Letters of Interest for Credit 

Assistance Under the Transportation 

Infrastructure Finance and Innovation 

Act (TIFIA) Program 

AGENCIES: Office of the Secretary of 

Transportation (OST), U.S. Department 

of Transportation (DOT), Federal 

Highway Administration (FHWA),

Federal Transit Administration (FTA). 

ACTION: Notice of funding availability 

and request for comments. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the recently 

enacted Moving Ahead for Progress in 

the 21st Century Act (MAP–21), DOT 

announces the availability of funding 

authorized in the amount of $1.75 

billion ($750 million in Federal Fiscal 

Year (FY) 2013 funds and $1 billion in 

FY 2014 funds (and any funds that may 

be available from prior fiscal years)) to 

provide TIFIA credit assistance for 

eligible projects. The FY 2013 and FY 

2014 funds are subject to an annual 

obligation limitation that may be 

established in appropriations law. The 

amount of TIFIA budget authority 

available in a given year may be less 

than the amount authorized for that 

fiscal year. Under TIFIA, DOT provides 

secured (direct) loans, lines of credit, 

and loan guarantees to public and 

private applicants for eligible surface 

transportation projects. Projects must 

meet statutorily specified eligibility 

criteria to receive credit assistance. 

This notice outlines the process that 

project sponsors must follow in seeking 

TIFIA credit assistance. DOT is 

publishing this notice to give project 

sponsors an opportunity to submit 

Letters of Interest for the newly 

authorized funding as soon as possible. 

However, in addition to authorizing 

more funding for TIFIA credit 

assistance, MAP–21 made some 

significant changes to the TIFIA 

program’s structure, including the terms 

and conditions pursuant to which DOT 

can provide TIFIA credit assistance. 

While this notice provides guidance 

about how DOT will implement some of 

the changes made by MAP–21, it does 

not provide guidance about how DOT 

will implement all of these changes. 

Further information about the changes 

made by MAP–21 and additional DOT 

guidance for implementation of these 

provisions is provided in Part VII below. 

Also, Part VII invites interested parties 

to submit comments about DOT’s 

implementation of MAP–21 and DOT’s 

guidance for awarding TIFIA credit 

assistance. Unless otherwise noted, 

statutory section references in this 

notice are to sections of title 23 of the 

U.S. Code, as amended by MAP–21, 

which takes effect on October 1, 2012. 

Letter of Interest Submission: All 

project sponsors wishing to apply for 

TIFIA credit assistance must first submit 

a Letter of Interest, as more fully 

described in this notice of funding 

availability. Letters of Interest will be 

received on a rolling basis commencing 

on the date hereof, using the form on the 

TIFIA Web site: http:// 

www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/tifia/ 

guidance_applications/index.htm. 

Project sponsors that have previously 

submitted Letters of Interest for a prior 

fiscal year’s funding, but have not been 

asked by DOT to submit an application 

as of the date of this notice, must submit 

a new Letter of Interest to be considered 

for the funding described in this notice 

of funding availability. 

Addresses for Letters of Interest: 

Submit all Letters of Interest to the 

attention of Mr. Duane Callender via 

email at: TIFIACredit@dot.gov. 

Submitters should receive a 

confirmation email, but are advised to 

request a return receipt to confirm 

transmission. Only Letters of Interest 

received via email, as provided above, 

shall be deemed properly filed.
