Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2010 Rail Line Relocation - Coos County Rail Safety Upgrades grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FR LRI 10 003) was a discretionary Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) grant under the U.S. Department of Transportation focused on transportation infrastructure improvements in Coos County, New Hampshire. The purpose of the funding was straightforward: rehabilitate existing railroad track in New Hampshire, with an emphasis on rail safety upgrades tied to rail line relocation and improvement activities. The assistance listing (CFDA) associated with the program was 20.320, Rail Line Relocation and Improvement, which is typically used for projects that reduce the impacts of rail lines on communities and improve safety and efficiency through targeted rail infrastructure work.
The opportunity anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $800,000. The award ceiling was also set at $800,000, meaning the maximum available for the project matched the full estimated funding amount, while the award floor was listed as $0. The funding instrument was a grant, and the opportunity included a cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would be expected to contribute non-federal funds or other eligible match in accordance with the program rules (the posting does not specify the match percentage in the summary data provided, but it clearly indicates that matching was required).
Eligibility was highly restricted. Only the New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT) was eligible to apply, even though the general eligible applicant category is shown as "Others" with a note to see additional eligibility information for clarification. In practice, this was effectively a single-applicant competition limited to NHDOT, reflecting a targeted project in a specific location rather than an open national solicitation.
Key timeline information shows the opportunity was posted on March 18, 2010, originally set to close on March 31, 2010, and later extended with a current closing date of July 2, 2010. The record lists an archive date of August 1, 2010. The creation date in the provided data is June 18, 2010, which likely reflects an internal update or record creation in the system rather than the initial public posting date.
