COMMITMENT.—In 
evaluating a proposed project under paragraph 
(2)(C), the Secretary shall require that—
‘‘(i) the proposed project plan provides 
for the availability of contingency amounts 
that the Secretary determines to be reason-
able to cover unanticipated cost increases; 
‘‘(ii) each proposed local source of cap-
ital and operating financing is stable, reli-
able, and available within the proposed 
project timetable; and 
‘‘(iii) local resources are available to 
operate the overall proposed public trans-
portation system (including essential feeder
429
bus and other services necessary to achieve 
the projected ridership levels) without re-
quiring a reduction in existing public 
transportation services to operate the pro-
posed project. 
‘‘(D) ASSESSMENT OF LOCAL FINANCING.—
In assessing the stability, reliability, and avail-
ability of proposed sources of local financing 
under paragraph (2)(C), the Secretary shall con-
sider—
‘‘(i) existing grant commitments; 
‘‘(ii) the degree to which financing 
sources are dedicated to the purposes pro-
posed; 
‘‘(iii) any debt obligation that exists or 
is proposed by the recipient for the proposed 
project or other public transportation pur-
pose; and 
‘‘(iv) the extent to which the project 
has a local financial commitment that ex-
ceeds the required non-Federal share of the 
cost of the project. 
‘‘(4) EVALUATION AND RATING OF PROJECTS.—
A proposed project under this subsection may advance 
from alternatives analysis to preliminary engineer-
430
ing, and may advance from preliminary engineering 
to final design and construction, only if the Secretary 
finds that the project meets the requirements of this 
section and there is a reasonable likelihood that the 
project will continue to meet such requirements. In 
making the findings, the Secretary shall evaluate and 
rate the project as ‘highly recommended’, ‘rec-
ommended’, or ‘not recommended’ based on the results 
of alternatives analysis, the project justification cri-
teria, and the degree of local financial commitment, 
as required under this subsection. In rating the 
projects, the Secretary shall provide, in addition to 
the overall project rating, individual ratings for each 
of the criteria established by regulation. 
‘‘(5) MAJOR DEFINED.—In this section, the term 
‘major’, as used with respect to a new fixed guideway 
capital project, means the Federal assistance provided 
or to be provided under this section for the project is 
$75,000,000 or more.

making the finding under paragraph (2)(B), the Sec-
retary shall—

432
and is likely to achieve local developmental 
goals; 
‘‘(B) determine the cost effectiveness of the 
project at the time of the initiation of revenue 
service; 
‘‘(C) determine the degree to which the 
project will have a positive effect on local eco-
nomic development;
