Need for Correction

The FTA notice published in the Federal Register on May 29, 2013 (78 FR 32296), FR Doc. 2013-12766, contained errors. In the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of the notice, the first name of one of the contact persons is incorrect. Also, the table included in the notice provided incorrect discretionary funding IDs for the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority and the New York City Department of Transportation.

Therefore, FR Doc. 2013-12766 is corrected as follows:

1. On page 32296, in the 3rd column, the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section is corrected to read as shown above

2. On page 32302, the table is revised to read as follows:
