📖 Research Context From Federal Register API

Summary:

This notice announces that FHWA received and reviewed an application from the Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) requesting participation in the Surface Transportation Project Delivery Program (Program). This Program allows for FHWA to assign, and States to assume, responsibilities under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), and all or part of FHWA's responsibilities for environmental review, consultation, or other actions required under any Federal environmental law with respect to one or more Federal highway projects within the State. The FHWA has determined the application to be complete and developed a draft MOU with NDOT outlining how the State would implement the program with FHWA oversight. FHWA invites the public to comment on NDOT's request, including its application and the proposed MOU, which includes the proposed assignments and assumptions of environmental review, consultation, and other activities.
