"Over the years, we've moved away from a 'dividing the pie' strategy to one based on risk." - Kip Hawley, TSA Administrator
- FY08 grant awards total $333.2 million.
- Grant recipients are intracity rail, bus, and ferry systems in the 8 highest risk regions (high risk regions have the highest passenger volume and density, most underground or underwater track mileage, and most critical infrastructure).
- FY08 Funding Priorities reflect projects that prevent or protect against terrorism and will have an immediate impact in reducing risk. Examples: security training for frontline employees; visible/unpredictable deterrence activities, such as canine and mobile screening teams, and Visible Intermodal Protection and Response (VIPR) Teams; drills and exercises; and public awareness programs.
