In February 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act appropriated $1.5 billion for discretionary grants for capital investments in surface transportation projects of national and regional significance, including highways, transit, rail, ports, and others. The act required the Department of Transportation (DOT) to develop criteria to award these grant--known as the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) grant--and to meet several statutory requirements. GAO was asked to review (1) the criteria and process used to evaluate applications and award grants, (2) the outcome of the process, and (3) the extent to which DOT communicated information to applicants and the public. GAO reviewed documentation of the award process and selection documentation and interviewed key DOT officials.

While FG funding has been increasing, long-standing concerns remain about the fed. government's grants mgmt. and the lack of effective oversight tools to reasonably assure that FG are used for their intended purposes and that risks of fraud, waste, and abuse are minimized. The Admin. recognizes these concerns; it included improving grants mgmt. as a part of its initiative to eliminate waste in the U.S. gov't. and has various efforts underway to improve grants oversight. This testimony addresses the: (1) significance of FG funding; (2) risks and vulnerabilities in key controls in the FG life cycle; and (3) improvements needed to make the single audit process an effective accountability mechanism. Illustrations. This is a print on demand report.
