FY 2022 National Infrastructure Investments

archived

Agency Name: Department of Transportation Description: The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Pub. L. 117-58, November 15, 2021, “Bipartisan Infrastructure Law,” or “BIL”) authorized and appropriated $1.5 billion to be awarded by the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) for FY 2022 for Local and Regional Project Assistance Program Grants under National Infrastructure Investments. This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) solicits applications for projects to be funded under the Local and Regional Project Assistance Program, known as the RAISE Grants program, including any additional funding appropriated for the RAISE Grants program under the FY 2022 Appropriations Act. On March 15, 2022, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (Pub. L. 117-103, “FY 2022 Appropriations Act”) appropriated an additional $775 million for the FY 2022 RAISE Grant Program. Therefore, a total of $2.275 billion in funding is now available for the FY 2022 RAISE Grant Program. Applicants should note that the two funding streams (BIL funding and FY 2022 Appropriations Act funding) have slightly different funding restrictions and requirements that may affect competitiveness. Please see the Notice of Funding Opportunity Amendment No.1 for details. As with previous rounds, funds for the FY 2022 RAISE Transportation program are to be awarded on a competitive basis for projects that will have a significant local or regional impact.
