  1. National Capital Region Transportation Planning Board Briefing on the Draft Call for Projects and Schedule for the Air Quality Conformity Assessment for the 2011 CLRP and FY 2012-2017 TIP Technical Committee Item # 5 October 1, 2010

  4. Current TIP Cycle • Our 6 year TIP is produced every year • Federal law requires TIP to be updated every 4 years • TIP and STIP approval for all projects are tied to Conformity Assessment, often months behind most DOT’s fiscal cycles • Printed hard copies printed and PDF versions posted to the web quickly become out of date as amendments and modifications are made • The TIP is changing from a planning program to a real-time budgetary, cash-flow document

  5. Proposed New TIP Cycle • Projects that have Air Quality Conformity impacts will follow the schedule shown earlier and be amended to the FY 11-16 TIP following approval • Formally update TIP every two years • FY 2011-2016 TIP would remain TIP of record until the approval of the FY 2013-2018 TIP in the Fall of 2012 • Projects that are exempt from the Conformity requirements can be amended at any time • Searchable, online TIP database updated following each amendment or modification

  6. Proposed New TIP Cycle • TIP and STIP amendments can be approved according to each of the three DOTs’ cycles without waiting for Conformity Assessment • Reduces amount of time spent “between TIPs” – after TPB approval and before federal STIP approval

  7. Documentation of the TIP • Printed hard copies of the FY 2011-2016 TIP • Online searchable database with the most up-to-date version of the TIP • Brochure on 2010 CLRP and FY 2011-2016 TIP • Brochure on 2011 CLRP with updated TIP info

  8. Next Steps • TPB will be briefed on the Draft Call for Projects document on October 19 • TPB will be asked to approve the Call for Projects document on November 16
