| Every
Fall, DOT revises its annual performance plan based on Congress’
action on the President’s annual budget request, and to improve
measures or targets based on additional performance information.
This year, due to DOT’s operations for the first half of FY
2003 being conducted under a continuing resolution, and due to uncertainties
regarding DOT final FY 2003 appropriations as this plan goes to
press, we have chosen to display revisions to the FY 2003 plan in
this document, rather than publishing them separately. Several goals
in the plan associated with the Transportation Security Administration
and the U.S. Coast Guard have been removed, reflecting their transfer
to the Department of Homeland Security on March 1, 2003. To the
extent that performance goals, measures, and targets in this plan
indicate differences from last year’s plan, this plan is the
controlling document.
