4 <br /> In a written response provided by GoTriangle to FTA on January 12, it was stated that work is currently underway to <br /> update the Durham and Orange Transit Plans and get more funding committed to the project. GoTriangle stated these <br /> approvals were anticipated to be completed April 2017. <br /> Therefore, FTA will provide GoTriangle until April 2017 to submit additional information to FTA documenting the <br /> commitment of at least 30 percent of the non-CIG funding required to enter the Engineering phase. The documentation <br /> submitted by GoTriangle must clearly identify the amount of non-CIG funds committed from a given revenue source and <br /> demonstrate no further approvals would be necessary to obtain the funds from that source. <br /> If GoTriangle is unable to provide the necessary documentation showing at least 30%of the non-CIG funding is <br /> committed by the end of April 2017, no further extensions of the Project Development phase will be approved. Per <br /> FTA's Final Interim Policy Guidance, "the project will automatically be withdrawn from PD. Project sponsors must <br /> complete the work activities . . .before they would be allowed to apply for entry into the Engineering phase of the CIG <br /> program. Any work performed after withdrawal from PD and prior to re-entry into Engineering would not be covered by <br /> pre-award authority and would be ineligible for reimbursement at a future date should FTA ultimately award a <br /> construction grant agreement." <br /> Please contact us if you have any questions. <br /> Thank you. <br /> Tyrhonda Edwards <br /> Federal Transit Administration <br /> Office of Planning and Environment(TPE) <br /> 1200 New Jersey Ave, SE <br /> Washington,DC 20590 <br /> Phone: 202-366-8521 <br /> CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: <br /> The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.
