Definitions Applied By Mode Urban: NTD Rural: dotGrant Definitions: Act 44 as data permits

Act 44 “Special Considerations” “Circumstances Beyond Award Recipient’s

Control”

Events beyond grantee’s control which negatively affect performance, i.e., strikes, infrastructure failures, natural disasters.

Added Consideration of :» New, restructured, revised services» Discontinued services» Man-made disasters» Other (i.e., Special Events)

Draft – Discussion Only11

Progress To-Date (continued)

Perf. Review Major Analytical Components

Peer Review Trend Analysis (intra-agency) Functional Analysis (as warranted) Annual Risk Assessment by DOT

Regular Cycle 3-6 years; average 5 years More frequent – per performance data

Data Timeliness 1-2 year NTD data lag may be filled

with local or dotGrant data, where feasible.

Draft – Discussion Only12

Progress To-Date (continued)

Graduated Approach Basic Review

In compliance per base metrics and no “best practices” to document. Close out.

Step 2 Review In compliance; minor issues or Best

Practice from Basic Review. Possible Group 2, 3 metrics. Resolve via agency-developed “improvement plan” or document Best Practice.

Step 3 Review Potential or demonstrated non-

compliance. Group 2, 3 metrics; Functional review. May result in Action Plan to rectify non-compliance, potential funding implications per Act; or “Improvement Plan.”
