Minimum Eligibility Requirements At a minimum, projects submitted to the Memphis MPO must be in the Memphis Urban Area’s Livability 2040 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and can include projects eligible for Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBG) funding that supports the goals and objec- tives of the RTP. Additionally, the lead agency must work through their internal process to secure the 20% matching funds needed. APPENDIX A 2. Commitment to Implement Project and Project Delays The submission and approval of a request using STBG funds shall constitute a commitment to complete the project in a timely manner as described in the application form by the project’s lead agency. Any part of the project scope credited in awarding evaluation points becomes a permanent part of the project scope and must be implemented. APPENDIX B To ensure that all allocated funds made available to the Memphis MPO are used, all lead agencies with funding requests will work with ap- propriate DOTs and the Memphis MPO to ensure that all State and federal requirements are met, and that the project follows the program- ming schedule in the TIP. APPENDIX C The Memphis MPO will program STBG funds for any transportation projects over a 4‐year period within the TIP. Each phase of a project should be obligated by the end of the federal fiscal year (September 30) designated in the TIP. A delay is defined as a situation where a project’s federal funding is not obligated in the fiscal year identified in the TIP. After the first delay, the MPO staff will report to the Engineer- ing and Technical Committee (ETC) and the Transportation Policy Board (TPB), the projects using programmed STBG funds, that have not received obligation and the reason for the delay. A second delay will occur 8 weeks prior to the MPO’s 2nd Quarter ETC meeting. At this APPENDIX D time MPO Staff will begin the amendment process to remove the subsequent phases from the TIP at the 2nd Quarter ETC and TPB meet- ing’s (see example below). After the second delay only the first phase of work will remain in the TIP and all other phases will be removed from the TIP. Project delays will be reviewed to determine if it is a result of the project approval process through the State DOTs and special consideration will be given in such cases. Project delays will be considered as part of the development of future TIP cycles and points will be awarded to projects that have received timely obligation. For projects that have only one phase identified in the TIP, the second delay APPENDIX E will be documented and taken into consideration when programming funds for future TIP cycles. Projects using Transportation Alternatives (TA) funds will also be tracked and any project delays will be reported to the ETC and TPB. For Tennessee projects, the obligation deadline for TA funds is July 1st, approximately 2 years and 9 months after the last day of the fiscal year for which the funds were authorized. The lead agency is required to contact the MPO staff, a minimum of 6 months prior to the potential APPENDIX F expiration date of any TA funds for a project. The MPO staff, at this time, will determine if there is another project in the TIP that is both ready for obligation and meets the eligibility criteria for the TA funds. In this case the funding source for the projects, if agreed upon by MPO staff, TDOT, and the lead agencies, could be swapped. For Mississippi projects, obligation of TA funds will be tracked as part of the regularly scheduled TIP project status meetings. For both Tennessee and Mississippi, the lead agency should keep the MPO staff informed of any delays in the obligation of TA funds. APPENDIX G Please be aware if any project does not get started in a 10 year time period, then the lead agency will be responsible for reimbursing the federal funds as required under Section 102(b) of Title 23, United States Code (U.S.C.). The Memphis MPO staff will track projects quarter- ly and record the funds that are obligated on the project TIP pages. APPENDIX H Example: A project is included in the FY 2017-20 TIP with funding designated for PE-D for FY 2017 and ROW for FY 2019. If the funds for the PE-D phase are not obligated by September 30, 2017 then the project will receive its first delay and MPO staff will report to the ETC and TPB the reason for the delay. If the funds for PE-D are not obligated, eight weeks prior to the MPO’s 2nd Quarter ETC meeting, then the PE -D phase would stay in the TIP but the future phase for ROW would be removed and the funds would be returned to the MPO’s total availa- ble balance.

Carry-over projects will be given priority within the project application and ranking process if the project has shown timely obligation of the phases included within the previous TIP. 4. Overmatching Funds Projects seeking additional points by providing more than the required 20% match will be required to provide documentation, such as a TABLE OFCONTENTS signed letter from the Mayor, CIP page, or resolution from local legislative board.
