Abstract: The Infrastructure
Investment and Jobs Act (Pub. L. 117–
58, November 15, 2021) (‘‘Bipartisan
Infrastructure Law’’ or ‘‘BIL’’)
appropriated $450 million to the PIDP
for FY 2024 to make discretionary grants
for eligible projects. On March 9, 2024,
the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2024 (Pub. L. 118–42) (‘‘FY 2024
Appropriations Act’’) appropriated an
additional $120,460,124 for the FY 2024

$50 million is available to be awarded
as discretionary grants. Altogether, a
total $500 million in funding is now
available to be awarded by the U.S.
Department of Transportation
(Department) for the Port Infrastructure
Development Program (Program). This
appropriations act allows the
Department to make discretionary grants
to improve port facilities at or near
coastal seaports. The purpose of the
Program is to accept applications to
make grants. Submitted applications
will be reviewed to determine if
respondents meet the criteria for
selection as grant recipients.
The Port Infrastructure Development
Program was established under 46
U.S.C. 50302. The statute authorizes the
Department of Transportation
(‘‘Department’’ or ‘‘DOT’’) to establish a
port infrastructure development
program for the improvement of port
facilities. To carry out a project under
this program, the Department may
provide financial assistance, including
grants to port authorities or
commissions, or to their subdivisions
and agents, for port and intermodal
infrastructure-related projects.
The Department seeks to fund projects

reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the
transportation sector. Proposed projects
must also create proportional impacts to
all populations in a project area,
increase equitable access to project
benefits, support the creation of goodpaying jobs with the free and fair choice
to join a union, and include the
incorporation of strong labor standards,
training, and placement programs,
especially registered apprenticeships.
