FY 2011 TRANSIT SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM (TSGP) Remediation Plan Guide Prior Assessments: * What type of assessment(s) is being used as a basis to identify the vulnerabilities, and when/where were they conducted? Please list the assessment(s), what entity conducted them (owner/operator, DHS, including approved sub-contractors), and when they were conducted. * Does the asset have a significant vulnerability per the assessment that could be exploited by a terrorist causing significant loss of life and/or system disruption? * Did the assessment recommend specific mitigation options to address vulnerabilities? What types of options were presented (e.g., operational, physical security, electronic security, etc.)? Remediation Plan: * Does the remediation plan adequately describe how vulnerabilities were identified? * Does the remediation plan adequately address all the vulnerabilities as described in the assessment? * Does the remediation plan call for further resources to be utilized, other than the best estimate developed for the final design component, and are those resources present? * Is proper documentation for EHP review available? If not completed, is the expected completion date known? * Are there any other environmental obstacles at the local or State level? * Does the remediation plan include detailed costs for the mitigation options identified in the assessment? * Does the remediation plan include detailed timelines for the mitigation options identified in the assessment? Timelines/Costs: * Do the timelines, milestones, and cost estimates appear reasonable given the 48-month period of performance for Capital projects (36 months for Operational) and five-year limitation on grant funds? * Is the budget for the project consistent and are all variances in cost-drivers taken into consideration? * Based on prior research/experience, does the remediation plan appear to be efficient? * Based on prior research/experience, are there other more cost effective mitigation options available?
