This appropriation finances systems development and those
research activities and studies concerned with planning, analysis, and information development needed to support the Secretary’s responsibilities in the formulation of national transportation policies.
The program is carried out primarily through contracts with
other Federal agencies, educational institutions, non-profit research organizations, and private firms.
Transportation policy and planning.—Activities support the
development of transportation policy, coordination of national
level transportation planning, and such issues as regulatory
modernization, energy conservation, and environmental and
safety impacts of transportation. These also enable departmental leadership on aviation economic policy and international transportation issues. In 2000, the department will
undertake new research in support of the protection of critical
transportation infrastructure.
Systems Development.—This activity funds system development of departmentwide management systems. In 2000, it
includes resources to develop an Automated Rulemaking System.

fees. The Act permanently appropriated the first $50 million
of such fees for the Essential Air Service program and rural
airport improvements. To the extent that fee collections fall
below $50 million, current law requires the difference to be
covered by appropriated funds of the Federal Aviation Administration (though no funds of the agency are specifically budgeted for this purpose). The Administration proposes to change
this program to permit financing of fee shortfalls through
any appropriated funding of the Department of Transportation.

To carry out its unique duties as a peacetime operating
agency and one of the military services, the Coast Guard
employs multipurpose vessels, aircraft, and shore units, strategically located along the coasts and inland waterways of
the United States and in selected areas overseas. The 2000
request provides for the safety of the public, and the Coast
Guard’s work force, with a continued emphasis on critical
national security and law enforcement missions. For example,
the request includes $369 million for drug interdiction activities. An additional $67 million for drug interdiction capital
expenses is requested in the Acquisition, Construction, and
Improvements account. The Coast Guard will increase its
drug interdiction efforts over 1999 levels by annualizing the
operation of additional vessels and aircraft brought into service with supplemental 1999 funds and initiating new activities.
As part of a continuing effort to streamline the Coast
Guard, the 1999 Budget assumes facility closures and other
savings that will yield over $19 million in annual savings
by 2001.

For necessary expenses of acquisition, construction, renovation, and
improvement of aids to navigation, shore facilities, vessels, and aircraft, including equipment related thereto, ø$395,465,000¿
$350,326,000, of which $20,000,000 shall be derived from the Oil

improvement of the vessels, aircraft, information management
resources, shore facilities, and aids to navigation required
to execute the Coast Guard’s missions and achieve its performance goals.
The 2000 Budget proposes the establishment and collection
of a cost based user fee on commercial cargo and cruise vessels for navigation assistance provided by the Coast Guard.
A Presidential Advisory Council will review the Coast
Guard’s missions beginning in 1999. Special attention will
be given to the Coast Guard’s deepwater missions; the Council’s recommendations will help to shape the Deepwater Capability Replacement Project, a recapitalization of the Coast
Guard’s large cutters and aircraft set to begin in 2002. This
review, which will be similar to recent reviews of the Department of Defense, is the first comprehensive study of the Coast
Guard since 1982.
Vessels.—In 2000, the Coast Guard will acquire multi-mission platforms that use advanced technology to reduce life
cycle operating costs. The seagoing buoy tender, coastal patrol
boat, motor lifeboat and buoy boat acquisitions will continue.
The Deepwater capability replacement analysis commenced
in 1998. This analysis will identify the types of assets and
technologies needed to perform basic Deepwater mission functions at minimum cost. Such information will advise future
decisions on the scope of the Deepwater project.
Aircraft.—In 2000, the Coast Guard will acquire assets that
ensure safety in the performance of missions. Conversion of
the HC–130 engines will be completed in 1999. Improvements
to the HH–65 helicopter and upgrade of the HC–130 sensors
will continue.
Other Equipment.—In 2000, the Coast Guard will invest
in numerous management information and decision support
systems that will result in increased efficiencies, FTE reductions, and operating and maintenance savings. The Marine
Information for Safety and Law Enforcement (MISLE), Fleet
Logistics System (FLS), National Distress System (NDS), and
Commercial Satellite Communications projects will continue.
Shore Facilities.—In 2000, the Coast Guard will invest in
modern structures that are more energy-efficient, comply with
regulatory codes, and minimize follow-on maintenance requirements.
Personnel and Related Costs.—Personnel resources will be
utilized to execute the AC&I projects described above.

The Administration will propose legislation to authorize the
collection and spending of a user fee for Coast Guard navigational assistance services to commercial cargo vessels, contingent upon the enactment of the appropriations proviso above.
If the proposed authorizing legislation is enacted, the proviso
will reduce the General Fund appropriation by the amount
of the estimated user fee collections. This will allow total
discretionary resources to not exceed the amount allowed
under the discretionary spending caps. The proviso will allow
the Coast Guard to spend whatever amounts of user fees
are collected, possibly more or less than the estimates in
the schedule or the specified reduction in the General Fund
appropriation.
Coast Guard navigational assistance services include buoy
placement and maintenance, vessel traffic services, radio and
satellite navigation systems, and waterways regulation. The
2000 fee collections are estimated to be $41 million, based
on one-quarter year implementation of the charge. When fully
implemented, fees are expected to recover $165 million of
the Coast Guard’s costs annually

specified by law. Excise tax receipts for the Sport Fish Restoration program include a portion of motorboat fuel tax receipts, plus receipts from taxes on sport fishing equipment,
sonar and fish finders, and small engine fuel. Excise tax
receipts for the Boat Safety program are a portion of motorboat fuel tax receipts only.

The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989, Public Law
101–239, triggered collection of a 5 cent tax on each barrel
of oil produced domestically or imported to be deposited into
the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund. Resources from the Oil
Spill Liability Trust Fund are used to finance oil pollution
prevention and cleanup activities by various Federal agencies.
In accordance with the provisions of the Act, the Fund may
finance annually up to $50 million of emergency resources
and all valid claims from injured parties resulting from oil
spills. For Coast Guard, this funds the following accounts:
Trust fund share of expenses, Oil spill recovery, and Payment
of claims. The authority to collect the oil barrel tax expired
on December 31, 1994. Legislation will be proposed to reinstate the tax and place a $5 billion cap on the Fund’s balance.

This account supports the operation and maintenance of
a safe national aviation system. It finances the personnel
and support costs of operating and maintaining the air traffic
control system, and ensuring the safety and security of its
operation. The 2000 budget requests a total funding of $6,039
million for FAA operations, all of which is to be funded from
the Trust Fund. This funding represents an 8.5 percent increase over 1999 enacted levels and will provide funding for
additional safety staff in Airway Facilities, Regulation and
Certification, and Civil Aviation Security. The budget also
provides resources to cover the cost of bringing on-line new
air traffic control systems designed to improve safety and
efficiency. Other funds are provided to ensure information
security and cover key personnel and financial initiatives,
including implementing personnel reform and developing a
cost-accounting system.

The Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act of 1996 (P.L.
104–264) authorized the collection of user fees for services
provided by the FAA to aircraft that neither takeoff nor land
in the United States, commonly known as overflight fees.
In addition, the Act permanently appropriated the first $50
million of such fees to be used for the Essential Air Service
(EAS) program and rural airport improvements. Amounts collected in excess of $50 million are permanently appropriated
for authorized expenses of the FAA. The Budget estimates
that $50 million in overflight fees will be collected in 2000,
and transferred to the Essential Air Service and Rural Airport
Improvement Fund. No appropriated funds are budgeted
within the FAA in 2000 to fund EAS should overflight fee
collections fall below $50 million.

None of the funds in this Act shall be available for activities under
this heading during fiscal year ø1999¿ 2000. (Department of Transportation and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 1999, as included
in Public Law 105–277, section 101(g).)

This account is continuing only for the purpose of reflecting
air carrier repayments of prior loan defaults. No new loan
guarantees are being made.

In 1997, the Federal Aviation Administration established
a franchise fund to finance operations where the costs for
goods and services provided are charged to the users on a
fee-for-service basis. The fund is expected to improve organizational efficiency and provide better support to FAA’s internal and external customers on a reimbursable basis. The activities included in this franchise fund are training, accounting, payroll, travel, duplicating services, multi-media services,
and information technology.
In 2000, there will be a major expansion of the franchise
fund, as the activities of the FAA depot at the Mike Monroney
Aeronautical Center in Oklahoma City become a franchise
fund activity. This expansion will increase the efficiency of
the depot by instituting a more rational and economic basis
for procuring and distributing replacement parts and spares.
Also added to the fund in 2000 will be aircraft maintenance
activities at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center. As with
other franchise fund activities the entry of the aircraft maintenance function will allow the agency to achieve economies
in performance by distributing fixed costs across a larger
business base. This will, in time, lead to improved efficiency
and reduced unit costs for the service provided.

The fund currently provides direct support for the aviation
insurance program authorized under chapter 443 of title 49,
U.S. Code (formerly Title XIII of the Federal Aviation Act
of 1958). Income to the fund is derived from premium deposits
for premium insurance coverage issued, income from authorized investments, and binder fees for nonpremium coverage
issued. The binders provide aviation insurance coverage for
U.S. air carrier aircraft used in connection with certain Government contract operations by the Department of Defense
and the Department of State.

Section 9502 of Title 26, U.S.C., as amended, provides for
the receipts received in the Treasury from the passenger ticket tax and certain other taxes paid by airport and airway
users to be transferred to the Airport and Airway Trust Fund.
In turn, appropriations are authorized from this fund to meet
obligations for airport improvement grants, facilities and
equipment, research, and operations. The Budget assumes
that the current excise taxes will be reduced over time as
more efficient, service-based charges are phased in beginning
in 2000. Under this proposal, the amount collected each year
from the new service-based charges and excise taxes combined
is equal to the total budget resources requested for the FAA
in each succeeding year. The Administration will propose legislation that creates the service-based charges and will apply
the offset to discretionary spending.
The status of the fund is as follows (in millions of dollars):

RESEARCH, ENGINEERING,

Note.—Mission Support has an estimated contingent liability of $82 million (present value) associated with
the FAA’s long-term lease of facilities at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This
contingent liability will be funded through this account.

The proposed funding sustains the current infrastructure
and advances modernization and improvement of the national
airspace system. In particular, funds would provide for significant progress in developing the enroute and terminal automation programs, designed to upgrade air traffic control technology; and the implementation of Free Flight Phase I.
The Administration supports full funding of multi-year fixed
asset projects as part of an ongoing attempt to improve the
cost and performance of agency procurements. To implement
the Administration’s full funding policy, advance appropriations are requested for the following multi-year projects or
usable project segments: Aviation Weather Service Improvements, Air Traffic Control Beacon Interrogator Replacement,
Terminal Digital Radar, Terminal Automation (STARS), Wide
Area Augmentation System for GPS, Display System Replacement, Weather and Radar Processor, Voice Switching and
Control System, Oceanic Automation System, Aeronautical
Data Link, and Operational and Supportability Implementation System (OASIS).

The Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA–
21), enacted June 9, 1998, reauthorizes surface transportation
programs through 2003. TEA–21 provides for increased transportation infrastructure investment, strengthens transportation safety programs and environmental programs, and continues core research activities. TEA–21, along with title 23,
U.S.C. (‘‘Highways’’) and other supporting legislation, provides
authority for the various programs of the Federal Highway
Administration designed to improve highways throughout the
Nation.
In 2000, the Federal Highway Administration continues
major programs, including the Surface Transportation Program, the National Highway System, Interstate Maintenance,
the Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program, and the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program. New programs authorized by TEA–21
include Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation
and the National Corridor Planning and Border Infrastructure
Programs.
In summary, the 2000 budget consists of $31,406 million
in new budget authority and $25,743 million in outlays. The
following table reflects program levels (obligations). Because
project selection is determined by the States, the 1999 and
2000 program levels are estimates.

The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1968 authorized the establishment of a right-of-way revolving fund. This fund was used
to make cash advances to States for the purpose of purchasing
right-of-way parcels in advance of highway construction and
thereby preventing the inflation of land prices from significantly increasing construction costs.
This program was terminated by TEA–21 but will continue
to be shown for reporting purposes as loan balances remain
outstanding. The purchase of right-of-way is an eligible expense of the Federal-aid program and therefore a separate
program is unnecessary. No further obligations are proposed
in 2000.

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.
This table shows the status of the resources of the Highway
Trust Fund relative to the obligational authority that has
been made available for programs financed by the trust fund.
The encumbered balance indicates the degree to which the
outstanding obligational authority exceeds the estimated cash
balances of the fund each year. Under the laws governing
the Highway Trust Fund, the amount of obligational authority
available at any time cannot exceed the actual cash balances
plus the amount of receipts estimated to be collected during
the following two years; for most other trust funds
obligational authority is limited to the actual receipts of the
fund. Revenues in 1999 reflect delayed deposits from the prior
year pursuant to the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, P.L. 105–
34.
The Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA–
21), which became law June 9, 1998, made some important
changes to the operation of the Highway Trust Fund. TEA–
21 provides that the Highway Trust Fund no longer receive
interest earnings on its balances as of September 30, 1998.
To implement this, the Omnibus Consolidated and Emergency
Supplemental Appropriations Act, Public Law 105–277, clarified that obligations held by the Highway Trust Fund shall
be non-interest bearing. TEA–21 also provides that Highway
Trust Fund balances in the Highway Account in excess of
$8 billion as of October 1, 1998, be transferred to the General
Fund.

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 financed from the
Highway Trust Fund and most are distributed via apportionments and allocations to States. Liquidating cash appropriations are subsequently requested to fund outlays resulting
from obligations incurred under contract authority. The budget proposes to fund most programs from within the FederalAid Highway obligation limitation. Emergency Relief and a
portion of the Minimum Guarantee program ($639,000,000)
will be exempt from the limitation.
The FAH program is funded by contract authority found
in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA–
21) which authorizes surface transportation programs through
2003, as described below.
Surface Transportation Program (STP).—STP funds may
be used by States and localities for any roads that are not
classified as local or rural minor collector roads, bridge
projects on any public road, transit capital projects, and intracity and intercity bus terminals and facilities. TEA-21 set
aside 10% of STP funds for transportation enhancements and
safety and also provides State sub-allocations including the
special rule for areas less than 5,000 population. Prior to
apportionment, funds are set aside for Railway-Highway

Crossing Hazard Elimination in High Speed Rail Corridors
and for Operation Lifesaver.
National highway program.—The National Highway System
(NHS) Program provides funding for a designated National
Highway System consisting of roads that are of primary Federal interest. The National Highway System consists of the
current Interstate, other rural principal arterials, urban freeways and connecting urban principal arterials, and facilities
on the Defense Department’s designated Strategic Highway
Network and roads connecting the NHS to intermodal facilities. Legislation designating the 161,000 mile system was enacted in 1995. TEA–21 adds to the system the highways and
connections to transportation facilities identified in the May
24, 1996 report to Congress.
Interstate maintenance (IM).—The IM program finances
projects to rehabilitate, restore, resurface and reconstruct the
Interstate system. Reconstruction that increases capacity,
other than HOV lanes, is not eligible for IM funds.
Emergency relief.—The Emergency Relief (ER) program provides funds for the repair or reconstruction of Federal-aid
highways and bridges and Federally-owned roads and bridges
which have suffered serious damage as the result of natural
disasters or catastrophic failures. The ER program supplements the commitment of resources by States, their political
subdivisions, or Federal agencies to help pay for unusually
heavy expenses resulting from extraordinary conditions. The
mandatory portion of the ER program will be funded at $100
million.
Bridge replacement and rehabilitation.—The bridge program enables States to respond to the problem of unsafe
and inadequate bridges. The funds are available for use on
all bridges, including those on roads functionally classified
as rural minor collectors and as local. Highway bridges designated as a hazard to navigation by the U.S. Coast Guard
will be funded under the bridge program.
Congestion mitigation and air quality improvement program
(CMAQ).—The CMAQ program directs funds toward transportation projects and programs to help meet and maintain national ambient air quality standards for ozone, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. A minimum 1⁄2 percent of the
apportionment is guaranteed to each State. The budget proposes that an additional $341 million of authorized funding
from revenue aligned budget authority be directed to the
CMAQ program.
Federal lands.—This category includes Public Lands Highways, including Forest Highways; Park Roads and Parkways;
Indian Reservation Roads; and Refuge Roads. Roads funded
under this program are open to public travel. State and local
roads (29,500 miles) that provide important access within the
National Forest System are designated Forest Highways.
These roads should not be confused with the Forest Development Roads which are under the jurisdiction of the Forest
Service. Park roads and Parkways (8,000 miles) are owned
by the National Park Service and provide access within the
National Park System. Indian Reservation Roads program
consists of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (25,000 miles) and
State and local roads (25,000 miles) that provide access within
Indian lands. There are approximately 4,250 miles which are
under the jurisdiction of the Fish and Wildlife Service. The
new category of Refuge Roads consists of public roads that
provide access to or within the National Wildlife Refuge System.
Border planning and infrastructure program.—The border
planning and infrastructure program provides funds to make
grants to State and local governments and Federal inspection
agencies to facilitate planning and construction of facilities
to improve the flow of people and goods in corridors of national significancce and at our Nation’s borders.
Transportation infrastructure finance and innovation act
(TIFIA) program.—The TIFIA program will provide funds to

FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION—Continued
Trust Funds—Continued

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

assist in the development of nationally-significant transportation projects. The goal is to encourage the development
of large, capital-intensive infrastructure facilities through
public-private partnerships consisting of State or local government and one or more private sector firms. It will encourage
more private sector and non-Federal participation, and build
on the public’s willingness to pay user fees to receive the
benefits and services of transportation infrastructure sooner
than would be possible under traditional funding techniques.
Loans, loan guarantees, and stand-by lines of credit may be
used to secure junior lien debt or other obligations requiring
credit enhancement.
As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990,
this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated with the direct loans obligated in 1992 and beyond
(including modifications of direct loans or loan guarantees
that resulted from obligations or commitments in any year),
as well as administrative expenses of this program. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a present value basis; the
administrative expenses are estimated on a cash basis.
Federal highway research and technology.—The research
and technology program develops new transportation technology that can be applied nationwide. Activities include surface transportation research, technology deployment, training
and education, University Transportation Research, and funding for State research, development, and technology implementation. The budget proposes an additional $190 million
of authorized funding from revenue aligned budget authority
for research activities. In addition, the Administration proposes to reallocate $20 million from MAGLEV preconstruction
activities to Advanced Vehicles Technology research. Research
will continue within the Federal Railroad Administration
(FRA) regarding ways to make MAGLEV affordable.
State infrastructure banks (SIBs) program.—TEA–21 authorizes four States to participate in the SIBs program. The
Administration plans to propose authorization language to
allow all States to participate. The SIB program is designed
to strategically attract non-Federal funds to increase overall
transportation infrastructure investment. A SIB is initially
capitalized with Federal funds and non-Federal matching
funds. The SIB then uses these capitalization grant funds
to assist projects through loans and other forms of financial
assistance. As loans are repaid, the SIB funds are replenished
and the SIB can provide new loans or guarantees to additional transportation projects. Financial assistance from a SIB
provides additional security or credit support for project financing that may result in lower capital costs.
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).—The ITS program
is a cooperative, public/private initiative to research, develop,
test and evaluate advanced electronic and information systems that can improve the safety, operational efficiency, and
productivity of the existing surface transportation infrastructure. It includes the ITS research and development program
and the ITS deployment incentives program. The ITS research
and development program supports the development of the
next generation of ITS technologies, including the Intelligent
Vehicle Initiative; the development and maintenance of the
National ITS architecture and standards; and the deployment
of integrated ITS systems through guidance documents, training, and technical assistance. The budget proposes an additional $60 million of authorized funding from revenue aligned
budget authority for research activities. The ITS deployment
incentive program supports the integration of existing ITS
systems in metropolitan areas, integration and infrastructure
deployment in rural areas; and the deployment of the commercial vehicle information systems and networks (CVISN).
Revenue Aligned Budget Authority (RABA).—Beginning in
2000, the budget authority and obligation limitation for Federal-aid highway and highway safety programs funded from
the Highway Account (HA) of the Highway Trust Fund (HTF)

755

will be adjusted to reflect changes in tax receipt estimates
of the HA of the HTF. The budget proposes to provide RABA
funds in 2000 as follows: $125 million to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration; $291 million to the Federal
Transit Administration; $35 million to the Federal Railroad
Administration; $250 million to Federal Highway Administration’s Research and Technology program; $341 million to the
Federal Highway Administration’s Congestion Mitigation and
Air Quality Improvement Program; and $25 million for the
Federal Highway Administration’s Transportation and Community and System Preservation Pilot Program. This reflects
the Administration’s commitment to safety, transit, the environment, and technology programs. RABA funds totaling $388
million will be distributed among Federal-aid highway and
highway safety construction programs.
Miscellaneous.—This category includes Scenic Byways,
Highway Use Tax Evasion Projects, National Recreational
Trails, Value Pricing, Ferry Boats, and Transportation and
Community and System Preservation. The budget proposes
to double the funding provided to Transportation and Community and System Preservation.

and outlay amounts made available in prior years.

NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY
ADMINISTRATION
The following table depicts the total funding for all National
Highway Traffic Safety programs. A large portion of the Operations and Research activity is to be derived from the Revenue Aligned Budget Authority authorized by the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century.
This proposal reflects the Administration’s focus on directing additional resources provided under the Act to the highest
priority activities in transportation safety, mobility, and the
environment. As a result, the entire NHTSA request is proposed to be funded from within the Highway Budget category.

and for program evaluation activities. It also includes a new
international research effort and supports the safety needs
of the Administration’s Partnership for a New Generation of
Vehicles (PNGV) initiative and the Vehicle Research Test
Center (VRTC). Support of NHTSA’s crash avoidance research
under the Intelligent Vehicle Initiative (IVI) program and
the National Advanced Driving Simulator will be provided
by funds from the Federal Highway Administration.
Highway Safety Programs.—Provides for research, demonstrations, technical assistance, and national leadership for
highway safety programs conducted by state and local governments, the private sector, universities and research units,
and various safety associations and organizations. This program emphasizes alcohol and drug countermeasures, vehicle
occupant protection, traffic law enforcement, emergency medical and trauma care systems, traffic records and licensing,
state and community evaluation, motorcycle riders, pedestrian
and bicycle safety, pupil transportation, young and older driver safety programs, and development of improved accident
investigation procedures. The Safe Communities program provides training, technical assistance, and materials to communities to strengthen the infrastructure of existing efforts and
provide the tools necessary to start new community programs.
Special emphasis this year will be given to aggressive drivers,
fatigued drivers, older drivers, excessive speeding, reaching
diverse populations, applying technology to help solve highway safety problems, and making .08 the national legal limit.
The Department has set a national goal to reduce alcoholrelated traffic fatalities to no more than 11,000 by the year
2005. The President has established a goal of increasing safety belt use to 90 percent by 2005, and reduce child occupant
fatalities (0-–4 years) by 25 percent in 2005.
Section 405(b) Child Passenger Protection Education Grant
Program.—A new program to encourage states to implement
child passenger protection programs that will help states increase proper child safety seat use and reduce child occupant
fatalities. States may qualify for grants by carrying out specific child passenger protection education and training activities.
General Administration.—Provides program evaluation,
strategic planning, and economic analysis for agency programs. Objective quantitative information about NHTSA’s
regulatory and highway safety programs are gathered to
measure their effectiveness in achieving objectives. This activity also funds development of methods to estimate economic
consequences of motor vehicle injuries in forms suitable for
agency use in problem identification, regulatory analysis, priority setting, and policy analysis.

Section 402.—The Section 402 State and Community Grant
Program is a performance based program administered by
NHTSA. Grant allocations are determined on the basis of
a statutory formula. States use this funding to reduce traffic
crashes, fatalities, and injuries. The grants are used to support State highway safety programs, within national priorities, implemented jointly with all members of the highway
safety community. States develop safety goals, performance
measures, and strategic plans to manage use of grants for
programs to reduce deaths and injuries on the Nation’s highways, such as programs associated with excessive speeds, failure to use occupant restraints, alcohol/drug impaired driving
and roadway safety.
Alcohol-Impaired Driving Incentive Grants.—A revised ‘‘Alcohol-Impaired Driving Countermeasures’’ two-tiered basic
and supplement grant program has been established to reward States that pass new laws and start more effective
programs to attack drunk driving. This continues the Department’s strong emphasis on impaired drivers that has been
addressed by the Section 410 incentive grant program. States
may qualify for basic grants by implementing criteria that
include: administrative license revocation, stepped-up police
enforcement coupled with publicity, and graduated licensing
laws with nighttime driving restrictions and Zero Tolerance.
States are also awarded basic grants for demonstrating consistently high performance in reducing alcohol-related fatalities. There are six supplemental grant criteria including self-

The Amtrak Reform Council was created by the Amtrak
Reform and Accountability Act of 1997 (P.L. 105–134) to perform an independent assessment of Amtrak. The 1999 Department of Transportation and Related Agencies Appropriations
Act expanded the Council’s mandate to include identifying
Amtrak routes which are candidates for closure or realignment. A total of $750 thousand is requested for these activities. In addition, the Administration proposes to allow the
Council to hire the outside legal, accounting and other technical expertise necessary to fulfill its Congressional mandates.
The Council is an independent entity and its funding is presented within the Federal Railroad Administration for display
purposes only. In 1998, the Council received $50 thousand
in operating funds under P.L. 105–174. An additional $2 million provided in this Act was transferred to the Inspector
General to conduct an independent assessment of Amtrak’s
financial status. In 1999 $450 thousand was appropriated
to the Council (P.L. 105–277) in Section 349. As such, funding
is requested in a General Provision.

The objective of the Railroad Research and Development
(R&D) program is to provide science and technology support
for rail safety rulemaking and enforcement and to stimulate
technological advances in conventional and high-speed railroads. This activity is conducted with the cooperation and
some cost-sharing from private sector organizations.
Equipment, operations and hazardous materials research.—
Provides for research in safety and performance improvements in train occupant protection, rolling stock safety assurance and performance, human factors and transportation of
hazardous materials.
Track, structures and train control.—Provides for research
in safety and performance improvements to track structure,
track components, railroad bridge and tunnel structures, signal and train control, and track-vehicle interaction.
Safety of high-speed ground transportation.—Provides for
research in the development of safety performance standards,
technological advances, and the conduct of safety and environmental assessments for new high-speed ground transportation
systems. In addition, research will continue on how to make
magnetic levitation technology cost-effective. Currently, the
public cost of these systems exceed the benefits projected to
be received by the taxpayer for their investment.
R&D facilities.—Provides support for the Transportation
Technology Center (TTC) near Pueblo, Colorado, which is a
government-owned, contractor-operated facility. The Association of American Railroads (AAR) is the private operator
under a contract for care, custody and control.
Administration.—Provides support for the salaries and related administrative expenses of the Office of Research and
Development. Beginning in 2000, funding for this function
is included in the Safety and Operations Account.

Amtrak, the National Railroad Passenger Corporation, is
acquiring trainsets specially designed to offer enhanced highspeed (150 mph) service on the Northeast Corridor from
Washington, DC, to Boston, Massachusetts. Funds appropriated in 1997 continue to help finance the acquisition of
the trainsets and related maintenance facilities. No funds
are requested for this account in 2000.

Data above includes funds for the Railroad Rehabilitation
and Improvement and Amtrak Corridor Improvement Loans
program accounts. These accounts were funded under separate appropriations, and are displayed in a consolidated format. The two accounts are loan administration accounts. No
funding is requested in 2000. No loans are proposed to be
supported in 2000 with Federal funds.
TEA–21 expanded the Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement program to permit non-Federal entities to provide the
subsidy budget authority needed to support a loan through
the payment of a credit risk premium. The Federal government would still bear the risk of default on these loans.
The loan arrangements will be entered into only when the
borrower can demonstrate it does not have access to any
other source of capital. The interest rates on these loans
will be set comparable to that available in the private credit
market.

The National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) was
established in 1970 through the Rail Passenger Service Act.
Amtrak is operated and managed as a for profit corporation
with all Board members appointed by the Executive Branch
of the Federal Government, with the advice and consent of
the Senate, and is not an agency or instrumentality of the
U.S. Government.
Funding provides support for Amtrak capital requirements
including Northeast Corridor improvements.
No funding is requested for either Amtrak operating expenses or ‘‘excess’’ railroad retirement payments. The Administration will propose that Amtrak be given the same flexibility in spending its capital grant as provided to transit grantees. Specifically, a capital project would include acquiring,
constructing, supervising or inspecting equipment or facility
(and incidental expenses thereto), payments for the capital
portion of trackage rights agreements, rehabilitating, remanufacturing or overhauling rail rolling stock, and preventive
maintenance.

These funds provided direct payments to a for-profit Staterun railroad. No funds are requested for 2000.

The Alameda Transportation Corridor is an intermodal
project connecting the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach
to downtown Los Angeles. The project replaces the current
20 miles of at-grade rail line with a high-speed, below-grade
corridor, thereby eliminating over 200 grade crossings. It also
widens and improves the adjacent major highway on this
alignment and mitigates the impact of increased international
traffic transferring through the San Pedro Ports. The loan
will permit construction to continue without interruption
through the date of an anticipated revenue bond sale, the
proceeds of which will fund the majority of the project’s costs.
As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990,
this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated with the direct loan(s) obligated in 1997. The subsidy
amounts are estimated on a present value basis. No funds
are requested for this account in 2000, as all funds required
to complete this project were provided in 1997.

This account is funded from higher than anticipated receipts in the Highway trust fund under revenue aligned budget authority.
The high-speed rail grade crossings program supports FRA’s
goal to reduce highway-rail grade crossings by 50 percent
by 2004; reduce risk of accidents in designated high-speed
corridors; and facilitate the implementation of high-speed rail
systems outside the Northeast Corridor.
For the nationwide differential global positioning system
(NDGPS), the funding will be used to continue the conversion
of 66 decommissioned USAF Gwen sites into differential global positioning system (DGPS) sites to complete the nationwide
network.
Funding for positive train control will support the development and installation of advanced train control systems to
help reduce the risk of collisions between trains, collisions
between trains and maintenance-of-way workers, and overspeed accidents.

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) provides funding
to transit operators, State and local governments and other
recipients for the construction of facilities; the purchase of
vehicles and equipment; the improvement of technology, service techniques, and methods; the support of regionwide transportation planning; and transit operations. In addition to improving general mobility, FTA provides financial assistance
to help implement other national goals relating to mobility
for the elderly, people with disabilities, and economically disadvantaged individuals.
The Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century reauthorized transit programs through FY 2003, and created the
new discretionary Mass Transit Budget Category. The General Fund and Highway Trust Fund funding contained in
the mass transit category is referred to as ‘‘guaranteed’’ funding. Approximately 82 percent of transit funding is derived
from the mass transit account of the Highway Trust Fund.
In 2000, $6,088 million is proposed for transit programs,
including $291 million to be made available from the Federal
Highway Administration as part of a reallocation of the increase resulting from the revenue aligned budget authority
under the highway program.
The following tables show the funding for the Federal Transit Administration programs.

The National Capital Transportation Amendments of 1979
(Stark-Harris) authorized $1.7 billion in Federal funds to support the construction of the Washington Metrorail system.
In addition, the National Capital Transportation Amendments
of 1990 authorized another $1.3 billion in Federal capital
assistance to complete construction of the planned 103-mile
system. The Federal commitment to complete the 103-mile
system was fully funded in 1999. No new budget authority
is proposed.

Formula grants is requested at $3,310 million in 2000. This
total includes $3,098 million, the guarantee level in TEA–
21, plus $212 million proposed to be made available from
the Federal Highway Administration’s increase resulting from
the revenue aligned budget authority. The Formula Grant
funds can be used for all transit purposes including planning,
bus and railcar purchases, facility repair and construction,
maintenance and where eligible, operating expenses. Increased investment levels help transit succeed in alleviating
congestion, ensuring basic mobility, promotes more livable
communities and help meet additional needs required as a
result of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the
Clean Air Act (CAA).
In 2000, FTA requests $4.85 million for the Alaska Railroad
and $50 million for the Clean Fuels Formula program consistent with the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century,
TEA–21. FTA requests $25 million to support the extraordinary transit needs of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games and
Paralympic Games in Salt Lake City, Utah. FTA also requests
$20 million for the high priority Long Island Railroad East
Side Access project. A total of $5 million for the Rural Transportation Accessibility Incentive Program, commonly referred
to as the Over-the-Road Bus Accessibility Program is requested.
Clean Fuels Formula Program.—$50 million will finance
the purchase or lease of clean fuel buses and facilities and
the improvement of existing facilities to accommodate clean
fuel buses.
Over-the-Road Bus Accessibility Program.—$5 million for
the Rural Transportation Accessibility Incentive Program established in TEA–21 will assist operators of over-the-road
buses to finance the incremental capital and training costs
of complying with the Department of Transportation’s final
rule regarding accessibility of over-the-road buses required
by the ADA.
Urbanized Area Formula.—$2,924 million in funds will be
apportioned to areas with populations of 50,000 or more.
Funds may be used for any transit capital purpose, including
preventive maintenance for these capital assets, in urban
areas over 200,000 in population. Also, in urbanized areas
under 200,000 both capital and operating costs are eligible

In 2000, a total of $111 million is requested for the transit
planning and research activities, including $51 million for
research and technology and $60 million for Metropolitan and
Statewide Planning.
In 2000, $51 million is requested for a variety of research
activities. The National Research and Technology program
is funded at $34 million and includes $4 million made available from the reallocation of the increase resulting from the
revenue aligned budget authority under the highway program.
These funds will be used to cover costs for FTA’s essential
safety and transit operations data bases including the National Transit Database. $8 million is for Transit Cooperative
Research; $4 million for the National Transit Institute; $5
million for the Rural Transit Assistance Program.
Under the national component of the program, the FTA
is a catalyst in the research, development and deployment
of transportation methods and technologies which address
such issues as accessibility for the disabled, air quality, traffic
congestion, and transit service and operational improvements.
The National Research Program supports the development
of innovative transit technologies, such as hybrid electric
buses, fuel cells, and battery powered propulsion systems.
For support of metropolitan and statewide planning activities $60 million, the guaranteed level in TEA–21, is requested
in 2000. Of this amount, $50 million will be apportioned to
States for Metropolitan planning, and $10 million for statewide planning and research activities. These funds support
the transportation planning activities that will enable these
regional planning agencies to continue to plan for the transportation investments that best meet the needs of the communities they serve, and to comply with Federal statutes.

In 2000, $150 million is requested for the Job Access and
Reverse Commute Grants Program. This amount includes $75
million made available from the Federal Highway Administration as part of a reallocation of the increase resulting from
the revenue aligned budget authority under the highway program. Through grants to states, local governments, and nonprofit organizations, this program is intended to provide
transportation services in urban, suburban and rural areas
to assist welfare recipients and low income individuals to
access employment opportunities. Federal funds would provide 50 percent of the project costs, with grant recipients
supplying the remaining 50 percent.

activity remains the stabilization and restoration factor for
remedying the conditions of the Nation’s older fixed guideway
systems.
New Starts.—$980.4 million for the construction of new
fixed guideway systems and extensions to existing fixed guideway systems. This will fund all projects currently under Full
Funding Grant Agreements (FFGA) or expected to be under
a FFGA during 2000. Within the $980.4 million total FTA
is requesting that 8 percent or, $78.4 million be provided
for preliminary engineering and recommending $8 million for
each of the following projects: Baltimore Central Corridor LRT
Double Track, Minneapolis—Hiawatha Corridor Transitway,

SAINT LAWRENCE SEAWAY DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION
Federal Funds
Public enterprise funds:

The Saint Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation
(SLSDC) is a wholly owned Government Corporation responsible for the operation, maintenance and development of the
United States portion of the St. Lawrence Seaway between
Montreal and Lake Erie. Major priorities are to control Seaway Corporation costs and to encourage increased use of the
Seaway system.
SLSDC is proposed as a performance-based organization
(PBO) for 2000–2004. The PBO will focus on four key performance goals: safety, long and short term reliability, trade development, and management accountability including customer
service, fiscal performance and cost effectiveness. No appropriation is requested as financing is proposed to be derived
from an automatic annual payment from the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund, based on five-year average tonnage
through the Seaway.

The Research and Special Programs Administration serves
as a research, analytical, and technical development arm of
the Department for multimodal research and development,
as well as special programs. Particular emphasis is given
to transportation of hazardous cargo by all modes of transportation. In 2000, resources are requested for hazardous materials safety programs, including emergency preparedness activities. Funding is also provided for the management and
execution of the Office of Emergency Transportation, the Office of Research, Technology and Training, the Transportation
Safety Institute and the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (VNTSC). The 2000 Budget proposes to increase
hazardous materials registration fees to finance hazardous
materials safety activities previously financed by general fund
appropriations to this account. This proposal is described in
the following section.

Beginning late in 2000, hazardous materials safety activities previously financed by general fund appropriations to
this account are proposed to be financed instead by offsetting
collections of hazardous materials registration fees. Authorizing legislation will be proposed to increase the fees paid by
shippers and carriers of hazardous materials by an estimated
$18 million in 2000 to fund these safety activities. Due to
the timing of these collections, a general fund appropriation
of $14 million is requested to fund the hazardous materials
safety program for the first three quarters of 2000. Beginning
in the fourth quarter of 2000, this program would become
100 percent fee-financed. Of the $18 million in new fees collected, $5 million would be obligated in 2000. The remainder
would be carried over into 2001 to finance the hazardous
materials safety program until the 2001 fee collections are
received.
The collection and expenditure of this increase in hazardous
materials fees would be contingent on appropriations action.

The additional proviso to be included in appropriation language is being proposed in anticipation of the enactment of
authorizing legislation. If the authorizing legislation is enacted, the proviso will reduce the amount of the general fund
appropriation provided in the body of the language by $5
million, the amount necessary to fund these activities in the
last quarter of 2000, so that total resources for this account
will not exceed the amount allowed under the discretionary
spending caps.

The Federal Hazardous Materials Transportation law (Federal hazmat law), 49 U.S.C. 5101 et seq., establishes a national registration program of shippers and carriers of hazardous materials. The registrants finance, through fees, emergency preparedness planning and training grants programs,
a training curriculum for emergency responders, and monitoring and technical assistance to States, political subdivisions,
and Indian tribes. In the Federal hazmat law, there are permanent appropriations for the planning and training grants,
monitoring and technical assistance, and for administrative
expenses. As enacted for 1999, the Budget proposes to limit
2000 activities to those authorized for the Department of
Transportation. Appropriations are requested for the training
curriculum.
The Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA)
intends to propose a rulemaking to increase the annual level
of funding for the Emergency Preparedness Grants program
to approximately $14.3 million beginning in 2000. RSPA is
considering a number of ways to increase registration collections to this level.

The Surface Transportation Board was created on January
1, 1996, by P.L. 104–88, the ICC Termination Act of 1995
(ICCTA). The Board is specifically responsible for the regulation of the rail and pipeline industries and certain non-licensing regulation of motor carriers and water carriers.
Rail Carriers.—This regulatory oversight encompasses the
regulation of rates, mergers, and acquisitions, construction,
and abandonment of railroad lines, as well as the planning,
analysis and policy development associated with these activities. Staff ensure compliance with railroad regulations in
order to protect the public interest.
Other Surface Transportation Carriers.—This regulatory
oversight includes certain regulation of the intercity bus industry and surface pipeline carriers as well as the rate regulation of water transportation in the non-contiguous domestic
trade, household good carriers, and collectively determined
motor rates and the processing of truck undercharge matters.
2000 Program Request.—A total of $17 million is requested
to implement rulemakings and adjudicate the ongoing caseload within the directives and deadlines set forth by the
ICCTA. The total program request amount is proposed to
be derived from user fees collected from the beneficiaries of
the Board’s activities. This fee financing proposal stems from
a proposal put forward by the Board’s predecessor, the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC). That proposal suggested
ways of financing the ICC solely with fees and/or industry
assessments. Fee financing will relieve the general taxpayer
of the burden of supporting the Board. Further, fee financing
will emphasize the accountability of the Board as to the value
of the activities it provides to its customers.
The following paragraph is presented in compliance with
Section 703 of the ICCTA. It is presented without change
or correction. The Administration opposes appropriations language, requested by the Board, which would permit an expenditure level based on projected fee collections, regardless
of whether those fees are actually collected. Such language
reduces the incentive to collect fees, and, therefore, we would
not score the fees as being collected. The Board has been
criticised for not fully collecting the fees required of it under
current law; its proposal could only exacerbate this situation.
The Board’s Request to OMB.—The Board had submitted
to the Secretary of Transportation and the Office of Management and Budget a 2000 appropriation request of $15.821
million and a request for $1.2 million from reimbursements
from the offsetting collection of user fees. This funding request supports the required staffing, which mirrors the
Board’s 1999 budgetary authority granted to date, and is necessary for continued expeditious processing of the Board’s
caseload. The appropriation request included $16.0 million,
the current level of funding provided by the 1999 Department
of Transportation Appropriations Act, plus $1.021 million for
annual pay and non-pay adjustments. The $1.2 million request from the offsetting collection of user fees is commensurate with the Board’s projection for fee-related activities. The
offsetting collection of user fees is based on the costs incurred
by the Board for fee-related activities and is commensurate
with the costs of processing parties’ submissions. In past fiscal

years, the Board received both an appropriation and authorization for offsetting collections to be made available to the
appropriation for the Board’s expenses. In light of Congressional action on the enacted FY 1999 appropriation act, the
FY 2000 request reflects offsetting collections as a credit to
the appropriation received, to the extent that they are collected.
This level of funding is necessary to implement rulemakings
and adjudicate the ongoing caseload within the deadlines imposed by the ICCTA. The Board requires adequate resources
to perform key functions under the ICCTA, including rail
rate reasonableness oversight; the processing of rail consolidations, abandonments and other restructuring proposals; and
the resolution of motor carrier undercharge matters.

The Maritime Security Program provides resources to maintain a U.S.-flag merchant fleet crewed by U.S. citizens to
serve both the commercial and national security needs of
the United States. The program provides direct payments
to U.S.-flag ship operators engaged in U.S.-foreign trade. Participating operators are required to keep the vessels in active
commercial service and are required to provide intermodal
sealift support to the Department of Defense in times of war
or national emergency.

The Operating-Differential Subsidies (ODS) account helps
to maintain a U.S.-flag merchant fleet to serve both the commercial and national security needs of the U.S. by providing
operating subsides to U.S.-flag ship operators to offset certain
differences between U.S. and foreign operating costs. Appropriations are provided to liquidate contract authority. This
program has been replaced by the Maritime Security Program. Existing liquidating cash on hand is expected to be
sufficient to honor existing contracts. No new ODS contracts
will be entered into and no existing contracts will be modified.

Public Law 99–198 amended section 901 of the Merchant
Marine Act to increase from 50 to 75 percent the amount
of agricultural commodities under specified programs that
must be carried on U.S.-flag vessels. The increased cost associated with this expanded U.S.-flag shipping requirement
stems from higher rates charged by U.S.-flag carriers compared with foreign-flag carriers. The Maritime Administration
is required to reimburse the Department of Agriculture for
ocean freight differential costs for the added tonnage above
50 percent. These reimbursements are funded through borrowings from the Treasury. This account has a permanent,
indefinite appropriation to liquidate debt provided in Public
Law 100–202 to cover these costs.
The Maritime Administration’s ocean freight differential
costs are one portion of the government’s cargo preference
program. The ocean transportation subsidy costs related to
cargo preference for all relevant agencies are presented in

The Maritime Administration is authorized to reactivate,
operate, deactivate, and charter merchant vessels. These operations are financed through the Vessel Operations Revolving
Fund with reimbursements from sponsoring agencies. In addition, the fund is available to finance the necessary expenses
to protect, maintain, preserve, acquire, and use vessels involved in mortgage foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings instituted by the United States other than those financed by the
Federal Ship Financing Fund or the Maritime Guaranteed
Loan (Title XI) Financing Account; and to process advances
received from Federal agencies. Also the acquisition and disposal of ships under the trade-in/scrap-out program is financed through this account.
Reimbursements from other Federal agencies also pay for
various DOD/Navy-sponsored activities, such as the operation
of activated RRF vessels, installation of sealift enhancement
features and other special projects. The Vessel Operations
Revolving Fund account includes DOD/Navy reimbursements
for the RRF account. DOD/Navy funding for RRF provides
for additional RRF vessels, RRF ship activations and deactivations, maintaining RRF ships in an advanced state of readiness, berthing costs, capital improvements at fleet sites, and
other RRF support costs.

The Merchant Marine Act of 1936, as amended, established
the Federal Ship Financing Fund to assist in the development
of the U.S. merchant marine by guaranteeing construction
loans and mortgages on U.S.-flag vessels built in the United
States. No new commitments for loan guarantees are projected for the Federal Ship Financing Fund as this Fund
is used only to underwrite guarantees made under the Title
XI loan guarantee program prior to 1992.
