Non-emergency Transit, and RYDE micro-transit) into one, system: On-Demand.
Robert Williams from GET provided a summary of the new service and explained why GET is considering
changing its paratransit services. Highlights were expansion of the micro transit zone (which is 7.6 sq. miles),

TO: Transportation Technical Advisory Committee
FROM: AHRON HAKIMI,
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
By: Joseph Stramaglia,
Project Delivery Team Lead
SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITERM: VI.
KCOG PROJECT DELIVERY POLICY AND PROCEDURES UPDATE
DESCRIPTION:
The KCOG Project Delivery Policy and Procedures document (Policy) will be updated to require the annual status
reporting of TDA Article 3 projects not yet advanced.
DISCUSSION:
Last November, interest was expressed by the TTAC Chair and others, to add additional reporting requirements for
the Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 project delivery, concurrent with the requirement already in place
for CMAQ and RSTP project delivery. The current Policy requires agencies to submit a letter to Kern COG explaining
why they are late in submitting a federal-aid authorization request to Caltrans when not accomplished by the end of
January. Each year, Kern COG staff requests project delivery letters be submitted in January for presentation to the
TTAC and Board in February.
Kern COG staff updated the current Policy to require the submittal of a status letter in January for TDA Article 3
projects that have not yet been delivered. Kern COG staff currently conducts quarterly Project Accountability Team
meetings each year to ensure that programmed projects are advancing in a timely manner in order to not lose federal
funding to the region. During these meetings, TDA Article 3 funded projects are listed and discussed and the reporting
of non-activity for TDA Article 3 projects in January of each year will provide transparency to the Board. TDA Article
3 is a discretionary program; projects are ranked and prioritized based on merit.
Staff circulated the draft Policy update to TTAC and Kern COG Board in February as an information item. Comments

The Kern Council of Governments is the regional planning agency as well as the technical and
informational resource, and ride share administrator for the area's 11 incorporated cities and the
County of Kern. Following Board direction, staff coordinates between local, state, and federal
agencies to avoid overlap or duplication of programs. This intergovernmental coordination
enables staff to work with many public agencies to ensure that planning and implementation of
programs proceed in a coordinated manner.

Background
On December 4, 2015, President Obama signed into law Public Law 114-94, the Fixing America’s
Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act). The FAST Act funds surface transportation programs
including, but not limited to, Federal-aid highwaysat over $305 billion for fiscal years (FY) 2016
through 2020. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration
(FTA) administer the policies and programs of the FAST Act. The Moving Ahead for Progress in
the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), enacted in 2012, included provisions to make the Federal surface
transportation more streamlined, performance-based, and multimodal, and to address
challenges facing the U.S. transportation system, including improving safety, maintaining
infrastructure condition, reducing traffic congestion, improving efficiency of the system and
freight movement, protecting the environment, and reducing delays in project delivery. The FAST
Act builds on the changes made by MAP-21 and continues both the Regional Surface
Transportation Program (RSTP) and Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) programs with the
same flexibility to fund road (including road rehabilitation), pedestrian, bicycle, and transit
projects. The federal Transportation Alternatives Program is included and has been transformed
into the state Active Transportation Program (ATP) in California.
Chapter 2: Implementation Procedures Overview
PROJECT DELIVERY POLICIES & PROCEDURES 2-2
Kern Council of Governments
Federal Requirements (FAST ACT) - STP, CMAQ, and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funds
(among other programs) must be obligated within 4 years of apportionment. Funds not obligated
are lost to the state.
State Requirements (AB-1012) - RSTP and CMAQ funds must be obligated within 3 years of
apportionment. Funds not obligated are lost to the region.
Regional Requirements - KCOG requires regional deadline requirements, including obligation,
award and invoicing deadlines, to expedite project delivery and ensure funds are not lost to the
region.
Project Delivery Policy and Timeline
The RSTP, CMAQ and ATP programs, as well as other state and federal funds, are subject to
regional project delivery policies. These policies are critical to ensure that the region is able to
use its state and federally apportioned transportation funding in a timely manner. By meeting
delivery targets, the region is able to maximize its use of federal all funding on transportation
projects. In addition, if the region is successful in meeting state mandated delivery deadlines, it
may be rewarded with more transportation dollars.
State Legislation (AB-1012) established penalties for not delivering RSTP or CMAQ and other
federal-aid projects within prescribed deadlines. KCOG, working with its partners, has imposed
its own deadlines to ensure funds are not lost to the region. These delivery deadlines at the
federal, state and regional levels are outlined below.
KCOG has established these deadlines for funding in the RSTP and CMAQ Programs to ensure
timely project delivery against state and federal funding deadlines. This policy establishes rules
for enforcing project deadlines for these funds under the MAP-21 transportation authorization
act. Key policy elements include:
Obligation requests shall be submitted to Caltrans Local Assistance by February 1 of the year
the funds are programmed in the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP);
Funds shall be obligated by March 31 of the year programmed in the FTIP;
The agency shall execute and return the Program Supplement Agreement (PSA) to Caltrans
within 60 days of receiving the PSA from Caltrans;
Once obligated, funds shall be invoiced against at least once every six months;
For funds contracted out, a contract shall be awarded within 6 months of obligation;
Projects shall be closed out within six months of final invoice.
Projects that do not meet these deadlines are subject to review and possible deprogramming by
KCOG, or de-obligation by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). There is no guarantee
Chapter 2: Implementation Procedures Overview
PROJECT DELIVERY POLICIES & PROCEDURES 2-3
Kern Council of Governments
that funds are available once deprogrammed or de-obligated. The intent of this regional delivery
policy is to ensure implementing agencies do not lose any funds because of a deadline and to
provide maximum flexibility in solving potential problems in good faith. Figure 2-A on the next
page summarizes the reporting procedures for implementation by KCOG staff to monitor and
identify projects that fall behind schedule.
The Transportation Development Act (TDA) Program Article 3 Program is incorporated by
reference, into Figure 2-A with regards to the delivery of regionally approved improvements. TDA
Article 3 projects are subject to the requirement to submit a letter to Kern COG during the Kern
COG policies and procedures for the TDA program as described in Chapter 7 of this document.
Chapter 7 reflects the established and required process for the Article 3 program project
selection and delivery process which is a sub-set of the entire TDA program. Approved Article 3
projects are to be included and discussed at the quarterly project accountability team meetings.
Anticipated phased or larger projects may be exempt from the annual status letter when Kern
COG ismade aware through the call for projects process and written notice that the project is
under consideration for a future allocation. However, once a project is identified in an adopted
Program of Projects, that project will be subject to the timely use of funds provision. Additionally,
a time limit is already established and described in Chapter 7 of this document to advance TDA
Article 3 projects that receive funding approval through Kern COG. That policy is repeated below:
Time Limitation - Projects approved for funding in one fiscal year shall be
considered void if construction is not started by the end of the following fiscal year.
Funds allocated within the Local Transportation Fund and those disbursed to a
claimant's local treasury shall then be returned or refunded to the unallocated
pedestrian/bikeway reserve account for reallocation during the next program
funding cycle.

Important Note: Formal FTIP amendments are no longer available at predictable points in time due to air quality conformity requirements and
federal financial constraint programming limitations. Project replacement solutions involving formal amendments require more time than what
remains in a given federal fiscal year. Projects proposed for acceleration should rely on the “Expedited Project Selection Procedure” process,
already in place, which allows for project delivery within the federal triennial element of the FTIP.

POST - FTIP ADJUSTMENTS PROJECTS WITH UNUSED PROGRAMMING OR IN NEED OF ADDITIONAL REIMBURSEMENT
All post FTIP adjustments are at the discretion of the Caltrans Office of Local Assistance or Federal Transit Administration.
First priority for post FTIP adjustments –The implementing agency should first try to use or manage variations in cost.
Second priority for post FTIP adjustments Notify TTAC members and project delivery staff of availability of obligation authority from an
encumbered project ready for final invoicing and project closeout.
All post FTIP adjustments are subject to procedural limitations set by the Caltrans Office of Local Assistance, Federal Transit Administration and
the Federal Highways Administration.
Chapter 2: Implementation Procedures Overview
PROJECT DELIVERY POLICIES & PROCEDURES 2-5
Kern Council of Governments
Implementation Procedures
KCOG staff regularly reports to the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC) and
Transportation Planning and Policy Committee (TPPC) on an annual basis of project delivery
status for all projects identified in the Federal Transportation Improvement Program.
Communication of project status requires the active participation of project managers and KCOG
staff on a regular basis. In order to effectively administrate this project delivery policy, there is a
need to gather project delivery information on a quarterly or possibly a monthly (ongoing) basis.
To that end, KCOG staff shall develop a database application that supports a checklist and date
completed database for all active federal-aid projects. This database will house analysis data;
deadline information for use in comparing target dates to actual dates indicated for project
delivery accomplishments. Should there be ongoing issues with the advancement of a project,
KCOG staff will advise the TTAC and the TPPC of the issues surrounding project delays, require
additional written information on the status and commitments from the implementing agency
and whether there is an opportunity to redirect programming to another project. Directing the
attention of the TTAC and TPPC to projects that have fallen behind will increase lead agency
accountability and improve project delivery countywide.
General Policy
KCOG has established deadlines for funding in the RSTP, CMAQ, Active Transportation Program
(ATP) and other federal-aid transportation programs to ensure timely project delivery against
state and federal funding deadlines. This document establishes a regional policy for enforcing
project funding deadlines and project substitutions for these state and federal funds.
Projects in each federal-aid program are chosen based on eligibility, project merit, and
deliverability within the established deadlines. It is the responsibility of the implementing agency
at the time of programming, to ensure that regional deadlines and provisions of the project
delivery policy can be met. KCOG staff will actively monitor and report the obligation status of
projects to the TTAC and TPPC. KCOG staff will monitor project delivery and report issues as they
arise and make recommendations to the TTAC and TPPC as necessary.
KCOG and the implementing agency or partnering agencies may determine that circumstances
may justify changes to project programming as reflected in the currently approved TIP. These
revisions, or amendments, are not routine. KCOG staff reviews all amendment proposals before
the KCOG Board considers any formal actions on program amendments. All changes must follow
KCOG’s Public Involvement Process and Federal Air Quality Procedures and Conformity Protocol.
Changes must be consistent with the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), must not adversely
affect the expeditious implementation of Transportation Control Measures (TCMs), must not
negatively impact the deliverability of other projects in the regional programs, and must not
affect the conformity finding in the FTIP.
Chapter 2: Implementation Procedures Overview
PROJECT DELIVERY POLICIES & PROCEDURES 2-6
Kern Council of Governments
In selecting projects to receive redirected funding, the KCOG Board may use existing lists of
projects that did not receive funding in past programming exercises, or direct the funds to
agencies with proven on-time project delivery, or could identify other projects with merit to
receive the funding, or retain the funding for future programming cycles. The KCOG Board will
make final decisions regarding the reprogramming of available funds based on KCOG staff
recommendations, or the recommendation of the Executive Director or the recommendations of
the TTAC.
Project Cost Savings/Reductions in Scope/Project Failures
From time to time projects may be completed at a lower cost than anticipated, or have a minor
reduction in scope resulting in a lower project cost, or may not proceed to implementation. In
such circumstances, the implementing agency shall notify KCOG and Caltrans within a timely
manner, that the funds resulting from these ‘project savings’ will not be used. Project savings
accrued prior to the established obligation deadline may be available for redirection within the
program of origin. Savings within the formula based programs, such as county guaranteed
funding returned to counties based on a population share, may be available for redirection by
KCOG within the formula program. For all programs, the projects using the redirected savings
prior to the obligation deadline must still obligate the funds within the original deadline. Project
savings or unused funding realized after the obligation deadline return to KCOG. Any funds that
have been obligated but remain unused will be de-obligated from the project and returned to
the KCOG Board for redirection.
Project Advances
Obligations for funds advanced from future years of the FTIP will be permitted only upon the
availability of surplus Obligation Authority (OA) and State Budget Authority (SBA) in a particular
year, with current programmed projects that have met the delivery deadlines having priority for
OA in a given year. Advanced obligations will be based on the availability of OA and will only be
considered between May 1 and August 15 of each year. Obligation requests for surplus OA funds
must be submitted no later than June 30; however, requests submitted by May 1
st
have a better
chance of being obligated. Implementing agencies wishing to advance projects may instead
request Advance Construction (AC) authorization from Caltrans (or pre-award authority from the
FTA) to proceed with the project using local funds until OA becomes available.
Specific Policy Provisions
Projects selected to receive RSTP or CMAQ funding must have a demonstrated ability to use the
funds within the established regional, state and federal deadlines. This criterion will be used for
selecting projects for funding, and for placement of funding in a particular year of the FTIP. It is
the responsibility of the implementing agency to ensure the funds can be used within the
established regional, state and federal deadlines and that the provisions of the regional delivery
Chapter 2: Implementation Procedures Overview
PROJECT DELIVERY POLICIES & PROCEDURES 2-7
Kern Council of Governments
policy can be met. It is also the responsibility of the implementing agency to continuously monitor
the progress of the programmed funds against regional, state and federal deadlines, and to
report any potential difficulties in meeting these deadlines, (or difficulties in meeting the
provisions of the regional delivery policy) to KCOG, Caltrans and partnering agencies within a
timely manner, to seek solutions to potential problems well in advance of potential delivery
failure or permanent loss of funding. Specific provisions of the Project Delivery Policies and
Procedures are as follow:
Funds to be Obligated/Transferred in the Fiscal Year Programmed in the FTIP: RSTP and
CMAQ funds are to be programmed, up to the apportionment level for that fiscal year, in the
FTIP within the fiscal year in which the funds are to be obligated by FHWA or transferred to
FTA, similar to the programming of the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP.)
This will improve the overall management of federal OA within the region and improve the
likelihood that OA and SBA will be available for projects that are programmed in a particular
fiscal year.
Field Reviews: Implementing agencies are required to request a field review within 6 months
of KCOG’s approval of the project in the FTIP for federal-aid projects receiving funding
through the RSTP and CMAQ programs that are subject to AB-1012 or regional obligation
deadlines. This policy also applies to federal-aid projects in the STIP. The requirement does
not apply to projects for which a field review would not be applicable (such as FTA transfers,
regional customer service projects and planning activities). Failure for an implementing
agency to make a good-faith effort in scheduling and/or obtaining a field review from Caltrans
Local Assistance within six months of programming into the FTIP may result in the funding
being subject to reprogramming.
Complete Environmental Submittal to Caltrans 12 months prior to Obligation Deadline:
Implementing agencies are required to submit a complete environmental package to Caltrans
for all projects (except those determined Programmatic Categorical Exemption as determined
by Caltrans at the field review), twelve months prior to the obligation deadline for right of
way or construction funds. This policy creates a more realistic period for projects to progress
from the field review through the environmental and design process, to the right of way or
construction phase. If the environmental process, as determined at the field review, will take
longer than 12 months before obligation, the implementing agency is responsible for
delivering the complete environmental submittal in a timely manner. Failure to comply with
this provision could result in the funding being subject to reprogramming. The requirement
does not apply to FTA transfers, regional customer service projects or planning activities.
Obligation/Submittal Deadlines: Projects selected to receive RSTP, CMAQ and ATP funding
must demonstrate their ability to obligate programmed funds by the established obligation
deadline. Implementing agencies are responsible for delivering projects in the programming
year of the TIP based on their original year requested. The implementing agency is
responsible for meeting benchmark delivery deadlines.
Chapter 2: Implementation Procedures Overview
PROJECT DELIVERY POLICIES & PROCEDURES 2-8
Kern Council of Governments
Within KCOG-administered programs, implementing agencies may adjust programming up until
April 1
st
of the programmed year, swapping funds to a ready project in order to utilize all of the
programming capacity, subject to available OA. The substituted project(s) must still obligate the
funds within the original funding deadline.
RSTP, CMAQ and ATP funds programmed in the FTIP are subject to an obligation/FTA transfer
deadline of June 30 of the programmed fiscal year. Implementing agencies are required to submit
the complete request for obligation or FTA transfer to Caltrans Local Assistance by April 1 of the
fiscal year programmed in the FTIP, and receive an obligation/FTA transfer of the funds by June
30 the fiscal year programmed in the FTIP.
February 1 - Regional Submittal Deadline: Complete package submittals received by February 1
of the fiscal year programmed in the FTIP will receive first priority for obligations against available
OA.
February 2 - April 30: Projects submitted during this timeframe are subject to deprogramming.
If OA is still available, these projects may receive OA if obligated by April 30. If OA is limited, these
projects would compete for OA with projects advanced from the following fiscal year on a first
come-first serve basis. Projects with funds to be advanced from future years must request the
advance prior to April 30, in order to receive the funds within that federal fiscal year.
April 30 - Regional Obligation Deadline: Funds not obligated (or transferred to FTA) by April 30
of the fiscal year programmed in the FTIP will be returned to KCOG for reprogramming. No
extensions of this deadline will be granted. Projects seeking advanced obligations against funds
from future years, must request the advance prior to April 30, in order to receive the funds within
that federal fiscal year. The obligation deadline may not be extended. The funds must be
obligated by the established deadline or they will be de-programmed from the project and
redirected by KCOG to a project that can use the funds in a timely manner.
Encumbrance/Liquidation/Project Close-Out Deadlines
RSTP, CMAQ and ATP funds must be encumbered by an approved State funding agreement within
one state fiscal year after the fiscal year of obligation. Furthermore, the funds must be fully
liquidated (expended, invoiced and reimbursed), within four state fiscal years after the fiscal year
in which the funds were obligated, and the project must be accepted and closed out within five
state fiscal years after the fiscal year in which the funds were obligated. The provisions listed
below are required in order to ensure no funds are lost after obligation. Failure to meet these
requirements will result in the potential loss of funding for reimbursement of incurred project
costs.
Funds must be encumbered within one state fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the
funds were obligated (encumbrance is approval of a funding agreement with the state). This
requirement does not apply to FTA transfers.
Chapter 2: Implementation Procedures Overview
PROJECT DELIVERY POLICIES & PROCEDURES 2-9
Kern Council of Governments
Construction/Equipment Purchase contract must be awarded within six months following the
fiscal year in which the construction funds were obligated (this requirement does not apply
to FTA transfers).
Funds must be liquidated (expended, invoiced and reimbursed) within four state fiscal years
following the fiscal year in which the funds were obligated (this requirement does not apply
to FTA transfers).
Project must be accepted and closed out within six months of the last expenditure, or within
five state fiscal years following the fiscal year in which the funds were obligated, whichever
occurs first (this requirement does not apply to FTA transfers).
For FTA projects, funds must be approved/awarded in an FTA Grant within one state fiscal
year following the fiscal year in which the funds were transferred to FTA.
Funds that miss the encumbrance, liquidation/project close out deadlines are subject to de-
obligation if not re-appropriated by the State Legislature, or extended (for one year) in a
Cooperative Work Agreement (CWA) with the California Department of Finance.
Inactive Projects
Most projects can be completed well within the state’s seven-year deadline for project closeout.
Yet it is viewed negatively by both FHWA and the California Department of Finance for projects
to remain inactive for more than 12 months. It is expected that funds for completed phases will
be invoiced within a reasonable time of completion of work for the phase, and projects will be
closed out within a reasonable time following project completion. Implementing agencies that
have projects that have not been closed out within 6 months of final expenditure, or have
projects that remain inactive for more than 12 months, regardless of federal fund source, will
have future OA limited for subsequent projects, and/or have restrictions on future programming.
The intent of this regional delivery policy is to ensure implementing agencies do not lose any
funds due to missing a federal or state funding deadline, while providing maximum flexibility in
delivering transportation projects. KCOG has purposefully established regional deadlines in
advance of state deadlines, to provide the opportunity for implementing agencies, Caltrans,
other partnering agencies and KCOG to solve potential problems and bring the project back on-
line in advance of losing funding due to a missed state deadline. Although the policy is limited to
the RSTP and CMAQ funds managed by KCOG, the state deadlines sited apply to all federal-aid
funds administered by the state. Implementing agencies should pay close attention to the
deadlines of other state and federal funds on their projects so as not to miss any other applicable
funding deadlines.

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: VII.
2021 Mid-Cycle State Transportation Improvement Program
DESCRIPTION: The California Transportation Commission (CTC) has developed and anticipates the adoption the
2021 Mid-Cycle State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) in response to the Coronavirus Response and
Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 (Federal Act).
DISCUSSION: Because the next CTC meeting occurs on March 24-25, 2021 after the writing and issuance of the
March Kern COG TTAC agenda, it’s possible that this information may require revision by March 31, 2021, the date
of the TTAC meeting. The CTC anticipates the administration of the 2021 Mid-Cycle State Transportation
Improvement Program (STIP) in response to the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act
of 2021 (Federal Act). The Federal Act may distribute a draft estimate of $366,013,042 to regional agencies through
the established STIP County Share process. Kern COG’s share of COVID relief funding using the STIP distribution
is estimated at $12,827,182. The final amount may be lower depending on what version of formula distribution the
CTC approves. The assumption for this report is that the Commission may choose to distribute 100% of COVID
funding through the STIP. This process would be separate from the 2022 Regional Transportation Improvement
Program as the draft schedule below indicates.

was taken to direct new Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 funding to two
regionally significant projects including the City of Bakersfield Hageman extension / flyover project and the State
Route 58 Truck Climbing Lane project. The action was specific that approved available COVID funding would be split
50/50 between the two projects. Table A provides specific amounts for each project based on the 100% STIP
distribution option developed by the CTC. Final amounts will be indicated for the March KCOG Board meeting. If the
CTC approves a variation on the STIP methodology and County Share distribution the COVID funding Kern COG
staff will inform the TTAC of the final outcome on March 31.

Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of
2021
The California Transportation Commission (Commission) intends to develop and adopt
a 2021 Mid-Cycle State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) in response to the
Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 (Federal
Act). The following policies and procedures address the particular circumstances of the
2021 Mid-Cycle STIP.
Schedule. The following schedule lists the major milestones for the development
and adoption of the 2021 Mid-Cycle STIP:

Funding Distribution. The Commission will distribute $$$,$$$,$$$ (XX.X percent of
the Federal Act) through the 2021 Mid-Cycle STIP. The Regional Improvement
Program will receive $$$,$$$,$$$ (75 percent) and the Interregional Improvement
Program will receive $$$$,$$$,$$$ (25 percent) of the Federal Act amount directed
to the 2021 Mid-Cycle STIP.
Regional Share Targets. Regional share targets will be calculated based on the
amount identified above for the Regional Improvement Program using the STIP
share distribution formula. These will be the target shares for each region. There will
be no minimum or maximum calculated for these shares.
Over programming. Regions and the state may program these STIP share targets
even if overprogrammed in the 2020 STIP.
Planning Programming and Monitoring (PPM). PPM will be calculated based on 5
percent of the regional share targets. Regions will have the option to program PPM
up to the amount of PPM identified.
State Only Funds Exchange. Regions with a share target amount of $5 million or
less may request state only funds at the time of programming, except for the
urbanized areas with populations over 200,000 identified in the Federal Highway
Administration apportionment notice dated January 15, 2021. A project that is
required to be federalized or that has previously received federal funds is not eligible
for state-only funding. Projects programmed with state only funds are subject to
Article 19 restrictions.
Page | 2
Programming Options. Regions and the state may choose or do a combination of
the following programming options:
1. Propose New Projects – An agency may choose to program new projects up to
their total target amount. For each new project nominated for funding in the 2021
Mid-Cycle STIP, regions and Caltrans shall submit a Project Programming
Request (PPR), identifying the scope, cost, and schedule. The PPRs shall be
submitted electronically to the Commission by April 30, 2021.
2. Augment Projects - An agency may increase funding to a currently programmed
project to address project cost increases, add scope or exchange funds with local
funds. The project must be programmed in Fiscal Year 2021-22 or later.
3. Advance Projects - An agency may propose to advance projects that are
currently programmed in later years of the STIP. Approval of advancing more
than the target amount will only be possible if other regions elect to delay their
shares.
4. Delay Programming - An agency may choose to delay programming their target
shares. Their shares will be accounted for in the 2022 STIP Fund Estimate
distribution. No action is required.
Interregional Program. Caltrans may program projects that are eligible through the
State Highway Operations and Protection Program (SHOPP) in the interregional
program if timely programming through the SHOPP is not possible because of
funding limitations in the SHOPP.
STIP Guidelines. The STIP guidelines shall apply to all projects that received
Federal Act funding.

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: VIII.
2022 REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
DESCRIPTION:
Every two years in the odd-numbered year, regional transportation planning agencies are to submit a
Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) to the California Transportation Commission for
their approval in December of the same odd-numbered year.
DISCUSSION:
The California Transportation Commission (CTC) has initiated the 2022 Regional Transportation
Improvement Program (2022 RTIP) process at their January 2728, 2021 meeting to develop a statewide
2022 State Transportation Improvement Program (2022 STIP) for projects of regional significance. The
general order of this process is 1) CTC develops a statewide 5-Year regional share fund estimate; 2) CTC
updates 2022 STIP guidelines; 3) regions submit RTIP’s; and 4) the CTC consolidates RTIP’s and approves
the 2022 STIP.

The process for the region is to 1) establish new programming capacity defined by the state’s fund estimate;
2) assess current regional project needs including cost estimate updates; 3) develop a Capital Improvement
Program; and 4) regionally adopt the 2022 RTIP for submission to the CTC by December 15, 2021.
Current 2020 STIP as Adopted - Kern COG projects in the current 2020 State Transportation Improvement
Program include highway capacity projects on State Routes 14, 46 and 58. It must be noted that specific
regional actions from the 2020 RTIP cycle affect how the 2022 RTIP cycle program of project
recommendations is developed. First, because there was no new funding capacity for the 2020 RTIP cycle,
a regional decision of note was to defer $30 million from a Caltrans partnership project at State Route 58
and 99 in order to advance construction of the final phase of State Route 46 widening project near Interstate
5. Because the 58 / 99 auxiliary lane project was deferred, it was also removed from the STIP. It is the
region’s intent that RTIP funding be used to supplement other state construction funding in the State
Highway Operations Protection Program (SHOPP). It is staff’s intention to restore this programming if there
is funding capacity to do so and if Caltrans is advancing the design of the auxiliary lane.
The second important action of note taken during the 2020 RTIP cycle was to elevate the need for truck
climbing lanes on State Route 58 east of Bakersfield. It is the regions intent that this project will also
become a SHOPP project. However, the RTIP process could play a future role in advancing pre-
construction phases to develop the project. Significant coordination with Caltrans will be required for both
the auxiliary lane and truck-climbing lane projects. The third important action that the Board approved was
on State Route 14, the Freeman Gulch widening project, which came to a stand-still when Caltrans was
unable to offer its 40% of funding for these partnership projects with Inyo and Mono County. As a result,
the Kern COG Board agreed with staff that the Freeman Gulch projects for segments 2 or 3 could not
advance without the Caltrans funding partnership intact.
These projects are part of the 2020 State Transportation Improvement Program and reflected in a recent
CTC document called the 2020 Report of STIP Balances County and Interregional Shares, or, the 2020
Orange Book. This publication presents current programming for regions statewide including the status of
any allocation or other project activity. Attachment A of this report includes the report pages with Kern
activity listed. This information will be the point of beginning for establishing the proposed regional Capital
Improvement Program which will be developed over the next several months. The table below provides
construction status of projects from either the 2018 STIP, the 2020 STIP, or both.

This is a Caltrans partnership project not yet introduced to the STIP
2020 STIP fundingIt is important to recap that the adopted Fund Estimate established for the 2020 STIP
cycle did not provide new programming for the regions in the outer two years of programming. As a result,
regions were not able to advance new phases of work for projects already in progress. For Kern, the Board
approved the decision to move $30 million of existing programming from Metropolitan Bakersfield out to the
TTAC Meeting
2022 RTIP
March 31, 2021

State Route 46 widening project that was in progress and in need of final funding to secure construction.
This transfer of programming was at the core of the Kern 2020 RTIP cycle.
Update of Kern COG Project Delivery Policies and Procedures In March of 2019, the Kern COG
Board adopted the latest version of the Kern COG Project Delivery Policies and Procedures document
which included updates to Chapters 1, 2 and 3. Chapter 3 focuses on the Regional Transportation
Improvement Program process. The purpose of the update was to bring the Kern COG document to be
more in alignment with recently adopted State Transportation Improvement Program Guidelines as adopted
by the California Transportation Commission. At the heart of the update was the need to review and update
performance measure requirements in the Kern COG policy document that not only are more consistent
with the latest STIP process but more competitive for the many other discretionary transportation programs.
Once completed in March 2019, the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee advised Kern COG staff
that a new call for RTIP projects would not be initiated due to the lack of RTIP funding going forward. They
did not feel that the required effort was commensurate with the available funding. This issue will be revisited
during the 2022 RTIP cycle.

FTA 5311 Grant Programs Fact Sheet
Federal Transit Administration (FTA) apportions funds to the governors of each
State. The Department is the delegated recipient of the annual apportionment.
The Division of Rail and Mass Transportation (DRMT) is responsible for
administering the program on behalf of the Department.
CRRSAA
The Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021
(CRRSAA) supports the transit industry during the COVID-19 public health
emergency. This includes operating expenses to maintain transit services as well
as paying for administrative leave for transit personnel due to reduced
operations during an emergency. If your agency has FURLOUGHED any staff or
contracted staff, you are only eligible for operating assistance projects.
FFY 2021 FTA 5311 - Formula
The overall goal of the FTA 5311 program is to enhance the availability of public
transit in rural areas and provide public transportation opportunities to residents
in rural areas for access to employment, education and health care, shopping
and recreation.
FFY 2021 FTA Intercity Bus Program FTA 5311(f) – Competitive
The overall goal of the program is to support intercity travel needs of residents in
non-urbanized areas by providing transit connection from rural areas to larger
urban areas. Each state is required to spend 15 percent of its annual FTA Section
5311 apportionment to support the program (FTA 9040.1G, Ch.8). FFY 2021 is only
accepting operating assistance projects. (Scoring criteria are in application on
BlackCat).
FFY 2021 CMAQ – Flex Funds
The Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) Program is
administered by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). CMAQ funding is
available to reduce congestion and improve air quality for areas that do not
meet the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for ozone, carbon monoxide,
or particulate matter (nonattainment areas) and for former nonattainment
areas that are now in compliance (maintenance areas). Funds may be used for
a transportation project or program that is likely to contribute to the attainment
or maintenance of a national ambient air quality standard, with a high level of
effectiveness in reducing air pollution.
Program Funds: Program funds are made available to rural areas with a
population of less than 50,000 as designated by the Bureau of the Census
(2010).
Eligible Applicants: Public transit providers, state and local governments, rural
transportation planning agencies, private-nonprofit organizations, Tribal
Governments and private intercity bus operators (5311(f)). Must provide transit to
the general public. All subrecipients are required to be compliant with FTA
regulations.
Eligible Projects: Eligible projects include capital projects, planning and
operating assistance projects. Capital projects are funded at 88.53% and
operating assistance are funded at 55.53%. CRRSAA operating projects are
100%.
Program Fund Role Players: The FTA, local government, transit providers, MPO’s
RTPAs, DRMT, Districts, SCO, and Accounting.
The Transportation Planning Agencies (RPA) Project Selection for CARES Act:
Caltrans provides the funding amount for each region to the MPOs/RTPAs. They
then plan and sub-allocate projects based on regional transportation needs.
Regional funds need to be programed except for CRRSAA operating projects.
Once the projects are selected by the region, the transit agencies will submit
their application to Caltrans using BlackCat Electronic Grants System.
