, FRA received an advance appropriation of $20 million for 2001, 2002, and 2003. In 2001, the Congress specified that the $20 million advance appropriation for the Farley Building be used exclusively for fire and life safety initiatives. No new funds are requested for this program in fiscal year 2015.

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 President, with the advice and consent of the Senate. Amtrak is not an agency or instrument of the U.S. Government, although since the railroad's creation FRA has provided it annual grants for operating and capital costs.

Prior to 2006, FRA received annual appropriations in this account for grants to Amtrak. Since that time, FRA has received individual appropriations for capital, operating, and efficiency incentive grants.

In addition, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) provided $1.3 billion to Amtrak for capital grants, of which $450 million was for improving security and $850 million was for improving infrastructure.

In FY 2013, FRA received $112 million in this account from the Disaster Relief Appropriations Act of FY 2013 (P.L. 113–2) to fund Amtrak's recovery from Superstorm Sandy, including $30 million for repair work and $81 million for disaster mitigation projects. FRA also received a $185 million transfer from the Federal Transit Administration for the Hudson Yards disaster resiliency project in New York City.

This competitive grant program encourages state participation in 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 fiscal year 2015.

Through this program, FRA 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 fiscal year 2015. 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 Rail Service Improvement Program account that would be funded from the Rail Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The Railroad Safety Technology Program is a competitive grant program for the deployment of train control technologies to passenger and freight rail carriers, railroad suppliers, and State and local governments. 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 that improve the safety of railroad systems.

FRA has given priority 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.

No new funds are requested in this account for fiscal year 2015.

The FY 2015 budget presents the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) proposed reauthorization program account structure, including the creation of a new Current Passenger Rail Service account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Rail Account of the Transportation Trust Fund (TTF).

Through the Current Passenger Rail Service program, FRA will make grants to ensure passenger rail assets are maintained to provide safe reliable life-cycle service, as well as to continue operating long-distance train services. The FY 2015 budget request includes $2.45 billion for this account, a significant portion of which will be dedicated to "Fix-it-First" activities such as clearing the backlog of state of good repair needs on the Nation's rail system. This program consists of five areas:

Northeast Corridor._$550 million to bring Northeast Corridor infrastructure and equipment into a state of good repair, thus enabling future growth and service improvement.

State Corridors._$225 million to replace obsolete equipment on State-supported corridors and to facilitate efficient transition to financial control for these corridors to States. This program area is temporary, and will be phased out by FY 2018 as these transitional activites are completed.

Long-Distance Routes._$850 million to continue operations of the Nation's important long-distance routes.

National Assets, Legacy Debt, and Amtrak Positive Train Control._$475 million to improve efficiency of the Nation's "backbone" rail facilities, make payments on Amtrak's legacy debt, and implement Positive Train Control (PTC) on Amtrak routes.

Stations—American's with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliance._$350 million to bring stations into compliance with requirements of the ADA. This program area is temporary, and will be phased out by FY 2018 as these transitional activities are completed.

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 2015 Budget presents the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) proposed reauthorization program and account structure, including the creation of a new Rail Service Improvement Program account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Rail Account of the Transportation Trust Fund (TTF).

Through this account, FRA will make grants to develop high-performance rail networks throughout the U.S.; to fund Positive Train Control for commuter railroads; and to support network planning and workforce development. The FY 2015 budget request includes $2.325 billion for this account. This program consists of four areas:

Passenger Corridors.—$1,300 million to develop high-performance rail networks through construction of new corridors, substantial improvements to existing corridors, and mitigation of passenger train congestion at critical "chokepoints."

Commuter Railroads Positive Train Control (PTC) Compliance.—$825 million to implement PTC systems on commuter railroads. This program area is temporary, and will be phased out by FY 2018 as these transitional activities are completed.

Local Rail Facilities and Safety.—$125 million to help mitigate the impact of rail in local communities through rail line relocation, grade crossing enhancements, and investments in short line railroad infrastructure.

Planning and Workforce.—$75 million to develop comprehensive plans that will guide future investments in the Nation's rail system and to develop the workforce and technology necessary for advancing America's rail industry.

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 cost will be calculated as the change between these amounts and reclassified baseline amounts in the existing General Fund accounts.

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 enhance public transportation across the United States. FTA programs fund the construction of new public transit systems, purchase and maintain transit vehicles and equipment, subsidize limited public transit operations, support regional transportation planning efforts, and improve technology and service methods critical to the delivery of public transportation. In 2013, FTA's programs were significantly changed by passage of a new surface transportation authorization law—Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21). MAP-21 provided new authority to strengthen public transportation safety and provided a renewed focus on reinvesting in and modernizing transit assets to help bring transit systems throughout the country into a state of good repair.

FTA's budget proposal structures agency programs and accounts consistent with a reauthorization of MAP-21, with some new areas of emphasis such as capital investments for growing communities and expanded workforce development activities. The Administration proposes $17.6 billion for FTA in 2015. This proposal includes $13.9 billion to support FTA's base formula programs that provide assistance to transit agencies in both urban and rural areas, with an additional investment in programs improving the state of good repair of rail transit and recapitalizing bus and bus facilities. The Administration proposes $2.5 billion in new budget authority for Capital Investment Grants, to support new fixed guideway investments (New Starts and Small Starts) as well as projects aimed at improving or restoring the core capacity of existing fixed guideway systems. In addition, the Administration proposes $500 million for a new program to support the development of bus rapid transit services in fast growing areas.

The Administration's proposal demonstrates a strong commitment to build on the strengths of MAP-21 to improve the condition and safety of transit while enhancing economic opportunities and quality of life for all Americans. The table below presents actual funding enacted for 2013and 2014 and the requested 2015 funding. Note that the 2015 Budget proposes renaming the Highway Trust Fund the Transportation Trust Fund. Additional detail is provided in the program budget schedules that follow.

The Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Administrative Expenses appropriation provides resources for salaries, benefits and administrative expenses to carry out the Agency's stewardship of Federal funds, including: technical assistance to grantees during project development and program implementation, capital project oversight and grantee compliance, staffing the Office of Safety and Oversight to develop and administer a State Safety Oversight program funded through the Transit Formula Grants account, and support for Transit Asset Management activities, which include developing objective standards to measure capital asset condition and collecting data on the asset condition of FTA's grantees. The Administration proposes funding these programs within a multi-year surface transportation reauthorization. As part of that reauthorization proposal, FTA administrative expenses currently administered from this account would be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund within the Transit Formula Grants account.

The Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Capital Investment Grants program is designed to increase the capacity of local transit networks and to meet ridership demands in communities across the nation. These objectives of this program are accomplished by supporting the construction of new fixed guideway systems or extensions to fixed guideways, corridor-based bus rapid transit systems, and core capacity improvement projects. These projects include heavy rail, light rail, commuter rail, bus rapid transit, ferries, and streetcar systems. FTA allocates resources to grantees through a multi-year, multi-step competitive process. Prior to funding, each project is required to obtain an acceptable rating under a set of statutorily defined criteria that examine project merit and local financial commitment. The Administration is proposing to fund the Capital Investment Grants program within a multi-year surface transportation reauthorization. As part of that reauthorization proposal, programs currently administered from this account would be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The Federal Transit Administration research programs include discretionary grant support for the National Research Program, Transit Cooperative Research, the National Transit Institute, and University Transportation Centers' research. No funds are requested in this account for FY 2015. The Administration is proposing funding 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 Research and Training account that would be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The Public Transportation Emergency Relief Program helps transit agencies restore needed transportation services immediately following disaster events. Both capital and operating costs are eligible for funding following an emergency; however, this program does not replace the Federal Emergency Management Agency's capital assistance program. FTA administers the 2013 $10.9 billion supplemental appropriation (adjusted to $10.2 billion after sequestration and the transfer of funds to the Office of the Inspector General and the Federal Railroad Administration) provided by the Disaster Relief Appropriations Act, 2013 (Public Law 113–2) following Hurricane Sandy through this account. The Hurricane Sandy funds are only available for emergency relief, recovery and resiliency projects in the areas impacted by Hurricane Sandy. No funds are requested in this account for 2015. The Administration is proposing to fund this program within a multi-year surface transportation reauthorization. As part of the reauthorization proposal, funding from this account will be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The Technical Assistance and Standard Development program enables FTA to provide technical assistance to the public transportation industry and to develop standards for transit service provision, with an emphasis on improving access for all individuals and transportation equity. Through this program, FTA is able to assist grantees to more effectively and efficiently provide public transportation and administer Federal funding in compliance with the law. No funds are requested in this account for FY 2015. The Administration is proposing funding for this program 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 Research and Training account that would be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 provided $6.9 billion to fund transit capital assistance to create jobs to bolster the American economy. Transit capital assistance was provided through urbanized area formula grants, non-urbanized area formula grants, and discretionary Tribal Transit grants. Funds were used for eligible capital projects, preventive maintenance, and to purchase buses and rail rolling stock. Funds were also used for a new discretionary grant program, Transportation Investments in Greenhouse Gas and Energy Reduction, to increase the use of environmentally sustainable operations in the public transportation sector. This schedule shows the obligation and outlay of remaining amounts made available for administration and oversight of these formula apportionments and discretionary grant awards and the associated capital and preventive maintenance projects and vehicle procurements.

The 2015 Budget presents the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) proposed reauthorization program and account structure, including the creation of a new Capital Investment Grants account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The FY 2015 Budget includes $2.5 billion for the Capital Investment Grants program to increase the capacity of the nation's transit network and meet ridership demands in many communities. This is accomplished by supporting the construction of new fixed guideway systems or extensions to fixed guideways, corridor-based bus rapid transit systems, and core capacity improvement projects. These projects include heavy rail, light rail, commuter rail, bus rapid transit, ferries, and streetcar systems that are administered by communities across the country. FTA allocates resources to grantees through a multi-year, multi-step competitive process. Prior to funding, each project is required to obtain an acceptable rating under a set of statutorily defined criteria that examine project merit and local financial commitment.

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 FY 2015 Budget presents FTA's program authorization and account structure, including the creation of a new account for the Rapid Growth Area Bus Rapid Transit Corridor Program. The Administration proposed to fund this account from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. This newly proposed discretionary grants program will support the mobility needs of fast growing cities across the country to get ahead of transportation problems during early periods of population and economic growth. This program is designed to quickly put Federal funds to work in these communities and support intelligent infrastructure investment by encouraging multi-modal approaches to transportation planning.

This program helps transit agencies restore needed transportation services immediately following disaster events. Both capital and operating costs are elegible for funding following an emergency; however, this program does not replace the Federal Emergency Management Agency's capital assistance program. FTA administers the FY 2013 $10.9 billion supplemental appropriation (adjusted to $10.2 billion after sequestration and the transfer of funds to the Office of the Inspector General and the Federal Railroad Administration) provided by the Disaster Relief Appropriations Act, 2013 (Public Law 113–2) following Hurricane Sandy through this account. The Hurricane Sandy funds are only available for emergency relief, recovery and resiliency projects in the areas impacted by Hurricane Sandy. The emergency funding for Hurricane Sandy relief was appropriated from the General Fund.

The FY 2015 Budget presents FTA's proposed reauthorization program and account structure, including the creation of a new Transit Research and Training account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund. The FY 2015 Budget request includes $60 million for this account. For 2015, this account's programs include:

Research.—$26 million. This program supports research activities that improve the safety, reliability, efficiency, and sustainability of public transportation by investing in the development, testing, and deployment of innovative technologies, materials, and processes.

Transit Cooperative Research Program.—$7 million. This program provides funding to the National Academy of Sciences to conduct investigative research on subjects related to public transportation.

Technical Assistance.—$7 million. This program enables FTA to provide technical assistance to the public transportation industry, with an emphasis on improving access and transportation equity for all individuals. Through this program, FTA is able to assist grantees to more effectively and efficiently provide public transportation and to administer Federal funding in compliance with the law.

Human Resources and Training.—$20 million. This program enables FTA to carry out human resource and training activities within the transit industry, as well as to establish a competitive workforce development grant program. FTA's goal is to improve the skill-sets, knowledge, and abilities of transit industry employees that operate increasingly complex vehicle and equipment systems as well as building new pathways into the transit industry for job-seekers.

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.

FTA's 2015 budget request builds upon the successes of the previous authorization, MAP-21, which provided two years of stable funding for transit programs. The account structure is generally comparable to FTA's funding under MAP-21. The Transit Formula Grants account is funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

Transit Formula Grants funds can be used for transit capital purposes including bus and rail car purchases, facility repair and construction, as well as maintenance, and where eligible, planning and operating expenses. These funds help existing transit systems provide safe and reliable transportation options, and promote economically vibrant communities. The 2015 Budget request includes $13.914 billion for Transit Formula Grants. The 2015 formula grant program structure includes:

Urbanized Area Formula._$4.563 billion. For formula grants to urbanized areas with populations of 50,000 or more. Funds may be used for any transit capital purpose. Operating costs continue to be eligible expenses for all urban areas under 200,000 in population; and, in certain circumstances, operating costs may be eligible expenses in urban areas with populations over 200,000. Additionally, Urbanized Area grants may be used to support Job Access and Reverse Commute activities.

State Safety Oversight Program._$23 million. Each State with rail systems not regulated by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) will meet requirements for a State Safety Oversight (SSO) program. To aid grantees in meeting new requirements, funding will be provided by a formula developed by FTA based on revenue miles, route miles, and passenger miles. The maximum Federal share for these grants is 80 percent.

State of Good Repair Grants._$5.719 billion. For a formula-based capital maintenance program to restore and replace aging transportation infrastructure through reinvestment in existing fixed guideway systems and buses on high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes.

Rural Area Formula._$622 million. For formula grants to provide funds for capital, planning and operating assistance grants for transit service implemented by States in rural areas with populations of less than 50,000. Funding may also be used to support intercity bus service. Additionally, Rural Area grants may be used to support Job Access and Reverse Commute activities. Within this amount, $30 million in formula funds and $5 million in discretionary grant funds will support the Public Transportation on Indian Reservations program and $20 million will support the Appalachian Development Public Transportation Assistance Formula Program.

Growing States and High Density States._$538 million. For funds that are divided between the Urban and Rural Area programs based on the legislative funding formula for this program.

Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities._$264 million. Supports local governments and public and private transportation providers that serve special needs of these specific transit-dependent populations beyond traditional public transportation services, including complementary paratransit service.

Bus and Bus Facilities Grants._$1.939 billion. For formula funding (70%) and discretionary funding (30%) to replace, rehabilitate, and purchase buses and related equipment, and to construct bus-related facilities States may use these funds to supplement Urbanized Area and Rural Area formula grant programs.

Bus Testing Facility._$3 million. Funding supports a facility where all new bus models purchased using FTA capital assistance will be tested for compliance with performance standards for safety, structural integrity, reliability, performance (including braking performance) maintainability, emissions, noise and fuel economy. FTA must develop a Pass/Fail rating system for buses. FTA grantees will not be able use Federal funds to purchase buses that do not receive a "pass" rating.

Planning Programs._$132 million. Funding supports cooperative, continuous, and comprehensive transportation infrastructure investment planning. The program requires that all Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs), and States, develop performance-driven, outcome-based transportation plans.

Transit Oriented Development Pilot._$10.2 million. This new pilot program funds planning for projects that support transit-oriented development associated with new fixed-guideway and core capacity improvement projects.

National Transit Institute._$5 million. To fund projects that enable FTA to partner with higher education to develop and provide training and educational programs to transit employees and others engaged in providing public transit services.

National Transit Data Base (NTD)._$4 million. For operation and maintenance of the NTD, a database of nationwide statistics on the transit industry, which FTA is legally required to maintain under 49 U.S.C. 5335(a)(1)(2). NTD data serves as the basis for FTA formula grant apportionments and is used to track the condition and performance of our Nation's transit infrastructure.

Administrative Expenses._$114.4 million. To fund salaries, benefits and administrative expenses to carry out the FTA's stewardship of federal funds. FTA administrative expenses were provided in prior years in the Administrative Expenses account and funded from the General Fund.

The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires the preparation of spill response plans by operators that store, handle, or transport oil to minimize the environmental impact of oil spills and to improve public and private sector response. The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) reviews response plans submitted by operators of onshore oil pipelines to ensure the plans comply with PHMSA regulations. These plans also must be regularly updated by the operator and submitted for subsequent review by PHMSA. PHMSA also seeks to improve oil spill preparedness and response through data analysis, spill monitoring, mapping pipelines in areas unusually sensitive to environmental damage, and advanced technologies to detect and prevent leaks from hazardous liquid pipelines. These and related activities are funded in part by the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund.

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 non-contiguous domestic trade, household-good carriers, and collectively determined motor rates.

Fiscal Year 2015 Program._$31,500,000 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 $1,250,00 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 2015 appropriation request of $34,411,000 and a request that $1,250,000 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 2015 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. The 2015 Budget proposes international food aid reform that would increase flexibility within P.L. 480 Title II emergency programs, which could, over time, reduce overall volumes of agricultural commodities available for transport on U.S.-flag vessels. Therefore, the Budget requests an additional $25 million, as a component of this reform, for support to mariners and vessel operators in foreign trade and to accelerate the training and credentialing of mariners in occupations deemed critical to sustain a balanced and capable U.S. citizen merchant marine.

Pursuant to 46 U.S.C. 55316, mandatory borrowing authority was provided for MARAD to finance reimbursements through the USDA Commodity Credit Corporation incurred by USDA and USAID for certain ocean freight cost differentials to transport humanitarian food aid cargoes on U.S.-flag vessels instead of on lower cost foreign-flag vessels. Public Law 112–141, the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP 21), eliminated the requirement for the incremental freight differential reimbursement by reducing the U.S. flag cargo preference requirement for humanitarian food aid commodities transported internationally from 75 percent to 50 percent. Public Law 113–76, H.J. Res. 59, The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, repealed MARAD's mandatory borrowing authority, eliminating funding for the 20 percent Excess Cost Differential reimbursement, a program created reimburse USDA and USAID when the cost of ocean transportation and ocean freight differential exceeded 20 percent of the total cost of the commodity being shipped. As a result of these two legislative actions, in FY 2015, there are no ocean freight differential reimbursement requirements.

The Maritime Guaranteed Loan (Title XI) program provides for a full faith and credit guarantee of debt obligations issued by U.S or foreign ship owners to finance or refinance the construction, reconstruction, or reconditioning of U.S.-flag vessels or eligible export vessels in U.S. shipyards; or for a full faith and credit guarantee of debt obligations issued by U.S. shipyard owners to finance the modernization of shipbuilding technology at shipyards 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. This appropriation will provide resources for the administrative expenses of the program, including management of the loan portfolio which has $1.7 billion in loan guarantees and 39 guarantee contracts.
