I. Funding Opportunity Description
A. Authority
The program is authorized under 49 U.S.C. Section 5309(b) as
amended by Section 3011 of SAFETEA-LU.
``The Secretary may make grants under this section to assist
State and local governmental authorities in financing--* * *
(3) capital projects to replace, rehabilitate, and purchase
buses and related equipment and to construct bus-related facilities,
including programs of bus and bus-related projects for assistance to
subrecipients that are public agencies, private companies engaged in
public transportation, or private non-profit organizations.''
B. Background
FTA has long fostered livable communities and sustainable
development through its various transit programs and activities. Public
transportation supports the development of communities, providing
effective and reliable transportation alternatives that increase access
to jobs, health and social services, entertainment, educational
opportunities, and other activities of daily life, while also improving
mobility within and among these communities. Through various
initiatives and legislative changes over the last fifteen years, FTA
has allowed and encouraged projects that help integrate transit into a
community through neighborhood improvements and enhancements to transit
facilities or services, or make improvements to areas adjacent to
public transit facilities that may facilitate mobility demands of
transit users or support other infrastructure investments that enhance
the use of transit for the community.
On June 16, 2009, U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Secretary
Ray LaHood, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
Secretary Shaun Donovan, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
Administrator Lisa Jackson announced a new partnership to help American
families in all communities--rural, suburban and urban--gain better
access to affordable housing, more transportation options, and lower
transportation costs.
DOT, HUD, and EPA created a high-level interagency partnership to
better coordinate federal transportation, environmental protection, and
housing investments. The Livability Bus Program funding will be awarded
to projects that demonstrate these livability principles (see Section
of this Preamble C.).
Approximately $150 million in unallocated Section 5309 Bus and Bus
Facilities Program funds are available under this notice. By using
these available funds, FTA and DOT can support tangible livability
improvements within existing programs while demonstrating the
feasibility and value of such improvements. These demonstrations can
provide a sound basis for advancing greater investments in the future.
In addition, the program builds on the momentum generated by the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act 2009 and can help inform
Administration and Congressional decision makers on guidance needs for
reauthorization.
C. Purpose
Improving mobility and shaping America's future by ensuring that
the transportation system is accessible, integrated, and efficient,
while offering flexibility of choices is a key strategic goal of the
DOT. FTA is committed to creating livable communities that improve the
quality of life for all
[[Page 64985]]
Americans. Public transportation provides transportation options that
connects communities and fosters sustainability and the development of
urban and rural land use. Through the Livability Bus Program grants,
FTA will invest in projects that fulfill the six livability principles
that serve as the foundation for the DOT-HUD-EPA Partnership for
Sustainable Communities:
1. Provide more transportation choices: Develop safe, reliable, and
economical transportation choices to decrease household transportation
costs, reduce our nation's dependence on foreign oil, improve air
quality, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote public health.
2. Promote equitable, affordable housing: Expand location- and
energy-efficient housing choices for people of all ages, incomes, races
and ethnicities to increase mobility and lower the combined cost of
housing and transportation.
3. Enhance economic competitiveness: Improve economic
competitiveness through reliable and timely access to employment
centers, educational opportunities, services and other basic needs by
workers as well as expanded business access to markets.
4. Support existing communities: Target federal funding toward
existing communities--through such strategies as transit-oriented,
mixed-use development and land recycling--to increase community
revitalization, improve the efficiency of public works investments, and
safeguard rural landscapes.
5. Coordinate policies and leverage investment: Align policies and
funding to remove barriers to collaboration, leverage funding and
increase the accountability and effectiveness of all levels of
government to plan for future growth, including making smart energy
choices such as locally generated renewable energy.
6. Value communities and neighborhoods: Enhance the unique
characteristics of all communities by investing in healthy, safe and
walkable neighborhoods--rural, urban or suburban.
FTA will evaluate proposals and assess a project's ability to
advance local economic development goals, improve mobility for all
citizens, create partnerships that result in the integration of
transportation and land-use decision making and result in environmental
benefits. Additionally, many rural areas are fighting to preserve their
way of life by limiting urban sprawl and protecting valuable
agricultural lands. Often these communities have seen jobs and
businesses leave for larger communities and need assistance preserving
and reinvigorating the traditional rural town center where locals can
find the grocery, doctor, hardware store, family restaurant and town
hall in easy walking distance from one another. FTA is committed to
funding a mix of projects that include projects that demonstrate
livability principles in rural areas including projects that provide
access to jobs, medical services and other necessities in rural areas
and that support the independence of the elderly and individuals with
disabilities.
II. Award Information
Federal transit funds are available to State or Local governmental
authorities as recipients and other public transportation providers as
subrecipients at up to 80 percent of the project cost requiring a 20%
local match. There is no floor or upper limit for any single grant
under this program; however, FTA intends to fund as many meritorious
projects as possible.
Consistent with 49 U.S.C. 5309(m)(8), the Secretary shall consider
the age and condition of buses, bus fleets, related equipment, and bus-
related facilities of applicants in its award of Livability Bus grants.
And, in addition, FTA will consider geographical diversity in making
final funding decisions.
Eligibility Information
A. Eligible Applicants
Eligible applicants under this program are Direct Recipients under
the Section 5307 Urbanized Area Formula program, States, and Indian
Tribes. Proposals for funding eligible projects in rural (nonurbanized)
areas must be submitted as part of a consolidated State application
with the exception of nonurbanized projects to Indian Tribes. Tribes,
States, and Direct Recipients may also submit consolidated proposals
for projects in urbanized areas.
Proposals may contain projects to be implemented by the Recipient
or its subrecipients. Eligible subrecipients include public agencies,
private non-profit organizations, and private providers engaged in
public transportation.
B. Eligible Expenses
SAFETEA-LU grants authority to the Secretary to make grants to
assist State and local governmental authorities in financing capital
projects to replace, rehabilitate, and purchase buses and related
equipment and to construct bus-related facilities, including programs
of bus and bus-related projects for assistance to subrecipients that
are public agencies, private companies engaged in public
transportation, or private non-profit organizations.
Projects eligible for funding under the Livability Bus program are
capital projects such as:
Purchase and rehabilitation of buses and vans, bus related
equipment (including ITS, fare equipment, communication devices),
construction and rehabilitation of bus-related facilities (including
administrative, maintenance, transfer, and intermodal facilities,
including facilities consistent with FTA's Joint Development policy
which is available at http://www.fta.dot.gov.
Funds made available under this program may not be used to fund
operating expenses, preventive maintenance, or any of the other
expanded capital eligibility items (for example, security drills, debt
service reserve, mobility management.) Funds also may not be used to
reimburse projects that have incurred previous expenses absent evidence
that FTA had issued a Letter of No Prejudice (LONP) for the project
before the costs being incurred. There is no blanket pre-award
authority for projects to be funded under this announcement before
their identification in the Federal Register of selected projects.
C. Cost Sharing
Costs will be shared at the following ratio: 80 Percent FTA/20
Percent local contribution, unless the grantee requests a lower Federal
share. FTA will not approve deferred local share under this program.
IV. Application and Submission Information
A. Proposal Submission Process
Project proposals must be submitted electronically through http://
www.grants.gov or by e-mail electronically at buslivability@dot.gov.
Submission via the bus livability e-mail is preferred. Mail and fax
submissions will not be accepted except for supplemental information
that cannot be sent electronically.
An applicant may propose a project that would take more than one
year to complete, which includes expending a single year of Livability
Bus program grant funds over multiple years. The project would,
however, need to be ready to begin upon receiving a grant and need to
be completed in a reasonable period of time, as evaluated on a case by
case basis. In sum, the period of performance of the award is
[[Page 64986]]
separate from the year of funds of the award.

V. Application Review, Selection, and Notification
A. Project Evaluation Criteria
Projects will be evaluated according to the following criteria.
Each applicant is encouraged to demonstrate the responsiveness of a
project to any and all of the selection criteria with the most relevant
information that the applicant can provide, regardless of whether such
information has been specifically requested, or identified, in this
notice. FTA will assess the extent to which a project addresses the
criteria below and produces a livability or sustainability outcome.
1. Demonstrated Need for Resources: FTA will evaluate each project
to determine its need for resources. This determination will be made by
examining the proposal to determine if:
a. The project represents a one-time or periodic need that cannot
reasonably be funded from FTA program formula allocations or
State and/or local revenues.
b. The project or applicant did not receive sufficient Federal
funding
in previous years.
c. The project will have a significant impact on service delivery.
2. Planning and prioritization at local/regional level: FTA will
examine each Bus Livability project proposal for consistency with the
areas planning documents and local priorities. This examination will
involve assessing whether:
a. The project is consistent with the transit priorities identified
in the long range plan and/or contingency/illustrative projects.
b. The MPO endorses the project, if in a UZA, and the State, if for
a rural area.
c. Local support is demonstrated by availability of local match for
this and/or related projects and letters of support.
d. Capital projects are consistent with service needs of the area.
Example: Vehicle expansion proposal shows evidence of the need for
additional capacity.
e. If the project is multimodal in nature, the proposal
demonstrates coordination with and support of other transportation
modes and partners.
3. Livability: Livability investments are projects that deliver not
only transportation benefits, but also are designed and planned in such
a way that they have a positive impact on qualitative measures of
community life. This element delivers benefits that are inherently
difficult to measure. However, it is implicit to livability that its
benefits are shared and therefore magnified by the number of potential
users in the affected community. Therefore, descriptions of how
projects enhance livability should include a description of the
affected community and the scale of the project's impact. To determine
whether a project improves the quality of the living and working
environment of a community, FTA will qualitatively assess whether the
project:
a. Will significantly enhance user mobility through the creation of
more convenient transportation options for travelers;
b. The degree to which the proposed project contributes
significantly to broader traveler mobility through intermodal
connections, or improved connections between residential and commercial
areas.
c. Will improve existing transportation choices by enhancing points
of modal connectivity or, in urban areas, by reducing congestion on
existing transit systems or roadways.
d. Will improve accessibility and transport services for
economically disadvantaged populations, non-drivers, senior citizens,
and persons with disabilities.
e. Is the result of a planning process which coordinated
transportation and land-use planning decisions and encouraged community
participation in the process.
4. Sustainability: In order to determine whether a project promotes
a more environmentally sustainable transportation system, i.e.,
reducing
[[Page 64987]]
reliance on automobile travel, improving the pedestrian and walk
environment of a community, use of environmental design techniques in
the planning, construction, and operation of the project, FTA will
assess the project's ability to:
a. Improve energy efficiency or reduce energy consumption/green
house gas emissions; applicants are encouraged to provide information
regarding the expected use of clean or alternative sources of energy;
projects that demonstrate a projected decrease in the movement of
people by less energy-efficient vehicles or systems will be given
priority under this factor; and
b. Maintain, protect or enhance the environment, as evidenced by
environmentally friendly policies and practices utilized in the project
design, construction, and operation that exceed the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act including items such as whether the
project uses a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)-
certified design, the vehicles or facilities are rated with the energy-
star, the project re-uses a brownfield, construction equipment is
retrofitted with catalytic converters, the project utilizes recycled
materials, the project includes elements to conserve energy, such as
passive solar heating, solar panels, wind turbines, reflective roofing
or paving materials, or other advanced environmental design elements
such as a green roof, etc.
5. Leveraging of public and private investments.
a. Jurisdictional and Stakeholder Collaboration: To measure a
project's alignment with this criterion, FTA will assess the project's
involvement of non-Federal entities and the use of non-Federal funds,
including the scope of involvement and share of total funding. FTA will
give priority to projects that receive financial commitments from, or
otherwise involve, State and local governments, other public entities,
or private or nonprofit entities, including projects that engage
parties that are not traditionally involved in transportation projects,
such as nonprofit community groups or the private owners of real
property abutting the project. FTA will assess the amount of co-
investment from State, local or other non-profit sources.
b. Disciplinary Integration: To demonstrate the value of
partnerships across government agencies that serve the various public
service missions and to promote collaboration on the objectives
outlined in this notice, FTA will give priority to projects that are
supported, financially or otherwise, by non-transportation public
agencies that are pursuing similar objectives. For example, FTA will
give priority to transportation projects that are supported by relevant
public housing or human service agencies, or transportation projects
that encourage energy efficiency or improve the environment and are
supported by relevant public agencies with energy or environmental
missions.
6. The project is ready to implement.
a. Any required environmental work has been initiated for
construction projects requiring an Environmental Assessment (EA),
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), or documented Categorical
Exclusion (CE).
b. Implementation plans are ready, including initial design of
facilities projects.
c. TIP/STIP can be amended (evidenced by MPO/State endorsement).
d. Local share is in place.
e. Project can be obligated and implemented quickly if selected.
f. The applicant demonstrates the ability to carry out the proposed
project successfully.
Note: Applicants must have basic technical, legal, and
financial capacity as a precondition of grant award. Since proposals
are limited to existing FTA grantees, applicants are assumed to have
that basic capacity. This criterion refers to implementation of the
particular project proposed.
a. For larger capital projects, the applicant has the technical
capacity to administer the project.
b. For fleet replacement and/or expansion, the acquisition is
consistent with the bus fleet management plan.
c. For fleet expansion, the applicant has the operating funds to
support the expanded service.
d. There are no outstanding legal, technical or financial issues
with the grantee that would bring the feasibility of successful project
completion into question.
e. Source of 20% local match is identified and is available for
prompt project implementation if selected (no deferred local share will
be allowed).
f. The grantee is in fundable status for grant making purpose.
B. Review and Selection Process
Proposals will first be screened and ranked by the appropriate FTA
regional office (see Appendix). Following this initial review,
meritorious proposals will be submitted for a national review process
and coordinated with representatives of HUD and EPA. Proposals will be
screened and ranked based on the criteria in this notice by FTA
headquarters staff in consultation with the appropriate FTA regional
office (see Appendix), and coordinated with representatives of HUD and
EPA. Highly qualified projects will be considered for inclusion in a
national list of projects that addresses the identified priorities and
represents the highest and best use of the available funding. As
mentioned earlier in this Preamble, the Administrator will also take
into consideration geographical diversity in his final decision. The
FTA Administrator will determine the final selection and amount of
funding for each project. Selected projects will be announced in early
2010. FTA will publish the list of all selected projects and funding
levels in the Federal Register. Regional offices will also notify
successful applicants of their success and the amount of funding
awarded to the project.
VI. Award Administration
A. Award Notices
FTA will announce project selections in a Federal Register Notice
and will post the Federal Register Notices on the Web. FTA regional
offices will contact successful applicants. FTA will award grants for
the selected projects to the applicant through the FTA electronic
grants management and award system, TEAM, after receipt of a complete
application in TEAM. These grants will be administered and managed by
the FTA regional offices in accordance with the federal requirements of
the Section 5309 bus program. At the time the project selections are
announced, FTA will extend pre-award authority for the selected
projects. There is no blanket pre-award authority for these projects
prior to announcement.
B. Administrative and National Policy Requirements
1. Grant Requirements
If selected, applicants will apply for a grant through TEAM and
adhere to the customary FTA grant requirements of the Section 5309 Bus
and Bus Facilities program, including those of FTA C 9300.1A Circular
