Recognizing a compelling need to
strengthen the management and
oversight of major capital projects, in
the Surface Transportation and Uniform
Relocation Assistance Act of 1987
(STURAA) (Pub. L. 100–17) (April 2,
1987), Congress authorized FTA’s
predecessor agency, the Urban Mass
Transportation Administration (UMTA),
to conduct oversight of major capital
projects and to promulgate a rule for
that purpose. The statute, now codified
at 49 U.S.C. 5327, authorizes FTA to
obtain the services of project
management oversight contractors
(PMOCs) to assist FTA in overseeing the
expenditure of Federal financial
assistance for major capital projects.

Further, the statute requires FTA to
promulgate a regulation that includes a
definition of ‘‘major capital project’’ to
identify the types of projects governed
by the rule.
Accordingly, UMTA promulgated a
rule for oversight of major capital
projects on September 1, 1989, at 49
CFR part 633 (54 FR 36708). At that
time, UMTA’s capital programs were
comparatively small, relative to today,
totaling a little more than $2 billion
annually. UMTA promulgated a
regulation that defined ‘‘major capital
project’’ as any project for the
construction of a new fixed guideway or
extension of an existing fixed guideway
or a project involving the rehabilitation
or modernization of an existing fixed
guideway with a total project cost of
$100 million or more. The rule limited
covered projects to those receiving
funds made available under sections 3,
9, or 18 of the Urban Mass
Transportation Act of 1964, as amended;
23 U.S.C. 103(e)(4); or section 14(b) of
the National Capital Transportation
Amendments of 1979. That rule is still
in effect today.
By 2011, the annual dollar value of
the Federal transit capital programs was
nearly five times the level authorized
under STURAA in 1987, and the
number of active PMOC task orders was
more than double the number in 1987.
Furthermore, FTA funded a larger
number of projects with a total cost of
more than one billion dollars that
presented significant oversight
challenges. On September 13, 2011,
FTA published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (NPRM) (76 FR 56378) that
proposed to: (1) Enable FTA to identify
the necessary management capacity and
capability of a sponsor of a major capital
project more clearly; (2) spell out the
many facets of project management that
must be addressed in a project
management plan; (3) tailor the level of
FTA oversight to the costs,
complexities, and risks of a major
capital project; (4) set forth the means
and objectives of risk assessments for
major capital projects and; (5) articulate
the roles and responsibilities of FTA’s
PMOCs.
After the NPRM was published,
however, the Moving Ahead for Progress
in the 21st Century Act (MAP–21) (Pub.
L. 112–141) (July 6, 2012) repealed the
Fixed Guideway Modernization
program, created the State of Good
Repair program, and amended the
Capital Investment Grants Program to
add Core Capacity Improvement
projects and streamline the New and
Small Starts project development
process. Moreover, MAP–21 shifted the
initiation of project management
