Please make sure to keep the two funds separate in the “request for authorization” form that is submitted to Caltrans Local Assistance.

This item is for information only.

X. 2020 REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM

Mr. Stramaglia provided the following staff report to the TTAC:

Early this year, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) initiated the 2020 Regional Transportation Improvement Program (2020 RTIP) cycle to develop a statewide 2020 State Transportation Improvement Program (2020 STIP) for regional projects. Each regional transportation improvement program submittal to the CTC is considered an RTIP. Once approved collectively statewide by the CTC, the RTIP’s become the 2020 STIP. The adopted CTC 2020 RTIP Fund Estimate of regional and Caltrans share estimates for new programming, is zero.

The Final Draft 2020 RTIP Capital Improvement Program shown in Attachment A reflects the revised Capital Improvement Program shared with the Board of Directors at their October 17, 2019 meeting. Kern COG staff is now requesting that the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee recommend approval of the Final 2020 RTIP Capital Improvement Program to the Transportation Planning Policy Committee at the November 21, 2019 Board of Directors meeting. Once approved by the Board, Kern COG staff will submit a final 2020 RTIP report to the California Transportation Commission by December 15.

The action was for the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee recommend adoption of the 2020 RTIP Capital Improvement Program to the Transportation Planning Policy Committee as shown in Attachment “A” of Mr. Stramaglia’s report.

Mr. Lower made a motion to recommend adoption of the 2020 RTIP Capital Improvement Program to the TPPC. Mr. Patteson seconded the motion. Motion carried.

XI. CALTRANS CALL FOR LOCAL ROAD SAFETY PLAN (LRSP) GRANTS

Caltrans will continue to accept applications as long as the funding is available. More information may be found at: https://dot.ca.gov/programs/local-assistance/fed-and-state- programs/highway-safety-improvement-program/local-roadway-safety-plans.

This item was for information only.

XII. FEDERAL TRANSPORTATION AIR QUALITY CONFORMITY LAPSE MAY DELAY PROJECTS IN KERN

In September the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) took two actions that will likely result in extended delays to delivering capacity increasing transportation projects statewide.

EPA Action 1

On September 30, 2019, California Council of Governments Association (CALCOG) issued a summary (Attachment 1) of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the federal register final titled, “The Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule Part One: One National Program” (53 pages). The action withdraws the EPA 2013 Clean Air Act waiver allowing California to set their own vehicle emission standards. The rule will likely result in a federal air quality conformity lapse effective November 26, 2019 and may last a minimum of 6 months. The lapse would be triggered by a need to change the air quality modeling assumptions that assume California’s cleaner vehicle emission standards.

Under a lapse, transportation capacity increasing projects are not allowed to be advanced to the next phase until the conformity lapse is corrected. This will likely delay federally funded capacity projects in the project delivery process from advancing from environmental/design to right of way, or to construction phases. Funding for phased construction projects currently underway such as the Centennial Corridor would not be affected. The following projects may be delayed:

Kern Projects that may be Delayed SR 46 IN AND NEAR LOST HILLS: WIDEN FROM TWO TO FOUR LANES (SEGMENT 4B) - $31,900,000 SR 14 NEAR RIDGECREST: CONVERT 2-LANE CONVENTIONAL HWY TO 4-LANE EXPRESSWAY

Additional projects could be delayed if the lapse is not resolved in 6 months. ARB has already filed a lawsuit related to this action.

EPA Action 2

On September 23, 2019, EPA issued a letter (Attachment 2) to the California Air Resources Board that requests the withdraw up to 130 backlogged and un-approvable federal air quality State Implementation Plans (SIPs) and requests ARB work with EPA to develop complete and approvable SIPs. The EPA states that if it must disapprove a SIP, that triggers the following statutory sanction clocks for:

• Highway funding sanctions, which could result in prohibition of federal transportation projects and grants in certain parts of California o New Source Review permitting sanctions; and o A deadline for issuance of a Federal Implementation Plan where the federal government directs spending in a region’s Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) to meet national air quality standards. The process may take several years and would likely re-direct funding for capacity projects to air quality improvement measures such as transit and shoulder paving.

4

No timeline was given to ARB on when they might disapprove some or all of the 130 SIPs. ARB issued a 9-page response letter to EPA (attachment 3).

Timeline

• October 10, 2019 – ARB and CalCOG provided an update on the impacts SAFE Rule to a joint ARB/CTC meeting in Modesto, and Kern COG and Valley MPOs presented an update Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) Implementation at that same meeting. View webcast recording online at: https://catc.ca.gov/meetings-events/joint-carb-meetings . Times: - 0:15-0:52 – ARB presentation/panel on SAFE Rule - 2:34-3:30 – Kern COG and Valley MPOs presentation (more Q&A in afternoon session) • November 26, 2019 – Kern COG may enter a federal conformity lapse due to revocation of SAFE rule by EPA. • Spring 2020 – First projects could be delayed in Kern. Kern COG staff is working with member agencies to avoid the need for amendments that could trigger a delay.

This item was for information only.

XIII. RIDGECREST WESTSIDE DOWNS ST PROJECT DELIVERY

The City of Ridgecrest Westside Downs St. project did not receive authorization for federal funding in fiscal year 18/19. Unfortunately Kern COG staff did not find options for Ridgecrest to deliver the Westside Downs project in FY 19/20. Kern COG staff seeks TTAC discussion and direction if this staff report should be forwarded to the Transportation Planning Policy Committee. There are already projects programmed for the entirety of the funding available in FY 19/20. If option 2 or 3 is accepted by the TTAC, this will in effect reduce RSTP available to all who have not received funding approval in FY 19/20. The RSTP call for projects applications are under review. If option 4 is accepted, this will in effect reduce RSTP for projects scheduled for FY 20/21 and/or FY 21/22.

Bard Lower, Public Works Director for the City of Ridgecrest, will provide a project status report.

The action requested is that the TTAC discuss this item and provide direction.

XIV. MEMBER ITEMS – At the last meeting the topic of when the next meeting would be held due to the holidays and some committee members unavailability on January 2, 2020. Becky Napier sent out a survey and the majority were available for the date of December 4, 2019. As opposed to being dark on that date, the TTAC meeting will not be dark as stated on the meeting schedule.

XIV. ADJOURNMENT – The meeting adjourned at 11:25. There will not be a meeting on December 4, 2019 (dark). The next meeting will be on February 5, 2020.

TO: Transportation Technical Advisory Committee

FROM: Ahron Hakimi, Executive Director

By: Ed Flickinger, Regional Planner

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: IV FEDERAL SAFETY PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT (PM1) “TOWARD ZERO” 2020 TARGET UPDATE

DESCRIPTION:

Required federal process to annually monitor transportation safety performance measure progress, including encouragement of member agencies to improve safety on our streets with their transportation expenditures.

DISCUSSION:

Background - On February 15, 2018, the Kern COG Transportation Planning Policy Committee approved their first federal “Toward Zero” deaths and accidents safety targets using the federal recommended methodology that employs a 5-year running average, consistent with the methodology recommend by Caltrans Division of Traffic Operations staff at that time.

On August 24, 2018 Caltrans management changed the state methodology using a more aspirational method that uses a fixed target dubbed “Vision Zero” where the target assumes a steady decline to zero accidents using set percentages per year. The state method is soon to be made available on line at: https://dot.ca.gov/programs/traffic-operations/shsp/target.

Kern COG staff is recommending continued use of the 2018 “Toward Zero” target method adopted by Kern COG in 2018 which is consistent with the federal rule methodology but different than the current state method. Maintaining the same method allows for better comparability with prior targets with minimal consequences.

Consequences of not meeting the targets – Consequences of roadway accidents can be catastrophic to those who are involved. Everyone agrees that all appropriate countermeasures to reduce accidents should be taken. In addition, minor regulatory and funding consequences exist if the federal targets are not achieved. However, consequences of not adopting, monitoring, and encouraging progress toward the target, in accordance with federal rules, can ultimately result in loss of all federal transportation funding to the region though de-certification of the agency.

1

Under the requirements of the recent federal transportation spending bills, states and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) like Kern COG are required to annually monitor safety performance measure progress through the statewide and metropolitan planning process. Failure to meet safety targets set by the state and/or MPO could result in the minor consequence of redistribution of Caltrans Active Transportation Program (ATP) funding at the state level into the federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). Many of the projects in the ATP program improve safety for bike and pedestrians, and would likely still be eligible under HSIP.

The Federal Highways Administration (FHWA) will review how MPOs are working to achieve their targets, in accordance with the federal rules, as they conduct MPO Certification Reviews every 4 years. Failure to adequately address target performance measure requirements could eventually result in loss of the MPO’s federal certification along with access to federal transportation funds. The 2018 Kern COG federal target compliance documentation is available here ( http://www.kerncog.org/federal-performance-measures/ ) and was accepted at the federal certification review.

Rules and guidance for federal performance measure targets are still being established by FHWA (see https://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/hsip/spm/policy_and_guidance.cfm ). A couple of workshops have been given by Caltrans over the past 2 years and a draft statewide target has been submitted to FHWA (see https://dot.ca.gov/programs/traffic-operations/shsp/target ). MPOs that do not submit a safety target update by February 27, 2020, will be required to adhere to the 2020 state target which is NOT consistent with the methodology proposed by Kern COG staff.

The “Toward Zero” methodology - The attached presentation demonstrates the Kern COG “Toward Zero” methodology which is consistent with the original 2018 state safety target methodology originally recommended by Caltrans Division of Traffic Operations engineers. In addition, the Kern methodology was prepared under the supervision of a certified engineer. The methodology uses California Highway Patrol (CHP) historical accident data for Kern County. The data is extrapolated using a 5 year running average to forecast future accidents and fatalities. In addition, we use travel model data to tie the forecast to local assumed growth. Targets are essentially being set to show improvement over the previous 5 year accident data. As accidents improve, the targets will improve automatically with each annual update on a trajectory “Toward Zero.”

Countywide monitoring results summary

2012-2018 7-Year Change in 5-Year Running Average Accident Rates 1% decrease in vehicle related fatality rates from 1.62 to 1.6 per 100M miles traveled. 7% increase in vehicle related serious injury rates from 3.61 to 3.86 per 100M miles traveled. 32% increase in combined bike and pedestrian related injury/fatality rates from .000082 to .000108 per 1000 population.

2017-2018 1-Year Change in Annual Accident Rates 30% decrease in vehicle related fatality rates from 2 to 1.54 per 100M miles traveled. 33% increase vehicle related serious injury rates from 3.77 to 5 per 100M miles traveled. No Change in combined bike and pedestrian related injury/fatality rates from .000011 to .000011 per 1000 population.

Source: 2009-2018 CHP SWITRS data which only contains accidents reported to the CHP.

Longer term historic trends show that vehicle accidents track with economic fluctuations. In Kern, recent temporary rebound in oil prices are resulted in an increase in both the economy and roadway accidents. The recent drop in bike and pedestrian accidents in the last year of the data may be in part due to extensive investment in safer bike and pedestrian facilities identified in recent bike/complete street plans adopted for the region back 2012, as well as the 2017 Active 2

Transportation Plan.

What your agency can do to accelerate attainment of the federal safety targets - Kern COG’s member agencies are encouraged to promote projects and policies that will help the region to perform better than the targets proposed for our region. The Caltrans Strategic Highway Safety Plan proposes four countermeasures to improve safety: engineering, education, enforcement and emergency services. Projects such as countdown pedestrian signals, buffered bike lanes, roundabouts, and establishing extra safety corridor patrols where spikes in accident activity occur, should be considered wherever appropriate. Since 2007 the Kern Region has seen over $20M invested in the HSIP program alone (see Attachment 2). In addition, state and federal programs as well as Kern COG’s project delivery policies give extra points for projects that improve safety, including:

• Highway Safety and Improvement Program (HSIP) – local & state road safety projects • State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP) – state highway safety projects • Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) – local road maintenance & safety projects • Active Transportation Program (ATP) – (58%-78% pts. for safety & need depending on size) • Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) – (50% of points safety/congestion) • Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) – (40% of points for safety/congestion) • Kern Motorist Aid Authority (KMAA) – Travel info., safety roadside cleanup, safety corridors

Zero fatalities on our streets is everyone’s goal and it is anticipated that emerging safety technology standards such as autonomous vehicles will eventually help drive down these safety targets “Toward Zero.” This report will be updated annually.

Attachment

1) Presentation – Towards Zero: Draft Safety Performance Target Update - Kern Region 2) Kern HSIP Projects 2007-2018

ACTION:

Recommend that the Transportation Planning Policy Committee approve the 2020 Kern “Toward Zero” safety targets consistent with federal methodology and direct staff to work with member agencies and stakeholders to develop projects that will accelerate attainment of the targets.

FEDERAL Requirements: MPOs Evaluated During 4-Year Review

• Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) will be held accountable for safety progress through the statewide and metropolitan planning process. FHWA will review how MPOs are addressing and achieving their targets (or assisting the State in achieving targets) as they conduct Transportation Management Area (TMA) 4-year Certification Reviews (only for large MPOs with more than 200,000 population). The TMA Certification Review requires the Secretary to certify whether the metropolitan planning process of an MPO serving as a TMA meets requirements, including the requirements of 23 USC 134 and other applicable Federal law.

All Kern COG member agencies, be watching for the statewide biennial local streets and roads survey scheduled to be emailed out in early February 2020 to be used to help direct road maintenance funding to local jurisdictions.

DISCUSSION:

Since 2008 the biennial Statewide Local Streets and Roads survey has been sent out by the Save California Streets Coalition. Save California Streets is comprised of several organizations including the California League of Cities. More information can be found on http://www.savecaliforniastreets.org along with the 2018 report. The survey will be sent by email to TTAC members and public works personnel. A consultant will send a login and password to complete the survey online. Some of the information requested will be: • Pavement condition data • Safety, traffic & regulatory data (e.g. storm drains, ramps etc.) • Funding/expenditure projections

Full participation in this survey is needed. Please have the appropriate personnel in your jurisdiction complete it. Failure to participate may affect SB1 road maintenance funding for your community. The deadline for completing the survey is anticipated to be in mid- April 2020. (An email was sent to TTAC members about this on December 16, 2019.)

Also for jurisdictions with NHS roads, a separate yet brief pavement condition survey is expected to be sent out for federally mandated Performance Measures 2 (PM2) in March 2020.

ATTACHMENT: Draft Survey Form is attached (similar to the 2018 survey. Do not use

TO: Transportation Technical Advisory Committee

FROM: Ahron Hakimi Executive Director

By: Linda Urata Regional Planner

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: IX KERN ADVANCED TRANSPORTATION TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM - STATUS REPORT

DESCRIPTION: To help meet more stringent air standards, Kern COG promotes early deployment of alternative fuel vehicle technologies such as plug-in electric vehicles (EVs) and compressed natural gas-fueled vehicles. This report provides staff activity information, updates the quarterly inventory of EV charging spaces in Kern County, and provides funding information.

DISCUSSION:

MioCar: Kern COG staff members attended a quarterly meeting via conference call on Jan. 22, 2020.

CALeVIP: The California Energy Commission launched the CALeVIP program in the San Joaquin Valley on December 11, 2019. Funding identified for the counties of Kern, Fresno, and San Joaquin have been combined into one $14 million fund for zero emission vehicle charging infrastructure, with $5.25 million available in Kern County funds split evenly between DC Fast Chargers and Level 2 Chargers. As of this staff report, $181,000 remains available in Kern County for Level 2 charging stations. www.calevip.org

This funding may be combined with Valley Air District ChargeUP! Funding. www.valleyair.org.

The CALeVIP system experienced technical difficulties on the day of the launch. While these are being resolved, applications are still being processed and funds have not been reserved to specific projects. To provide a snapshot of the applications submitted to CALeVIP, Kern COG received this update from Robb Lichtman with ChargePoint who partnered with TurnKey Solutions on this effort, which built on the Kern COG Kern EV Charging Station Blueprint published in June 2019.

“The numbers listed below are conservative and represent quantities that we expect to successfully deploy (actual application quantities are higher), pending funding awards.

Total Number of Level 2 Ports = 200+ Total Number of DC Fast Ports = 9 Total Number of Sites installing stations = 50+ Average Number of Ports per Site = 4 We have applications for sites in the following cities and communities: Arvin, Bakersfield, Buttonwillow, Delano, Lost Hills, McFarland, North Edwards, Ridgecrest, Shafter, Taft and Wasco.

Also, while we cast a wide net, reaching out to lots of prospects throughout Kern county, we know we did not reach everyone. Our pipeline accounts for approximately 33% of the Level 2 CALeVIP applications.

We are proud of our efforts thus far, but we know there is a lot of work needed to bring these projects to completion.”

Eastern Kern Air Pollution Control District DMV Grant Program Request for Proposals: The District is now accepting applications for their 2020 DMV Grant Program, which provides up to $50,000 for eligible projects. Applications are due February 28, 2020. Visit www.kernair.org for application guidelines and forms.

California VW Mitigation Trust: The California Air Resources Board and the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District have launched the following Volkswagen Appendix D Mitigation funded program.

• Zero-Emission Transit, School and Shuttle Buses will spend $130 million over two cycles, with $65 million available starting in December 2019. 50% of the funding must be spent in Disadvantaged Communities. The school bus portion of the funding is oversubscribed. Transit and shuttle bus funding remains. www.vwbusmoney.valleyair.org

San Joaquin Valley Electric Vehicle Partnership: Forty-two people attended the site tour at Wasco Union Elementary School District to hear about and to see the solar covered parking and charging stations on January 14, 2020.

SAVE THE DATE! Kern Council of Governments will host the 2020 TRANSITions Transit Symposium on February 27, 2020 at Hodel’s Country Dining in Bakersfield.

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: X 2022 REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN - CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT UPDATE

DESCRIPTION:

Development of the Kern Council of Governments 2022 Regional Transportation Plan requires the review and update of the Capital Improvement Program Element.

DISCUSSION:

The Kern Council of Governments is in the beginning stages of developing the 2022 Regional Transportation Plan (2022 RTP). The 24-year planning horizon is tentatively set for 2022 through 2046. The action element for the Plan includes a multi-modal transportation project listing, or Capital Improvement Program developed in two parts: the financially constrained list (Table 5.1) and the financially unconstrained list (Table 5.2). The multi-modal Table 5.1 Capital Improvement Program is more restrictive because these projects are financially constrained for purposes of the 2022 RTP and must be identified in the Air Quality Conformity document for any type of proposed road capacity work. Improvements in Table 5.2 are not part of conformity analysis because they are not financially constrained.

The Capital Improvement Program was sent through the TTAC last September and October to request updates from member agency staff. Kern COG staff has now completed the draft update based on comments received in November and December. Staff is now circulating the information one more time. Final comments should be sent to Kern COG staff no later than February 21, 2020, or sooner if possible. We will request approval by the Kern COG Board of Directors at the March 19, 2020 meeting to move forward and begin updating the air quality conformity model.

TO: Transportation Technical Advisory Committee

FROM: AHRON HAKIMI, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

By: Raquel Pacheco, Regional Planner Rochelle Invina, Regional Planner

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: XI CONGESTION MITIGATION AIR QUALITY (CMAQ) – FINAL PROGRAM OF PROJECTS

DESCRIPTION:

Kern COG staff developed a Draft CMAQ Program of Projects that was circulated to the TTAC via email December 26, 2019 and presented to the Transportation Planning Policy Committee on January 16, 2020.

DISCUSSION:

Timeline The next task in the CMAQ call for projects process is to request approval of the final program of projects as shown below:

CMAQ Call for Projects Timeline

Date Task December 2019 Circulate Draft Program of Projects to TTAC January 2020 Present Draft Program of Projects to TPPC February 2020 Approve Final Program of Projects and introduction into FTIP

Kern COG staff and TTAC members conducted a thorough peer review process. No changes have been made to the Draft CMAQ Program of Projects. A Final Program will be presented for approval at the February 20, 2020 Kern COG Board meeting. The approved CMAQ Program of Projects will then be incorporated into an amendment to the 2019 Federal Transportation Improvement Program to allow projects to advance to fiscal year 19/20.

Final CMAQ Program of Projects CMAQ Program of Projects includes “Summary of Programming by Category” that provides an overview of available funding for each programming year and the total amount of proposed programming that was identified for each CMAQ category (see Attachment). Target amounts by category were approved by the Kern COG Board at their March 2019 meeting. Kern COG staff proposes the Final CMAQ Program of Projects for the following reasons:

• Distribution of at least 20% of funding to projects that meet $45/lb. cost effectiveness threshold; • Inclusion of signal synchronization and multi-use path projects to meet Kern region’s Sustainable Communities Strategy goals;

Page 2 Final CMAQ February 2020

• Inclusion of shoulder improvement projects that include the construction of bike lanes; • Inclusion of surface unpaved street projects and roundabout projects that leverage local funding beyond the required local match requirement throughout Kern County; • Meets financial constraint requirements by fiscal year; and • 20 projects in total.

Kern COG staff is selecting additional contingency projects for programming in two outer years. Details regarding the implementation of this selection will follow in a separate staff report.

Kern COG recommends approval of the CMAQ Program of Projects. Kern COG staff requests that the TTAC recommend approval of the CMAQ Program of Projects.

Attachment: Draft 2019 CMAQ Program of Projects – Summary of Programming by Category

By: Raquel Pacheco, Regional Planner Rochelle Invina, Regional Planner

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: XII CONGESTION MITIGATION AIR QUALITY (CMAQ) – CONTINGENCY PROJECT POLICY AND PROJECT LIST

DESCRIPTION:

Kern COG staff is proposing to add about $22 million of contingency CMAQ programming in FFY 22-23 and 23-24 in the event that projects for FFY 20-21 and 21-22 are not delivered. The draft was circulated to the TTAC via email December 26, 2019 and presented to the Transportation Planning Policy Committee on January 16, 2020.

DISCUSSION:

In order not to lose federal-aid CMAQ Program funding to the Kern region, Kern COG staff is proposing to add about $22 million of contingency CMAQ projects in FFY 22-23 and 23-24 in the event that newly programmed projects for FFY 20-21 and FFY 21-22 are not delivered. Kern COG staff again proposes a one-time policy to moderate how these proposed contingency projects are to be programmed in FFY 22-23 and 23-24 but must advance to an earlier federal fiscal year.

The proposed policy will apply guidance to the CMAQ Call for Projects currently in progress to add an additional measure of opportunity to advance projects and ensure the full use of CMAQ revenue when it’s made available to the Kern region. A change was made to the draft list of projects circulated on December 26, 2019. The City of Bakersfield requested to add the remaining multi-use path project (Stockdale Ranch Dr to Kern River bike path) to the contingency list as reflected in the revised attachment.

CMAQ Contingency Project Policy

1. Kern COG staff shall select eligible projects from the most recent Call for Projects list that were not selected for programming in FFY 20-21 or FFY 21-22 to be considered as a contingency project.

2. Lead agencies of proposed CMAQ contingency projects must be in agreement with Kern COG staff recommendation to be included as a CMAQ contingency project.

3. Programming capacity for CMAQ contingency projects shall be limited to the estimated apportionment level for the fiscal year following two fiscal years of new project programming. Page 2 Final CMAQ Contingency February 2020

4. CMAQ funding shall be applied to the construction phase only for all contingency projects.

5. If a contingency project is not advanced prior to January 2022, the agency will be required to resubmit the project with a new application to be reviewed, ranked and prioritized as part of the next CMAQ Call for Projects.

Kern COG recommends approval of the CMAQ Contingency Project Policy as presented in this report and Attachment A: CMAQ Contingency Project List.

Kern COG staff requests that the TTAC recommend approval.

By: Raquel Pacheco, Regional Planner

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: XIV FEDERAL TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (FTIP) - AMENDMENT PROCEDURE UPDATE

DESCRIPTION: The Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) is a dynamic short-range list of transportation projects that is subject to change. The FTIP amendment process was last revised April 16, 2015. Additional revisions are needed to update language consistent with Federal Highway Administration and Federal Transit Administration revised procedures.

DISCUSSION: Caltrans, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Federal Transit Administration (FTA), and Metropolitan Planning Organizations continue to work together to clarify how to manage the FTIP. In an effort to offer greater flexibility FHWA and FTA expanded the parameters of an administrative modification. An administrative modification is a minor change to the FTIP that does not require a conformity determination, a demonstration of fiscal constraint, public review and comment, or federal approval.

Kern COG is required to incorporate these revisions into Kern COG’s “Federal Transportation Improvement Program Amendment Policy.” There are several proposed updates to the policy but the following items are the major changes for administrative modifications:

• Threshold for adding funding to an individually listed project is limited to the lesser of 50% of the total project cost or $20 million; and • No limit on adding funds to a group project listing. Funding capacity must be available in the FSTIP/FTIP prior to processing programming changes and it must be stated in the supporting documentation.

Kern COG staff supports the changes, as they will allow more FTIP revisions to be processed quickly. The Draft Federal Transportation Improvement Program Amendment Policy includes additional language as part of this update (see attachment). Once approved, this document will be sent to Caltrans, FHWA, and FTA for their use.

Attachment: Draft Federal Transportation Improvement Program Amendment Policy

ACTION: Recommend approval of the revised FTIP Amendment Policy to the Transportation Planning Policy Committee Federal Transportation Improvement Program Amendment Policy

INTRODUCTION

Administrative Modifications or Amendments to the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) shall be submitted to Kern Council of Governments (Kern COG) in writing (on agency letterhead). The request shall show all recommended changes including a description of the revision. Kern COG staff shall determine if an Administrative Modification or Amendment is necessary for the requested revision. That determination shall be made in writing by Kern COG staff prior to presenting the requested revision to the Kern COG governing Board.

The following procedures are applicable for processing amendments and administrative modifications to the Federal Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (FSTIP). In accordance with the provisions of 23 CFR 450, and FTIP. developed by Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) are incorporated into the FSTIP and as such, these procedures are also applicable to TIP modifications.

In accordance with 23 CFR 450.216(n), projects in any of the first four years of the FSTIP may be moved to any other of the first four years of the FSTIP subject to the project selection requirements of 23 CFR 450.220. Such revisions do not require approval, provided expedited project selection procedures have been adopted in accordance with 23 CFR 450.220 and the required interagency consultation or coordination is accomplished and documented.

Projects programmed in the FSTIP may be delivered in any of the recognized program years of the FSTIP provided Expedited Project Selection Procedures have been adopted in accordance with 23 CFR 450 and the required interagency consultation or coordination is completed and documented. Such revisions do not require an administrative modification or an amendment if the change does not require an air quality conformity determination.

1) DEFINITIONS:

A) Administrative Modifications or administrative actions are minor changes to the FSTIP/FTIP that do not require a conformity determination, a demonstration of fiscal constraint, public review and comment, or federal approval:

1. Revise a project description of individually listed projects without changing the project scope or conflicting with the approved environmental document; 2. Revise the description of grouped project listings, as defined in 23 CFR Part 450.326(h), if it is consistent with the Programming Grouped Project Listings in Air Quality Non-Attainment or Maintenance Areas guidance. 3. Revise the funding amount listed for a project’s or a project phases: a. Additional funding to an individually listed project is limited to the lesser of 40 50 percent of the total project cost or $10 $20 million and programming capacity has to be available in the FSTIP/FTIP prior to programming the modification, and documented in the support materials; b. No limit on adding funds to a grouped project listing. Funding capacity must be available in the FSTIP/FTIP prior to processing programming changes and it must be stated in the supporting documentation. (Note: Updated FTIP financial plans may be requested by Caltrans to validate fiscal constraint if an MPO has processed only administrative modifications for a period of six months or more.) 4. Program preliminary engineering (PE) phase, provided the right-of-way and/or construction phase(s) are already programmed in the current FSTIP/FTIP and additional funding amounts stay within the limits specified in Section 23 above; 5. Cost decreases have no cap, however, the request to reduce the cost must originate from the project sponsor and include an explanation for the decrease; the reduction in cost does not result in deletion of a project or a phase, and the affected project phase is still fully funded; 6. Change the source of funds; 4/16/15 2/20/2020 Prepared by Kern Council of Governments 1

Federal Transportation Improvement Program Amendment Policy

7. Change a project lead agency; 8. Program federal funds for Advance Construction conversion provided that programming capacity is available in the FSTIP/FTIP prior to programming the conversion; 9. Change program year of funds within the 4-year current FSTIP/FTIP, provided Expedited Project Selection Procedures are in place; 10. Split or combine individually listed projects; as long as cost, provided schedule, and scope remain unchanged; 11. Change required information for grouped or lump sum project listings; or, 12. Add or delete projects from grouped or lump sum project listings provided the funding amounts stay within the funding change guidelines above (see Section 2). 13. Program emergency repair projects on the state and local highways caused by as a result of a natural disaster or catastrophic failure from an external cause, and that are not covered by the Emergency Relief Program, provided that these projects are and exempt from air quality conformity requirements; 14. Re-program a project for which FHWA funds were transferred to FTA in the prior FSTIP/FTIP and the FTA had not approved the grant yet cycle but has not received grant approval from the FTA. The project can be programmed in the current FSTIP/FTIP via administrative modification as long as there is no change in the provided original scope or cost remain unchanged. and the project needs to be programmed with Use the type “FTA 5307 (FHWA Transfer Funds)” to program in the FSTIP/FTIP. 15. Program FTA projects from the prior FSTIP/FTIP into the current FSTIP/FTIP via administrative modification as long as there is no change in the provided original scope or cost remain unchanged. Prior year funding must be differentiated from the current year funding by including narrative in the project description (or in “CTIPS MPO Comments” section) stating the year, amount and type of the prior year funds. 16. Make minor changes to the FTA funded grouped project listings. Minor changes include changing the number of transit vehicles purchased by 20% or less and changes to the fuel type of transit vehicles. Kern COG needs to take the change through its must conduct an interagency consultation procedures to confirm that the change in scope is deemed minor.

Administrative modifications can be processed in accordance with these procedures provided that:

1. It does not affect the air quality conformity determination, including timely implementation of Transportation Control Measures (TCMs), and

2. It does not impact financial constraint.

B) Amendments are all other modifications to FSTIP/FTIP that are not Administrative Actions Modifications. Examples include:

1. Introduction of a new project;

2. Scope changes that affect the approved air quality conformity analysis;

3. Funding changes that exceed 40% 50% of individually listed projects or impact the financial constraint of the funding program.

2) PROCEDURES:

A) Administrative Modifications (Administrative Actions) Kern COG’s Executive Director has delegated authority to approve Administrative Modifications to the FSTIP/FTIP. Once approved by the Kern COG Executive Director, the Administrative Modification will be deemed part of the California FSTIP. No State or Federal action will be required. Each Kern COG approved administrative action modification will be forwarded to Caltrans Headquarters, Division of Transportation Programming, FHWA, and FTA. If needed, Kern COG will demonstrate in a subsequent amendment that the net 4/16/15 2/20/2020 Prepared by Kern Council of Governments 2

Federal Transportation Improvement Program Amendment Policy financial change from each modification has been accounted.

B) Amendments Amendments to the FSTIP must be developed in accordance with the provisions of 23 CFR 450.326 and/or 23 CFR 450.216, and approved by the Federal agencies FHWA and/or FTA in accordance with 23 CFR 450.218 and 23 CFR 450.328. Kern COG’s Executive Director has been delegated to approve Amendment Types* 2 and 3 at the Executive Director’s discretion. Each Kern COG approved TIP amendment will be forwarded to Caltrans Headquarters, Division of Transportation Programming for approval on behalf of the Governor. To expedite processing, Kern COG will also forward a copy of the amendment to FHWA and FTA at the same time the amendment is sent to Caltrans. Once approved by Caltrans, on behalf of the Governor, Caltrans will forward the amendment to FHWA and/or FTA for Federal approval. Once approved by FHWA and/or FTA the amendment will be incorporated into California's FSTIP. The FHWA and/or FTA approval will be addressed to Caltrans, with copies to Kern COG.

*Transportation Conformity Types 2 & 3 – amendments not requiring conformity or regional transportation plan revisions.

3) DISPUTE RESOLUTION If a question arises on the interpretation of the definition of an administrative action (modification), Caltrans, Kern COG, FHWA and FTA (the parties) will consult with each other to resolve the question. If after consultation, the parties disagree on the definition of what constitutes an administrative action (modification), the final decision rests with the FTA for transit projects and FHWA for highway projects.

Re: KER161009, KER171002, KER180507 Deletion

Kern Council of Governments’ Project Delivery Policy for local projects requires that agencies submit for funding authorization by the end of the month of January. If an agency does not submit by January, then that agency sends a revised submittal schedule to Kern COG by January 17th. Since the City of Arvin does not plan to submit projects KER161009, KER171002, KER180507 by the end of January for funding authorization, the following is provided as City of Arvin’s response:

KER161009 Haven Drive Pedestrian and Bicycle Infrastructure Project • Funding program: Active Transportation Program • Total cost of project: $643,000 • Federal share of project: $643,000 • Reason for deletion: City will be unable to complete the project before the expiration date of the PE and CON funds.

February 5, 2020

TO: Transportation Technical Advisory Committee Regional Planning Advisory Committee

FROM: Ahron Hakimi, Executive Director

By: Ben Raymond, Regional Planner

SUBJECT: TTAC AGENDA ITEM: XVIII PUBLIC WORKSHOP/PUBLIC COMMENT – 2020-2050 GROWTH FORECAST DRAFT REPORT

DESCRIPTION:

The 2020-2050 Growth Forecast Draft Report is available for review and public comment on Kern COG’s webpage https://www.kerncog.org/estimates-and-projections/. The public workshop of the forecast is scheduled to be hosted at the Kern COG board meeting in February 2020.

DISCUSSION:

Background

The Regional Growth Forecast Defined - The Kern COG regional growth forecast is a long-range projection for countywide total population. The population total is used to develop housing, employment, school enrollment, and income forecasts. The forecast is used for local transportation and air quality planning as well as by the member agencies for a variety of long-range planning activities. This forecast revision will serve as the growth assumption for the 2022 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy. The forecast is used as a control target by the modeling committee and RPAC for distribution of socio-economic data throughout the county sub areas. The forecast is based on Census Data and California Department of Finance (DOF) estimates for the base year. If the growth forecast is more than 1.5% outside of DOF projections, Kern COG will need to provide a detailed explanation why the forecasts differs and work with DOF to agree on the forecast methodology.

Review Requirements – The Kern COG Policy and Procedure Manual states:

“Socio-Economic Forecast Data – Countywide forecasts for households, employment and other socio-economic data shall be updated not less than 3 years from the time of the Socio-economic forecast. A minimum of three years between Countywide forecast revisions is needed to allow responsible state and federal agencies time to complete their review of large environmental documents without major changes to transportation circulation modeling results...“

The Kern COG adopted Public Policy and Procedure manual requires an advertised notice of public meetings/workshops regarding the regional growth forecast and 30-day public comment period. Additional, extensive opportunities for public comment on the forecast will be provided as part of the 2022 Regional Transportation Plan adoption.

Committee Oversight – The Kern COG Transportation Modeling sub-committee and the Regional Planning Advisory Committee (RPAC) will provide oversight during the growth forecast update. The committees currently meet together and are also responsible for sub-area distribution of the growth forecast following the adoption. The regional growth forecast will be presented to the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC) concurrently, and then to the Transportation Planning Policy Committee/Kern COG Board for final adoption.

Draft Regional Growth Forecast Report – The Draft Report is available for public review on Kern COG’s website: https://www.kerncog.org/estimates-and-projections/. The primary forecasts of the regional growth forecast are for the number of households, population, housing units, and employment. The report also provides forecast data demographic characteristics including: age distribution, housing units by type, average household size, household income, race and ethnicity.

The draft report shows Kern’s total population reaching 1 million by 2028 and by 2050 the population is expected to reach 1.2 million. The number of households are expected to increase to just over 362,000 by 2050 from 270,000 in 2019. Total employment is forecasted to grow from 338,000 in 2019 to 402,000 in 2050.

The report compares the forecasts with other forecasts, projections and trends. The total population forecast stays within 1.5% of the latest DOF projections. The graph below depicts how the forecast for total population compares to other forecasts and projections.
