CE Minimums(doc) New requirement! FHWA Required Documentation to Complete the Environmental Process for Class 2 Projects (Attach Part 3)… aka “CE Minimums”
The following three new/updated bulletins are now available in the sections above.
1. “Final PS&E Submittal Checklist” This new form replaces the prior Project Completeness Memo (PCM) and Project Completeness Checklist (PCC). It incorporates the new FHWA requirements as well as other process and documentation updates. Review it carefully. The OPL QA request that the new form be used immediately, but will continue to accept the PCM and PCC forms through the end of August. For those who use the PDWP versions of the PCM and PCC forms, please use the new web sourced form until the PDWP version is upgraded.
2. FHWA “CE Minimums” This new FHWA “CE Minimums” form is required to be completed and approved by the FHWA before they will authorize advertisement of any Federal Aid construction project. It is a deliverable item with any Federal Aid PS&E submittal. Failure to submit a copy of the completed and signed document with your PS&E submittal will likely cause a delay in the bid date.
3. “User’s Guide to PS&E Submittal” This guide has been completely been redone. PS&E providers should review the new document for changes in submittals. Users are encouraged to use the Pre-Letting Checklist provided in the Appendix. Doing so will greatly improve the probability of a smooth and rapid project advertisement, bid opening and contract completion.
The following two new/updated bulletins are now available at the Traffic-Roadway web site:
4. “Salvaging Features and Excess Materials Associated with Transportation Projects by Contract Specification” This bulletin defines the approval requirements when project features and excess materials are requested to be salvaged. Region management staff should note the new authorization and reporting requirements for them associated with this document.
5. “Project Bid Advertisement Period” This bulletin explains the requirements for the advertisement period for construction projects.
