the public interest would be adversely
affected.
Applicant asserts that there are no
significant fixed charges associated with
the contemplated transaction. Applicant
also states that it does not anticipate a
measurable reduction in force or
changes in compensation levels or
benefits to employees. Applicant
submits, however, that staffing
redundancies could result in limited
downsizing of back-office or managerial
level personnel.
The Board finds that the acquisition
proposed in the application is
consistent with the public interest and
should be tentatively approved and
authorized. If any opposing comments
are timely filed, these findings will be
deemed vacated, and, unless a final
decision can be made on the record as
developed, a procedural schedule will
be adopted to reconsider the
application. See 49 CFR 1182.6(c). If no
opposing comments are filed by the
expiration of the comment period, this
notice will take effect automatically and
will be the final Board action.
This action is categorically excluded
from environmental review under 49
CFR 1105.6(c).
Board decisions and notices are
available on our Web site at
‘‘WWW.STB.GOV’’.
It is ordered:
1. The proposed transaction is
approved and authorized, subject to the
filing of opposing comments.
2. If opposing comments are timely
filed, the findings made in this notice
will be deemed vacated.
3. This notice will be effective
December 27, 2017, unless opposing
comments are filed by December 26,

Fiscal Year 2017 Positive Train Control
Grant Program Project Selections

(FRA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Transportation’s (DOT) Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) and Federal
Railroad Administration (FRA)
announce the selection of projects for
the Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 Positive Train
Control (PTC) Grant Program. A total of
$197.01 million in the PTC grant
funding, authorized under the Fixing
America’s Surface Transportation
(FAST) Act, will be provided to 17
projects in 13 states. On July 29, 2016,
FTA and FRA published a Notice of
Funding Opportunity (NOFO)
announcing the availability of Federal
funding for the PTC Grant Program.
These funds will provide financial
assistance to states, local governments,
and public agencies for the
implementation of positive train control
systems to improve safety. Funds
allocated in this announcement must be
obligated in a grant by September 30,
2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Recipients selected for competitive
funding in Table 1 should contact the
appropriate FTA Regional Office for
information regarding applying for the
funds or program-specific information.
A list of FTA’s Regional Offices can be
found at www.fta.dot.gov. For questions
regarding PTC technology or statutory
and regulatory requirements, please
contact Mr. Devin Rouse, Program
Manager, Federal Railroad
Administration (phone: (202) 493–6185,
email: devin.rouse@dot.gov). A TDD is
available at 1–800–877–8339 (TDD/
FIRS).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
response to the NOFO, FTA and FRA
received 27 proposals from 16 states
requesting $455 million in Federal
funds, indicating significant demand for
funding to expedite the implementation

of PTC systems. Project proposals were
evaluated based on each applicant’s
responses to the program evaluation
criteria outlined in the NOFO.
FTA is funding the 17 projects shown
in Table 1 for a total of $197.01 million.
Recipients selected for competitive
funding should 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. As funds must
be obligated by September 30, 2018, all
grant applications must be submitted to
FTA by June 30, 2018. Grant
applications must include the eligible
activities applied for in the original
project application. Funds must be used
consistent with the competitive
proposal and for the eligible capital
purposes established in the NOFO.
In cases where the award amount is
less than the proposer’s total requested
amount, recipients must submit grant
applications to fund the scalable project
option as described in the project’s
application. If the award amount does
not correspond to the scalable option,
for example due to a cap on the award
amount, the recipient should work with
the FTA Regional Office to reduce scope
or scale the project so that a complete
phase or project is accomplished.
Recipients are reminded that program
requirements such as cost sharing or
local match can be found in the NOFO.
A discretionary project identification
number has been assigned to each
project for tracking purposes and must
be used in the TrAMS application.
On October 16, 2008, Congress
enacted the Railroad Safety
Improvement Act of 2008 (RSIA), which
required Class 1 railroad main lines and
commuter railroad passenger service to
fully implement positive train control
by December 31, 2015. In the Positive
Train Control Enforcement and
Implementation Act of 2015, Congress
extended the deadline for implementing
positive train control to December 31,
2018. FTA will streamline the grant
application process to help commuter
railroads meet the approaching
deadline. FTA is providing pre-award
authority and will reimburse eligible
project costs on successful projects
consistent with the selected project
proposals. The eligibility for
reimbursement using pre-award
authority is contingent upon the project
meeting other Federal requirements,
such as environmental requirements,
prior to costs being incurred. FTA is not
applying its regulation, 49 CFR part 633
Project Management Oversight to this
program. Furthermore, FTA waives the
requirement that projects be listed in the
