The Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act (Public Law 114–94) was enacted on December 4, 2015. Among the new provisions included in this Act, is the establishment of a new National Surface Transportation and Innovative Finance Bureau (the Bureau) within the Office of the Secretary of Transportation that will align, coordinate, or consolidate aspects of the U.S. Department of Transportation's (USDOT) existing surface transportation innovative finance programs with or within the new Bureau. The FAST Act calls for the Bureau to fulfill a number of specific responsibilities, including the following: Provide assistance and communicate best practices and financing and funding opportunities to entities eligible under USDOT infrastructure finance programs; Administer the application process for USDOT infrastructure finance programs; Administer the application process for a new Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects program; Reduce uncertainty and delays related to environmental reviews and permitting, as well as project delivery and procurement risks and costs for projects financed by the USDOT infrastructure finance programs and the new Nationally Significant Freight and Highways Projects programs; Increase transparency and the public availability of information regarding projects financed by the USDOT infrastructure finance programs and the new Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects program; and Promote best practices in procurement for projects financed by the USDOT infrastructure finance programs and the new Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects program by developing benchmarks related to procurement. The Bureau will build on a number of actions that USDOT has taken to advance these goals, including the establishment of USDOT's Build America Transportation Investment Center in 2014 as a single point of contact and coordination for states, municipalities and project sponsors looking to utilize federal transportation expertise, apply for federal transportation credit programs, and explore ways to access private capital through public private partnerships. Notably, in their explanatory statement of the FAST Act, Congressional conferees explicitly recognized the accomplishments of the Administration's Build America Investment Initiative to increase infrastructure investment and economic growth. To assist with establishing the Bureau, the FAST Act provides the Secretary with certain authorities to redirect personnel and budgetary resources, if necessary, to support the establishment and effectiveness of the Bureau. These authorities are available for two years. The FAST Act requires that, within 90 days of enactment and in 90-day intervals thereafter, USDOT report to Congress on how these authorities are being implemented, and any additional legislative actions that may be needed. The Bureau will be managed by an Executive Director reporting to the Under Secretary of Transportation for Policy. The FAST Act also establishes a new Council on Credit and Finance (the Council) chaired by the Deputy Secretary, which is charged with the review and approval of innovative finance applications, making recommendations to the Secretary, and reviewing approved projects on a regular basis. The Council may build on the Credit Council that USDOT had previously established through administrative measures.

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 2017. The Administration is proposing funding for this program within the multi-year clean transportation plan proposal. As part of that 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 2017 Budget presents the Office of the Secretary's clean transportation plan proposal and account structure, including the creation of a new National Infrastructure Investments account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Multimodal Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The 2017 Budget request includes $1.25 billion for this account. For 2017, this account's program includes: 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 multi-year clean transportation plan proposal. 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.

In addition to funds made available from any other source to carry out the essential air service program under 49 U.S.C. 41731 through 41742, [$175,000,000] $150,000,000, to be derived from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund, to remain available until expended: Provided, That in determining between or among carriers competing to provide service to a community, the Secretary may consider the relative subsidy requirements of the carriers: Provided further, That basic essential air service minimum requirements shall not include the 15-passenger capacity requirement under subsection 41732(b)(3) of title 49, United States Code: [Provided further, That none of the funds in this Act or any other Act shall be used to enter into a new contract with a community located less than 40 miles from the nearest small hub airport before the Secretary has negotiated with the community over a local cost share:] Provided further, That amounts authorized to be distributed for the essential air service program under subsection 41742(b) of title 49, United States Code, shall be made available immediately from amounts otherwise provided to the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration: Provided further, That the Administrator may reimburse such amounts from fees credited to the account established under section 45303 of title 49, United States Code.

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 2017, $150 million is requested from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund for Payments to Air Carriers.

The following table depicts the total funding for all Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) programs, for which more detail is furnished in the budget schedules:

For 2017, the Budget requests $9,994 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 fund provides direct support for the aviation insurance program (chapter 443 of title 49, U.S. Code). In December 2014, Congress sunset part of the aviation insurance program. Specifically, Congress returned U.S. air carriers to the commercial aviation market for all of their war risk insurance coverage by ending the FAA's authority to provide war risk insurance for a premium. Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 44305, the FAA may provide insurance without premium at the request of the Secretary of Defense or the head of a department, agency, or instrumentality designated by the President when the Secretary of Defense or the designated head agrees to indemnify the Secretary of Transportation against all losses covered by the insurance. The "non-premium" aviation insurance program is authorized through December 31, 2018.

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 2017 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.

For 2017, the Budget proposes $9,994 million for Federal Aviation Administration Operations, of which $7,608 million would be provided from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund.

The Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act (Public Law 114–94), signed into law by President Obama on December 4, 2015, provides five years of stable funding that will create jobs, strengthen our transportation system, grow our economy, and allow States to initiate sound, multi-year investments. The 2017 Budget, which reflects the second year of the five-year FAST Act, provides the needed funding to: improve the safety, condition and performance America's roads and bridges; support American exports by improving movement within the Nation's freight networks; 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 2017 Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Budget consists of $44,025 million in budget authority and $43,531 million in outlays (with both totals excluding transfers from the General Fund).

The table below reflects the budget authority requested for all existing FHWA programs.

In addition to the budget authority provided by the FAST Act, as reflected in the table below, $7,500 million in new budget authority is requested through the 21st Century Clean Transportation Plan investment initiative for the following new FHWA-administered programs: Future Freight System; Climate Smart Performance Program; 21st Century Regions Grants Program; Clean Communities Grant Program; and Resilience Competition.

Inclusive of the 21st Century Clean Transportation Plan proposal, $51,525 million in resources is being requested in 2017 for FHWA.

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 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. As of September 30, 2015, States have expended 100% of Recovery Act obligations and closed 12,585 of 12,913 projects. As of September 30, 2015 Recovery Act funds are cancelled and are no longer available for expenditure. No new budget authority is requested for 2017.

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. The purchase of right-of-way is an eligible expense of the Federal-Aid Highway program.

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. No new budgetary resources are requested in 2017.

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 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 Highway 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 Highway Trust Fund of $2.4 billion from the Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Trust Fund in 2012, $6.2 billion from the General Fund in 2013, and $12.6 billion from the General Fund in 2014. The Highway and Transportation Funding Act of 2014 (Public Law 113–159) authorized transfers into the Highway Trust Fund of $1.0 billion from the LUST Trust Fund in FY 2014, and $9.8 billion from the General Fund in 2014. The Surface Transportation and Veterans Health Care Choice Improvement Act of 2015 (Public Law 114–41) authorized the transfer into the Highway Trust Fund of $8.068 billion from the General Fund of the Treasury in 2015. This transfer was not subject to sequestration. The Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act (Public Law 114–94) authorized the transfer into the Highway Trust Fund of $70.0 billion from the General Fund of the Treasury in 2016. This transfer was not subject to sequestration.

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.

On December 4, 2015, President Obama signed into law the first long-term, fully-funded surface transportation bill in a decade, the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. The President has been very clear that increasing investment in our Nation's transportation infrastructure is a top priority. The five-year FAST Act authorization will make our roads and bridges safer, repair and modernize our aging transportation infrastructure, spur economic growth, and create jobs. Moreover, after years of uncertainty, States and local governments can now move forward with critical transportation projects with the confidence that they will have a Federal partner over the long-term. Moving forward with the FAST Act and the resources requested in this budget will allow States and local governments to make significant, critical investments now—investments that will be costlier if deferred. FHWA programs will continue the focus on safety, streamlines project delivery, and enhanced performance management, while increasing our investment in projects that facilitate the movement of freight, repair structurally deficient bridges, improve safety on rural roads, empower local communities, and provide ladders of opportunity that connect people to employment, education, and services.

The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) 2017 budget consists of the following programs: Highway Safety Improvement Program; National Highway Freight Program; National Highway Performance Program; Surface Transportation Block Grant Program; Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program; Metropolitan Transportation Planning Program; Federal Lands and Tribal Transportation Programs; Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects; Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) 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 modest increase over the Fiscal Year 2015 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. The Highway Safety Improvement Program includes a $230 million targeted set-aside, the Railway-Highway Crossings Program, to fund safety improvements to reduce the number of fatalities, injuries, and crashes at public grade crossings.

National Highway Freight Program.—The National Highway Freight Program ($1.1 billion), is a new formula program established by the FAST Act that will provide States with necessary funds for vital projects that will improve the movement of freight on the National Highway Freight Network, which is comprised of the 41,500-miles Primary Highway Freight System, all other Interstates not on the PHFS, and other State-identified critical rural and urban corridors. The FAST Act requires all States using formula dollars to complete a multimodal State Freight Plan.

National Highway Performance Program.—The National Highway Performance Program ($22.8 billion) is a formula-based program that 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. The 220,000-mile NHS is comprised of rural and urban roads serving major population centers, international border crossings, intermodal transportation facilities, and major travel destinations. The NHS includes the Interstate System, all principal arterials, intermodal connectors, and other roads important to mobility, commerce, national defense, and intermodal connectivity. The NHS provides mobility to the vast majority of the Nation's population and almost all of its commerce ,supports national defense, and promotes intermodal connectivity. While NHS mileage accounts for a small portion of the Nation's public road mileage, it carries 58 percent of all vehicular traffic. The majority of truck-borne freight uses it at some point in its journey. While the NHS comprises 53 percent of of U.S. highway border crossings, it handles 98 percent of the value of total truck trade with Canada and Mexico.

Surface Transportation Block Grant Program.—The Surface Transportation Block Grant Program ($11.4 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. Additionally, projects that expand transportation choice and enhance the transportation experience are eligible, such as, bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure and safety programs, historical preservation, and environmental mitigation. 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 ($2.4 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. To date, each MPO with a transportation management area that serves more than one million people and represents a nonattainment or maintenance area has developed and will continue to update biennially a performance plan to achieve air quality and congestion reduction targets.

Metropolitan Transportation Planning Program.—The Metropolitan Transportation Planning Program ($336 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. The planning process will provide consideration for projects that increase safety, support economic vitality, increase accessibility, mobility, and connectivity, protect and enhance the environment, emphasize the preservation of existing infrastructure, and increase security of the transportation system.

Federal Lands and Tribal Transportation Programs.—The Federal Lands and Tribal Transportation Programs ($1.1 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 multi-modal 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.

Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects.—The Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects ($850 million) program is a new discretionary grant program, established by the FAST Act, for major highway and freight projects that will achieve national transportation objectives. This program will be led by the newly created National Surface Transportation and Innovative Finance Bureau. Selected projects must receive grants of at least $25 million and have a total project cost of $100 million or more.

Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) Program.—The TIFIA Program ($275 million) provides contract authority to cover the subsidy cost of providing credit assistance for 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 ($418 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. FHWA research, development and technology activities include: a highway research and development program; a technology and innovation deployment program; an intelligent transportation systems 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 ($404 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; and Highway Use Tax Evasion Projects. 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.

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. Using take-down funds, 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. 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, investment in research and technology, and safety outreach and education. The 2017 funding request reflects FMCSA's requirements to fund critical safety and operational facility improvements at border and domestic posts, fund important safety and safety mission support training for FMCSA staff, and to support the effective implementation of FMCSA's programs through the implementation of FMCSA's Program Integration Office.

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 2017. The Administration is proposing funding for these programs within the multi-year clean transportation plan. As part of that 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 2017 Budget presents the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's program and account structure. 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. These programs emphasize 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.

NHTSA provides grants to States for activities related to the promotion of highway traffic safety. The Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act provided multi-year surface transportation authorization legislation. For the 2017 Budget the agency is projected to receive $585.372 million 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 include occupant protection, state traffic safety information system improvements, impaired driving countermeasures, distracted driving, motorcyclist safety, state graduated driving licensing and non motorized safety programs.

Funding requested in the Railroad Research and Development Program is focused on improving railroad safety. It provides scientific and engineering 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. The outcomes of the research and development reduced accidents and incidents. The program also supports intercity passenger rail development by providing technical assistance, equipment specifications, proposal evaluations and Buy America compliance. 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.

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

Train Control and Communication.—Reducing train to train collisions and train collisions with objects on the line of grade crossings.

Railroad System Issues Program.—Prioritizing Research and Development (R&D) 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 2017.

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 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 Super storm 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. No funds are requested for this account for 2017.

The Federal Railroad Administration receives appropriations to this account to make quarterly grants to the National Railroad Passenger Corporation for the operation of intercity passenger rail.

No funds are requested for this account in 2017. The Administration is proposing funding for these programs within the multi-year clean transportation plan proposal. As part of that proposal, programs currently administered from this account would be continued in a new Current Passenger Rail Service account that would be funded from the Rail Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

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.

This program provided funds to continue the upgrade of passenger rail service in the corridor between Washington, District of Columbia, and Boston, Massachusetts. Since 2001, capital funding has been provided in the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) appropriation. For 2016, $19 million was provided for grants to Amtrak for shared use infrastructure on the Northeast Corridor identified in the Northeast Corridor Operations Advisory Commission's 5 year capital plan. No funds are requested for this account in 2017. The Administration is proposing funding for these programs within the multi-year clean transportation plan proposal. As part of that proposal, programs currently administered from this account would be continued in a new Current Passenger Rail Account 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.

The Secretary of Transportation is authorized to issue direct loans and loan guarantees pursuant to sections 501 through 504 of the Railroad Revitalization and Regulatory Reform Act of 1976 (Public Law 94–210), as amended, such authority to exist as long as any such 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 2016].

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 FRA to issue direct loan and loan guarantees up to $35,000,000,000, and it required that no less than $7,000,000,000 be reserved for projects primarily benefiting freight railroads other than Class I carriers. The program was expanded by the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 and again by the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act in 2015. 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, (4) to reimburse related planning and design expenses; (5) and to finance (by December 2019) certain economic development related to passenger rail stations. For 2016, $1.96 million was made available to assist Class II and Class III railroads to applicant expenses in preparing to apply and applying for direct loans and loan guarantees.

The 2017 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 according to the authorities provided in the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, specifically FAST Act Sections 11101 and 11103. Section 11101 authorizes Grants to Amtrak including grants for the Northeast Corridor and the National Network, which includes Amtrak's state-supported routes, long-distance routes, and other Amtrak costs not allocated to the Northeast Corridor. Section 11103 authorizes FRA to make grants under the Federal State Partnership for State of Good Repair program to bring publicly-owned or Amtrak-owned infrastructure, equipment, and facilities into a state of good repair. The 2017 Budget includes $1.9 million for Grants to Amtrak and $400 million for Federal State Partnership for State of Good Repair.

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 2015, a new five year surface transportation authorization law was enacted—Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act or the FAST Act. The FAST Act provides steady and predictable funding for five years and 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 builds on the successes of the previous authorization of MAP-21 and includes new features in the FAST Act. The account structure is generally comparable to FTA's funding under MAP-21, except where Congress consolidated programs in other accounts and moved them into the Transit Formula Grants account. The Administration proposes $19.9 billion for FTA in 2017. This proposal includes $9.7 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 through a new discretionary grant program. The budget request also includes funding to help finance the installation of positive train control systems for eligible transit providers. The Administration proposes $ 3.5 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. Within the total, the Budget proposes $6.4 billion in resources for FTA programs in the 21st Century Clean Transportation Plan Investments account.

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 in communities and the quality of life for all Americans. The table below presents actual funding enacted for 2015 and 2016 and the requested 2017 funding. 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 for 560 full-time equivalents employees (FTEs) to carry out the Agency's stewardship of over $19.9 billion in Federal funds. Priorities for the 2017 Administrative Expenses appropriation include enhancement of the Office of Safety and Oversight's workforce to strengthen and expand the framework of the robust State Safety Oversight Program and Safety for all modes of transit, including Accident Investigation Oversight; the implementation of the FAST Act to include required rulemakings, policy updates, and strategic planning; the provision of technical assistance to grantees during project development and program implementation; Capital Project Management Oversight and grantee compliance; and support for Transit Asset Management activities, which includes developing objective standards to measure capital asset condition and collecting data on the asset condition of the FTA grantees. No funds are requested in this account for 2017. The Administration is proposing funding for these programs within the multi-year clean transportation plan proposal. As part of that proposal, programs currently administered from this account will be continued in a new Administrative Expenses account that will be funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

Initiated within the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, this program provided grants to public transit agencies for capital investments to reduce the energy consumption or greenhouse gas emissions of their public transportation operations. Activities have not been funded in this account since 2011. This schedule shows the obligations and outlays of funding made available for this program in fiscal years prior to 2012. In 2017, projects to increase energy efficiency and decrease greenhouse gas emissions can be funded with Urbanized Area Formula grants and Rural Area Formula grants.

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. No funds are requested in this account for 2017. The Administration is proposing funding for these programs within the multi-year clean transportation plan proposal. As part of that proposal, programs currently administered from this account would be continued in a new Capital Investment Grants 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 $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 2017.

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 2017 Budget presents the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) clean transportation plan proposal 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 2017 Budget request includes $3.5 billion for this account to increase the capacity of the nation's transit network and to 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, 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 2017 Budget presents the Federal Transit Administration's clean transportation plan proposal and account structure, including the creation of a new Administrative Expenses account. The Administration proposes to fund this account from the Mass Transit Account of the Transportation Trust Fund.

The 2017 Budget requests $115 million for salaries, benefits and administrative expenses for 560 full-time equivalents employees (FTEs) to carry out the Agency's stewardship of over $19.9 billion in Federal funds. Priorities for the 2017 Administrative Expenses appropriation include enhancement of the Office of Safety and Oversight's workforce to strengthen and expand the framework of the robust State Safety Oversight Program and Safety of all modes of transit, including Accident Investigation Oversight; the implementation of the FAST Act to include required rulemakings, policy updates, and strategic planning; the provision of technical assistance to grantees during project development and program implementation; Capital Project Management Oversight and grantee compliance; and support for Transit Asset Management activities, which includes developing objective standards to measure capital asset condition and collecting data on the asset condition of the FTA grantees.

FTA's 2017 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 2017 Budget request includes $9.734 billion for Transit Formula Grants. The 2017 formula grant program structure includes:

Urbanized Area Formula.—$4.630 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.—$2.550 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.—$632 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.—$544 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.—$268 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.—$720 million. For formula funding (61%) and discretionary funding (39%) 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. Funding also supports low and zero emission bus and bus facilities.

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.—$133 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 million. This 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.

Positive Train Control.—$199 million. For financing the installation of positive train control systems required under section 20157 of title 49, USC.

Public Transportation Innovation.—$28 million. This program provides assistance for projects and activities to advance innovative public transportation research, demonstration, deployment and development and testing, evaluating and analyzing low or no emission vehicle components intended for use in low or no emission vehicles.

Technical Assistance and Workforce Development.—$9 million. This program enables FTA to provide technical assistance to the public transportation industry and to develop stands for transit serve 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.

Pilot Program for Enhanced Mobility.—$3 million. This pilot program assists in financing innovative projects for the transportation disadvantaged that improve the coordination of transportation services and non-emergency medical transportation services.

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is responsible for the Department's Pipeline Safety program. PHMSA provides safety oversight of the nation's 2.6 million miles of gas and hazardous liquid pipelines, which are owned and operated by private industry. PHMSA and its state pipeline safety partners use a data-driven process to identify pipelines and pipeline operators most at risk of failing . They combine to use regulation, inspection and enforcement to reduce the likelihood of harm failing pipelines would have on our communities and the environment.

The Pipeline Safety program encompasses data analysis; damage prevention; education and training; developing and enforcing regulations and standards; research and development; grants to support up to 80 percent of the cost of state pipeline safety programs; and emergency planning and response to accidents. PHMSA passes along nearly all of its operational costs to the pipeline industry through the assessment of fees and use of the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund.

Federal hazardous materials law (49 U.S.C. 5101 et seq.) established a national registration program for shippers and carriers of hazardous materials in 1992. The law also established collection of fees from registrants. These fees finance emergency preparedness planning and training grants; development of training curriculum guidelines for emergency responders and technical assistance to states, political subdivisions, and American Indian tribes; publication and distribution of the Emergency Response Guidebook; and administrative costs for operating the program. The proposed changes to the appropriations language aligns with the FAST Act.

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 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 2017 Budget proposes to increase flexibility of P.L. 480 Title II to respond to food aid emergencies , which could, over time, reduce overall volumes of agricultural commodities available for transport on U.S.-flag vessels. The Maritime Administration requests $186 million for the Maritime Security program base. Additionally, $25 million is requested as a component of the proposal to allow more flexible responses to food aid crises, 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.

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 $3 million in resources for the administrative expenses of the program, including management of the loan portfolio which has $1.4 billion in loan guarantees and approximately 30 guarantee contracts.
