In this subsection— the term allocated cost model means a method of determining the cost of trips by allocating the cost to each trip purpose served by a transportation provider in a manner that is proportional to the level of transportation service that the transportation provider delivers for each trip purpose, to the extent permitted by applicable Federal requirements; and the term Council means the Interagency Transportation Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility established under Executive Order 13330 ( 49 U.S.C. 101 note).
Not later than 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act, the Council shall publish a strategic plan for the Council that— outlines the role and responsibilities of each Federal agency with respect to local transportation coordination, including non-emergency medical transportation; identifies a strategy to strengthen interagency collaboration; addresses any outstanding recommendations made by the Council in the 2005 Report to the President relating to the implementation of Executive Order 13330, including— a cost-sharing policy endorsed by the Council; and recommendations to increase participation by recipients of Federal grants in locally developed, coordinated planning processes; and to the extent feasible, addresses recommendations by the Comptroller General of the United States concerning local coordination of transportation services.
In establishing the cost-sharing policy required under paragraph (2), the Council may consider, to the extent practicable— the development of recommended strategies for grantees of programs funded by members of the Council, including strategies for grantees of programs that fund non-emergency medical transportation, to use the cost-sharing policy in a manner that does not violate applicable Federal requirements; and optional incorporation of an allocated cost model to facilitate local coordination efforts that comply with applicable requirements of programs funded by members of the Council, such as— eligibility requirements; service delivery requirements; and reimbursement requirements.
In this subsection— the term eligible project has the meaning given the term capital project in section 5302 of title 49, United States Code; and the term eligible recipient means a recipient or subrecipient, as those terms are defined in section 5310 of title 49, United States Code. The Secretary may make grants under this subsection to eligible recipients to assist in financing innovative projects for the transportation disadvantaged that improve the coordination of transportation services and non-emergency medical transportation services, including— the deployment of coordination technology; projects that create or increase access to community One-Call/One-Click Centers; and such other projects as determined by the Secretary.
An eligible recipient shall submit to the Secretary an application that, at a minimum, contains— a detailed description of the eligible project; an identification of all eligible project partners and their specific role in the eligible project, including— private entities engaged in the coordination of non-emergency medical transportation services for the transportation disadvantaged; or nonprofit entities engaged in the coordination of non-emergency medical transportation services for the transportation disadvantaged; a description of how the eligible project would— improve local coordination or access to coordinated transportation services; reduce duplication of service, if applicable; and provide innovative solutions in the State or community; and specific performance measures the eligible project will use to quantify actual outcomes against expected outcomes.
The Government share of the cost of an eligible project carried out under this subsection shall not exceed 80 percent. The non-Government share of the cost of an eligible project carried out under this subsection may be derived from in-kind contributions. For purposes of this subsection, non-emergency medical transportation services shall be limited to services eligible under Federal programs other than programs authorized under chapter 53 of title 49, United States Code. Section 5310(a) of title 49, United States Code, is amended by striking paragraph
(1)and inserting the following: The term recipient means— a designated recipient or a State that receives a grant under this section directly; or a State or local governmental entity that operates a public transportation service. .
