Abstract of proposed collection: The 

U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for 

AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) was established 

through enactment of the United States 

Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, 

Tuberculosis, and Malaria Act of 2003 

(Pub. L. 108–25), as amended by the 

Tom Lantos and Henry J. Hyde United 

States Global Leadership Against HIV/ 

AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria 

Reauthorization Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 

110–293) (HIV/AIDS Leadership Act) to 

support the global response to HIV/ 

AIDS. In order to improve program 

monitoring, the interagency Finance and 

Economics Work Group supporting 

PEPFAR has added reporting of 

expenditures by program area to the 

current routine reporting of program 

results for the annual report. Data are 

collected from implementing partners in 

countries with PEPFAR programs using 

a standard tool (DS–4213) via an 

electronic web-based interface into 

which users directly input data. These 

data are analyzed to produce mean and 

range in expenditures by partner per 

result/achievement for all PEPFAR 

program areas. These analyses then feed 

into partner and program reviews at the 

country level for monitoring and 

evaluation on an ongoing basis. 

Summaries of these data provide key 

information about program costs under 

PEPFAR on a global level. Applying 

expenditure results will improve 

strategic budgeting, identification of 

efficient means of delivering services, 

accuracy in defining program targets, 

and will inform allocation of resources 

to ensure the program is accountable 

and using public funds for maximum 

impact. 

Methodology: Data will be collected in 

a web-based interface available to all 

partners receiving funds under PEPFAR. 

To minimize the respondents’ reporting 

burden and need for information 

technology investment, a new module 

capturing expenditure data was added 

to an already functional system. System 

upgrades now allow collection of the 

same information but no longer require 

uploading and downloading of 

spreadsheet templates. This approach 

has minimized U.S. government start up 

costs for the technology and will make 

the data collection processes more 

efficient.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Railroad Administration 

Environmental Impact Statement for 

the All Aboard Florida Miami—Orlando 

Passenger Rail Project 

AGENCY: Federal Railroad 

Administration (FRA), Department of 

Transportation. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). 

SUMMARY: FRA is issuing this notice to 

advise the public that FRA will prepare 

an Environmental Impact Statement 

(EIS) to evaluate the potential 

environmental and related impacts of 

constructing and operating an intercity 

passenger rail service proposed by the 

private company, All Aboard Florida— 

Operations LLC (AAF), between Miami 

and Orlando, Florida, with intermediate 

stops in Fort Lauderdale and West Palm 

Beach, Florida (Proposed Action). FRA 

will evaluate alternatives for 

construction and operation of the 

Proposed Action, which would include 

infrastructure improvements to existing 

rail corridor right-of-way between 

Miami and Cocoa, and the development 

of a new rail corridor between Cocoa 

and Orlando. FRA will also evaluate a 

No Action (No Build) Alternative. FRA 

is issuing this notice to solicit public 

and agency input into the development 

of the scope of the EIS and to advise the 

public that outreach activities 

conducted by FRA, AAF and its 

representatives will be considered in the 

preparation of the EIS. To ensure all 

significant issues are identified and 

considered, the public is invited to 

comment on the scope of the EIS, 

including the purpose and need, 

alternatives to be considered, impacts to 

be evaluated, and methodologies to be 

used in the evaluation. 

DATES: FRA invites the public, 

governmental agencies, and all other 

interested parties to comment on the 

scope of the EIS. All such comments 

should be provided to FRA, in writing, 

within thirty (30) days of the 

publication of this notice, at the address 

listed below. Comments may also be 

provided orally or in writing at the 

scoping meetings for the Project. 

Scoping meeting dates, times and 

locations, in addition to related Project 

information can be found online at 

www.allaboardflorida.com or 

www.fra.dot.gov. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments on the 

scope of the EIS may be mailed or 

emailed within thirty (30) days of the 

publication of this notice to Catherine 

Dobbs, Transportation Industry Analyst, 

Office of Railroad Policy and 

Development, Federal Railroad 

Administration, 1200 New Jersey 

Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590, or 

catherine.dobbs@dot.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ali 

Soule, Public Affairs Manager, All 

Aboard Florida—Operations LLC, 2855 

LeJeune Road, 4th Floor, Coral Gables, 

FL 33134, eis@allaboardflorida.com, or

Industry Analyst, Office of Railroad 

Policy and Development, Federal 

Railroad Administration, 1200 New 

Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC

Information and documents regarding 

the EIS process will also be made 

available through the FRA Web site at 

www.fra.dot.gov and the AAF Web site 

at www.allaboardflorida.com. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FRA is 

preparing an EIS for a 235-mile intercity 

passenger railroad system proposed by 

AAF that will connect Orlando and 

Miami, Florida, with intermediate stops 

in Fort Lauderdale and West Palm 

Beach, Florida (Project). The proposed 

Project is composed of two connected 

corridors: (1) A north-south corridor of 

approximately 195 miles from Miami to 

Cocoa within an existing rail right-ofway, and (2) an east-west corridor of 

approximately 40 miles from Cocoa to 

the Orlando International Airport 

(MCO). The EIS will evaluate the 

potential environmental and related 

impacts of constructing and operating 

the Project within these corridors in 

Florida. 

Environmental Review Process 

The EIS will be developed in 

accordance with the Council on 

Environmental Quality (CEQ) 

regulations (40 CFR part 1500 et. seq.) 

implementing the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 

U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) (NEPA) and FRA’s 

Procedures for Considering 

Environmental Impacts (64 FR 28545, 

May 26, 1999). In addition to NEPA, the 

EIS will address other applicable 

statutes, regulations and executive 

orders, including the 1980 Clean Air Act 

Amendments, Section 404 of the Clean 

Water Act, the National Historic 

Preservation Act, Section 4(f) of the 

Department of Transportation Act, the 

Endangered Species Act and Executive 

Order 12898 on Environmental Justice. 

The EIS will consider alternatives that 

could include the use of, or access over, 

an interstate right-of-way and thus may 

involve the Federal Highway 

Administration. The Project’s new 

corridor from Cocoa to MCO may 

involve alteration and fill of waters of 

the United States and thus the EIS 

process will involve the US Army Corps 

of Engineers, which is expected to serve 

as a cooperating agency. The Project is 

proposed to terminate at MCO, the 

Orlando International Airport, and thus 

may require review pursuant to the 

applicable requirements of the Federal 

Aviation Administration. The purpose 

of the EIS will be to provide the FRA, 

reviewing and cooperating agencies, and 

the public with information to assess 

alternatives that will meet the Project’s 

purpose and need; to evaluate the 

potential environmental impacts; and to 

identify potential avoidance/mitigation 

measures, associated with the proposed 

Project alternatives. 

Project Background 

Florida has historically experienced 

major population, employment, and 

tourism growth, which is expected to 

continue in the coming decades. 

Florida’s travelers are subject to chronic 

congestion and delays due to inadequate 

roadway capacity. The limited capacity 

results in higher road maintenance 

costs, increased fuel consumption, 

greater emissions and increased traffic 

incidents stemming from the high traffic 

volume. Significant roadway expansion 

along the I–95 corridor would be 

expected to cause a large number of 

displacements and other substantial 

environmental impacts while failing to 

provide an alternative to automobile 

travel. 

As an alternative to additional 

highway development, this Project 

would help meet the existing need and 

demand for safe, convenient, and 

reliable transportation through the 

development of a privately-owned, 

operated and maintained intercity 

passenger rail service between four 

stations in Orlando, West Palm Beach, 

Fort Lauderdale, and Miami. 

Development of passenger rail will also 

support economic development by 

generating new revenue and creating
