DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Transit Administration (FTA)
Announcement of Fiscal Year 2025 Grants for Buses and Bus
Facilities Program and Fiscal Year 2025 and 2026 Low or No Emission
Program Project Selections
AGENCY: Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice of project selections and implementation guidance.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Transportation's (DOT) Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) announces the award of a total of $2,027,948,082
for 165 projects. This includes $397,665,476 under the FY 2025 Grants
for Buses and Bus Facilities Competitive Program (Bus Competitive
Program) for 62 projects and $1,630,282,606 under the FY 2025 Low or No
Emission (Low-No) Grants Program for 103 projects. This notice provides
administrative guidance on project implementation.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Successful applicants should contact
the appropriate FTA Regional Office for information regarding applying
for the funds or program-specific information. A list of Regional
Offices can be found at https://www.transit.dot.gov/about/regional-offices/regional-offices. Unsuccessful applicants may contact Kirsten
Wiard-Bauer, Office of Program Management, at [email protected]
or (202) 366-2053 within 30 days of this announcement to arrange a
proposal debriefing. Some unsuccessful applicants, such as those who
received an overall rating of Highly Recommended or Ineligible, may
receive feedback only via email. A TDD is available at 1-800-877-8339
(TDD/FIRS).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C.
5339(b)) authorizes FTA to make competitive grants for the Bus
Competitive Program. Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C.
5339(c)) authorizes FTA to make competitive grants for the Low-No
Program.
Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C. 5338(a)(2)(M))
authorized $398,103,239 in FY 2025 funds for the Bus Competitive
Program after an oversight takedown. After the addition of available
prior year funding, the total available funding for the Bus Program in
FY 2025 is $399,330,754.
For FY 2025, $76,512,334 was authorized and appropriated for the FY
2025 Low-No Program, and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act
(IIJA, Pub. L. 117-58) appropriated an additional $1,029,000,000 after
accounting for the authorized takedown for administrative and oversight
expenses and the Office of Inspector General (OIG). For FY 2026,
$1,029,000,000 is appropriated under the IIJA for the Low-No Program.
After the oversight takedown and transfer to the OIG, and the addition
of prior year(s) funding, the total available
[[Page 1857]]
funding for the Low-No Program is $2,140,796,484.
On May 15, 2025, FTA published a joint Notice of Funding
Opportunity (NOFO) announcing the availability of approximately $398
million in FY 2025 Bus Competitive Program funds and approximately
$1.10 billion in Low-No Program funds (90 FR 20737). Consistent with
the NOFO, which stated that FTA ``may award additional funding that is
made available to the programs prior to the announcement of project
selections,'' FTA is electing to allocate a portion of the appropriated
FY 2026 Low-No Program funds, as well as available prior year funds for
both programs. These funds will provide financial assistance to states
and eligible public agencies to replace, rehabilitate, purchase, or
lease buses, vans, and related equipment, and for capital projects to
rehabilitate, purchase, construct, or lease bus-related facilities. For
the Low-No Program, projects must be directly related to low or no-
emission vehicles. In response to the NOFO, FTA received 479 eligible
project proposals requesting approximately $6.8 billion in Federal
funds. Project proposals were evaluated based on each applicant's
responsiveness to the program evaluation criteria outlined in the NOFO.
Based on the criteria in the NOFO, FTA is funding 62 projects, as
shown in Table 1, for a total of $397,665,476 for the Bus Competitive
Program, and 103 projects, as shown in Table 2, for a total of
$1,630,282,606 for the Low-No Program. A minimum of 15 percent of the
amount made available for the Bus Competitive Program is set aside for
projects located in rural areas, which is reflected in FTA's
selections. A statutory cap of 10 percent for any one applicant in the
Bus Competitive Program is reflected as well. A minimum of 25 percent
of the amount made available for the Low-No Program is set aside for
projects related to the acquisition of low-emission buses or bus
facilities.
Recipients selected for competitive funding are required to work
with their FTA Regional Office to submit a grant application in FTA's
Transit Award Management System (TrAMS) for the projects identified in
the attached tables to quickly obligate funds. A discretionary project
identification number has been assigned to each project for tracking
purposes and must be used in the TrAMS application. Grant applications
must include only eligible activities applied for in the original
project application.
When the allocated amount is less than the requested amount,
recipients must reduce scope or scale the project so that a complete
phase or a usable segment of the originally proposed project is
implemented. Amounts may be reduced because they were capped or scaled
due to more funding being requested than available, ineligible expenses
may have been removed from the funded project scope, or funding was
allocated for only the low-emission elements of a mixed-emission
project. In all such cases where the amount allocated is less than the
amount requested, the recipient should work with its Regional Office to
reduce the scope appropriately. Recipients may also provide additional
local funds to complete a proposed project.
Selected projects are eligible to incur costs under pre-award
authority no earlier than November 20, 2025. Pre-award costs are
incurred at your own risk, and the announcement that a project was
selected does not guarantee that FTA will, in fact, obligate a grant
for the funding. FTA is not required to reimburse pre-award costs if
you do not receive an obligated grant or if the obligated grant is less
than anticipated and is inadequate to cover all pre-award costs.
Eligibility for reimbursement is contingent upon planning and
environmental requirements having been met, among other factors. For
more about FTA's policy on pre-award authority, please see the current
FTA Apportionments, Allocations, and Program Information at https://www.transit.dot.gov/funding/apportionments.
Post-award reporting requirements include submission of Federal
Financial Reports and Milestone Progress Reports in TrAMS (see FTA
Circular 5010.1F). Recipients must comply with all applicable Federal
statutes, regulations, executive orders, FTA circulars, and other
Federal requirements in carrying out the project supported by the FTA
grant. FTA emphasizes that recipients must follow all third-party
procurement requirements set forth in Federal public transportation law
(49 U.S.C. 5325(a)) and described in the FTA Third Party Contracting
Guidance Circular (FTA Circular 4220.1G).
Funds allocated in this announcement must be obligated in a grant
by September 30, 2029.
Technical Review and Evaluation Summary: The FTA assessed all
project proposals that were submitted under the FY 2025 Buses and Bus
Facilities Program and the Low-No Program competition according to the
following evaluation criteria. The specific metrics for each criterion
were described in the May 2025 NOFO:
1. Demonstration of Need
2. Demonstration of Benefits
3. Planning/Local Prioritization
4. Local Financial Commitment
5. Project Implementation Strategy
6. Technical, Legal, and Financial Capacity
For each project, a technical review panel assigned a rating of
Highly Recommended, Recommended, or Not Recommended for each of the six
criteria. The technical review panel then assigned an overall rating of
Highly Recommended, Recommended, Not Recommended, or Ineligible to the
project proposal.
FTA also used a streamlined application for tribal applicants
requesting less than $1 million in order to reduce the burden of
application for tribes with smaller requests and encourage more tribal
applications. Such applicants were only required to provide a full
response to Demonstration of Need and Local Financial Commitment, and a
shortened response to Project Implementation Strategy. Tribes with
requests of less than $1 million had to meet statutory requirements,
such as attaching a fleet transition plan to zero-emission
applications, but did not need to provide responses related to any
Administration priorities.
Projects were assigned a final overall rating of Highly Recommended
if they were rated Highly Recommended in at least four categories
overall, with no Not Recommended ratings. Projects were assigned a
final overall rating of Recommended if the projects had three or more
Recommended ratings and no Not Recommended ratings. Projects were
assigned a rating of Not Recommended if they received a Not Recommended
rating in any criteria. A summary of the final overall ratings for all
479 eligible project proposals is shown in the table below.
Overall Project Ratings (eligible submissions):
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bus Low-No Total
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Highly Recommended.............................. 223 131 354
Recommended..................................... 30 21 51
Not Recommended................................. 47 27 74
-----------------------
Total....................................... 300 179 479
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consistent with the NOFO, FTA made the final selections based on
the technical ratings as well as geographic diversity; diversity in the
size of transit systems receiving funding; vehicle propulsion type; and
additional considerations/administration priorities including benefits
to Opportunity Zones, intent to use cost-effective vehicle
procurements, intent to use terms to strengthen the U.S. vehicle
[[Page 1858]]
manufacturing industry, benefits to families and communities, and
commitment to Buy America domestic preference standards.
