On July 1, 2011 the Department of Transportation published an interim notice announcing the availability of funding for the Department of Transportation’s National Infrastructure Investments, or TIGER Discretionary Grants. The interim notice requested comments on the project selection criteria and pre-application and application requirements. The Department of Transportation considered the comments that were submitted in accordance with the interim notice and decided to make no substantive revisions to the interim notice based on those comments.
However, the Department has decided to make minor revisions to the interim notice, to provide additional information to potential applicants on the project readiness characteristics that the Department considers when evaluating an application (see section I(b) and Appendix C). The Department has also updated the point-of-contact information for program staff that should be contacted with any questions regarding the application process for these grants. To view the minor changes please visit the final NOFA by clicking here.
Pre-applications must be submitted by October 3, 2011, and final applications must be submitted by October 31, 2011.
