transportation, community, and system 

preservation plans and practices that: 

• Improve the efficiency of the 

transportation system of the United 

States. 

• Reduce environmental impacts of 

transportation. 

• Reduce the need for costly future 

public infrastructure investments. 

• Ensure efficient access to jobs, 

services, and centers of trade. 

• Examine community development 

patterns and identify strategies to 

encourage private sector development 

patterns and investments that support 

these goals. 

The 2-page TCSP grant application is 

the tool used to collect the necessary 

information needed to successfully 

submit eligible TCSP Program projects 

to the Secretary of Transportation for 

approval and for the distribution of the 

funds to the States. The TCSP grant 

application includes three parts: A) 

Project Information—General contact 

and funding information, B) Project 

Abstract—Overview of the purpose and 

intent of project, and C) Project 

Narrative—Description of the project 

and the expected results. 

The TCSP Program is a discretionary 

program. However, beginning in FY 

2000, the projects awarded TCSP 

Program funding have been designated 

by Congress. In order to comply with 

Congressional-designation, the Federal 

Highway Administration (FHWA) 

Division offices will continue to be 

asked to identify the intended recipient 

of the TCSP designated grant. The 

specified grant recipient would then be 

asked to complete the grant application 

each fiscal year that they receive TCSP 

funding. The participants will have a 

choice of providing their information by 

means of the Internet or a printed 

application. 

Transportation Planning Excellence 

Awards Nomination Form: The 

Transportation Planning Excellence 

Awards (TPEA) program is a biennial 

awards program developed by the 

FHWA and the Federal Transit 

Administration (FTA) to recognize 

outstanding initiatives across the 

country to develop, plan, and 

implement innovative transportation 

planning practices. The program is cosponsored by the American Planning 

Association. 

The on-line TPEA nomination form is 

the tool for submitters to nominate a 

process, group, or individual involved 

in a project or process that has used the 

FHWA and/or the FTA funding sources 

to make an outstanding contribution to 

the field of transportation planning. The 

information about the process, group, or 

individual provided by the submitter 

may be shared and published if that 

submission is selected for an award. 

The TPEA is a biennial awards 

program and individuals will be asked 

to submit nominations via the online 

form every two years. The participants 

will provide their information by means 

of the Internet. 

Respondents: For the TCSP Program, 

States, metropolitan planning 

organizations, local governments, and 

tribal governments may apply in which 

approximately 100 participants have 

responded annually. For the TPEA, 150 

participants are expected to apply in the 

first and third year, because it is a 

biennial program. 

Frequency: For the TCSP Program, 

grant applications are solicited on an 

annual basis. For the TPEA, 

nominations are solicited biennially. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: For the TCSP Program, 90 

minutes. For the TPEA Program, 

approximately 60 minutes. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: For the TCSP Program, 150 hours 

annually. For the TPEA, 150 hours in 

the first year and 150 hours in the third 

year.
