Town of Bloomsburg
The Town of Bloomsburg and Bloomsburg
University propose a transportation project for
approximately 850 LF of road at the
intersection of Lightstreet Road, Country Club
Road and Swisher Circle to improve safety and
better manage the heavy pedestrian and
vehicular traffic at the intersection. Specifically
this project proposes to construct turn lanes
on Lightstreet Road and Country Club Road
and replace the existing traffic signal. The
transportation improvements will serve
Bloomsburg University, a major employer in
Columbia County, as well as provide secondary
benefits to the merchants located in
downtown Bloomsburg. This project is
expected to reduce crashes at this intersection
by 90%. The transportation improvements will
also accommodate the proposed expansion of
student housing at Bloomsburg University
which is estimated to create 25 construction
jobs.

which is a major access road for the MCIDC
Plaza, the SEDA-COG Joint Rail Authority rail
yards, the Greater Lewistown Corporate
Center, the First Energy substation, as well as
other small employers. This project involves
reconstruction of Roundhouse Road from SR
103 and proceeding 3,150 LF west. The project
will include new pavement, roadway widening,
and drainage improvements. This access road
will serve over 1 million sq. ft. of industrial
space and 30 existing companies employing

Public Invited to Comment on Draft Long Range Transportation Plan
News for Immediate Release
Nov. 17, 2014
Harrisburg – The public is invited to comment on the state’s draft, Long Range Transportation Plan, which will help guide future
12-Year Programs and regional plans, by visiting
www.PAOnTrack.com( http://www.paontrack.com/ )
.
“Our Long Range Transportation Plan provides a vision for Pennsylvania’s future by focusing on system preservation, safety,
stewardship and personal and freight mobility,” PennDOT Secretary Barry J. Schoch said. “I encourage the public to join us in
establishing these goals because our transportation network impacts all of us for generations to come.”
The draft plan, which includes goals, objectives and recommendations based on department research and public input, is viewable
by clicking “Draft Long Range Plan” on the homepage. Comments can be submitted through the “Comment Here” section under
“Public Participation.”
The public comments contributing to the plan were collected from more than 2,500 people who took a survey this spring identifying
their top transportation priorities and appeal of various investment scenarios. That feedback, which identified bike and pedestrian
facilities, public transportation, new roads or widening and pavement condition as the top public priorities, supplemented
PennDOT research to contribute to the draft report.
Feedback will be accepted through Monday, Dec. 15. In addition to online feedback, comments will be accepted by emailing
[email protected]( mailto:[email protected] )

PA On Track – Pennsylvania Long Range Transportation Plan and
Comprehensive Freight Movement Plan
Over the past two years, PennDOT has been working to complete a new statewide Long Range
Transportation Plan (LRTP) and Comprehensive Freight Movement Plan (CFMP) under the branding of
PA On Track. More information is available at www.paontrack.com.
The Draft PA LRTP was provided to MPOs/RPOs on November 6, and was made available to the public
on November 15 for a 30-day public comment period. PennDOT has requested that MPOs/RPOs assist
in the public review process by:
1. Providing comments on the Draft LRTP.
Comments will be accepted until 5:00 p.m., Monday, December 15, 2014. PennDOT will provide
responses to the comments on Monday, January 12, 2015.
2. Identifying candidate projects.
Comments will be accepted about candidate projects that should be included in the LRTP/CFMP.
Projects to be considered for the LRTP/CFMP list should be on or connected to the Multimodal
Economic Competiveness (MEC) Network, and must meet at least one of the following criteria:
•
•
•
Improves freight logistics and infrastructure to increase speed and efficiency for freight
moving into, out of, and through the state, ultimately benefitting the economy and
transportation flow.
Requires the use of discretionary (e.g. Spike funding) or legislative funding (e.g. general fund
assistance).
Crosses regional boundaries (e.g. States/MPOs/RPOs/PennDOT Districts/DCED PREP
Regions).
The following information (if known) should be provided for each project submitted for
consideration:
•
•
•
•
•
Detailed description of where the project is located (include a map, shapefiles preferred).
Explanation of why the project should be on the list and why it is regionally significant.
Explanation of the land use context and relationship to other modes (roadway, transit, rail,
air, ports, bicycle, pedestrian and other) in the area.
Actions needed to implement the project and an estimate of cost, if known.
Contact information for organization(s) or individuals familiar with the project.
3. Making the Draft LRTP available to the public.
Please note that a printed copy of the Draft LRTP is available for review in the SEDA-COG lobby;
the Draft LRTP and PA On Track website link are posted on SEDA-COG’s website; and a regional
spotlight news item about the Draft LRTP has been posted to SEDA-COG’s homepage.
Staff is reviewing the Draft LRTP, and will provide comments to PennDOT about the narrative elements
of the Plan by the close of the comment period. We will incorporate them into PennDOT’s clearance
transmittal spreadsheet; we welcome input from MPO members about the comments, and we would be
glad to echo any of your comments with the staff comments.
Staff has also identified the projects in the table below that could be submitted for consideration to be
included on the project list in the LRTP/CFMP. These projects are included on the current SEDA-COG
LRTP (as either fully funded projects or as illustrative projects), or have been raised as major priorities of
area stakeholders. The projects seem to meet the criteria to be considered for inclusion on the state’s
new LRTP/CFMP. MPO members are requested to provide comments about the candidate projects and
any others to include with a submission from the MPO to PennDOT.

How will the project prioritization process and actual projects selected for inclusion in PA On Track impact
funding decisions? For example, what bearing will they have on TIP approvals, Multimodal Transportation
Fund rounds, Rail Freight Assistance Program rounds, Capital Budget line items, Bureau of Aviation
grants, and so forth?

Department of Transportation Is Taking Actions to Address
Rail Safety, but Additional Actions Are Needed to Improve
Pipeline Safety
Why GAO Did This Study
What GAO Found
Technology advancements such as
horizontal drilling and hydraulic
fracturing (pumping water, sand, and
chemicals into wells to fracture
underground rock formations and allow
oil or gas to flow) have allowed
companies to extract oil and gas from
shale and other tight geological
formations. As a result, oil and gas
production has increased more than
fivefold from 2007 through 2012. DOT
Increased oil and gas production presents challenges for transportation
infrastructure because some of this increase is in areas with limited
transportation linkages. For example, insufficient pipeline capacity to transport
crude oil has resulted in the increased use of rail, truck, and barge to move oil to
refineries, according to government and industry studies and publications GAO
reviewed. These transportation limitations and related effects could pose
environmental risks and have economic implications. For instance, natural gas
produced as a byproduct of oil is burned—a process called flaring—by operators
due, in part, to insufficient pipelines in production areas. In a 2012 report, GAO
found that flaring poses a risk to air quality as it emits carbon dioxide, a
greenhouse gas linked to climate change, and other air pollutants. In addition,
flaring results in the loss of a valuable resource and royalty revenue.
GAO was asked to review oil and gas
transportation infrastructure issues.
This report examines (1) overall
challenges that increased oil and gas
production may pose for transportation
infrastructure, (2) specific pipeline
safety risks and how DOT is
addressing them, and (3) specific rail
safety risks and how DOT is
addressing them. GAO analyzed
federal transportation infrastructure
and safety data generally from 2008 to
2012 or 2013 (as available), reviewed
documents, and interviewed agency,
industry, and safety stakeholders, as
well as state and industry officials in
states with large-scale shale oil and
gas development.
Due to the increased oil and gas production, construction of larger, higherpressure gathering pipelines (pipelines that transport products to processing
facilities and other long-distance pipelines) has increased. However, these
pipelines, if located in rural areas, are generally not subject to U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT) safety regulations that apply to other pipelines, including
emergency response requirements. Historically, gathering pipelines were smaller
and operated at lower pressure and thus posed less risk than long-distance
pipelines. But the recent increase in their size and pressure raises safety
concerns because they could affect a greater area in the event of an incident. In
2011, DOT began a regulatory proceeding to address the safety risks of
gathering pipelines, but it has not proposed new regulations. Although states
may regulate gathering pipelines, an association of state pipeline regulators’
report on state pipeline oversight shows that most states do not currently
regulate gathering pipelines in rural areas.
oversees the safety of the U.S.
transportation system.
What GAO Recommends
DOT should move forward with a
proposed rulemaking to address safety
risks—including emergency response
planning—from newer gathering
pipelines. DOT generally concurred
with the recommendation and stated
that it is developing a rulemaking to
revise its pipeline safety regulations.

Crude oil carloads moved by rail in 2012 increased by 24 times over that moved
in 2008. Such an increase raises specific concerns about testing and packaging
of crude oil, use of unit trains (trains of about 80 to 120 crude oil cars), and
emergency response preparedness. Crude oil shippers are required to identify
their product’s hazardous properties, including flammability, before packaging the
oil in an authorized tank car. DOT has issued safety alerts on the importance of
proper testing and packaging of crude oil. However, industry stakeholders said
that DOT’s guidance on this issue is vague and that clarity about the type and
frequency of testing is needed. In July 2014, DOT proposed new regulations for
crude oil shippers to develop a product-testing program subject to DOT’s review.
Additionally, unit trains, which can carry 3 million or more gallons of crude oil and
travel to various locations through the country, are not covered under DOT’s
comprehensive emergency response planning requirements for transporting
crude oil by rail because the requirements currently only apply to individual tank
cars and not unit trains. This raises concerns about the adequacy of emergency
response preparedness, especially in rural areas where there may be fewer
resources to respond to a serious incident. Also in July 2014, DOT sought public
comment on potential options for addressing this gap in emergency response
planning requirements for transporting crude oil by rail.

News for Immediate Release
September 29, 2014
Public-Private Partnership Board Approves CNG Project for Public Transit, Private
Fleet Fueling
Harrisburg – Pennsylvania’s Public-Private Partnership (P3) Board today approved a
project seeking a private partner to develop clean-burning compressed natural gas (CNG)
fueling stations at public transit agencies around the state that would also provide public
access to the facilities.
“This is a tremendous opportunity for PennDOT and its transit-agency partners to team with
the private sector to take advantage of the state’s natural gas resources, save money and
improve our environment,” said PennDOT Secretary and P3 Board Chairman Barry J.
Schoch. “This is another example of the options we now have to expand or improve services
because Governor Corbett signed the P3 law.”
Through the project, the private partner will design, build, finance, operate and maintain
CNG filling stations at up to 37 transit facilities. Each fueling site must provide access to
CNG for public transit and other CNG vehicles alike.
In addition, PennDOT will enter into a CNG supply contract with the selected partner as well
as purchase agreements with each of the transit agencies. PennDOT would receive a portion
of the fuel sales revenue, with the money being returned to transit agencies to assist with
future capital projects.
To kick off the project, PennDOT will release a Request for Qualifications to solicit interested
parties and expects to invite qualified teams to submit proposals early next year. A project
team could be selected in summer 2015.
In September 2012, Corbett signed into law the Public and Private Partnerships for
Transportation Act, which authorized P3 projects in Pennsylvania. This law allows PennDOT
and other transportation authorities and commissions to partner with private companies to
participate in delivering, maintaining and financing transportation-related projects.
As part of the P3 law, the seven-member Public Private Transportation Partnership Board
was appointed to examine and approve potential public-private transportation projects. If
the board determines a state operation or project would be more cost-effectively
administered or delivered by a private company, the department or appropriate
transportation agency can advertise a competitive RFP and enter into a contract with a
company to completely or partially deliver the transportation-related service or project.
To learn more about P3 in Pennsylvania, visit www.P3forPA.pa.gov.
In 2013, Pennsylvania became the second-largest natural gas producing state in the nation.
The abundance of low-cost natural gas has driven electric and natural gas prices down
nearly 40 percent since 2008, saving the average Pennsylvania resident nearly $1,200
annually in lower energy costs. After importing 75 percent of its natural gas just five years
ago, Pennsylvania has become a net exporter of gas for the first time in more than 100
years.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
1.1.
Overview
PennDOT is pleased to present this RFQ to prospective entities or groups of entities (the “Proposer”)
interested in entering into an exclusive arrangement to provide the Required Project Services (the
“Project”).
PennDOT is the Commonwealth agency whose mission is to provide a safe intermodal transportation
system that attracts businesses and residents and stimulates the Pennsylvania economy. Act 89 of 2013
created a new deputate for multimodal transportation at PennDOT. PennDOT is responsible for programs
in the following areas: local and public transportation; rail freight; ports and waterways; and aviation and
airports. PennDOT is also responsible for the efficient management and administration of more than $1
billion in state and federal funds supporting public transportation services and infrastructure. PennDOT
continuously strives to: improve public transportation service and mobility options; maximize the benefits
of capital investment in public transportation; analyze and maximize productivity and efficiency in
partnership with all public transportation providers; increase safety, speed and ridership on
Pennsylvania’s passenger rail services; use improvements of rail stations and intermodal facilities to spur
economic development. During Fiscal Year 2012-13, Pennsylvania bus riders accounted for 435,496,595
fixed route trips. Currently in Pennsylvania, 523 fixed route buses or 16 percent of the transit fleet for the
Commonwealth runs on alternative fuels, including CNG, diesel equivalent and others.
As will be specified in PennDOT’s Phased CNG Fueling Implementation Plan for Transit Agencies (the
“CNG Fueling Implementation Plan”, a draft of which will be made available during the RFP phase to
Short-Listed Proposers for comment), Transit Agency participation in the Project will be phased across
four stages. These stages will be based on multiple factors, including fleet size, fleet age and the CNG
needs of particular Transit Agencies. At this time, PennDOT expects the participating Transit Agencies

PennDOT ultimately intends to select a Development Entity with experience in successfully
implementing and managing all aspects of the Required Project Services. PennDOT’s goal is to select a
highly qualified Development Entity that will provide the best value for, and whose selection will be in
the best interest of, the Commonwealth. The Department recognizes that Proposers may include firms
with experience managing large-scale CNG fueling program initiatives as well as those that specialize in
CNG fueling station infrastructure development and management. The successful Development Entity
shall coordinate with PennDOT, participating Transit Agencies and the FTA and comply with all
Commonwealth and federal laws and regulations.
PennDOT currently contemplates that the Development Entity will enter into a PPA with PennDOT
toprovide the Required Project Services..
The RFP will provide further details concerning the Development Entity’s obligations in respect of the
Required Project Services.
1.1.1.
Terms and Conditions of the PPA
Should a PPA result from this RFQ, it is the intent of PennDOT that the Development Entity shall
manage and perform all Required Project Services. Key conditions of the PPA currently anticipated by
PennDOT are described below. Such conditions and are subject to change.

The Marcellus Shale Impacts Study: Chronicling Social and
Economic Change in North Central and Southwest Pennsylvania
By:
Kathryn Brasier, Lisa Davis, Leland Glenna, Tim Kelsey, Diane McLaughlin, Kai Schafft, Kristin Babbie,
Catherine Biddle, Anne Delessio-Parson, and Danielle Rhubart
Pennsylvania State University
September 2014
Executive Summary
The Marcellus Shale is a natural gas-bearing geological formation that lies beneath portions of
Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, Maryland and West Virginia. Recent advances in hydraulic fracturing and
horizontal drilling technologies have increased the technical and economic feasibility of unconventional
gas extraction and led to rapid expansion of the industry in Pennsylvania. Between 2005 and mid-2013,
6,833 unconventional gas wells were drilled in the commonwealth (Pennsylvania Department of
Environmental Protection, 2013).
The development of the Marcellus Shale has created significant questions about the potential
implications for the commonwealth’s communities and natural environment.
This research is the first wave of a longitudinal project examining the impacts of Marcellus Shale
development in Pennsylvania. Overall, the research is exploring the social and economic impacts of
Marcellus Shale development in Pennsylvania, focusing on the experiences of four study counties Bradford, Greene, Lycoming, and Washington - with very high levels of natural gas extraction and
related activities.
This phase of the study focused on aggregate change in the four study counties. It examined countylevel indicators of change related to population, housing, local economies, crime, health and healthcare
access, K-12 education, agriculture and local governments. It also examined the experiences of youth
and low-income residents in communities with shale-based development.
Overall, the research had four goals: (1) Identify and document indicators of economic, social,
institutional and infrastructural change related to Marcellus Shale development; (2) Analyze collected
data to understand and interpret trends in relation to drilling activity and in comparison to historical and
current regional, state and national trends; (3) Describe the experiences of critical populations and
institutions relative to activity level; and (4) Examine and evaluate strategies communities have used to
effectively manage change.
Page | 1
To achieve these goals, the researchers: formed topical advisory committees to provide background
information about the topics; gathered publicly available data and performed descriptive analyses
related to each topic; and conducted focus groups with representatives of agencies and organizations
related to health, housing and human services, K-12 education, economic development and local
businesses, agriculture, and local government. They also conducted additional focus groups with highschool youth.
The results from this phase of the study are available in nine topical reports, which are described
below.
 Report #1: Population Change and Marcellus Shale Development. The analysis indicated that
patterns of population change varied across the study counties, and that the associations with
Marcellus Shale development are not clear.
 Report #2: The Impact of Marcellus Shale Development on Health and Health Care. Very few
indicators in health or healthcare service delivery changed in relation to Marcellus Shale
development, with the exception of increases in the number of complaints logged by
responding emergency medical service personnel. Focus group data indicate increased
demands on human service providers, including mental and behavioral health services. Many
of the workers associated with the natural gas industry have employer-provided insurance,
but that coverage is valid in other states and may not transfer to local areas.
 Report #3: Marcellus Shale Gas Development and Impacts on Pennsylvania Schools and
Education. The analyses indicated very little change in enrollment, student demographics, and
student outcomes associated with Marcellus Shale development. Drop-out rates were not
changed either, although focus group data suggest the potential that industry-associated
opportunities may affect post-secondary educational aspirations of youth.
 Report #4: Youth Perspectives on Marcellus Shale Gas Development: Community Change and
Future Prospects. Youth described their views on the effects of the natural gas industry on
their home communities; safety concerns about traffic and road conditions; destruction of
natural areas; uncertainty about the impacts of the industry on their communities now and in
the future; and relatively low interest in working for the industry. Most of the participants had
at least ambivalent feelings about the changes they had seen taking place in their
communities.
 Report #5: Housing and Marcellus Shale Development. The share of housing that was owneroccupied, rental or vacant varied more in counties with smaller populations and more limited
housing stocks prior to Marcellus development. The median value of owner-occupied housing
increased in the study counties more than the state average during the period of Marcellus
Shale development. Focus group participants described the use of temporary housing by both
natural gas workers and low-income families, displacement of local people from existing
housing, and increased homelessness among low-income individuals and families.
 Report #6: Effects of Marcellus Shale Development on the Criminal Justice System. The
analyses showed relatively little change in most indicators, with the exception of increased
rates of calls for service for which the Pennsylvania State Police responded, arrests for driving
The Center for Rural Pennsylvania
Page | 2
under the influence, and traffic violations in counties with high levels of Marcellus Shale
activity.
 Report #7: Local Government and Marcellus Shale Development. Analysis of the county audit
data through 2011 did not show clear effects of natural gas development on local government
budgets. Local officials raised concerns related to impacts on roads from truck traffic, housing
problems, their lack of preparation for the growth of the industry, and a lack of transparency
by the natural gas industry. They reported spending impact fee dollars on new equipment or
new infrastructure to replace what has been damaged, directly or indirectly, by drilling.
 Report #8: Local Economic Impacts Related to Marcellus Shale Development. Counties with
the highest levels of drilling activity generally experienced increased business activity,
employment, and wages. During the study period, the number of residents working increased
only modestly, suggesting that many of the new jobs that had been created were going to
non-residents who either commuted into the county or were living there temporarily.
 Report #9: Establishing a Baseline for Measuring Agricultural Changes Related to Marcellus
Shale Development. Focus group data with farmers and representatives of agricultural
services and businesses brought out the following themes: shortages in some farm inputs
(e.g., lime) and difficulty of retaining farm labor due to Marcellus development; the ability of
farmers to use lease and royalty income to stay in business and reinvest in their operations;
changes in the types of operations (such as dairy to beef); intergenerational property transfer;
mistrust of natural gas companies; lack of monitoring and company accountability;
uncertainty about environmental impacts; uncertainty about long-term impacts; and
conflicting views about the impacts on quality of life.
Additionally, the research documented strategies used by individuals, farms, businesses, local health,
housing and human service agencies, and school districts to adapt to changes brought on by Marcellus
Shale development. These include more consistent use of legal expertise and consultation, monitoring
and management of well development activity, development of new products and business
opportunities, and collaboration and planning across geographic and organizational boundaries. The
research identified several themes that were discussed by focus group participants but were not specific
to an individual topical report. These include community conflict and divisions, unequal distribution of
the benefits and costs of development, concerns about the quality of life in their communities, and
concerns about water quality.
There were a number of limitations to this research. First, the publicly available data are measured at
the county level, and are aggregate indicators at specific points in time. As such, they cannot provide
measures of the components that make up those aggregate data. Second, while county level analyses
are useful to identify overall effects, county level data do not capture more localized data points. Third,
the analyses cannot establish causality but rather assess an association in time. There are relatively few
data points during Marcellus Shale activity, and the data that were identified were not specific to
Marcellus Shale. Finally, it is difficult to define Marcellus Shale activity and who is part of the industry.
Page | 3
The researchers provided three overall policy considerations, as well as considerations related to each
of the topics studied. The first overall policy consideration is to increase capacity to identify problematic
change and implement collaborative strategies to respond as quickly as possible. The second overall
policy consideration is to increase capacity to identify and collaboratively plan for future expected and
unexpected change, thus improving the ability to take advantage of opportunities and minimize risks
and problems associated with change. The final policy consideration relates to improving the data
available to identify and understand changes. These considerations apply to Pennsylvania communities
affected by Marcellus Shale development, but also to those impacted by other types of change, such as
suburban sprawl, economic change, or population decline.
As stated previously, this research is the first wave of a longitudinal project describing the impacts of
Marcellus Shale development in Pennsylvania. This phase focused on aggregate change in the study
counties. However, one of the main lessons from this phase of the project is the need to examine the
distribution of the risks and opportunities across communities and populations and over time. Tracking
these changes over time can assist with identifying ways in which shorter-term gains can be leveraged
into strategic and longer term planning that will maximize the opportunities for Pennsylvania’s social,
economic and environmental sustainability, both now and in the future. The systematic gathering and
analysis over time of local, regional and state-level data will be critical in generating information that
local stakeholders and state policymakers will need to effectively respond to these new and often
unprecedented challenges and opportunities.

Re: Comments on 2014 Green Light-Go Application from Danville Borough
Dear Mr. Farley:
I am writing to offer comments on the 2014 Green Light-Go Program application
from Danville Borough. Please be aware that this applicant’s signal retiming and
synchronization project represents a high priority for the SEDA-COG Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO).
Increasing mobility of people and for freight by reducing congestion and improving
efficiency of existing traffic signals are key objectives of the MPO and its Long Range
Transportation Plan (LRTP) and Regional Operations Plan. The MPO acknowledges
that Danville Borough is a core community for the entire 8-county region and the
Bloomsburg-Berwick Urbanized Area. Danville Borough experiences acute vehicular
congestion due to its location at the intersection of two principal arterials (US 11 and
SR 54) and as a result of heavy traffic volumes attracted to Geisinger Health System
facilities in Danville Borough and adjacent Mahoning Township.
According to the Census Bureau’s 2006-2010 American Community Survey 5-year
estimates, Danville Borough had a daytime population increase of 3,418 people due to
work-related commuting (or a 73% increase over the borough’s total resident
population); comparable increases were estimated for Mahoning Township (3,295
people and 79%). The significant commuter flows, combined with out-of-synch
traffic signals, create significant congestion during the AM and PM peaks.
Comprehensive retiming and synchronization of the signals within Danville Borough
should cost effectively reduce congestion, enhance mobility, reduce greenhouse gases,
and improve safety for motorists and pedestrians. The project intent and benefits
have also been widely supported by the SEDA-COG MPO members and planning
staff from Montour County. The SEDA-COG MPO therefore endorses approval of
Danville Borough’s 2014 Green Light-Go application for the critical corridor and
designated corridor signals, and stands ready to offer planning and programming
support to facilitate the project’s design and implementation.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

2
Q.
A.
Will PennDOT solicit input from county organizations and counties when developing
the guidelines?
Yes.
Q.
A.
When will the funds be distributed to counties?
Tentatively on June 1 and December 1.
Q.
A.
How will the funds be distributed to counties?
Tentatively similar to county liquid fuel funds. Liquid fuel funds may not be
commingled with other funds. Thus, fee for local use funds will be distributed in
addition to liquid fuel funds, not in the same transaction.
Q.
Must the counties maintain fee for local use funds in an account separate from
county liquid fuel funds?
Yes.
A.
Q.
A.
How can counties use the funds?
Counties can use the funds for transportation purposes or allocate them to political
subdivisions within the county in accordance with Section 9010(c) of the Vehicle
Code, subject to constitutional limitations.
Q.
A.
What does Section 9010(c) of the Vehicle Code provide?
Section 9010(c) allows funds to be apportioned to political subdivisions within the
county through a formula based on road mileage and population.
Q.
Can counties distribute fee for local use funds to municipalities and other
governmental entities through an application process?
Yes, such a process is anticipated to be allowed under the guidelines as long as
the municipality or other governmental entity uses the funds for permitted
transportation purposes.
A.
Q.
A.
Q.
A.
Can counties distribute fee for local use funds to non-profit corporations through
an application process?
Yes, such a process is anticipated to be allowed under the guidelines as long as the
non- profit corporation uses the funds for permitted transportation purposes, e.g. the
creation of highway and bridge planning studies.
What constitutional limitations apply to use of the funds?
Article 8, Section 11 of the Pennsylvania Constitution restricts the diversion of proceeds
from vehicle registration fees. Such funds may only be used for construction,
reconstruction, maintenance and repair of and safety on public highways and bridges and
costs and expenses incident thereto. Fee for local use funds consequently can
constitutionally only be used by counties, or political subdivisions within a county
if distributed by a county under Section 9010(c), for construction, reconstruction,
maintenance and repair of and safety on public highways and bridges and costs and
expenses incident thereto.
3
Q.
A.
Can the fee be used for transit purposes?
No. Transit is not a highway or bridge purpose within the confines of Article 8, Section
11.
Q.
A.
Are the uses for the fees limited to those in Section 9010(b) of the Vehicle Code
addressing allowable uses for county liquid fuel funds?
No. Although those uses would be constitutional uses, the phrase transportation purposes
used in Section 1935 reflects that other constitutional uses are also permissible. Further
information will be provided in the guidelines.
Q.
A.
Can the fee be used to meet match requirements in Department highway projects?
Yes, the Department expects to allow this use under the guidelines.
Q.
A.
Can the fee be used to meet match requirements in Department multimodal projects?
Yes, the Department expects to allow this use under the guidelines if distributed to
a municipality eligible for multimodal funding.
Q.
A.
Can the fee be used for the construction of sounds walls?
Yes in some instances. The Department expects to allow this use under the guidelines if
included in a highway project as a mitigation measure for environmental purposes and
all warrants are met. This would be consistent with the use of Motor License Funds for
such projects.
Q.
A.
Can the fee be used for trail projects?
Yes in some instances. The Department expects to allow this use under the guidelines for
the portions of trails that are located within highway right of way. This would be
consistent with the use of Motor License Funds for such projects.
Can the fee be used for right of way acquisition?
Yes in some instances. The Department expects to allow this use under the guidelines
when for a highway or bridge purpose. This would be consistent with the use of Motor
License Funds for right of way acquisition.
Q.
A.
Q.
A.
Can the fee be used as repayment for Pennsylvania Infrastructure Bank loans?
Yes.
Q.
A.
Can the fee be used as security for Pennsylvania Infrastructure Bank loans?
Yes.
Q.
A.
Will counties be subject to design requirements in relation to the funds?
Yes, tentatively similar to those applicable to county liquid fuels funds although the
provisions of Section 9010(b) do not explicitly apply.
Q.
A.
Will counties be subject to recordkeeping and reporting requirements for the funds?
4
Q.

Note 1. The registration counts exclude vehicles that are exempted from fees where this can be
identified by indicators on PennDOT’s vehicle database; those vehicles that can’t be identified are
not excluded. Vehicles are exempted by the following Sections of Title 75:
• Title 75 Section 1901(a), 1901(b) and 1901(c) – Exemption of persons, entities and vehicles
from fees.
• Title 75 Section 1302 – Vehicles exempt from registration.
• Title 75 Section 1335(c) - Registration plates for manufacturers and dealers.
(Refer to the specific Sections for all exemptions.)
See Attachment A below for a list of vehicles that can be identified.
Note 2. There is no way to determine all exempt vehicles from the vehicle data base; for example,
special organizations such as the boy scouts must re-certify each year that their vehicles are exempt.
Note 3. The registration counts represent the vehicles on the Department vehicle registration system
at a specific time (in this case October 19, 2014). This data changes daily as people purchase and sell
vehicles, and as they move from one address to another.

Uber gets OK for much of Pennsylvania, not
Philly

Drivers with the Taxi Workers Alliance of Pennsylvania protest on near Love Park
in Philadelphia Oct. 8, 2014, as Uber and Lyft are making a concerted push to
bring their ride-share services to Philadelphia. The state's Public Utility
Commission is expected to vote Thursday Nov. 13, 2014 on Uber X's application
to operate in many other parts of Pennsylvania.

PHILADELPHIA — The ride-sharing service Uber X won an experimental license Thursday to arrange
private rides throughout much of Pennsylvania, a victory that came with a warning "to abandon its
anarchist ways" and comply with state regulators.
The state's Public Utility Commission said the taxi industry needed innovation, but it called Uber X's twoyear license a "last chance" for the company — which once defied an agency cease-and-desist order —
to cooperate.
"Innovation alone is no excuse for ignoring the law, any more than a new and innovative way to rob banks
should be encouraged and condoned," said PUC board member John H. Cawley, who reluctantly voted
yes.

The 4-1 vote will allow the smartphone app-based service to provide cars in the Pittsburgh area and
across much of the state, but not in Philadelphia, where the city's oft-feared parking authority regulates
taxis.
The Philadelphia Parking Authority has been sparring with Uber X drivers, impounding cars and issuing
$1,000 fines. The agency considers them unlicensed cabbies because they do not have taxi medallions,
which can run as much as a half-million dollars.
Uber has muscled its way onto taxicabs' turf across the country, sparking similar controversies in Las
Vegas, Chicago and Miami as regulators try to decide how, or if, the company should operate. The taxi
industry, meanwhile, has fought back to try to protect its drivers' livelihoods. Critics have complained that
Uber is skirting safety, insurance, pricing and other regulations.
"The rules and regulations out there, they were built decades ago," Uber X spokesman Taylor Bennett
said this week. "We've been trying to craft new regulations that actually apply to this business model, that
welcome more choice into the city, and give people opportunities to start their own companies."
The company started about four years ago in San Francisco and now operates in 230 cities worldwide. In
Nevada, Uber X has faced fierce opposition from the state's huge taxi industry, and some cars were
impounded in state stings. A judge last month, though, refused the state attorney general's attempt to
shut down the service.
The Pennsylvania license covers everywhere but Philadelphia and a few counties excluded from Uber's
application: Beaver, Clinton, Columbia, Crawford, Lawrence, Lycoming, Mercer, Northumberland and
Union.
Bennett said the company hopes to work with Pennsylvania lawmakers and regulators "to get the details
right" and continue to offer ridesharing.
Riders use Uber's smartphone app to seek out independent drivers using their own cars. Uber does not
own the vehicles or employ the drivers but instead "partners" with them and takes 20 percent of their
earnings.
The Uber X service started in Philadelphia in recent weeks despite failed talks to win approval from
Fenerty's agency. Uber has been paying the drivers' fines, Bennett said.
"Uber has no license to be here. They're operating as hack cabs," parking authority director Vincent
Fenerty said Wednesday. "If the Legislature changed the law, where people could ride-share, and set the
proper guidelines ... the PPA would abide by (that)."
The cheaper Uber X service is a recent addition to the company's array of services. "Uber Black" and
"Uber SUV" drivers have been operating legally with limousine licenses for about two years in
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and elsewhere.
"Let me put it in plain English, Uber," Cawley said. "This is your last chance with this commission ... to
abandon its anarchist ways and to finally become a responsible, lawful corporate citizen."
