proposal debriefing. A TDD is available at 1-800-877-8339 (TDD/FIRS).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C.
5339(b)) authorizes FTA to make competitive grants for the Buses and
Bus Facilities Program. Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C.
5339(c)) authorizes FTA to make competitive grants for the Low-No
Program.
Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C. 5338(a)(2)(M))
authorized $375,696,244 in FY 2022 funds for the Grants for Buses and
Bus Facilities Program. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (Pub.
L. 117-103), appropriated an additional $175,000,000 for the Grants for
Buses and Bus Facilities Program. After the oversight takedown of
$4,666,931, the total funding is $546,029,313 for the Grants for Buses
and Bus Facilities Program. FTA is also making available an additional
$5,479,636 of recovered funding for this round, bringing the total
available funding to $551,508,949.
Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C. 5338(a)(2)(M))
authorized $71,561,189 in FY 2022 funds for the Low or No Emission
Grant Program; plus an additional $1,050,000,000 appropriated under the
2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (enacted as the Infrastructure
Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58). The Consolidated
[[Page 50917]]
Appropriations Act, 2022, appropriated an additional $75,000,000 for
the Low or No Emission Grant Program. After the oversight takedown and
transfer to Office of Inspector General, the total funding available is
$1,174,998,689 for the Low-No Program.
On March 4, 2022, FTA published a joint Notice of Funding
Opportunity (NOFO) (87 FR 12528) announcing the availability of
approximately $372 million in FY 2022 Buses and Bus Facilities Program
funds and approximately $1.1 billion in Low-No funds. After this NOFO
was published, Congress enacted the FY22 Consolidated Appropriations
Act, which made additional funding available to the two programs.
Consistent with the NOFO, which stated that FTA ``may award additional
funding that is made available to the programs prior to the
announcement of project selections,'' FTA is electing to add the FY22
Consolidated Appropriations Act funding made available for both
programs to this NOFO. These funds will provide financial assistance to
states and eligible public agencies to replace, rehabilitate, purchase,
or lease buses, vans, and related equipment, and for capital projects
to rehabilitate, purchase, construct, or lease bus-related facilities.
For the Low-No Program, projects must be directly related to the low or
no-emission vehicles within the fleet. In response to the NOFO, FTA
received 530 eligible project proposals totaling approximately $7.71
billion in Federal funds. Project proposals were evaluated based on
each applicant's responsiveness to the program evaluation criteria
outlined in the NOFO.
Based on the criteria in the NOFO, FTA is funding 100 projects, as
shown in Table 1, for a total of $1,105,329,750 for the Low-No Program
and 50 projects, as shown in Table 2, for a total of $551,366,311 for
the Buses and Bus Facilities Program. A minimum of 15 percent of the
amounts made available for the Buses and Bus Facilities Program are set
aside for projects located in rural areas, which is reflected in FTA's
selections. A statutory cap of 10 percent for any one applicant in the
Buses and Bus Facilities Program is reflected as well. A minimum of 25
percent of the amounts made available for the Low or No Emission Grant
Program are set aside for projects related to the acquisition of low or
no emission buses or bus facilities other than zero emission vehicles
and related facilities. In response to this NOFO, FTA did not receive
enough applications to the Low or No Emission Grant Program for low
emission projects to exhaust this set-aside. FTA intends to include the
remainder of this set-aside in the next NOFO that it issues for the
Low-No Emission Grant Program. Recipients selected for competitive
funding are required to work with their FTA Regional Office to submit a
grant application in FTA's Transit Award Management System (TrAMS) for
the projects identified in the attached table to quickly obligate
funds. Grant applications must include only eligible activities applied
for in the original project application. Funds must be used consistent
with the competitive proposal and for the eligible capital purposes
described in the NOFO.
In cases where the allocation amount is less than the proposer's
total requested amount, recipients are required to fund the scalable
project option as described in the application. If the award amount
does not correspond to the scalable option, the recipient should work
with the Regional Office to reduce scope or scale the project such that
a complete phase or project is accomplished. Recipients may also
provide additional local funds to complete a proposed project. A
discretionary project identification number has been assigned to each
project for tracking purposes and must be used in the TrAMS
application.
Selected projects are eligible to incur costs under pre-award
authority no earlier than the date projects were publicly announced.
Pre-award authority does not guarantee that project expenses incurred
prior to the award of a grant will be eligible for reimbursement, as
eligibility for reimbursement is contingent upon other requirements,
such as planning and environmental requirements, having been met. For
more about FTA's policy on pre-award authority, please see the current
FTA Apportionments, Allocations, and Program Information at <a href="https://www.transit.dot.gov/funding/apportionments">https://www.transit.dot.gov/funding/apportionments</a>. Post-award reporting
requirements include submission of Federal Financial Reports and
Milestone Progress Reports in TrAMS (see FTA Circular 5010.1E).
Recipients must comply with all applicable Federal statutes,
regulations, executive orders, FTA circulars, and other Federal
requirements in carrying out the project supported by the FTA grant.
FTA emphasizes that recipients must follow all third-party procurement
requirements set forth in Federal public transportation law (49 U.S.C.
5325(a)) and described in the FTA Third Party Contracting Guidance
Circular (FTA Circular 4220.1). Funds allocated in this announcement
must be obligated in a grant by September 30, 2025.
Technical Review and Evaluation Summary: The FTA assessed all
project proposals that were submitted under the FY 2022 Buses and Bus
Facilities Program and the Low or No Emission Program competition
according to the following evaluation criteria. The specific metrics
for each criterion were described in the March 4, 2022, NOFO:
1. Demonstration of Need
2. Demonstration of Benefits
3. Planning/Local Prioritization
4. Local Financial Commitment
5. Project Implementation Strategy
6. Technical, Legal, and Financial Capacity
For each project, a technical review panel assigned a rating of
Highly Recommended, Recommended, or Not Recommended for each of the six
criteria. The technical review panel then assigned an overall rating of
Highly Recommended, Recommended, Not Recommended, or Ineligible to the
project proposal.
Projects were assigned a final overall rating of Highly Recommended
if they were rated Highly Recommended in at least four categories
overall, with no Not Recommended ratings. Projects were assigned a
final overall rating of Recommended if the projects had three or more
Recommended ratings and no Not Recommended ratings. Projects were
assigned a rating of Not Recommended if they received a Not Recommended
rating in any criteria. A summary of the final overall ratings for all
530 eligible project proposals is shown in the table below.
Overall Project Ratings

[[Page 50918]]
Not Recommended................................................. 22 21 43
-----------------------------------------------
Total....................................................... 282 248 530
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As outlined in the NOFO, FTA made the final selections based on the
technical ratings as well as geographic diversity, diversity in the
size of transit systems receiving funding, Administration priorities
including climate change, the creation of good-paying jobs, an
application's zero-emission fleet transition plan supporting a full
fleet transition, and/or receipt of other recent competitive awards.
As further outlined in the NOFO, in some cases, due to funding
limitations, proposers that were selected for funding received less
than the amount originally requested.
