I found the gentleman’s contact information and sent it to you as a Message which is under your login name on the front page. He is now a consultant so he might not be giving information out for free.

As to your FOIA request, why don’t you just ask for the Avoidable Cost/Loss of the Routes. Since NRPC is required by statue to report this I can see them having a hard time suggesting the information is privileged.

In the Saving the Hoosier State Again thread I back-calculated that the short-term avoidable costs were less than 30% of the Total Costs and the Long-Term Avoidable Costs were less than 50% of Total Costs. INDOT is accepting bids to provide the complete service or parts.

I still don’t see how the route level costs roll to the financials (by the way it is a half year since the close of FY 2013 shouldn’t the report be out now). They are not part of the actual audited financial statements. I believe how they account for cost is by cost center and type and then they have to allocate costs.
