FEDERAL MANAGEMENT: Challenges Facing the Department of Transportation. Statement of John H. Anderson, Jr., Director, Transportation Issues, Resources, Community, and Economic Development Division.

Abstract

We are here today to discuss the critical management challenges facing the Department of Transportation (DOT). My testimony is based on a report we issued in January as part of GAO'S performance and accountability series on major management challenges and program risks facing the federal government. With a budget request of over $50.5 billion for fiscal year 2000, the Department faces critical challenges in achieving its goals of ensuring the safe and efficient movement of people and goods and in making cost-effective investments in the nation's transportation infrastructure.
