Welcome. 23 SECRETARY BIEHLER: Thank you very much, 24 Mr. Chairma.n and members of the.Commj-ttee. Can you 25 hear? 1 CHAIRMAN ARGALL: Itrs not on. 2 SECRETARY BIEHLER: AII TiqhI. There we go. WeII, 1et me just say thank you for inviting me; 4 and I'm very pleased to be with you. 5 I would like to give just a few highlights. I believe you have my opening statement. Let me give I you in my own words some hiqhlights of our progress U from last year and hopefully our good direction for 9 the coming year 10 Looking through some of the modes, I would 1l- l-i ke to talk about highways and bridges f irst. We t2 had a target last year of putting out for l-3 construction a total of a billion and a quarter 14 doll-ars worth of work. 15 Irm pleased to be able to say that we met IO that target and slightly exceeded it. We were able 1,7 to put out a little over $1.3 billion worth'of work. 18 It's an important part of our entire 1_9 highway program along with our maintenance efforts" 20 and when you couple the new and reconstruction 2T efforts with our maintenance, we are abLe to improve 22 something in the neighborhood of almost 6500 miles of 23 road. That's been a fairly steady number in recent 24 years, 63 to 6500. We've been about on par through a 25 series of special efforts that f'11- talk about in a 1r second. '04-'05, 2 As .we l-ook f orward to FY w€r J again, dt the moment are targeting, againr. about a 4 billion and a quarter dollars as our construction 5 contracting target f or pro j ects across t.he Commonwealth. I On the bridge side of our business, due to B some programs that you folks have had a hand in 9 startj-ng going way back into Lhe '80sr we spent 10 something in the neighborhood of $a billion 11 cumulative j-n that period of time on our bridge t2 q rr q I am 1J This yearr we have been targeting we T4 targeted around $300 million for our piece of work on the bridges. .Werve been able to hold to that, but I 16 also need to tel-l you straight.forward that bridges 17 continue to be a real- dif f icul-t arena f or us. 1B We've got depending on whether you're 19 measuring bridges over 8 feet or 20 feet, we've got 20 somewhere between L6r 00O and 25r 0OO bridges. 2L They continue to be a struggle for us. 22 They continue to be a struggle trying to get ahead of 23 the curve, if you wi11, indemnity bridges and giving 24 the various kinds of funding programs about not 25 quite, but about one out of every four bridges has I some sort of structural deterioration. They may not 2 be weight restricted. Some are. In fact, a few are 1 cl-osed. 4 It's enough to. cause us concern trying to continue to campaign our bridge system as we go forward, and we will continue to do that. 1 Under the heading of Rail- Freight Grants, v obviously, our as I have come to our railway 9 programs, j-t's a critical program. We've got 10 something like 5r000 miles of rail Iines, freight l_1 rail- lines in Pennsylvania. About half of them are t2 the big Class 1 systems and the other half are the 1? smaller systems; short lines, and whatnot. They're a l-+ critical part of our business and assets in industry and keeping ourselves in a competitive position, none 16 the least of which is a concern to make sure that l7 we're helping where we can within the bounds of our l-8 grant programs to keep infrastructure in good shape, IY so that we also not. only remain economically 20 competitiver:but also do all we can to make sure we 2T have as much balance with moving freight between 22 highways and trucks and rail- and rail vehicles. 23 I'm pleased that we have proposed in next zLl year's budget to increase the rail freight grant 25 program back to its traditional 1evel of a 1itt1e 10 1 over $ B mil-1ion. 2 We've been in the last three or more J years, we've had a program of about four and a 4 quarter million dollars. I'm pleased we are proposing with '04-'05 budget to increase it to eight 6 and a half million dollars. 7 There's been a significant number of grant I requests to be able to do that. Again, the more we Y can I think given the incredibl-e growth of truck 10 traffic on our highway system, the more we can do to l_1 encourage a better balance between rail and highways, t2 it's going to be good for a1I of us. 13 Another big effort, just a minor note to 74 you folks, is the grant application process. We have 15 expedited the grant application process. We're doing J-O as much as we can electronically to get these L7 requests in on time and get them programmed in such a 18 wdy, so that once the grant amounts are approved, 19 that we can deliver the dollars as quickly as 20 possible. 21 We're doing a similar thing on the aviation 22 side to determine the grant cost.

Chairman Rep. Tony DeLuca (D-Allegheny) has already scheduled hearings for March 26 and 27 to begin committee deliberations on the plan. Having one large bill appears to be a change from the originally announced Administration presentation that there would be 47 separate parts to the reforms.

  • DOLLARS and SENSE Realistic Ways Policymakers Can Help Pennsylvania’S Working Families
    DOLLARS AND SENSE Realistic ways policymakers can help Pennsylvania’s working families Prepared by the Governor’s Task Force for Working Families January 2005 Co-Chairs Representative Dwight Evans Secretary of Banking Bill Schenck January 2005 The Honorable Edward G. Rendell Governor Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 225 Main Capitol Building Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17120 Dear Governor Rendell, We eagerly accepted your appointment to co-chair a Task Force that would explore strategies to help the Commonwealth’s working families. Over the past several months many people have joined with us in this important work—including a number of working families who shared their thoughts at the two dozen open discussions we convened throughout the summer. More than 60 Task Force members—representing state government, financial entities, educational institutions, community groups, employers, and others—invested their time and lent their expertise to develop the recommendations that we respectfully submit to you today. We were tough task masters, and they had a tough job. We were not interested in duplicating progress already underway in the Commonwealth’s current economic stimulus, workforce development, health care reform, manufacturing modernization, or mortgage foreclosure prevention efforts. Nor were we interested in academic solutions to real-world problems or costly overhauls that could not receive serious consideration in the current fiscal environment. Task Force members took their charge seriously, and the commitment, creativity and passion they brought to this process is evident in its impressive results. This report provides an achievable, cost-effective blueprint that can make a real difference in the lives of Pennsylvania’s hard working families.

  • Final Washington Financial Literacy Work Group Report
    December 1, 2008 Dear Governor Gregoire, In the following pages you will find an overview of the work completed by the Washington Financial Literacy Work Group, supporting documentation for the group’s nine recommendations to improve financial education for all Washington State residents and several reference documents in the attached appendices. Acting on the requirements cited in SB 6272 (Chapter 3, Laws of 2008), the group was tasked to: 1. Identify current state funded efforts to support financial literacy; 2. Assess whether there are opportunities to create a centralized location of information regarding these existing state efforts; and 3. Identify whether there are opportunities for expanding partnerships with other community entities also providing financial literacy services. Members of this group answered your directive, completed the tasks and provided additional research and data in an effort to present you with the most comprehensive report possible on financial education in Washington State. The Work Group was careful to ensure their nine recommendations address the needs of all Washington residents and recognize existing works to improve financial education for Washington’s K-12 students by groups such as the Financial Literacy Public Private Partnership and Jump$tart Washington Coalition. A diverse group of more than 30 financial education advocates in Washington State gathered to address the importance of financial education – as it pertains to individuals as well as our state and national economy. The full Work Group met seven times — from April through October. Additionally, subcommittees formed and met on numerous occasions. Meeting notes and audio files are available on the Work Group Web site: www.dfi.wa.gov/work-group.
