Notice of Funding Availability for the Department of Transportation's National Infrastructure Investments under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014
Document Number: 2014-04627
Type: Notice
Date: 2014-03-03
Agency: Department of Transportation, Office of the Secretary of Transportation
This notice announces the availability of funding and requests proposals for the Department of Transportation's National Infrastructure Investments. This notice is addressed to organizations that are interested in applying and provides guidance on selection criteria and application requirements for the National Infrastructure Investments. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014 (Pub. L. 113-76, January 17, 2014) (``FY 2014 Appropriations Act'') appropriated $600 million to be awarded by the Department of Transportation (``DOT'') for National Infrastructure Investments. This appropriation is similar, but not identical, to the program funded and implemented pursuant to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the ``Recovery Act'') known as the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery, or ``TIGER Discretionary Grants,'' program. Because of the similarity in program structure, DOT will continue to refer to the program as ``TIGER Discretionary Grants.'' As with previous rounds of TIGER, funds for the FY 2014 TIGER program (``TIGER FY 2014'') are to be awarded on a competitive basis for projects that will have a significant impact on the Nation, a metropolitan area, or a region. Through this notice, DOT is soliciting applications for TIGER Discretionary Grants. In the event that this solicitation does not result in the award and obligation of all available funds, DOT may decide to publish an additional solicitation(s).
