Appropriations Act for 2010
AGENCY: Office of the Secretary of Transportation, DOT.
ACTION: Notice of extension of deadline to submit pre-applications.
----------------------------------------------------------------------SUMMARY: On June 1, 2010, DOT published a notice (75 FR 30461)
announcing the availability of funding and requesting proposals for
DOT's National Infrastructure Investments grant program under the FY
2010 Appropriations Act. The DOT is referring to the grants for
National Infrastructure Investments as ``TIGER II Discretionary
Grants.'' Through this notice, DOT is extending the deadline to submit
pre-applications for TIGER II Discretionary Grants from July 16, 2010,
at 5 p.m. EDT to July 26, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT. The deadline for
submitting final applications is not being extended, and remains August
23, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT.
DATES: Pre-applications must be submitted by July 26, 2010, at 5 p.m.
EDT (the ``Pre-Application Deadline''). Final applications must be
submitted through Grants.gov by August 23, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT (the
``Application Deadline''). The DOT pre-application system opened on
June 23, 2010 to allow prospective applicants to submit preapplications. Subsequently, the Grants.gov ``Apply'' function will open
on July 30, 2010, allowing applicants to submit applications. While
applicants are encouraged to submit pre-applications in advance of the
Pre-Application Deadline, pre-applications will not be reviewed until
after the Pre-Application Deadline. Similarly, while applicants are
encouraged to submit applications in advance of the Application
Deadline, applications will not be evaluated, and awards will not be
made, until after the Application Deadline. Pursuant to the FY 2010
Appropriations Act, the DOT will evaluate all applications and announce
the projects that have been selected to receive TIGER II Discretionary
Grants no sooner than September 15, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Pre-applications must be submitted electronically to DOT,
and applications must be submitted electronically through Grants.gov.
Only pre-applications received by DOT and applications received through
Grants.gov will be deemed properly filed. Instructions for submitting

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 26, 2010, DOT published an interim
notice (75 FR 21695) announcing the availability of funding and
requesting proposals for the Department of Transportation's National
Infrastructure Investments program under the Transportation, Housing
and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act for 2010
(Div. A of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111-117,
Dec. 16, 2009)) (the ``FY 2010 Appropriations Act''). The DOT is
referring to the grants for National Infrastructure Investments under
the FY 2010 Appropriations Act as ``TIGER II Discretionary Grants.''
Because this is a new program, the interim notice also requested
comments on the proposed selection criteria and guidance for awarding
TIGER II Discretionary Grants. The DOT considered the comments that
were submitted in accordance with the interim notice and published an
additional notice revising some elements of the interim notice on June
1, 2010 (75 FR 30461). This notice makes one additional revision to the
notice published on June 1, 2010. This notice extends the deadline for
submitting pre-applications from July 16, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT to July
26, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT. The deadline for submitting final applications
is not being extended, and remains August 23, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT.
