SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 49 U.S.C. Section 5337—State of
Good Repair Program.
Abstract: 49 U.S.C. 5337, the State of
Good Repair Grants Program, is a new
program authorized by Moving Ahead
for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP–
21). The State of Good Repair Grants
Program replaces the SAFETEA–LU
Fixed Guideway Modernization
Program. This program authorizes the
Secretary of Transportation to make
grants to designated recipients to
replace and rehabilitate high intensity
fixed guideway systems and high
intensity motorbus systems. Eligible
recipients include state and local
government authorities in urbanized
areas with high intensity fixed
guideway systems and/or high intensity
motorbus systems operating for at least
seven years. Projects are funded at 80
percent federal with a 20 percent local
match requirement by statute. FTA will
apportion funds to designated
recipients. The designated recipients
will then allocate funds as appropriate
to recipients that are public entities in
the urbanized areas. FTA can make
grants to direct recipients after suballocation of funds. Recipients apply for
grants electronically, and FTA collects
milestone and financial status reports
from designated recipients on a
quarterly basis. The information
submitted ensures FTA’s compliance
with applicable federal laws.
