PRESENTATIONS
Director’s Report – MDOT Director Kirk Steudle
Federal Update
Director Steudle stated that the Aeronautics Commission held a legislative open house on
March 21, 2012. He stated that he was unable to attend; however, Mr. Trout will be giving
him an update on the open house. He stated that there was a lot of discussion on both
transportation reform and transportation funding. Director Steudle stated that they are
routinely seeing a pattern reflecting that reforms will lead the way. Legislators want to see
reform first. The department is finding ways to be better and more efficient, focusing on
being as efficient as possible and adopting as many innovations as possible, and then be
ready for additional revenue and invest it wisely.
Director Steudle discussed that the current Authorization will expire on March 31, 2012,
which will affect the collection of the federal motor fuel tax that is about $110 million per
day.
He stated that the Senate approved legislation with bipartisan support of
74 to 22. The House completed committee work, but the bill has not passed. The House bill
does not have bipartisan support and they are currently regrouping.
DRAFT Joint Meeting STC and MAC
1
The Senate version is a two-year bill, retroactive to the prior six-months, essentially making
it an 18-month bill. It maintains current funding plus a little inflation. There are no earmarks
in it and it includes reforms with a significant amount of performance measures.
The House bill is a Five-year bill that maintains funding at a reduced rate, about $3 million
less than fiscal year 2012 levels. It has no earmarks, but it does have performance measures
and provides greater flexibility to the states on how to best spend the money. This bill took
the transit bill and put it in another committee. This sounded good except it lost all of the
transit supporters so it is now back in the highway bill. The House will not take the bill up
until Mid-April 2012, meaning an extension will be needed. This means that the department
may have 35 percent less projects out this fiscal year. From a planning perspective, in the
same year you have the President’s proposal that doubles the amount, one that maintains it,
and one that cuts it by a third. There are seven months left in the fiscal year and it is
uncertain if that budget will be doubled or a third less than what it is currently.
MI Transportation Plan
Director Steudle discussed the MI Transportation Plan Revisions. He stated that since the
reauthorization of the highway program could change the requirements, this revision is an
interim step to keep the plan current and will follow a more streamlined approach than a
more complete update. The process involves a technical review, consultation, and public
involvement. This revision will be developed by providing updates in the form of white
papers to our existing technical reports as needed, inclusion of new plans since
the MI Transportation Plan’s adoption, and reaffirming strategies. MI Transportation Plan’s
trends and demographic data will be revised to extend out to 2035, providing the minimum
20-year horizon required by Federal regulation. The Public Involvement Plan is out for
Public Comment until April 30, 2012.
Director Steudle stated that a full update will be scheduled at a future time, probably in
August or September of 2012, in response to new requirements that may result from
reauthorization of the highway program.
Director Steudle asked if the Commissioners had any questions.
STC Commissioner Hayes asked what the federal allocation was for highways and transit.
He stated he recalled that highways received $.95 on the dollar and $.89 on the dollar for
transit.
Director Steudle stated that it is actually $.43 cents on the dollar for transit, most of which
goes to those states with big urban transit systems. Without Michigan having a robust transit
system in Southeast Michigan, the State is losing out on that money and until we have a
Regional Transit system in Southeast Michigan we are unlikely to get it.
Director Steudle stated that the highway allocation is around $.92 to $.93 on the dollar. The
Senate bill takes care of the equity bonus that actually guarantees that every state gets $.95
cents per dollar. There have been some provisions and there is an amendment that states
every State will get back what they put in, but that amendment failed.
DRAFT Joint Meeting STC and MAC

Chairman Jung asked how the development of the Regional Transit Authority in Southeast
Michigan is progressing.
Director Steudle stated that it is coming along well. It did hit a bump a few weeks ago but it
is believed that it has been worked out and expected to move within the Senate Committee
soon. It is high priority of the Governor and expected to move forward.
Aeronautics’ Report – Office of Aeronautics Director Mike Trout
Mr. Trout’s discussed the Aeronautics Commission, the Office of Aeronautics and its
programs, and the Aviation Funding and Reauthorization.
Mr. Trout stated that the Aeronautics Code was established in 1945, establishing the
Aeronautics Commission whose focus is to encourage, foster, and promote aviation. In the
past 8 to 9 months Chairman Kavalhuna has established a General Aviation Committee that
is diverse and will provide a lot of input to Aeronautics and assist in getting the MAC’s
message out to the public.
Mr. Trout discussed the aviation partners and the relationship that has been built with those
groups. It also includes communities and Michigan’s citizens, providing them with an
aeronautics system that can lead to their success.
Mr. Trout discussed the significant impact Michigan airports have on Michigan’s economy.
There are 235 licensed airports in Michigan with almost half being privately owned. The
passenger counts and the cargo numbers are strong indicators of the economy. Detroit Metro
Airport is the 15th largest airport in the United States, the 17th busiest in the world, and rated
the #1 airport in the world by JD Power in 2010. He stated that in addition to passengers,
airports provide a lot of benefit to the communities they serve. There is a full range of how
global companies are using Michigan airports for their businesses.
Mr. Trout discussed the reinvention of the Office of Aeronautics and stated that everything
Aeronautics does is focused on the department’s strategic plan and the goals within it. The
product of that is the scorecard and different measuring systems. He stated that Aeronautics
now consists of three sections, with main function being project development and Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) grants. Aeronautics also provides flights and processes
permits, along with education and outreach.
He discussed the National Plan for Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) which is the tool that
identifies those airports that are eligible to received federal funds. He also discussed the
Michigan Airport System Plan (MASP) that was developed to set the focus on investments
and preservation. It is set up by tiers with approximately 97% of the investment going to
bigger airports; however, it is still important to look at the other tiers because it supports the
entire system.
The Reauthorization increases the local match going to 10% instead of 5%, which will have a
significant impact, especially on smaller communities. Most will be able to meet the
increase, while for others, it will be a challenge.
DRAFT Joint Meeting STC and MAC

In the next few years, you will be hearing a lot about the Next Generation Air Transportation
System (NextGen). NextGen transforms the current air traffic control system from a groundbased system to a satellite-based system. Part of the discussion deals with the unmanned air
traffic vehicles known as Drones. The Drones will be tested, with a group in Michigan trying
to attack one of the test sights. The Passenger Facility Charge’s (PFCs) have had changes to
the provisions and now medium and large hub airports can charge $7 that may incentivize
services at these airports.
He stated that historically, Michigan has received $80 to $100 million from the FAA Airport
Improvement Program and that we have budgeted to cover the match. With the non-federal
share growing, that amount will not be sufficient, requiring us to double what will be needed.
The current budget allows for that, but it will be difficult to go beyond a couple of years.
Mr. Trout discussed Essential Air Service (EAS) funding stating that that more than half of
the airports are receiving airport subsidies, so it is important to work closely with those
airport communities to assist in meeting their needs. EAS funding benefited approximately
150,000 passengers in 2010.
There would be significant detrimental impacts to the
communities if the EAS is reduced or eliminated.
Mr. Trout discussed the Airport Safety and Protection Plan (ASAP), a $60 million bond
program, provided funds for the local match from 2003 to 2007 and allowed for projects that
don’t rise to the FAA priority level requirements. It focused on preservation and pavement
rehabilitation. The bonds are paid off from the parking tax at the Detroit Metro Airport that
generates $6 million. Debt service comes off the top and the rest is used for the local match.
With debt service slowly increasing, additional stress will be placed on the ability to match
grants.
Mr. Trout discussed the 2013 and 2014 appropriation estimates. Total revenues are expected
to be $18 million in 2013 and $13 million in 2014. In 2014 there is no revenue in the Aero
Fund Reserve. Expenses are estimated at $17.8 million in 2013 and $13 in 2014. In 2013,
the Air Service Program will receive an additional $600,000. He also stated that MDOT’s
Five-Year program invests $838 million over the next five years, but in order to stay on
schedule, annual investments of $160 to $170 million are needed. At current levels there will
be approximately $50 million in annual shortfall.
Mr. Trout briefly discussed Delta Airlines, stating that they reported $854 million in net
income, up 44 percent from 2010. Their revenue was up by 11 percent while fuel costs rose
28 percent. They are also continuing to cut flights by two to three percent. As the airlines
become more efficient, fuel consumption is less, which results in less state revenue.
Mr. Trout discussed the Michigan business tax structure, stating that it is very promising.
The business climate is improving in Michigan, which is a good message that Michigan is
coming back. We still need to find creative solutions to the funding problems.
He reported that relative to the Next Michigan Development Corporation, two new
designations were recently approved, I-69 and Grand Traverse This will transform these
areas into centers of economic development and hubs for commerce and freight logistics.
DRAFT Joint Meeting STC and MAC

Aeronautics creates thousands of jobs. Our role is to ensure investments are focused on
enhancing safety and supporting communities. He stated it is important to understand that
solutions can be found to work on what can be done faster, cheaper, and more effectively.
Mr. Trout opened the floor to questions.
STC Commissioner Hayes asked about the impacts of security and security issues.
Mr. Trout stated that there is no direct impact on what Aeronautics does. Pertaining to the
big picture at larger airports, the increased security measures do impact the airports.
STC Commissioner Hayes asked about the responsibility around the immediate airspace for
the smaller airports.
Mr. Trout stated that they do focus on fencing, but it is very expensive. As for airspace, they
are more concerned about what may go into the airspace and the traffic within the airspace.
MAC Commissioner Collins stated that in smaller airports, it is fencing, airspace security,
and pass codes, etc. However, the burden is in the protocol established. The corporate pilot
knows his manifest and who is boarding the airplane.
Mr. Trout added that the aviation community is more aware. Still it is amazing how many
vehicles have access to driving onto the runways. The primary focus is with fencing and
gates, but the costs can be up to $1 million just for fencing one small airport.
MAC Chair Kavalhuna discussed the aviation fuel tax and that it is outdated.
Mr. Trout stated that the 3 percent fuel tax has been in place since 1929. With the amount of
gallons used going down, it is becoming a problem.
MAC Chair Kavalhuna asked about the fuel tax and incentives larger airlines like Delta
receive.
Mr. Trout stated that yes; the larger airlines do receive incentives. They actually get half of
the tax back, reducing their tax to 1.5 percent. The bigger airlines pay 50 percent less in tax.
MAC Chair Kavalhuna asked if there was legislation being discussed to address that problem
Mr. Trout stated that yes; it looks at redirecting some of the sales tax. If that occurs the
excise tax could be reduced or removed.

were let. In comparison to March of 2011, 62 State projects were let with a total engineers’
estimate of $172.6 million and total low bid dollars of $163.1 million. Mr. Frierson stated
there are currently 15 State projects that are to-be-advertised.
The number of State trunkline projects anticipated to be let during FY 2012 is 327 with a
total construction cost estimate of $735.1 million. representing 45.9% of the total number
of projects anticipated to be let and 44.3% of the total cost projection for fiscal year 2012.
In comparison through March of 2011, 175 State projects with a total engineers’ estimate
of $491.7 million were let representing 51.8% of the total number of projects anticipated to
be let in FY 2011 for this period and 60.3% of the anticipated construction cost.
Leading up to and including the March 2, 2012, bid letting, 56.4% of the number of
projects anticipated for this period was let, and of the projected construction cost
estimated, 58.1% was let. For this same period through March 2011, 71.1% of the number
of projects anticipated was let and 95.6% of the projected construction cost estimate was

Commissioner Hayes asked what happens if the lettings are that far behind and once
lettings start happening more quickly can it be handled and can the actual projects be
completed.
State Transportation Commission
March 22, 2012 Draft STC Minutes
Page 3
Mr. Frierson stated that the department can handle it, but from an engineering standpoint
the projects have to be reevaluated to see if they can be constructed within the original
timeframes. Sometimes, they may have to be pushed into two construction seasons.
Currently, some projects have been shifted that are more significant to ensure they are
completed within this construction season.
Commissioner Rothwell stated that once the federal funding issue is resolved, then the
department will come back to the STC to provide information on the full impacts of
pushing those projects out.
Director Steudle stated that the department went back and reevaluated all of the projects,
looking at the planned projects that to be let this construction season and then those that
are critical and absolutely had to go forward. The best time to be working is June and July,
still working on contract awards pushes the construction phase out and into potentially bad
weather in the Fall. Typically, at this time 95 percent of the money is obligated and the
department is only at 50 percent, shifting projects further into Fall that could result in
quality issues. Staff is putting the best projects forward to address the issues.
Chairman Jung entertained a motion. Motion was made by Commissioner Atkinson and
supported by Commissioner Rothwell to approve Exhibit A-1. Motion carried on a
unanimous voice vote.

EXHIBIT A-3 INFORMATION ONLY
Tim Hoeffner provided information on Exhibit A-3, an upcoming waiver request for
approval on an amendatory contract between MDOT and Norfolk southern. He provided
the Commissioners with a review of the department’s rail program. He stated the contract
will provide for Norfolk Southern to perform additional track stabilization and
maintenance work that will increase the contract amount by $3,920,197.
Mr. Hoeffner stated that last year Norfolk Southern implemented speed restrictions on
some of their railways. At the beginning on March 2012, Norfolk Southern informed
MDOT that they were going to lower the speeds on additional pieces of rail, which directly
impacts the high-speed rail projects. Most of the work in the amendatory contract was
already planned; it just puts the work ahead of what was previously planned. Norfolk will
be performing additional track stabilization and maintenance work that will extend the
contract term by approximately seven months, allowing sufficient time to complete the
additional work. They will perform track stabilization and maintenance work on six
additional sections of Norfolk Southern-owned track between the cities of Kalamazoo and
Dearborn. The original contract provided for this work on only two section of Norfolk
Southern-owned track.
Commissioner Hayes stated that if the lines are shut down for 8 hours, will passengers be
notified so they do not have to wait.
Mr. Hoeffner stated that yes, notice will be given.
Director Steudle stated that there are three roundtrips per day that Wolverine provides and
asked what the impact would be on that service.
Mr. Hoeffner stated that it will be a major impact on the Wolverine service.

PASSENGER TRANSPORTATION - Section 5311 Capital Program
Project Authorization Revision (Z4/R2) under Master Agreement (2007-0205) between MDOT and the
Eaton County Transportation Authority (EATRAN) will extend the authorization term by nine months
to provide sufficient time for EATRAN to complete the facility construction project. The project was
delayed because review and approval of the third party agreement took longer than anticipated;
however, the project is now underway. The original authorization provides state matching funds for the
FY 2008 Federal Section 5311 Nonurbanized Area Formula Capital and Category D Economic
Development Fund Program grant. The revised authorization term will be September 15, 2008, through
March 14, 2013. The authorization amount remains unchanged at $175,000. The term of the master
agreement is from October 1, 2006, until the last obligation between the parties has been fulfilled. The
master agreement includes authorizations for program years FY 2007 through FY 2011. Source of
Funds: Federal Transit Administration Funds - $140,000; FY 2008 State Restricted Comprehensive
Transportation Funds - $35,000.

PASSENGER TRANSPORTATION - Section 5311/STP/Small Cities Programs
Project Authorization Revision (Z13/R1) under Master Agreement (2007-0290) between MDOT and the
Shiawassee Area Transportation Agency (SATA) will reduce state funding by $607, add local funding
of $607, and adjust funding among the line items. Because the storage facility construction cost less
than anticipated, SATA is requesting permission to use the remaining funding for the purchase of
needed computer equipment to replace outdated equipment. The computer equipment requires local
match and does not qualify for state match. This change has been approved by the Small Urban Task
Force. The original authorization provides federal funds and state matching funds under the FY 2009
Federal Section 5311 Nonurbanized Area Formula Capital Program, Surface Transportation Program,
and Small Cities (5,000-50,000) Program. The authorization term remains unchanged,
September 25, 2009, through September 24, 2012. The authorization amount remains unchanged at

will add local funds in the amount of $4,793, and will adjust funding among the line items. The Lake
Erie Transportation Commission is in need of a replacement vehicle and will provide a portion of the
vehicle funding. The original authorization provides state matching funds for SMART’s FY 2009
Federal Section 5307 Urbanized Area Formula Capital Program grant. The authorization term remains
unchanged, August 28, 2009, through August 27, 2012. The revised authorization amount will be
$15,534,133. The toll credit amount remains unchanged at $3,053,311. The term of the master

percent of the project cost, up to a maximum of $96,667.50. Provisions included in the contract permit
