The Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act (FAA) of 1996
(P.L. 104–264) authorized the collection of user fees for services provided by the 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 program and rural
airport improvements. To the extent that fee collections fall
below $50 million, the law required the difference to be covered by Federal Aviation Administration funds. The 2009
Budget proposes a $50 million program to be fully financed
from overflight fees. The Budget proposes a general provision
to restructure the program.

Through 1997, this program was funded from the Airport
and Airway Trust Fund. Starting in 1998, the FAA 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 the Payments to Air Carriers
program were enacted in 2007 and 2008. The Administration
is not requesting appropriations from the Airport and Airway
Trust Fund for the Payments to Air Carriers account in 2009.

The Administration transmitted a reauthorization proposal
in February 2007 to reform the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) financing system by adopting new cost-based user
fees and a new governance structure to provide more transparency and accountability for FAA operations. The Administration will resubmit the proposal that establishes a costbased financing system, helps to address congestion, and

makes the system more accountable to aviation stakeholders.
The Budget estimates in the Appendix present FAA’s budget
accounts under current law financing mechanisms for 2009;
estimates beyond 2009 assume enactment of the Administration’s proposal.
Under the proposal, FAA’s financing sources shift from a
mix of fuel taxes, other excise taxes, and general fund contributions to user fees, fuel taxes, and a general fund contribution. FAA would have the authority to collect user fees
that directly offset the cost of FAA’s operations and capital
investments related to air traffic services; expenditure of the
available fees would be affirmed in the appropriations process.
Air traffic user fees would be collected from turbine-powered
fixed-wing commercial aviation operators. General aviation
users, along with commercial piston flights and helicopters,
would continue to pay a fuel tax that would be deposited
into the Airport and Airway Trust Fund; fuel tax rates would
be calibrated based on the costs that these users impose on
the system. The general fund component of FAA’s budget
would cover activities that benefit the public such as safety
and public use of the airspace. Finally, the Airport Improvement Program and the majority of the Research, Engineering,
and Development program would continue to be funded by
fuel taxes paid by all domestic users into the Airport and
Airway Trust Fund, along with an international passenger
tax (reduced from current rates because these flights would
also pay user fees).

As the table above illustrates, while total spending will
increase by $856 million in 2010 under the Administration’s
proposal, user fees will offset over half of FAA’s 2010 budget.
This means FAA net discretionary level will decrease by $7.84
billion, even as FAA increases investment in the Next Generation Air Traffic Control System.
FAA aims to create a more direct relationship between revenues collected and the cost of services provided, thereby creating incentives to make the system more efficient and responsive to user needs. The reform of FAA’s financing structure is necessary because under the existing aviation tax
structure, there is no relationship between the taxes paid
by users and the air traffic control services rendered by the
FAA. This disconnect leads to distorted consumption of air
traffic services, and, ultimately, congestion. For example,
when a full plane flies from New York to Boston it imposes
the same workload on the FAA as when a less crowded plane
of the same size travels the same route. However, since the
current tax structure is primarily based on ticket revenue,
the full plane pays much more in taxes than the less crowded
plane. Furthermore, a general aviation jet pays a small fraction, often less than 10 percent of what a commercial flight
pays, despite using the same airspace and services. User fees
allow commercial aviation users to pay directly for the services that FAA provides for managing their use of the national
airspace. Similarly, under the recalibrated fuel taxes, general
aviation users would pay a fairer share of the air traffic
costs through their preferred payment mechanism.

THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2009

The Administration’s proposal was crafted to reform FAA’s
financing system to better enable modernization and reduce
congestion. In its proposal, FAA would charge cost-based fees
for terminal and en route airspace. At large congested airports, FAA could adjust this terminal fee based on the time
of day and day of the week, to reduce delays and congestion.
The Administration has also taken several short-term steps
to address congestion including new air traffic patterns at
JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, and Philadelphia International airports, directing the appointment of a New York aviation czar,
and working with the Port Authority of New York and New
Jersey, airports, airlines, and other stakeholders to make
operational improvements. FAA also convened scheduling reduction meetings in October 2007. As a result of those meetings, an agreement was reached on reducing schedules during
peak hours at JFK to ensure operations remain within available capacity. The Secretary also directed the FAA to enter
into negotiations to set hourly caps at Newark Airport, so
that flights are not simply shifted there, erasing gains made
at JFK.
DOT will continue talks with airlines and airports to look
at ways to use broader market-based mechanisms to combat
delays not only in the New York region, but in clogged aviation centers elsewhere around the country. Later this year,
the FAA anticipates leasing new airspace capacity added in
the New York City region for the 2009 summer schedule.
The price of these leases will ultimately be determined by
the market demand for the operating authorizations. The Administration will consider transmitting a budget amendment
when there is better information concerning the number of
operating authorizations available to be leased and the potential revenue generated from the leases. Revenue will be directed to further capacity improvements in the New York
airspace.
The following table depicts the total funding for all Federal
Aviation Administration programs, for which more detail is
furnished in the budget schedules:

Organization, that better aligns with FAA’s lines of business.
This account provides funds for the operation, maintenance,
communications, and logistical support of the air traffic control and air navigation systems, including the deployment
of communications, navigation, surveillance and related
equipment and technology. As a performance-based organization, ATO is designed to provide cost-effective, efficient, and,
above all, safe air traffic services. In 2009, this account includes funding for FAA initiatives related to the Next Generation Air Transportation System, a joint effort between FAA,
NASA, and other agencies to design the future operating environment. The funding request for 2009 is also in accordance
with FAA’s comprehensive plan for modernizing and improving air traffic control and airway facilities services.

The fund provides direct support for the aviation insurance
program (chapter 443 of title 49, U.S. Code). Income to the
fund is derived from premium collections for premium insurance coverage issued, income from authorized investments,
and 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.
The Homeland Security Act of 2002 (P.L. 107–296) required
the Secretary to provide additional war risk insurance coverage (Hull Loss and Passenger and Crew Liability) to air
carriers insured for Third-Party War Risk Liability as of June
19, 2002, as authorized under existing law. Continuation of
this coverage was subsequently directed by several appropriations acts, the last being the Department of Transportation
Appropriations Act of 2008, which extended the requirement
to provide insurance coverage through August 31, 2008. The
Secretary is authorized to limit an air carrier’s third party
liability to $100 million, when the Secretary certifies that
the loss was from an act of terrorism. The FAA insurance
policy covers: (i) hull losses at agreed value; (ii) death, injury,
or property loss to passengers or crew, the limit being the
same as that of the air carrier’s commercial coverage before
September 11, 2001; and (iii) third party liability, the limit
generally being twice that of such coverage.

The Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act of 1996 (P.L.
104–264) authorized the collection of user fees for air traffic
control and related services provided by the FAA to aircraft
that neither take off nor land in the United States, commonly
known as overflight fees. The Budget estimates that $52 million in overflight fees will be collected in 2009.

In 2009, FAA proposes a new account structure that replaces the Operations and Facilities and Equipment accounts
with the Air Traffic Organization and Safety and Operations
accounts to align FAA’s budget account structure with its
lines of business. No budget authority is requested in 2009
in the Facilities and Equipment account and its schedule
shows obligation and outlay amounts from prior years. Instead, 2009 funding is requested for these activities in the
Air Traffic Organization and Safety and Operations accounts.

THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2009

throughout the Nation. The President’s Budget continues
transportation infrastructure investment to increase the mobility and productivity of the Nation, strengthens transportation safety programs, and provides focus on program efficiencies, oversight, and accountability. In support of the Administration’s National Strategy to Reduce Congestion on
America’s Transportation Network, the Administration proposes using existing budgetary resources to fund a new initiative to reduce highway congestion.
In 2009, the Federal Highway Administration continues
core programs, including the Surface Transportation Program,
the National Highway System, Interstate Maintenance, Highway Safety Improvement Program, Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program, the Federal Lands Highways Program, and the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality
Improvement Program. In addition, the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation program provides Federal
credit assistance to nationally or regionally significant surface
transportation projects, and the Equity Bonus program provides funding to States based on equity considerations. Other
programs new in SAFETEA-LU include the Coordinated Border Infrastructure Program, Highways for Life Pilot Program,
National Corridor Infrastructure Improvement Program,
Projects of National and Regional Significance, and Safe
Routes to School.
In summary, the 2009 Budget consists of $41,562 million
in new budget authority and $40,637 million in outlays. The
following table reflects the total funding for all Federal Highway Administration programs.

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.

The Status of Funds table presents the status of the Highway Trust Fund. The rule governing most trust funds is that
the legal authority to incur obligations against the receipts
estimated to be collected by the fund cannot exceed the cash
balances of the fund, i.e., the actual receipts estimated to
be collected in that year. The laws governing the Highway
Trust Fund provide an exception to this rule. The legal authority to incur obligations against the Highway Trust Fund
can exceed the actual cash balances up to the receipts anticipated to be collected in the following four years.
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.
The following table shows the annual income and outlays
of programs funded by the Highway Account of the Highway
Trust Fund.

FEDERAL-AID HIGHWAYS
HIGHWAY TRUST FUND
Whenever in this fiscal year the Secretary of the Treasury (after
consultation with the Secretary of Transportation) determines that
the amount in the Highway Trust Fund (other than the Mass Transit
Account) or the Mass Transit Account is insufficient to timely meet
the anticipated payments from the account, and the amount in the
other account exceeds the amount necessary to timely meet the anticipated payments from that account, the Secretary shall transfer to
the insufficient account from such other account referred to in this
paragraph an amount up to the insufficiency or the excess in such
other account, whichever is less: Provided, That any amount transferred to the insufficient account shall be treated as a non-interest
bearing repayable advance: Provided further, That whenever in this
fiscal year or any fiscal year hereafter the Secretary of the Treasury
(after consultation with the Secretary of Transportation) determines
that the amount in the account to which an advance is made exceeds
the amount necessary to timely meet the anticipated payments from
the account, the Secretary shall transfer from that account, to the
account from which the advance was made, an amount equal to the
amount so advanced or such excess, whichever is less.

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 Budget authorizes borrowing between the Highway Account and the Mass Transit Account within the Highway
Trust Fund in fiscal year 2009 in the form of non-interest
bearing repayable advances. The borrowing would occur if
the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of Transportation, determines that during 2009, the
amount in the borrowing account is not sufficient to make
anticipated payments in a timely manner and the amount
in the lending account exceeds the amount necessary to make
anticipated payments in a timely manner.

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 continues to fund most programs from within the FederalAid Highway obligation limitation. Emergency Relief ($100
million) and a portion of the Equity Bonus program ($639
million) are exempt from the obligation limitation.
The FAH program is funded by contract authority in P.L.
109–59, the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). The
Budget proposes an obligation limitation for FAH of $39.4
billion. This funding level for 2009 reflects the obligation limitation that will fulfill the funding commitment under
SAFETEA-LU, including a downward adjustment based on
the revenue aligned budget authority (RABA) calculation enacted in SAFETEA-LU.
Surface transportation program (STP).—STP funds may be
used by States and localities for projects on any FederalSfmt 3616

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

aid highway, bridge projects on any public road, transit capital projects, and intracity and intercity bus terminals and
facilities. A portion of STP funds are set aside for transportation enhancements and State sub-allocations are provided.
National highway system (NHS).—The NHS program provides funding for a designated National Highway System consisting of roads that are of primary Federal interest. The
NHS 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.
Interstate maintenance (IM).—The IM program finances
projects to rehabilitate, restore, resurface and reconstruct
roads and bridges on the Interstate system. Reconstruction
that increases capacity, other than HOV lanes, is not eligible
for IM funds.
Emergency relief (ER).—The ER program provides funds
for the repair or reconstruction of Federal-aid highways and
bridges and Federally-owned roads and bridges that 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.
Bridge replacement and rehabilitation.—The bridge program enables States to improve the condition of their bridges
through replacement, rehabilitation, and systematic preventive maintenance. The funds are available for use on bridges
located on any public road.
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.
Federal lands.—This category funds improvement for forest
highways, park roads and parkways, Indian reservation
roads, and refuge roads. The Federal Lands Highways program provides for transportation planning, research, engineering, and construction of highways, roads, parkways, and transit facilities that provide access to or within pubic lands,
National parks, and Indian reservations.
Transportation infrastructure finance and innovation
(TIFIA) program.—The TIFIA credit program issues loans to
assist in the development of surface transportation projects
of regional and national significance. The goal is to develop
major infrastructure facilities through greater non-Federal
and private sector participation..
As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990,
this account records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated with the direct loans, loan guarantees, and lines of
credit 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 and the administrative expenses
are estimated on a cash basis.
Federal highway research, technology and education.—Research, technology, and education programs develop new
transportation technology that can be applied nationwide. Activities include surface transportation research, including Intelligent Transportation Systems; development and deployment, training and education; and University Transportation
Research.
Highway safety improvement (HSIP).—The highway infrastructure safety program, established as a core program in
2006, features strategic safety planning and performance, devotes additional resources, and supports innovative apVerDate Aug 31 2005

proaches to reducing highway fatalities and injuries on all
public roads.
Equity Bonus program.—The Equity Bonus program provides additional funds to States to ensure that each State
receives an amount based on equity considerations. Each
State is guaranteed a minimum rate of return on its share
of contributions to the Highway Account of the Highway Trust
Fund, and a minimum increase relative to the average dollar
amount of apportionments under the previous highway authorization (the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century, or TEA–21). Certain States will maintain the share
of total apportionments they each received during TEA–21.
An open-ended authorization is provided, ensuring that there
will be sufficient funds to meet the objectives of the Equity
Bonus program.
High priority projects and transportation improvements.—
Funds are provided for specific projects identified in
SAFETEA-LU, each with a specified amount of funding over
the 5 years of SAFETEA-LU.
Projects of national and regional significance.—Provides
funding for specific projects of national or regional importance. All the funds authorized for this program from the
Highway Trust Fund are designated for projects listed in
SAFETEA-LU.
Congestion Reduction Initiative.—In support of a Department-wide effort to tackle congestion in all modes of transportation, the 2009 Budget includes a $175 million initiative
for reducing highway congestion. The Budget proposes to fund
the initiative by reprogramming $175 million in unobligated
balances associated with inactive Federal-aid highway program demonstration projects. These funds will be used to
support new pricing projects in metropolitan areas and continue the Corridors of the Future program.

A total of $231.5 million (including the National Driver
Register program) is proposed for Operations and Research.
Of this amount, $105.5 million is for the Highway Safety
Research and Development Program, and $4.0 million is for
the National Driver Register program, both of which are currently authorized under SAFETEA-LU. In addition, $122.0
million is for the Vehicle Safety Program for which authorization is being requested. The Budget proposes to fund all
NHTSA programs from the Highway Trust Fund.
Programs funded under the Operations and Research appropriation are described below.
Safety Performance Standards (Rulemaking) Programs.—
Supports the 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; international harmonization of
vehicle standards; and consumer information on motor vehicle
safety, including the New Car Assessment Program.
Safety Assurance (Enforcement) Programs.—Provides support to ensure compliance with motor vehicle safety and automotive fuel economy standards, investigate safety-related
motor vehicle defects, enforce Federal odometer law, encourage enforcement of State odometer law, and conduct safety
recalls when warranted.
Research and Analysis.—Provides motor vehicle safety research and development in support of all NHTSA programs,
including the collection and analysis of crash data (also funded under Highway Safety Research) to identify safety problems; develops alternative solutions; and assesses costs, benefits, and effectiveness. Research will continue to concentrate
on improving vehicle crash worthiness and crash avoidance,
with emphasis on increasing safety belt use, decreasing alcohol involvement in crashes, decreasing the number of rollover
crashes, improving vehicle-to-vehicle crash compatibility, and
improving data systems.
Highway Safety Research Programs.—Provide research,
demonstrations, technical assistance, and national leadership
for highway safety programs conducted by State and local
governments, the private sector, universities, 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.
National Driver Register.—Provides funding to implement
and operate the Problem Driver Pointer System (PDPS) to
help identify drivers who have been suspended for or convicted of serious traffic offenses, such as driving under the
influence of alcohol or other drugs.

ries, and property damage. A State may use these grant
funds only for highway safety purposes; at least 40 percent
of these funds are to be expended by political subdivisions
of the State.
Section 405.—SAFETEA-LU reauthorized and amended
Section 405(a) of Chapter 4 of Title 23 to encourage States
to adopt and implement effective programs to reduce deaths
and injuries from riding unrestrained or improperly restrained in motor vehicles. A State may use these grant
funds only to implement and enforce occupant protection
programs.
Section 406.—SAFETEA-LU established a new program
of incentive grants to encourage the enactment and enforcement of laws requiring the use of safety belts in passenger
motor vehicles. A State may use these grant funds for any
safety purpose under Title 23 or for any project that corrects or improves a hazardous roadway location or feature
or proactively addresses highway safety problems. However,
at least $1 million of amounts received by States must
be obligated for behavioral highway safety activities.
Section 408.—SAFETEA-LU established a new program
of incentive grants to encourage States to adopt and implement effective programs to improve the timeliness, accuracy, completeness, uniformity, integration, and accessibility of State data that is needed to identify priorities
for national, State, and local highway and traffic safety
programs; to evaluate the effectiveness of efforts to make
such improvements; to link these State data systems, including traffic records, with other data systems within the
State; and to improve the compatibility of the State data
system with national data systems and data systems of
other States to enhance the ability to observe and analyze
national trends in crash occurrences, rates, outcomes, and
circumstances. A State may use these grant funds only
to implement such data improvement programs.
Section 410.—SAFETEA-LU reauthorized and amended
the alcohol-impaired driving countermeasures incentive
grant program to encourage States to adopt and implement
effective programs to reduce traffic safety problems resulting from individuals driving while under the influence of
alcohol. A state may use these grant funds to implement
the impaired driving activities described in the Programmatic Criteria, including but not limited to costs for
high visibility enforcement; the costs of training and equipment for law enforcement; the costs of advertising and educational campaigns that publicize checkpoints, increase law
enforcement efforts and target impaired drivers under 34
years of age; the costs of a State impaired operator information system, and the costs of vehicle or license plate impoundment. In addition, the Secretary is directed to make
a separate grant under the section to high fatality rate
States.
Child Safety and Child Booster Seat Safety Incentive
Grants.—Section 2011 of SAFETEA-LU established a new
incentive grant program to make grants available to States
that are enforcing a law requiring any child riding in a
passenger vehicle who is too large to be secured in a child
safety seat to be secured in a child restraint that meets
the requirements prescribed under section 3 of Anton’s Law
(49 U.S.C. 30127 note; 116 Stat. 2772). These grant funds
may be used only for child safety seat and child restraint
programs, including programs for purchasing and distributing child safety seats and child restraints to low-income
families.
Motorcyclist Safety.—Section 2010 of SAFETEA-LU established a new program of incentive grants to encourage
States to adopt and implement effective programs to reduce
the number of single and multi-vehicle crashes involving
motorcyclists. A State may use these grants funds only
for motorcyclist safety training and motorcyclist awareness

High Visibility Enforcement.—Section 2009 of SAFETEALU established a new program to administer at least two
high-visibility traffic safety law enforcement campaigns
each year to achieve one or both of the following objectives:
(1) reduce alcohol-impaired or drug-impaired operation of
motor vehicles; and/or (2) increase the use of safety belts
by occupants of motor vehicles. These funds may be used
to establish and administer the high visibility traffic safety
law enforcement campaigns, to pay for the development,
production, and use of broadcast and print media advertising in carrying out these campaigns, and by the Secretary to conduct an annual evaluation of the effectiveness
of these campaigns. Consideration is to be given to advertising directed at non-English speaking populations, including those who listen, read or watch non-traditional media.

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,
an advance appropriation of $20 million was provided for
2001, 2002, and 2003. In 2001, Congress specified that the
$20 million advance appropriation provided in 2000 for the

FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) provides grant
funding to State and local governments, public and private
transit operators, and other recipients to subsidize public
transit operations; construct new public transit systems; purchase and maintain transit vehicles and equipment; support
regional transportation planning efforts; and improve the
technology and service methods used in the delivery of public
transportation services. FTA programs also provide financial
assistance to help implement national policy goals relating
to mobility for the elderly, for individuals with disabilities,
and for those who are economically disadvantaged. In 2009,
FTA will again increase public transportation funding predictability and transparency by distributing more funds by formula, including the rural (non-urbanized area) program funds
to address unmet public transportation needs in underserved
rural communities.
This table below presents the total funding for all Federal
Transit Administration programs with additional detail provided in the budget schedules that follow.

In 2009, the National Research and Technology Program,
Transit Cooperative Research Program, University Centers
Program, and the National Transit Institute are funded in
the Research and University Research Centers account.
National Research and Technology Program funding will
be used for FTA’s safety and mobility activities. Under the
national component of the program, FTA advances the research, development, and deployment of transportation methods and technologies that address issues such as accessibility
for elderly, low income, and disabled individuals; air quality;
traffic congestion; and transit capacity and operational improvements.
The Transit Cooperative Research Program funds research
projects that are significant to the transit industry. Grant
awards support priority projects in areas of safety, security,
equipment and system design, system operations, and the
economic development impact of transit investment in transportation corridors.
Funding for the University Centers Program will provide
continued support for research, education, and technology
transfer activities aimed at addressing regional and national
transportation problems.
The National Transit Institute exists to develop and provide
transit industry employee education programs to improve
transit workforce performance, enhance security incident response capabiltiy, and to implement strategies that increase
ridership.

The National Capital Transportation Amendments of 1979
(Stark-Harris) authorized $1.7 billion in Federal funds to support the construction of the Washington, D.C Metrorail transit
system. The National Capital Transportation Amendments of
1990 authorized an additional $1.3 billion in Federal funds
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
for the Washington, D.C. Metrorail transit system in this
account for 2009.

For 2009, all programs within the Formula and Bus Grant
account are funded from the Mass Transit Account of the
Highway Trust Fund.
Formula and Bus Grants are funded by contract authority
provided in SAFETEA-LU (Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users) P.L.
109–59. 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. These funds help existing transit systems
alleviate congestion, ensure basic mobility, promote economically vibrant communities and meet the requirements of the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Clean Air
Act (CAA).
Urbanized Area Formula.—$4,552.3 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 capital assets in urban areas over
200,000 in population. In urban areas under 200,000, both
capital and operating costs are eligible expenditures. Urbanized Area Formula includes funding for the Growing States
and High Density States Formula Programs which are distributed to the Urbanized and Nonurbanized Area Formula programs using separate factors.
Fixed Guideway Modernization.—$1,666.5 million for the
acquisition, reconstruction and improvement of facilities and
equipment for use on fixed guideways, including heavy rail,
light rail, commuter rail, and ferryboat operations. Funding
for this program will help ensure that the Nation’s older
fixed guideway systems continue to meet the transportation
needs of the communities they serve.
Bus and Bus Facility Grants.—$984 million to provide investments in bus and bus-related capital projects that enhance the efficiency and safety of the nation’s bus systems.
State Administered Programs.—$928.6 million. Nonurbanized Area Formula—$538.1 million will be apportioned by
legislative formula based on each State’s nonurban areas with
populations of less than 50,000. Available funding may be
used to support intercity bus service as well as to help meet
rural and small urban areas’ transit needs, including $9.3
million for the Rural Transportation Assistance Program.
Nonurbanized Area Formula includes funding for the Growing
States Program. Formula Grants for Elderly and Individuals
with Disabilities—$133.5 million will be apportioned to each
State according to a legislatively required formula for the
purchase of vehicles and equipment and for transportation
services under a contract, lease or similar arrangement. Job
Access and Reverse Commute—$164.5 million, to be apporSfmt 3616

tioned to the States by formula to provide grants to nonprofit organizations and local transit agencies to fund transportation services in urban, suburban and rural areas to assist welfare recipients and low-income individuals to access
employment opportunities. New Freedom Program—$92.5
million, to be apportioned by formula to provide additional
tools to overcome significant barriers facing Americans with
disabilities seeking access to jobs and integration into the
workforce.
Planning.—$113.5 million to fund metropolitan and statewide planning activities.
Over-the-Road Bus Accessibility Program.—$8.8 million for
the Rural Transportation Accessibility Incentive Program.
Funding will assist operators of over-the-road buses in financing the incremental capital and training costs of complying
with the Department of Transportation’s final rule regarding
disabled accessibility of over-the-road buses required by the
Americans with Disabilities Act.
Clean Fuels Grant Program.—$51.5 million to provide financing for the purchase or lease of clean fuel buses and
bus facilities and the improvement of existing facilities to
accommodate these buses. This includes buses powered by
compressed natural gas, biodiesel fuels, batteries, alcoholbased fuels, hybrid electric, fuel cell and certain clean diesel
(up to 25 percent of grants annually), and other low or zero
emissions technology.
Alternatives Analysis Program.—$25 million provided for
transit projects in the early stage of development and to investigate transit alternatives to solving local transportation
problems.
Alternative Transportation in Parks and Public Lands.—
$26.9 million to enhance the protection of America’s national
parks and increase the enjoyment of those visiting the parks.
The goals of the Alternative Transportation in Parks program
include ensuring access for all, including individuals with disabilities; improving conservation and park and public land
opportunities in urban areas through partnering with State
and local governments; and improving park and public land
transportation.
National Transit Database (NTD).—$3.5 million for operation and maintenance of the NTD system, a database of
statistics on the transit industry, which is Congressionally
mandated under 49 U.S.C. 5335(a)(1)(2). The NTD provides
for the national collection and dissemination of a uniform
system of transit system financial accounts and operating
data. As set forth in legislative formulas, these data are used
in the national allocation of FTA formula funding.
This account was renamed in 2006 from Trust Fund Share
of Expenses consistent with the account restructuring in
SAFETEA-LU.

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) provides services to advance safety and security in hazardous materials transportation. PHMSA’s program
is focused on five principal areas. First, PHMSA provides
comprehensive regulations for the safe and secure transportation of hazardous materials. Second, through training, guidance and outreach materials, PHMSA helps shippers and carriers understand the regulations and how to comply with
them. Third, PHMSA enforces the regulations on those persons who refuse or neglect to comply with safety and security
requirements. Fourth, PHMSA assists the Nation’s response
community to plan for and respond to hazardous materials
transportation emergencies. Finally, PHMSA builds each of
these operational responsibilities on a comprehensive technical and analytical foundation.

The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires the preparation of
oil spill response plans by pipeline operators to minimize the
environmental impact of oil spills and to improve public and
private sector response capabilities. The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is responsible for the review, approval and testing of these plans, and
for ensuring that the public and the environment are provided
with an adequate level of protection from such spills. PHMSA
does this through data analysis, spill monitoring, pipeline
mapping, environmental indexing, and advanced technologies
to detect and prevent leaks.

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.
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.
2009 Program Request.—$23.085 million is requested to implement rulemakings and adjudicate the ongoing caseload
within the directives and deadlines set forth by the ICCTA.
The following paragraph is presented in compliance with
Section 703 of the ICCTA. It is presented without change
or correction.
The Board’s Request to OMB.—The Board had submitted
to the Secretary of Transportation and the Office of Management and Budget a 2009 appropriation request of $26.847
million and a request for $1.250 million from reimbursements
from the offsetting collection of user fees to operate at 150
FTEs. The offsetting collection of user fees is based on the
costs incurred by the Board for fee-related activities and is
commensurate with the costs of processing parties’ submissions. In past fiscal years, the Board received both an appropriation and authorization for offsetting collections to be made
available to the appropriation for the Board’s expenses. The
2009 Budget request reflects offsetting collections as a credit
to the appropriation received, to the extent that they are
collected.
This level of funding is necessary to implement rulemakings
and adjudicate the ongoing caseload within the deadlines imposed by ICCTA. The Board requires adequate resources to
perform key functions under the ICCTA, including rail rate
reasonableness oversight; the processing of rail consolidations,
abandonments, and other restructuring proposals; and the
resolution of non-rail matters.

The Ship Disposal program provides resources to properly
dispose of obsolete government-owned merchant-type vessels
maintained by MARAD in the National Defense Reserve
Fleet. These vessels pose a significant environmental threat
due to the presence of unexpended fuel and oil and other
hazardous substances such as asbestos and solid and liquid
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). MARAD contracts with domestic shipbreaking firms to dismantle and recycle these vessels in accordance with guidelines set forth by the U.S.
Evironmental Protection Agency.

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.

Ocean freight differential is the difference in cost incurred
in the movement of ocean cargoes. In general, when applied
to cargo preference policy implementation, it is the cost difference between using U.S.-flag carriers and foreign-flag carriers. Cargo preference provides a revenue source to help
sustain a privately-owned U.S.-flag merchant marine by requiring shippers of certain U.S. government-sponsored cargoes
to use U.S.-flag vessels. Public Law 99–108 amended the
cargo preference requirement in Section 901 of the Merchant
Marine Act by increasing the minimum required tonnage of
certain government-sponsored food-aid shipments that must
be shipped on U.S.-flag vessels from 50 to 75 percent. The
Maritime Administration is required to reimburse the U.S.
government agencies that sponsor these food-aid shipments
for the increase in ocean freight differential associated with
compliance with this expanded U.S.-flag shipping requirement.

The Maritime Administration (MARAD) is authorized to
reactivate, maintain, operate, and deactivate governmentowned merchant vessels comprising the National Defense Reserve Fleet (NDRF) and the Ready Reserve Force (RRF), a
subset of the NDRF. Resources for RRF vessel maintenance,
preservation, activation and operation costs, as well as RRF
infrastructure support costs and additional DOD/Navy-sponsored sealift activities and special projects, are provided by
reimbursement from the Defense Sealift Fund. MARAD incurs
similar obligations for government-owned merchant vessels
outside the RRF fleet and for the charter of privately-owned
merchant vessels, the cost of which is likewise provided by
reimbursement from sponsoring Federal agencies.
In addition, the fund is used by MARAD to finance the
acquisition, maintenance, preservation, protection and use of
merchant vessels involved in mortgage foreclosure or collateral forfeiture proceedings instituted by the Federal Government and not financed by the Federal Ship Financing Fund
or the Maritime Guaranteed Loan Program; and to finance
the acquisition and disposition of merchant vessels under the
Trade-In/Scrap Out program. Direct appropriations for the
disposal of obsolete government-owned merchant vessels are
provided to a separate account within the ship disposal program.

The Merchant Marine Act of 1936, as amended, established
the Federal Ship Financing Fund to support the U.S. merchant marine by guaranteeing vessel construction loans and

are appropriated to this account, then transferred to and
merged with the Operations and Training account.
No new funds for loan guarantees are requested for 2009.
