DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Research and Innovative Technology 

Administration 

University Transportation Centers 

(UTC) Program Grants (49 U.S.C. 

5506); Suspension of Competitions 

AGENCY: Research and Innovative 

Technology Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Transportation is providing notice that 

it intends to suspend competitions for 

its University Transportation Centers 

(UTC) Program grants (49 USC 5506) 

pending the enactment of multi-year, 

surface transportation authorization 

legislation that is necessary to define the 

purpose, eligibility, number, and 

funding amounts of any future grants. 

DATES: Dates for future UTC 

competitions are not known at this time. 

As more information is available about 

future grant competitions, it will be 

posted on the UTC Program’s Web site, 

http://utc.dot.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. 

Curtis Tompkins, University 

Transportation Centers Program, Office 

of Research, Development and 

Technology, RDT–30, Research and 

Innovative Technology Administration,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, 

Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A 

Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU, Pub. L. 

109–59, as amended by Pub. L. 110– 

244) requires the Research and 

Innovative Technology Administration 

(RITA) of the U.S. Department of 

Transportation (U.S. DOT) to complete 

competitions for Regional UTCs by 

March 31, 2010, and for Tier I UTCs by 

June 30, 2010. Because there is no 

surface transportation authorization 

legislation or other authorizing vehicle 

yet in place to state the structure and 

funding of the UTC Program beyond 

Federal Fiscal Year 2009, and because of 

the burden that would be placed on 

applicants to pursue a competition 

process that has a high likelihood of 

being voided should a multi-year, 

surface transportation authorization 

substantially change the terms and 

conditions of the UTC Program and 

grants to be issued under that program, 

the Research and Innovative Technology 

Administration is suspending these 

competitions until such time as a multiyear surface transportation 

authorization has been enacted. 

Issued in Washington, DC, on December 

18, 2009. 

Peter H. Appel, 

Administrator.
