1 SIS Designation Criteria Update presented to FTP/SIS Implementation Committee presented by Chris Edmonston Systems Implementation Office November 6, 2017

2 Agenda Introduction Background SIS Policy Plan Recap SIS Designation Structure Changes SIS Policy Plan Implementation Efforts SIS Policy Plan SIS Policy Plan Implementation Timeline Q & A 2

3 Why Was the SIS Created? Help meet growing demand for moving people and freight Link Florida s economic regions Existing SIS Structure Enhance Florida s competitiveness as a global trade hub Make strategic choices for transportation investments within financial constraints SIS Planned Add Emerging SIS 3

4 SIS Policy Plan Recap SIS Objectives Continuing Emphasis Areas» Reaffirm statutory intent for interregional, interstate, and international travel» Continue emphasis on largest and most strategic facilities 4

5 2016 SIS Policy Plan New Emphasis Areas 5

6 Changes to SIS Structure Former Revised SIS Planned Add SIS SIS Emerging SIS Strategic Growth 6 Under revised framework, Planned Add/Drop would be an internal FDOT processing term.

7 How SIS Designation Has Changed Facility Type Commercial Service Airports General Aviation Airports N/A 2 Spaceports 1 2 Seaports Interregional Passenger Terminals Freight Rail Terminals 7 8 Urban Fixed Guideway Terminals N/A 36 Intermodal Logistics Centers N/A 1 Highway Corridors 4,200 miles 4,396 miles Intermodal Connectors ~245 miles 257 miles Military Access Facility N/A 48 miles Rail Corridor 1,940 miles 2,090 miles Intermodal Connectors ~136 miles 235 miles Waterway Corridor 1,210 miles 1,930 miles 7 Intermodal Connectors ~160 miles 183 miles

8 SIS Policy Plan Implementation: Focus on Original Intent Continue to focus on largest and most strategic facilities by combining SIS and Emerging SIS components» Emerging SIS term would be sunset» Most existing Emerging SIS facilities would meet SIS threshold Recognize importance of smaller and high growth facilities by adding Strategic Growth component» Support smaller or planned facilities that are projected to meet SIS criteria in the near future» Differentiate Strategic Growth from facilities designated SIS through funding eligibility and prioritization process 8

9 SIS Policy Plan Implementation: Focus on Managed System of Designated Facilities Strengthen bi-annual SIS designation review process» Evaluate facilities to ensure the SIS operates as a managed system of strategic facilities» De-designate facilities that no longer meet the criteria Simplify criteria where needed» Apply SIS criteria to Florida total activity levels rather than comparing to national total activity levels» Reduce the need for difficult or impossible to acquire activity level data 9

10 Implementation: Increase Emphasis on Co-location and Connectivity Freight Hubs Support global and domestic trade flows» Include facilities that support the freight network differently than the traditional intermodal freight rail terminal, such as: Intermodal logistics centers (ILCs); warehousing or logistics clusters; etc. Passenger Hubs Better integrate modal infrastructure and services, information and business processes» Require Interregional Bus and Rail Terminals to co-locate with another facility» Support improved first- and last-mile connectivity» Consider sunsetting designation of standalone Greyhound or Amtrak terminals 10

11 Potential Strategic Growth Criteria All Modes Requires submittal and review of application addressing the following questions: Is the facility projected to meet SIS minimum activity levels within the next three years? Does the facility have a current master plan including a prioritized list of production ready projects? Is the facility identified in a local government comprehensive plan, Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS), or equivalent? 11

12 Potential Strategic Growth Criteria All Modes (cont.) Is the facility determined by FDOT to be of compelling state interest, such as serving a unique marketing niche or potentially becoming the most strategic facility in a region that has no designated SIS facility? Is the facility determined by FDOT and appropriate agency partner(s) to support an economic development opportunity of statewide interest? Does the facility have partner and public consensus on viability of a new or significantly expanded facility? Does the facility meet community and environment screening criteria? 12

13 Potential SIS Criteria Airports Example Existing SIS Component Size Criteria (must meet one of the following) 0.25% of U.S. total annual passenger enplanements 0.25% of U.S. total annual freight and mail tonnage Existing Emerging SIS Component 50 miles from the closest SIS commercial service airport AND (must meet either size OR economic connectivity criteria) Size Criteria (must meet one of the following) 0.05% of U.S. total annual passenger enplanements 0.05% of U.S. total annual freight and mail tonnage Economic Connectivity Criteria (must meet both minimum activity floor and key industry employment criteria) Minimum activity floor (must meet one of the following) 0.01% of U.S. total annual passenger enplanements 0.01% of U.S. total annual freight and mail tonnage Key industry employment (must meet one of the following) 0.05% of U.S. total employment of industries dependent on aviation transportation (within 50 miles) Located in a county or city within a designated Rural Area of Opportunity and 0.01% of U.S. total employment of industries dependent on aviation transportation (within 50 miles) 13 Potential New SIS Component Size Criteria (must meet one of the following) 1% of Florida total annual passenger enplanements 1% of Florida total annual freight and mail tonnage Potential New Strategic Growth Component Must meet ALL of the following: Is the facility projected to meet SIS minimum activity levels within three years?

Is the facility determined by FDOT to be of compelling state interest, such as serving a unique marketing niche or potentially becoming the most strategic facility in a region that has no designated SIS facility? Is the facility determined by FDOT and appropriate partner(s) to support an economic development opportunity of statewide interest? Does the facility have partner and public consensus on viability of a new or significantly expanded facility? Does the facility meet Community and Environment Screening criteria?
