The commission shall consult with the State Air Resources Board in order to utilize the appropriate models, techniques, and methods to develop the evaluation required by this subdivision. (b) With respect to the two billion dollars ($2,000,000,000) appropriated from the TCIF, as described in paragraph (1) of subdivision (c) of Section 8879.23, and the five hundred million dollars ($500,000,000) to be made available from the State Highway Account, the following programming schedule shall apply: (1) The Los Angeles/Inland Empire Corridor shall receive a minimum of one billion five hundred million dollars ($1,500,000,000). (2) The San Diego/International Border Corridor shall receive a minimum of two hundred fifty million dollars ($250,000,000). (3) The San Francisco Bay/Central Valley Corridor shall receive a minimum of six hundred forty million dollars ($640,000,000). (4) Other corridors, as determined by the commission, shall receive a minimum of sixty million dollars ($60,000,000). (c) The corridors referenced in subdivision (b) shall receive the minimum amount of funding programmed for that corridor notwithstanding the deprogramming of any project or projects in that corridor by the commission. If a project is or projects are deprogrammed, the commission shall collaborate with the local transportation agencies in that corridor to select another project or projects for programming of those funds within the minimum amount provided to each corridor pursuant to subdivision (b).

The ninety-seven million dollars ($97,000,000) associated with the project shall then be available for programming in the Los Angeles/Inland Empire Corridor. In that event, the commission shall collaborate with the local transportation agencies in that corridor to select another project or projects for programming of those funds, and, in making that selection, shall take into consideration the Los Angeles/Inland Empire Corridor Tier One or Tier Two Project Lists and any other project identified by the local agencies. Projects currently receiving TCIF funding shall not be considered for selection. (e) On or before February 18, 2009, the department shall report to the policy committees of each house of the Legislature with jurisdiction over transportation matters, a summary of any memorandum of understanding or any other agreement executed between a railroad company and any state or local transportation agency as it relates to any project funded with moneys allocated from the TCIF.
