Nathan Deal

On behalf of the University of Alabama at Birmingham and its 30,000 students, faculty, and staff members, I would like to welcome you, Senator, and this subcommittee to this campus. Senator Shelby has been very instrumental and supportive of the development of this campus since he was elected to Congress in 1979 and we are very grateful for that. He, along with Congressmen Bachus and Aderholt, have helped us and are fully supportive of the School of Medicine and our human genetics initiative which is well underway.

Senator Shelby is also the first Alabama Senator to serve on the Senate Appropriations Committee since the legendary Senate Lister Hill who had so much to do with the development of the medical center. We are grateful for your leadership, Senator, and again, welcome all of you to this campus. Thank you.

Last year, as part of the Transportation appropriations bill, this subcommittee provided $300 million of Federal funds to the Appalachian highway system. About $40 million of that went to the State of Alabama to advance the progress of Corridor X. This $40 million was over and above the money the State of Alabama received through the Federal-Aid Highway Program.

The reason this money is necessary is to compensate for the Federal Government's poor track record in living up to its promise to finish this crucial highway system. The Appalachian development highway system was created in 1965 with the intent of linking the underdeveloped Appalachian region to the National Interstate System. Today, 33 years later, we still have large segments of the Appalachian highway system which are incomplete. One of the largest unfinished sections of the system in America is Corridor X here in Alabama.

When completed, Corridor X will be a 97-mile highway from the Mississippi State line to I-65 here in Birmingham. In conjunction with other routes in Mississippi, it will provide a freeway-type route from Birmingham to Memphis and will facilitate trade and economic development in northwest Alabama. Not only will it make the movement of goods and people between Memphis and Birmingham more efficient, but this highway project will also bring much-needed jobs to the region. According to the road information program, each $1 billion in new Federal highway investment nationwide generates an estimated 1,018 jobs in Alabama.

Completing Corridor X will also provide critical highway safety improvements in this area. Anyone who has driven much in northwest Alabama knows how dangerous the roads can be, and this new highway will do more to improve highway safety than any other project in recent memory. Highway fatalities in Alabama increased by 11 percent from 1992 to 1996. Nationwide, 77 percent of all fatal crashes occur on two-lane roads while only 14 percent of fatal crashes occur on roads with four or more lanes. In Alabama, 53 percent of the roads on the National Highway System, excluding the Interstate System, are two lanes.

Automobile accidents not only cost lives but they have economic costs as well. Motor vehicle crashes cost Alabama citizens about $2 billion per year or $471 for every resident of the State for emergency services, medical costs, property damages, and lost market productivity. Driving on roads in need of repair costs Alabama $394 million a year or $126 per motorist in extra vehicle repairs and operating costs. Increasing the investment in our Nation's highways will help change this and improve the lives of all of our citizens.

Congressman Aderholt is a member of the House Appropriations Committee and also is a member of the Transportation Subcommittee as well. He worked with me on last year's appropriations bill to ensure that the funds for Corridor X became a reality, and has effectively used his seat on the Appropriations Committee to represent his district.

When I was first elected to Congress back in 1996, Corridor X was my No. 1 priority. Working with the Alabama congressional delegation, the State Department of Transportation, local elected officials, and interested citizens in north Alabama, we were able to secure the largest general fund appropriation in history, $45 million for the current fiscal year, before the State match. Working together, we were able to get this done and it is something we can certainly all be proud of. However, this is just the first step toward the completion of Corridor X.

This year will prove to be the crucial year when a sense of fairness is restored to Alabama for transportation funding and the necessary resources for the completion of Corridor X are secured. Along with the annual preparations process, this year Congress, as you know, will reauthorize the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act, also known as ISTEA.

Congress last authorized ISTEA legislation back in 1991. Unfortunately, Alabama did not fare well in that legislation. Alabama is a donor State, meaning we pay more in gasoline taxes in transportation trust fund than we receive in return for transportation infrastructure project. In fact, Alabama has only got approximately 78 cents on the dollar since 1991.

The lack of a sound surface transportation infrastructure is harming our ability to compete with other areas in the Southeast. Congress has already responded with the largest funding for surface transportation in history last year with $23.3 billion which is up from $20.9 billion the previous year and more than $1 billion over the President's request. And I pledge to continue to build on this progress this year.

Certainly the Alabama congressional delegation has been working together to ensure that this does not happen again with the reauthorization. Thankfully we are in a much better position this time around with members of the Alabama delegation being on key committees.

The No. 1 concern of the delegation is to ensure that Alabama does not receive the short end of the stick on the overall amount of funding that comes from the Federal Government. Certainly as you're well aware, the Senate, last week, passed a 6-year reauthorization of ISTEA and the House will shortly do the same. What is important to know is that all competing long-term reauthorizations are better for Alabama than the current law.

A central issue to ISTEA debate is specific funding category for the Appalachian development highway system. Historically, the main problem for the Appalachian development highway system, which includes Corridor X, has been a stable, dedicated source of funding.

Since the Appalachian development highway system is not part of the Interstate Highway System, it is hard to rely on an annual appropriations process. This is why, in some years, Alabama has had significant levels of funding and other years it received very small amounts. This makes it very difficult for long-term planning and it is part of the reason that the Appalachian development highway system is only 78 percent completed while the Interstate Highway System is 99 percent completed.

The House, the Senate, and the President have all decided to include a specific funding category for the Appalachian development highway system. The real battle seems to be what level of funding will be secured in the final version of the bill. The President's proposal includes $2.1 billion over 6 years for the Appalachian development highway system, the House proposal includes $2.5 billion and the Senate's proposal has $2.2 billion for the Appalachian development highway system.

The funds for the Appalachian development highway system are disbursed by a funding formula based solely on the costs to complete the entire system of which Corridor X is one part. Alabama's share is 11 percent so under the competing bills, we will receive over $200 million before the State match from the highway trust fund. This figure does not take into account the appropriations process, and as I mentioned earlier, and has been mentioned, we worked together last year to secure $45 million in the Transportation appropriation bill last year. Each year we will be in a position to steer additional funds to Corridor X on top of the authorized funding from the highway trust fund.

I have discussed the process to complete Corridor X up in Washington because I know everyone here understands what is important to complete this project. There are two very consequential reasons why the highway must be completed now. The first is economic development for northwest Alabama, and certainly, the second, which is certainly just as important and, in my opinion, more important, is safety.

It is unacceptable omission that there is no Interstate Highway from Memphis to Birmingham. This makes it more costly for businesses in Birmingham but also has slowed economic growth in northwest Alabama. If you look at a map of Alabama, the counties that are experiencing surging economic activity are generally those with an Interstate Highway running through them. Many of the counties in northwest Alabama will be able to create more jobs when Corridor X is completed.

An equally compelling reason to complete Corridor X is safety concerns. The current two-lane route on U.S. 78 is one of the most dangerous highways in the Nation. In Marion and Walker Counties, we have averaged one death per month over the past 50 months. This simply must change and it will do so when Corridor X is completed. U.S. 78 was designed and built more than 50 years ago when traffic patterns were significantly lower.

In addition, the decades of wear and tear have taken their toll that have resulted in hundreds of traffic fatalities. Completion of Corridor X will be a win-win situation for commuters and businesses. And I'm pleased that the people in Birmingham have linked hands with the people of northwest Alabama to see Corridor X come to fruition. Working together, I believe that we can ensure our transportation infrastructure is ready to take us into the 21st century. Prepared Statement Senator Shelby. Thank you, Congressman Aderholt. We will insert your complete statement in the record.

When I was elected to Congress in 1996, Corridor X was my number one priority. Working with the Alabama Congressional Delegation, the State Department of Transportation, local elected officials and interested citizens in North Alabama, we were able to secure the largest general fund appropriation in history -- $45 million for the current fiscal year before the state match. Working together we were able to get this done and it is something we can all be proud of. However, that was just a good first step toward the completion of Corridor X.

This year will prove to be the crucial year when a sense of fairness was restored to Alabama for transportation funding and the necessary resources to complete Corridor X were secured. Along with the annual appropriations process, this year Congress will reauthorize the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA).

Congress last reauthorized the ISTEA legislation in 1991. Unfortunately, Alabama did not fare well in that legislation. Alabama is a "donor state" meaning we pay more in gasoline taxes to the transportation trust funds than we receive in return for transportation infrastructure projects. In fact, Alabama has only gotten 78 cents on the dollar since 1991.

The lack of a sound surface transportation infrastructure is harming our ability to compete with other areas in the Southeast. Congress has already responded with the largest funding for surface transportation in history last year, $23.3 billion which is up from $20.9 billion the previous year and more than $1 billion over the President's request. I pledge to continue to build on this progress this year.

Last week the Senate passed a six-year reauthorization of ISTEA and the House will shortly do the same. What is important to note is that all competing long term reauthorizations are better for Alabama than current law.

The debate for us is moving in the right direction. The central question has been answered. The State of Alabama will receive far more favorable treatment this time around. The real issue is how much more will Alabama receive as compared with current law.

A central issue in the ISTEA debate is a specific funding category for the Appalachian Development Highway System. Historically, the main problem for the Appalachian Development Highway System which includes Corridor X has been a stable dedicated source of funding. Since the Appalachian Development Highway System is not part of the Interstate Highway System, it has had to rely on the annual appropriations process. This is why in some years Alabama has seen significant levels of funding and other years it received very small amounts. This is why in some years Alabama has seen significant levels of funding and other years it received very small amounts. This makes it very difficult for long term planning and is part of the reason that the Appalachian Development Highway System is only 78 percent completed and the Interstate Highway System is 99 percent completed.

The House, the Senate and the President have all decided to include a specific funding category for the Appalachian Development Highway System. The real battle seems to be what level of funding will be secured in the final version of the bill. The President's proposal (NEXTEA) includes $2.1 billion over six years for the ADHS, the House's proposal (BESTEA) includes $2.5 billion for the ADHS, and the Senate's proposal has $2.2 billion for the ADHS.

The funds for the Appalachian Development Highway System are disbursed by a funding formula based solely on the cost to complete the entire system of which Corridor X is one part. Alabama's share is 11 percent so under the competing bills we will receive over $200 million before the state match from the highway trust funds.

This figure does not take into account the appropriations process. As I mentioned earlier, Senator Shelby and I were able to secure $45 million this year in the Transportation Appropriations bill. Each year we will be in a position to steer additional funds to Corridor X on top of the authorized funding from the highway trust fund.

I have discussed the process to complete Corridor X up in Washington because I know everyone here understands why it is important to complete this project. There are two very consequential reasons why this highway must be completed now. The first is economic development for North West Alabama and the second is safety.

It is an unacceptable omission that there is no Interstate Highway from Memphis to Birmingham. This makes it more costly for businesses in Birmingham but it also has slowed economic growth in North West Alabama. If you look at a map of Alabama, the counties that are experiencing surging economic activity are generally those with an Interstate Highway running through them. Many of the counties in North West Alabama will be able to create more jobs when Corridor X is completed. In addition, more businesses will be willing to locate along Corridor X in North West Alabama because the transportation infrastructure is sound.

An equally compelling reason to complete Corridor X is safety concerns. The current two lane route on US 78 is one of the most dangerous highways in the nation. In Marion and Walker Counties we have averaged one death per month for over 50 consecutive months. This simply must change and will do so when Corridor X is completed. US 78 was designed and built more than fifty years ago when traffic patterns were significantly lower. In addition, decades of wear and tear have taken their toll and have resulted in hundreds of traffic fatalities.

Completion of Corridor X will be a win-win situation for commuters and businesses. I am pleased that the people in Birmingham have linked hands with the people in North West Alabama to see Corridor X come to fruition. Working together we will ensure our transportation infrastructure is ready to take us into the 21st century. Statement of Representative Bachus Senator Shelby. Congressman Bachus.

I have been asked to address project status and also funding issues. First of all, I think there has been a growing recognition on the part of the Birmingham community and of north Alabama for the need for this road. I would like to commend the chamber of commerce, I would like to commend Congressman Aderholt. He has made this his No. 1 project. And I think anytime you get a Congressman who takes on one project and concentrates on it, you see an effect. And I think that his efforts, really daily efforts, have resulted in a lot more emphasis on this project because it actually has a voice that can be identified, and that voice is Robert Aderholt in the House.

With you as chairman of the Transportation and Appropriations Committee, I do not know that people in this room realize the significance of that, but if you wanted to put someone on any committee that would have more ability to influence funding for this project, it would be transportation chairman, Senate Appropriations Committee, and we just happen to have Richard Shelby as the chairman of that subcommittee.

I will say this, I think because of, not only chamber of commerce but a group of mayors all along the route pushing very hard for this project, informing us about the importance for their communities, it has grown really to where it is, in the Southeast, one of the top priorities of the Surface Transportation Committee on which I sit. And I think I have very good news for the community, for north Alabama, today, as far as the status of the ISTEA bill, the House of Representatives will increase funding, if the House bill -- the Senate and the House bill are very similar, and I want to commend you and Senator --

What we have is, Alabama has been receiving about $335 million for highways from the Federal Government. Under the new ISTEA bill, it will receive something in the neighborhood of $555 million, so you're talking about a 65- percent increase in funding.

In addition to that, prior to this year, there was no funding for Appalachian highways. The Energy and Commerce Committee funded the Appalachian Regional Commission and they have dedicated about $10 million -- now this is in addition to the ISTEA highway money, they have committed about $10 million through Energy and Commerce a year, prior to this year when you and Congressman Aderholt increased the funding level about fourfold.

Under the new Appalachian regional funding mechanism, and Congressman Aderholt mentioned that our share, there is a big -- for the first time, there is a separate category for highways. It is a several-billion-dollar category, and Alabama's share will go from 8 to 11 percent of Appalachian regional money. And what that means, bottom line, is that for Corridor X and Corridor Y -- I think it is Corridor Y -- Corridor V across Alabama, there will be about $40 million -- and this figure could change in the next few weeks, but will be somewhere between $40 and $44 million for those projects alone, per year.

Compare that with the present spending levels of about $10 million a year and you see that, in Federal money, we're dedicating four to five times as much as we have been.

The Surface Transportation Committee estimates that about 62 percent of that money ought to go to Corridor X because Corridor V is further toward completion. Now Mr. Vaughn could speak to this probably a little better and give you the completion ratio. But bottom line, we will -- the Senate has passed its ISTEA Bill. The House Surface Transportation Committee, on March 24, which is very close to today, March 24, we hope to report a bill out and have it pass the House before April 1. It will then go to a conference. But Alabama will get basically a bigger pie -- I mean, there will be a bigger pie for all the States and Alabama will get a bigger slice of the pie.

Now, as far as the impact of this project on the State of Alabama, the Surface Transportation Committee believes that this project, more than any other, will benefit metropolitan Birmingham -- will benefit north Alabama and northwest Alabama. It is one of metropolitan Birmingham's two missing links; one to the Midwest, the other to Florida and south Georgia and panhandle of Florida. The other transportation need for the City of Birmingham is actually a project that is not even in Birmingham but will be an upgrading of the road between Montgomery and Dothan to tie into I-10, which will have an economic benefit for Birmingham.

That will have probably more impact on commuters and on the economic development here in Birmingham. That project, because we are increasing total spending by 67 percent of moneys given to the State, and those moneys are not dedicated to any one project, so the State of Alabama will be free to direct as little or as much as they want to to the northern beltline and to Corridor X, in addition to these $40 to $50 million that both the authorization committee and the Appropriations Committee have targeted for these projects.

I will say that, as much as you talk about the economic benefit, and our whole second panel is going to talk about economic benefit. The chamber has done a lot of work there, I would simply say that what you're doing is you're linking the Southeast and the Midwest which have more potential for growth than any other sectors, any other regions in the country. You're linking them with an interstate highway which they presently do not have.

Other than the economic benefits, and for first time, I'll read part of my written statement because I think this probably says it best: But even more importantly, Corridor X is needed to improve safety. It seems that every week we lose another Alabamian on the dangerous stretch of road that is now U.S. 78. The completion of Corridor X will mean a safer commute and community, not only for our residents along the road, but for others traveling between Alabama and the Midwest. Finally, I would like to compliment you, Senator Shelby and Senator Sessions. In the House of Representatives we added a University of Alabama Transportation Center.

I was pleased last week to see that the Senate has also added $3.6 million -- and we do not know exactly how much this will be, but approximately or potentially $3.6 million over the next 6 years for the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Tuscaloosa, and Huntsville to study the transportation needs of our State.

We talk about multimillion-dollar projects, but I am as excited about our future leaders, our present students being involved in our universities and in planning our transportation future based on our transportation needs. I think that any time you direct money toward planning, you do it in a scientific, scholarly way, you save a lot of money and you get a much better system.

So with that, I'll close just by simply saying, Senator Shelby, I think you having this hearing here today, one of the few hearings nationwide, by the Appropriations Committee, shows not only -- you've already shown by the appropriations you've put behind this project but also by being here today will make my job in the Surface Transportation Committee -- this hearing today is going to make it a lot more to my advantage in gaining additional funds. Infrastructure Importance to Economic Development Senator Shelby. Thank you, Congressman.

I just want to make an observation or two. One, Senator Sessions is not present, but Congressman Bachus alluded to what happened in the Senate last week as far as ISTEA, the reauthorization bill. Senator Sessions serves on that committee, a very important committee which is counterpart to what Congressman Bachus serves on in the House.

Congressman Aderholt and I do not serve on the authorizing committee, we serve on the Appropriations. So we have a good balance, I believe, for Alabama.

A lot of you are here because you realize how important infrastructure is for economic development, for safety, and so forth. I believe that, if you look back, Corridor X should have been finished 10, 12 years, 15 years ago, and perhaps we did not have the clout, honestly, but we've got the positions now, in Alabama. In the House, with Congressman Bachus, Congressman Aderholt, Congressman Callahan, and in the Senate, and we're going to do it.

I see Mary Buckelew here, and there are a lot of officials, mayors, and councilmen from all over, but she is the chairperson of the Jefferson County Commission. We've talked about something we're not holding a hearing on today but Congressman Bachus brought up, and that is the northern beltline. The northern beltline. I would -- I think after this, down the road, we should have a hearing focusing only on the northern beltline.

Everybody here in Jefferson County that drives through Jefferson County knows what 459 has meant. Can you imagine what the extension around tying on to 459 south of Bessemer and tying on up into northern Jefferson County will mean to the development of Jefferson County, especially west Jefferson County. It will be like daylight and dark. And we're going to do that. I know Spencer, you alluded to it, and that is very important to you, but it is important to all of us. It is important to economic development and I appreciate that.

I appreciate both of you appearing here today. Congressman Bachus is my Congressman from Tuscaloosa, in my district, and I remind him that when I want to get his attention, you know, I say, look, we vote for you. You know, he likes that. [Laughter.]

But you understand what this hearing is about: Corridor X and how it ties in with the system of highways in Alabama. You serve on the committee dealing with ISTEA in the House. This is a historic authorization bill that you're moving in the House.

Over the past 40 years, we've had a Congress which I think we all realize has increased spending and gone into deficit spending, sometimes called the tax-and-spend Congress. And what it did is, of the gas tax which were dedicated to roads, they diverted 4.3 cents to the general fund for other projects.

Talking about billions of dollars. You're basically talking about about 45 cents in taxes, of gas taxes for every gallon of gasoline. And they took about 10 percent of that. That is where the figure came from and they took about 10 percent of it and diverted it into the general fund. You have consistently voted against that, I've noticed, and --

So when we go from our total appropriation of about one- half the increase, little less than one-half is just from the effort of you and I and Congressman Aderholt, and really I think the Alabama delegation, with perhaps some exception, voted to dedicate to highways.

Also Alabama is getting -- as I said, they're getting a bigger share of the pie, so the Senate was able to get the votes to redirect that money toward highways. And so the House Surface Transportation Committee will report out a bill, our goal is by March 24, as I said. We hope to get it to the floor and I think will get it to the floor before April 1. I think it will probably be a 1- or 2-day process on the floor of the House. Then it will go into a conference. And we ought to have a new highway bill before May 1.

Yes; this year they had contract authority for about $340 million. I believe they let about $325 million of that. They will need to be prepared to let those contracts and to start moving dirt. I think that to a certain extent, they've -- there has been a lot of money spent on consultants. I do not think that is necessary on this project. The design work is complete, the route has been chosen. What we need is to move dirt and lay concrete.

That is right. They can direct -- they will have $220 million more a year for all their projects. In addition, they will have $44 million, somewhere between $40 and $44 million specifically for these two projects. I would urge the State, as soon as that bill is passed, on or before May 1, to be in a position to let contracts.

Richard Shelby

I'm not in the State legislature, I spent some time as a State senator, but I -- since I'm in Jefferson County, I believe that the people of Jefferson County ought to be treated equitably when it comes to building and finishing their roads and their highways because they pay in more to the highway fund in Alabama than any other county. And they have not always gotten back what they paid in, and a lot of you have raised this with me. I think you've got to raise that with the Governor, with your State House delegation, with your State Senate delegation. But it ought to be that way because this area is very important. Congressman Aderholt --

We also -- if you look at the funding, north Alabama has not gotten its fair share. So it has been a combination of those two factors. And I think we need to insist on equity. We now have equity from the Federal level and I want to stress -- you know this and I know this, but very little of this -- now Corridor X and Corridor V will have committed funds, but this $550 million a year is unearmarked.

Right. Well, first of all, I think safety has to be the most compelling reason to complete Corridor X. Economic growth, as you know, is normally the central reason to upgrade transportation infrastructure and certainly that is an important aspect here.

But really, in looking at U.S. Highway 78, as it currently exists, and the completion of Corridor X, the lives that have already been lost will continue to be lost until Corridor X is completed and really the human cost cannot be -- the cost there cannot be tabulated and the dollar amounts pale in comparison to the lives of loved ones that have been lost in northwest Alabama.

But that is not to downplay that the economic growth is very central, and I think to overlook that, certainly, would be a mistake. But I have received a number of newspaper stories and photographs from constituents to illustrate the need to complete Corridor X and, as I mentioned earlier in my opening statement, I think for the last 50 months, there has been an average of one life per month that has been lost on Highway 78, just in the Walker and Marion County area.

Your written statements will be made part of the record, if you would. Mr. White, since you're a very important player in this, since you represent the Appalachian Regional Council, the people here in the room would be very interested in your overview: where are we going, how soon we can get there, and where we are today.

You might want to bring that microphone up close to you, otherwise they will not be able to hear you. Statement of Jesse L. White, Jr. Mr. White. Well, thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. First of all, let me commend you on bringing a hearing out into the Appalachian region. We have started a practice of trying to take at least one of our Commission meetings out into the region every year, I think it is good for our people to be able to join us.

My first day on the job, which was a little over 4 years ago, I was meeting with the staff and looking at the map, and I asked them, I said, is Appalachia defined by God or by Congress. And they said, young man, you must be new to Washington, there is no difference.

One thing that is very unique about the ARC, we are unique in Washington in the sense that we are a true Federal/State partnership. The Commission consists of a Federal representative appointed by the President, and I sit with the 13 Governors. And the interesting thing about it is, Congress gave us each one vote. I'm the only Federal official that does not have the final authority to spend money or issue regulations, I have to get the Governors to go along with me, the Governors have to get me to go along with them, so it is really a joint policymaking model that is about 30 years ahead of its time.

Our origins go back to when John Kennedy was campaigning for President in West Virginia in 1959 and was stunned at the poverty he saw. Said he would do something about it, if elected, and appointed, once he was elected, what was called the President's Appalachian Regional Commission [PARC], the PARC Commission.

It is interesting, the opening sentence of the PARC Report says, the following, it is kind of a haunting sentence. It says, "We find that Appalachia is a region apart, both geographically and statistically." And it went ahead to paint a picture of a region that had really been left out of the mainstream of the American economy.

And the first and foremost reason for that was its geographical isolation. And one of its first findings was that, right next to this huge population corridor going up and down the east coast and along the gulf coast, stood this area that had been left out of the Interstate System.

In addition, the Congress found that highways were the first and most important condition of economic growth, but not the only one, and so it authorized us to work in what we call our area development program, which our local development districts worked with us on, and that is everything in terms of industrial parks, education and training, water and sewer, the basic elements of community and economic development that you have to have to capitalize on your highways.

And so we have a full gamut of economic development programs, about two-thirds of the money that Congress has given us in the history of the ARC has gone to building our highway system. It is now about 79 percent complete, and I believe as Congressman Aderholt said, the interstate is 99 percent complete, so we're a little behind.

We have always been funded, our highways have basically always been funded out of the general fund, and what is historic this year, as the Congressmen have pointed out, and as have you, Senator, is that for the first time in history, the President and both Houses of Congress are now committed to funding our roads out of the trust fund. This is a huge development, because we've been able to get only about $100 million a year divided by 13 States to build our roads. And now we're looking at something like $2.2 --

Last year, thanks a lot to you and Senator Byrd in the Senate and our colleagues in the House, we had a banner year. In fact, the ARC had the highest appropriations level last year in our history. In our regular appropriations, we went into conference with $160 million from both Houses and came out with $170 million. So that was pretty good. And then we had this special $300 million earmark for our highway system.

So we want to thank you very much for your leadership. I think the actions that the Congress took last year sort of catapulted us to this position where we now have consensus on really making a substantial investment in completing the system. So not only on behalf of Alabamians, but on behalf of the 22 million people that live in the Appalachian region, I would like to thank you.

The way our system works, Mr. Chairman, is Congress has authorized 3,025 miles for our highway system that you see on the map on the left. The Commission then establishes what the corridors are, and they are not numbers, they are letters. We go from A to X. We are talking about two of the corridors here in Alabama. X was actually one of the last ones added to our system, I think it was added in the midseventies, if memory serves correctly.

Of our entire system, 2,259 miles now are open, 117 miles are under construction, which is about a 79-percent completion rate as has been mentioned. The bad news is that the last 21 percent will cost more than the first 79 percent because we're going through some of the toughest terrain and because, obviously, prices have escalated. It would have been cheaper if we had gone ahead and finished this sooner.

But now we are looking at a price tag of about $8.5 billion for the system, the Federal share of $6.8 billion. There is already some money in the pipeline, the remaining Federal cost is about $6.2 billion. So as you can see, this proposal and NEXTEA is really an investment to finish at least one-third of the system in the next 6 years. So that is just tremendous news.

I myself will be driving that corridor this afternoon. I grew up in Mississippi, I have driven it before, so I have a personal passion for seeing it completed. I am looking forward to the beautiful countryside of Alabama, I am not looking forward to parts of the road that I will have to travel this afternoon. I am going to Ole' Miss, my alma mater tonight, where the President's Commission on Race is meeting, and that will be quite an emotional meeting for me because I was a freshman at Ole' Miss in the Meredith year. So that will be quite an event.

So there is no question that this corridor needs to be completed, Mr. Chairman. The economic benefits are obvious, the safety needs have been mentioned. We are currently undertaking a comprehensive study of the economic impact of our corridors, we will be sharing that with you as it is completed this year. And we are also undertaking a study of the safety impacts of our corridors. We will also be sharing that with you, and I look forward to working with you and our colleagues on the Hill, the entire delegation from Alabama, in finishing our work. Prepared Statement Senator Shelby. Thank you, Mr. White. We have your written statement and it will be made part of the record.

Mr. Chairman, I am pleased to be here in Alabama on behalf of the Clinton Administration to talk about the importance of completing the Appalachian Development Highway System (ADHS). Today, more than 30 years after the first spadeful of dirt was turned on the ADHS, only 79 percent of the system is open or under construction. This Administration believes strongly that it is in the national interest to accelerate the day when Appalachia will be fully served by a system of modern highways. We are pleased to join with your Subcommittee in working toward this goal.

This Subcommittee's strong support this past year for the Appalachian Regional Commission and its highway program has helped give us the largest highway funding level in the Commission's history. Mr. Chairman, thanks to you, Senator Byrd, and other key Members of Congress, we are now able to make substantial progress toward completing this critical highway system -- and honoring the commitment that the nation made to our region over three decades ago that we would have a network of modern highways that could provide the engine for economic growth in small communities all across Appalachia. On behalf of our governors and our small towns and communities, I say a heartfelt thanks.

There is no single item more crucial to the economic development of Appalachia than completion of the Appalachian Development Highway System. This highway system is the cornerstone of the Commission's plan to develop the region, criss-crossing Appalachia and linking the region to the national interstate highway system. From its inception -- now almost 33 years ago -- the ARC highway system has been designed to be an instrument of economic development, first, by improving commerce and transportation within the region, and second, by opening the region to the rest of the nation and linking it to national and international markets. background

A modern system of highways is a critical response to Appalachia's isolation -- a product of treacherous terrain, narrow winding roads, and low travel speeds. That isolation itself accounts for much of the region's relative economic stagnation. Because of high construction costs and low traffic counts, the interstate highway system had largely bypassed Appalachia, leaving vast areas of the region cut off from the mainstream of American economic life. Moreover, the poor condition of the roads that did exist within Appalachia made driving hazardous and discouraged commerce and economic development.

Congress expressly authorized a regional highway system based not on traffic counts but on its development potential -- its ability to open up the region, connecting communities and workers to broader markets and fostering the prosperity that flows from this expanded commerce. Corridors were chosen to close the gap between key markets on either side of Appalachia that were not linked by the interstate system to the region.

The old system of roads -- characterized by low travel speeds, long travel distances, poor design standards, and unsafe conditions -- made the delivery of basic services difficult, expensive, and occasionally impossible, further impeding the region's opportunity for growth. Without an effective system of highways, adequate health care, for example, would be unavailable to literally thousands of Appalachian citizens, and children would have to travel hours on dangerous winding roads to school.

Thus those wise men and women who guided the creation of ARC in the 1960's declared that highways were an essential condition for the region's future growth. In the intervening years, their wisdom has been vindicated. Today the economic impetus to complete the system has never been more compelling. In today's global marketplace, a modern system of highways is a critical first step in fostering economic growth and enabling Appalachia to become a net contributor to the national economy. status

Congress has authorized 3,025 miles for the Appalachian Development Highway System. The Commission has established 26 highway corridors, with each of the region's 13 states being served by at least one corridor. To date 2,259 miles of the system are open to traffic, with another 117 miles under construction. The good news is that 79 percent of the system is open or under construction. The bad news is that the remaining 649 miles are some of the most difficult and expensive to build.

Last year ARC concluded a study of the cost to complete the system. The estimated total cost, as of September 30, 1996, was $8.5 billion, with the federal share of that cost estimated at $6.8 billion. After deducting federal funds that were available for use in fiscal year 1997, the federal share was estimated at $6.2 billion.

The highways are planned, designed and constructed by the individual state highway agencies using funds made available from several Federal sources including appropriations to the ARC and funds from the 1991 ISTEA and other appropriations, such as the special appropriation your Subcommittee provided for fiscal year 1998. The sequencing of the building of corridors within a state is the prerogative of each respective governor.

The Commission allocates funds among our states based essentially on each state's relative share of the cost to complete the entire system. At lower appropriations levels, we do provide a floor and a ceiling, in order to provide a bit more equity among the states. According to our latest cost-to-complete study, Alabama's share is 11.1 percent. economic impact

The economic benefits of highway improvements are remarkable. A recent Department of Transportation report showed that historically almost 30 percent of the nation's growth in the rate of productivity can be attributed to highway improvements. The major performance measures of the Appalachian Development Highway System are the travel efficiencies and the regional economic development which the ADHS has spurred. Even though the entire system is only three-quarters complete, studies have found that the ADHS has significantly improved travel efficiencies and measurably boosted employment, income and population growth in the region, while enhancing safety and reducing the costs and difficulty of extending health, education, and other critical services to the region.

A 1993 study for the National Science Foundation, which examined 27 years of Appalachian regional development, found that economic growth in the region was greatest in those counties with ADHS corridors. Those 110 counties with ARC highways grew 69 percentage points faster in income, 6 percent faster in population growth and 49 percentage points faster in earnings than did counties with similar socioeconomic characteristics outside the region.

Last year ARC launched a major study of the economic impact of our highway system. The study -- which is a comprehensive analysis of segments of 12 ADHS corridors that are 75 percent or more complete -- will look at safety benefits, reduced travel times, reduced vehicle operating costs resulting from the completion of the segments, and, most importantly, the job creation that has occurred as a consequence of our highways. The study is being conducted under a contract with Wilbur Smith Associates, a firm nationally recognized for its feasibility studies and sophisticated econometric analysis. We are now reviewing the preliminary data from the study and expect to have a full report available later in the spring. We will certainly share those results with you when they become available. I am confident that those data will tell a compelling story of how the ADHS is transforming the economic landscape of Appalachia.

At the request of your committee, we are also conducting a study of the impact that the completed ADHS corridors will have on safety. Based on information provided by state highway agencies, this study, which the Federal Highway Administration is conducting for us, will compare accident data from completed sections of the ADHS with data from accidents on unbuilt segments of the ADHS. The analysis of the information is expected to show a significant reduction in accidents attributable to the highway improvements on the corridors under the ADHS program. This report is expected to be completed in May, and we will share it with you just as soon as it becomes available.

Mr. Chairman, these studies can quantify the impact of the ADHS, but they fail to capture the human dimension of these highways. A year and a half ago then-Highway Administrator Rodney Slater and I spent three days traveling the ADHS in four states -- the first time in history that the ARC Federal Co-Chairman and the Federal Highway Administrator had jointly examined our system. Along the route of the proposed Corridor G in West Virginia, we cautiously -- and nervously -- navigated a winding two-lane U.S. highway, coming to an abrupt stop at a railroad crossing a couple of miles from our scheduled lunch engagement in Williamson, West Virginia. We waited almost 15 minutes as two long coal trains passed in front of us. For us it was only a minor inconvenience -- we were just a few minutes late for lunch. But what if there had been an ambulance rushing a pregnant mother to the hospital? Or a farmer needing immediate medical assistance? And imagine the competitive disadvantage these kinds of inefficient and unscheduled delays cause local companies in this area. adhs in alabama

The completion of Corridor V from the Mississippi state line near Red Bay through Decatur and Huntsville is well underway. The 145-mile corridor follows State Route 24, Interstate 565, and U.S. 72 across the state with over 84 percent of the corridor open to traffic or under construction at a total cost of $289.2 million. The 1997 cost estimate showed some $183.5 million of work remained to be completed on the corridor. This includes construction on new location and added lanes on Alabama Route 24 from Red Bay east to Moulton, completion of an unbuilt section in Decatur, and upgrading the existing highway east of Interstate 565 in Huntsville.

Corridor X linking Birmingham, Jasper, and Weston will be instrumental in providing an outlet for the traffic congestion along the U.S. 78 corridor, and it should contribute significantly to reducing the number of serious accidents along U.S. 78. I will myself be driving along this route this afternoon, as I travel to Oxford, Mississippi, to join a discussion of the President's Initiative on Race, so I will get a chance to experience first hand again -- as I have in the past as a native of this area -- the congestion and safety problems along this corridor that a number of your constituents have written me about.

The scope of the work, however, tells only part of the story. The real impact of the Appalachian highway system in Alabama and throughout the region is on the lives, and livelihoods, of the people who travel these roads. Corridor X, when completed, will offer a safer, faster, smoother alternative to the heavy traffic and hazardous intersections that characterize the unimproved sections of U.S. 78 in Alabama. Moreover, it will provide a non-stop freeway connection between Birmingham and Memphis when it hooks up with the interstate-quality section of U.S. 78 at Tupelo. When completed, Corridor X will save time, money, and lives -- it's just that simple and that important. legislative status

This fiscal year, the Commission received a record $402.5 million in appropriations for the highway system, thanks in no small part to your efforts, Mr. Chairman, in providing a special $300 million in the Department of Transportation Appropriations bill. This increase will allow expedited work in Alabama and the 12 other Appalachian states. As a result of this increase in funding, Alabama's ARC highway allocation for fiscal year 1998 is just over $50 million -- that is roughly $40 million more than Alabama would have had available without the special $300 million appropriation, and Senator Shelby, we thank you again for your work on this.

I am also pleased that the Clinton Administration has made an unparalleled commitment to the timely completion of the Appalachian highway system by requesting $2.19 billion for the ADHS in its six-year NEXTEA proposal. This marks the first time that an Administration has proposed funding for our highways out of the Highway Trust Fund. It is my understanding that this is the same figure that is in the Senate's version of the highway authorization. The bill that the House is expected to consider in a few weeks also proposes funding our system out of the Highway Trust Fund, at a six-year total of $2.25 billion. These are significant developments that will, for the first time, provide a steady and reliable source of funding for the system.

In summary, the completion of the 3,025-mile Appalachian Development highway system is essential to bringing Appalachia into the national and international economic mainstream. ARC is committed to building the entire system and welcomes the kind of increase in funding that Congress is considering. The proposed additional authorizations would provide a multi-year source of funding which is essential to the concentrated effort needed to complete the system as contemplated when Congress established the Appalachian highway program.

Once again, Mr. Chairman, I thank you for your strong advocacy of the Appalachian Regional Commission programs, and your untiring work on behalf of the people of Alabama and Appalachia. It is because of people like you that we have made the progress we have on the Appalachian highway system, and for the first time, can look forward to the prospect of completing the system in the foreseeable future, thereby redeeming the promise that the nation made to our region over three decades ago. Favorable Outlook for ARC Senator Shelby. Mr. White, just in a nutshell, can you sum up where we are and where do you think we will be at the rate we are going, you know, with all of the good news, assuming that we work it out as Congressman Bachus says, between the House and the Senate ultimately, in a conference, a favorable conference for ARC plus additional money that we're going to be working on every year with ARC.
