dc.description.abstract | The Symms National Recreational Trails Act, authorized by Congress and signed by the 61
President in 1991 as part of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act, created a 7.1%
new federal trails assistance program. The recreational trails program receives its funding
from a portion of federal gas taxes paid on fuel used in non-highway recreational vehicles.
Funds can be spent to construct new recreational trails, improve/maintain existing trails,
develop/improve trailheads or trailside facilities, and acquire trail corridor/easements.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is administering the funds in Texas under the
approval of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Funding provided by this program
is on a cost reimbursement basis. Project sponsors must initiate their approved projects with
their own funds and be reimbursed up to 50 percent of allowable costs after submitting
documentation of expenses. Projects may range in total cost between $5,000 and $100,000.
The Texas Trails Advisory Board, made up of both motorized and non-motorized trail
representatives, assists in the selection of funded projects. Selected projects must comply
with FHWA funding requirements and be in accordance with all federal laws and executive
orders. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission authorizes funding for selected projects
based on the recommendations of the Texas Trails Advisory Board. | |
