Historical Data (2008)

Fiscal Year (FY) 2008 was a record-breaking year for our office. Region 9 awarded 367 grants totaling $2.3 billion. This represents a 45 percent increase over our totals for FY 2007, both in the number of individual grants and the total dollar amount awarded. With the passage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act on February 17, 2009, FTA significantly expanded its grant programs for FY 2009, and the Region IX Office awarded almost double the amount of money in grants that it did in FY 2008. Current data for each State can be found in the FTA Data Dashboard.
