FTA to host webinar on proposed project evaluation rulemaking
advertisement
On Thursday, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) will host a webinar to review an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM), which would incorporate public comments to change the way major transit project proposals seeking federal funding are rated and evaluated by the agency.
The FTA is seeking input from riders, local and state governments and other parties on the best ways to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of New Starts and Small Starts program projects, as well as the projects' economic development and environmental benefits.
FTA Deputy Administrator Therese McMillan and other FTA staff members will be online to explain the ANPRM and field questions.
