Executive Summary
Amendment
#1
This amendment will be for the purchase replacement

5339 Bus & Bus Facilities formula grant program under the
FAST Act.

replaced will be determined based on their condition when the new
vehicles arrive at PSTA (selection of our 2003 vehicle fleet).
PSTA is a member of a bus buy consortium and will be

of the purchase through the Lynx contract the RFP and award dates
will not match the dates for the STIP or the start date of the
grant. The procurement strategy has been identified and grantee
has substantiated cost estimates, referenced/acknowledged
compliance with FTA third party procurement circular 4220.1F.

Amendment
#1
The funds in ALI 11.12.02 will be used by PSTA to
purchase approximately 2 - 35` Gillig hybrid buses to replace
a selection of 2003 vehicles that are currently out of useful
life.
The replacement vehicle list is attached to
the grant. The vehicle that will be replaced will be
determined based on their condition when the new vehicles
arrive at PSTA.
The buses are 35` heavy duty
vehicles with a useful life of 12 years or 500,000
miles.
The vehicles will be a low floor design for
easy accessibility, interior/exterior cameras, real time Bus
information (RTBI) for Security, LED lighting, fareboxes,
vapor photo sensor, and bike racks to facilitate intermodal
travel opportunities.
Each bus is estimated to be
$740,000 for an estimated total cost of $1,480,000.
Additional funds in this ALI will be used to cover expenses
related to the purchase of replacement buses, which will
include but not limited to: buses, inspections, travel,
training and any additional equipment that is needed. If the
vehicle price is lower PSTA may be able to purchase an
additional vehicle with the grant funding available. If any
funds are remaining they will be applied to future bus
purchases.
=======================
PSTA is a member
of a bus buy consortium and we will purchase using the Lynx
(Orlando) contract through the consortium. Because of the
purchase through the Lynx contract the RFP and award dates
will not match the dates for the STIP or the start date of
the
grant.
_______________________________________________________________________________
The
funds in ALI 11.12.02 will be used by PSTA to purchase 3 -
35` Gillig hybrid buses. If PSTA is awarded funding under the
Section 5339 Discretionary grant, the new vehicle will
replace a selection of 2003 vehicles that are currently out
of useful life.
The replacement vehicle list is
attached to the grant. The vehicle that will be replaced will
be determined based on their condition when the new vehicles
arrive at PSTA.

travel opportunities.
Each bus is estimated to be
$752,000 for an estimated total cost of $2,256,000.
Additional funds in this ALI will be used to cover expenses
related to the purchase of replacement buses, which will
include but not limited to: buses, inspections, travel,

(CEs) which are known not to have, either individually or
cumulatively, a significant environmental impact on the
human or natural environment and are therefore

environmental assessment or an environmental impact
statement. Class II(c) does not require documentation.
|
Categorical

replacement, and maintenance of vehicles or equipment,
within or accommodated by existing facilities, that does
not result in a change in functional use of the
facilities, such as: equipment to be located within
existing facilities and with no substantial off-site
impacts; and vehicles, including buses, rail cars, trolley
cars, ferry boats and people movers that can be
accommodated by existing facilities or by new facilities
that qualify for a categorical exclusion.
