- Description
- NOTE: THIS IS NOT AN ACQUISITION PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE SUBJECT TO THE FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION. THIS SYNOPSIS PROVIDES NOTICE THAT THE FHWA PLANS TO ISSUE A REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS FROM STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. THIS PROGRAM WILL RESULT IN COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT AWARDS. The Safety Core Business Unit of the Federal Highway Administration is contemplating the award of multiple (approximately 2 to 4) demonstration and evaluation projects for a performance period of 28 months. A total of $775,000 in Federal funds is available in fiscal year 2003 to fund from two to four demonstration and evaluation projects for a performance period of 28 months. Individual award amounts are expected to range between $150,000 ? $300,000. Applicants must provide a minimum of a 20 percent match of the Federal funding towards the project. The applicant?s 20 percent match requirement can be met through direct financial contribution or through ?in-kind? services. This request for application (RFA) will only be released and available electronically at http://www.fedbizopps.gov. Accordingly, NO written, telephone, facsimile or e-mail requests for the RFA package will be accepted. The Government anticipates issuing a RFA package on or about May 5, 2003, by posting it on the website www.fedbizopps.gov. Estimated proposal due date is on or about June 5, 2003. Since this RFA will only be available electronically, it will be the responsibility of interested parties to monitor the FedBizOpps.gov website for both the RFA package and any amendments. The objective of these demonstration and evaluation projects is to determine the extent to which rationally established, well-publicized, and rigorously enforced speed limits lead to higher compliance and improved safety. This cooperative agreement program requires each recipient to conduct a carefully planned demonstration of setting and enforcing rational speed limits. The recipient will designate a specific demonstration community (or group of communities). A demonstration community is the geopolitical area where the rational speed limit demonstration will take place. This could be a State, a county, a city, a township, a borough, or any defined geographic entity or group of geographic entities within the United States with a clear governing body. All application forms may be found under fhwa.dot.gov/aaa/hamhome.htm. Scroll down and click on Grants/Cooperative Agreements. All questions, comments, or concerns, shall be e-mailed to Lise Lyles, Contract Specialist, at Lise.Lyles@fhwa.dot.gov.
