Legally required reviews and evaluations of Urbanized Area Formula Program grantees to evaluate management performance and grantee compliance with FTA and other federal requirements. The reviews must be conducted for each formula grant recipient at least once every three years with the results integrated into FTA's grant management functions. The reviews are conducted by FTA staff and outside contractor teams following an annual work program. Desk reviews are followed by a site visit. The team documents its findings and recommendations in a draft Triennial Review Report, which is furnished to the grantee for comment before it is released in its final form to interested local, state and federal officials. When appropriate, corrective actions are recommended to resolve grantees' program management deficiencies. FTA monitors the grantee's performance until compliance with all program requirements is achieved. If needed, FTA can invoke sanctions to assure that grantees act to correct any noted program deficiencies.
