Public Notice for Social Services Block Grant for Emergency Disaster Relief
The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) awarded the East
Texas Council of Governments (ETCOG) a Social Services Block Grant (SSBG)
for Emergency Disaster Relief. These funds may be used to reimburse local
organizations in providing allowable health and human services to individuals
affected by Hurricane Rita.
Proposed services must be provided to evacuees located in one of the following
14 counties: Gregg, Harrison, Panola, Marion, Cherokee, Rusk, Smith, Van Zandt,
Anderson, Camp, Wood, Rains, Upshur, and Henderson. To apply for funding,
a local organization must submit an Application for Funding.
The Request for Application is being released to
provide future services
to:
(a) promote self-sufficiency and job placement for Rita evacuees; and/or
(b) provide social services/health services/maintenance for Rita evacuees
who cannot live independently.
In releasing this Request for Applications (RFA), ETCOG is not making a
commitment to reimburse an organization based solely on the submittal of the
organization's identified plan for expenditures. Local organizations submitting
Applications must establish the amount of projected funds to be expended on
Hurricane Rita evacuees. Several of the SSBG eligible services may include,
but are not limited to: congregate meals, home-based services, housing services,
health related and home health services, legal services, transportation, special
services for at risk youth or persons with developmental or physical disabilities,

to August 31, 2007. The total amount of grant funds available for Hurricane
Rita expenditures is $547,952.00. The grant funds are financed utilizing 100%
federal funds.
Applications will be evaluated by a RFA Review Team, and organizations
that best meet the criteria of the RFA will be awarded contracts. After applications
have been approved and funding amounts determined, ETCOG will execute a financial
contract with each local organization. As services are provided, organizations
must submit valid documentation/written verification (i.e. receipts, invoices,
spreadsheets, etc.) substantiating expenditures per evacuee with individual
FEMA Numbers, in order to be reimbursed. Expenses paid from the receipt of
cash donations, or reimbursement for donated goods and/or services are not
allowable.

should send a request by letter, e-mail or fax. to: Peggy M. Collier, Program
Coordinator, East Texas Council of Governments, 3800 Stone Road, Kilgore,

Notice of Request for Proposal - Workforce Transportation Projects
The Texas Department of Transportation (department) announces a Request
for Proposal (RFP) for workforce transportation projects. The project will
be funded through the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) 42 U.S.C. §5316
Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) Program, and will be administered by
the Public Transportation Division of the department. The RFP is available
in electronic and printed format from the department. See "To Obtain a Copy
of the RFP" later in this notice.
Purpose:
The purpose of the funding is for
public transportation projects for access to jobs and reverse commute purposes.
A job access project is one that transports welfare recipients and eligible
low-income individuals to and from jobs and activities related to employment.
A reverse commute project is one that takes individuals from urbanized (cities/downtown
areas) and non-urbanized areas to suburban employers. The federal statute
has no reference to welfare or income status associated with reverse commute
projects; therefore these projects are open to a rider of any income level.
Eligible Applicants:
Eligible applicants
include local governmental authorities, private nonprofit organizations, operators
of public transportation services and private for-profit operators of public
transportation services.
Availability of Funds:
A maximum of $5,245,677
($3,065,349 for areas 50,000 to 199,999 population and $2,180,328 for areas
less than 50,000 in population) will be available to fund the competitively
selected job access and reverse commute proposals requested by this RFP. The
department anticipates the project period to be from August 2007 to August
31, 2009.
Program Goal:
The department's goal in administering
the Section 5316 program is to promote the availability of public transportation
services targeted to employment and employment-related transportation needs.
To achieve this goal, the department's objectives are to:
(1) promote the development of employment transportation services throughout
the state, in partnership with local officials, public and private non-profit
agencies, and operators of public transportation services;
(2) fully integrate the JARC program with other federal and state programs
supporting public, employment, and human service transportation;
(3) foster the development of local, coordinated public and human service
transportation service plans from which JARC projects are derived;
(4) support local economic development; and
(5) improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the JARC program.
Eligible Projects:
Eligible types of projects
have been defined by the Texas Transportation Commission in accordance with
FTA guidelines, other laws and regulations, and in consultation with members
of the public transportation industry,
see
43
Texas Administrative Code, Part 1, Chapter 31, Subchapter C, §31.17.
These include projects for local administration, vehicle capital, planning,
marketing, and operating assistance.
Job access projects include:
*
financing the eligible costs of projects
that provide public transportation services targeted to welfare recipients
and eligible low-income individuals;
*
promoting public transportation use by
low-income workers, including the use of public transportation by workers
with nontraditional work schedules;
*
promoting the use of employer-provided
transportation, including the transit pass benefit program under Section 132
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986;
*
supporting mobility management and coordination
programs among public transportation providers and other human service agencies
providing employment or employment-related transportation services;
*
otherwise facilitating or providing transportation
for employment or employment-related purposes by welfare recipients and low
income persons.
Reverse commute projects include:
*
subsidizing the costs associated with adding
reverse commute bus, train, carpool, van routes, or service from urbanized
areas and non-urbanized areas to suburban workplaces;
*
subsidizing the purchase or lease by a
nonprofit organization or public agency of a van or bus dedicated to shuttling
employees from their residences to a suburban workplace;
*
supporting mobility management and coordination
programs among public transportation providers and other human service agencies
providing employment or employment-related transportation services;
*
otherwise facilitating or providing public
transportation services to suburban employment opportunities.
Review and Award Criteria:
Each application
will first be screened for completeness and timeliness. Proposals that are
deemed incomplete or arrive after the deadline will not be reviewed. Proposals
will be evaluated against a matrix of criteria and then prioritized. Subject
to available funding, the department is placing no preconditions on the number
or on the types of projects to be selected for funding. During the evaluation
phase of each proposal, the department reserves the right to conduct formal
negotiations pertaining to a proposer's initial responses, specifications,
and prices. An approximate balance in funding awarded to the five types of
projects, or an approximate geographic balance of selected projects, may be
seen as appropriate, depending on the proposals that are received. The department
may consider these additional criteria when recommending prioritized projects
to the Texas Transportation Commission.

Pursuant to Title 43, Texas Administrative Code, §2.5(e)(5), the Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is announcing to the public the availability
of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), dated January 2007, for
the proposed construction of Segment G of the Grand Parkway (State Highway
99) northeast of Houston in Harris and Montgomery Counties, Texas. Comments
regarding the DEIS can be mailed to the Grand Parkway Association, Attention:
Segment G Comments, 4544 Post Oak Place, Suite 222, Houston, Texas 77027 or
to TxDOT Houston District, Attention: Director of Project Development, P.O.
Box 1386, Houston, Texas 77251-1386. Comments will be accepted by e-mail to
segmentgcomments@grandpky.com. All comments must be submitted prior to 5:00
p.m. on April 27, 2007.
Transportation improvements are needed in the Segment G study area because
there are inefficient connections between suburban communities and major radial
roadways, the current and future transportation demand exceeds capacity, many
roadways in the study area have a high accident rate, and there is an increasing
strain on transportation infrastructure from population and economic growth.
The purpose of the proposed transportation improvements in the Segment G study
area is to efficiently link the suburban communities and major roadways, enhance
mobility and safety, and respond to economic growth. The goal is to improve
system linkage, address current and future transportation demand, improve
safety and hurricane evacuation, and accommodate population and economic growth.
The study process included consideration of a full range of alternatives;
the Study Team considered the No-Build Alternative, various transportation
modes, alternative corridors, and various Build Alternative Alignments. Transportation
System Management (TSM), Travel Demand Management (TDM), Smart Street improvements,
and modal transportation improvements such as bus transit, high-occupancy
vehicle lanes, rail feasibility, and new planned roadway construction were
considered. Alternatives determined not to meet the need for and purpose of
the project were eliminated from further consideration, while other reasonable
alternatives were identified and carried forward for detailed study. The Build
Alternative was selected because it is the only alternative that fulfills
the need for and purpose of the project. The study approach first emphasized
avoidance, and then minimization to ensure that the identified Preferred Alternative
Corridor, and ultimately the Recommended Alternative Alignment, minimizes
adverse impacts to the greatest extent possible. The Recommended Alternative
Alignment was identified after careful consideration of comments received
from the public and resource agencies.
The Recommended Alternative Alignment consists of a controlled access toll
road on a new location. The proposed facility would include four main lanes
and intermittent frontage roads within a right-of-way width of 400 feet. A
total of four Build Alternative Alignments (A through D), in addition to the
No-Build Alternative, are presented in the DEIS. All alternative alignments
extend from IH 45 to US 59 in an east-west direction and are described as
follows.
• Alternative Alignment A begins at IH 45 approximately 2.9 miles
north of FM 2920 and passes through the center of the study area. This alignment
alternative ends at US 59 near Community Drive and is 13.7 miles in length.
• Alternative Alignment B begins at IH 45 approximately 0.2 mile south
of IH 45 and the Hardy Toll Road interchange. Alternative Alignment B passes
through the northern and southern portion of the study area before ending
at the same location as Alternative Alignment A. Alternative Alignment B is
13.6 miles in length.
• Alternative Alignment C begins at the same location as Alternative
Alignment A but passes through the southern and northern portion of the study
area. Alternative Alignment C ends at the same location as Alternative Alignments
A and B and is 13.7 miles in length.
• Alternative Alignment D begins at the same location as Alternative
Alignments A and C and is 14.4 miles in length. Alternative Alignment D passes
through the northern and southern portion of the study area before ending
at the same as Alternative Alignments A-C.
The Recommended Alternative Alignment that has emerged from the study is
a combination of alternative alignments. The Recommended Alternative Alignment
allows impact avoidance and minimization for a number of resources, fulfills
the need for and purpose of the project, and provides feasible engineering
alternatives. The Recommended Alternative Alignment best balances the expected
project benefits with the overall effects.
The Recommended Alternative Alignment for Segment G would require the taking
of right-of-way, the adjustment of utility lines, and the filling of aquatic
resources including approximately 31.7 acres of potentially jurisdictional
wetlands. The displacement of one business, 63 existing residences and 59
platted residences would occur. Additionally, like all alignments considered,
the Recommended Alternative Alignment would affect visual resources in the
immediate area, present potential access impacts, cause changes to community
cohesion, and affect 129.9 acres of bottomland hardwood forests. No effects
to schools, churches, archeological sites, historic properties, cemeteries,
publicly-owned parks, remnant prairie topography, riparian forests, or endangered
species are expected. The separation of farmland from homesteads is also not
expected. No disproportionate affects to minority or low-income populations
would result from this alternative. Although a Recommended Alternative Alignment
is presented, selection of the final Preferred Alternative Alignment will
not be made until after the public comment period is completed, comments on
the DEIS are received and considered, and the environmental effects are fully
evaluated.
The Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Act of
1970 (Uniform Act) requires that comparable, decent, safe, and sanitary replacement
housing within a person's financial means be made available to all affected
residents. The State's Relocation Assistance Program will be available to
all individuals, families, businesses, farmers, ranchers, and nonprofit organizations
displaced as a result of the proposed project. Acquisitions of businesses
and residences will be conducted in accordance with the Uniform Act, as amended
in 1987. Relocation assistance would be made available to all businesses and
residences without discrimination, consistent with the requirements of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Housing and Urban Development Amendment of
1974. Representatives from the State of Texas will be available at the public
hearing to answer questions and provide information concerning the property
acquisition process and benefits offered by relocation assistance. The property
acquisition process for this project is scheduled to begin in 2008. Construction
could begin as early as 2009, depending upon the completion of property acquisition
and the availability of funds.
