REPORT B1LTHE,                                       RELEASED


Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES


Changes In DOT's Grants To Public

Transportation Projects In Nonurbanized

Areas Would Be Beneficial




GAO found that (1) the Federal Highway
Administration has encouraged funding oper-
ating and project administrative costs at the
maximum allowable levels, which provides
the opportunity for program funds to be
substituted for funds previously provided by
other Federal ard non-Federal sources, (2)
certain operating-type costs are being fun-
ded at a level that is inconsistent with the
funding of similar costs in urban systems,
(3) the requirement that grantees provide
services to the general public is unclear,
and (4) inadequacies in the program's informa-
tion system make it difficult to assess pro-
gram results.

This report presents the first two issues as
matters for consideration by the Congress
and makes recommendations for address-
ing the other issues.
