APPLICATION PURPOSE: THE PURPOSE IS TO CONSTRUCT THE HUDSON TUNNEL PROJECT (HTP).; ACTIVITIES PERFORMED: THE HTP INCLUDES THREE ELEMENTS: 1) THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW HUDSON RIVER TUNNEL BETWEEN NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY; 2) THE REHABILITATION OF THE EXISTING NORTH RIVER TUNNEL UNDER THE HUDSON RIVER; AND 3) LONG ISLAND RAIL ROAD (LIRR) EMERGENCY SERVICES BUILDING (ESB) UTILITY RELOCATION EARLY WORK ASSOCIATED WITH THE SEPARATELY FUNDED HUDSON YARDS CONCRETE CASING SECTION 3 PROJECT.; EXPECTED OUTCOMES: THE PURPOSE OF THE HTP IS TO PRESERVE THE CURRENT FUNCTIONALITY OF AMTRAKS NORTHEAST CORRIDOR (NEC) SERVICE AND NJ TRANSITS COMMUTER RAIL SERVICE BETWEEN NEW JERSEY AND PSNY BY REPAIRING THE DETERIORATING NORTH RIVER TUNNEL; AND TO STRENGTHEN THE NECS RESILIENCY TO SUPPORT RELIABLE SERVICE BY PROVIDING REDUNDANT CAPABILITY UNDER THE HUDSON RIVER FOR AMTRAK AND NJ TRANSIT NEC TRAINS BETWEEN NEW JERSEY AND PSNY. THESE IMPROVEMENTS MUST BE ACHIEVED WHILE MAINTAINING UNINTERRUPTED COMMUTER AND INTERCITY RAIL SERVICE AND BY OPTIMIZING THE USE OF EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE. AT THE COMPLETION OF THE HTP THE NEC WOULD HAVE FOUR TRACKS (TWO IN THE NEW HUDSON TUNNEL AND TWO IN THE NORTH RIVER TUNNEL) BETWEEN NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY UNDER THE HUDSON RIVER. NO CHANGES TO PSNY PLATFORMS OR PLATFORM TRACKS ARE PROPOSED AS PART OF THE HTP SINCE PSNY IS OUTSIDE OF THE HTP PROJECT AREA THEREFORE THE CURRENT OPERATIONAL CAPACITY OF PSNY WILL BE MAINTAINED AT THE LEVEL IT IS TODAY.; INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: THE HTP WILL ALLOW MULTIPLE NJ TRANSIT RAIL SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE STATE TO FEED INTO AND UTILIZE THE TUNNEL AND PSNY. THESE IMPORTANT RAIL CONNECTIONS FACILITATE THE MOVEMENT OF OVER 200000 TRAIN PASSENGERS TRIPS PER DAY BETWEEN NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY.; SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES: GDC DOES NOT HAVE ANY SUB-RECIPIENTS.
