-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Section 5207 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient
Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) established
the Surface Transportation Environment and Planning Cooperative
Research Program (STEP). The FHWA anticipates that the STEP or a
similar program to provide resources for national research on issues
related to planning, environment, and realty will be included in future
surface transportation legislation. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2011, the FHWA
expects to seek partnerships that can leverage limited research funding
in the STEP with other stakeholders and partners in order to increase
the total amount of resources available to meet the Nation's surface
transportation research needs.
The purpose of this notice is to announce revisions to the STEP
implementation strategy for FY 2011 and to request suggested lines of
research for the FY 2011 STEP via the STEP Web site at http://
www.fhwa.dot.gov/hep/step/index.htm in anticipation of future surface
transportation legislation.
DATES: Suggestions for lines of research should be submitted to the
STEP Web site on or before September 30, 2010.
