Background Section 3019 of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, Public Law 114–94, permits FTA grantees—meaning a recipient or subrecipient of assistance under chapter 53 of title 49, United States Code—to purchase rolling stock and related equipment from cooperative procurement contracts entered into by either a State government or an eligible nonprofit entity and one or more Transit Vehicle Manufacturer (TVM). Section 3019 was designed to address the high purchasing costs attributable to the relatively small size of procurements for rolling stock and related equipment, particularly for small and rural public transportation providers. Many States currently have authority to enter into cooperative purchasing contracts, also known as ‘‘State schedules.’’ However, such authority was not previously extended to nonprofit entities. II. Pilot Program Description Section 3019(b)(3) authorizes a Pilot Program to demonstrate the effectiveness of cooperative procurement contracts administered by eligible nonprofit entities. A cooperative procurement contract in the Pilot Program means a contract between an eligible nonprofit entity and one or more TVM(s) under which the TVM(s) agree to provide an option to purchase rolling stock and related equipment to multiple grantee participants. Where permitted by State law, a grantee may participate in a cooperative E:\FR\FM\11MYN1.SGM 11MYN1
