The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), which was recently signed by the President, provides $150 million for hiring transit security officers and funding capital security projects under the Transit Security Grant Program (TSGP).
This is a one-time competitive grant. The goal is to create jobs and reduce transit risk as quickly as possible. The application process is different than the FY 2009 TSGP. There are no tiers or target allocations. Some costs are pre-approved. Click here for complete information.
The TSGP is one of five grant programs in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Infrastructure Protection Program (IPP), which is designed to strengthen the nation's critical infrastructure against risks associated with terrorism. TSGP Tier I provides funding to owners and operators of transit systems (passenger rail and intracity bus) in the highest risk transit regions in the country: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, the National Capital Region, New York, Philadelphia, and the San Francisco Bay Area.
DHS meets with a Regional Transit Security Working Group (RTSWG) in each region to establish a Cooperative Agreement that identifies projects that will have the greatest security impact based on national priorities.
FY 2007 Tier I funding totaled $227,640,463, including the Base ($141,440,463) and the Supplemental ($86,200,000).
