Agency procedures Sample Clauses
The 'Agency procedures' clause defines the specific processes and protocols that an agency must follow in the execution of its duties under an agreement. This may include steps for submitting reports, obtaining approvals, or handling client communications, and often outlines timelines and responsible parties for each procedure. By clearly establishing these operational guidelines, the clause ensures consistency, accountability, and efficiency in the agency's performance, reducing misunderstandings and streamlining workflow between the parties.

Agency procedures. The Agencies received an anonymous comment suggesting that because the FHWA and FTA have their own missions, programs, and unique experiences, each agency should have its own separate NEPA procedures, not limited to just the CEs. The Agencies are more similar than they are dissimilar with respect to the environmental review process and are therefore not pursuing separate procedures at this time. The Agencies have, however, separated their procedures where appropriate due to their individual programs. For example, each Agency has separate public involvement procedures identified in § 771.111 based on each Agency’s experience. Six State DOTs and one professional association asked FHWA to add or adopt the FTA CEs for bridge removal and for preventative maintenance because those CEs would be beneficial to provide coverage for bridge removal projects in situations where the bridge replacement CE does not apply. Four of the State DOTs and the professional association suggested that bridge removal activities do not depend on whether they are being carried out as part of a highway project or a transit project. Four State DOTs and one professional association said that it would be beneficial to provide a CE specifically for preventative maintenance activities in culverts and channels because it would eliminate uncertainty about whether these types of activities are covered by other CEs. One State DOT expressed concern with a FHWA bridge removal CE due to the amount of impacts that could occur in a typically sensitive habitat area. This same commenter asked whether a road realignment would be covered under the bridge removal CE if the removal requires a road realignment to the new bridge or whether the bridge construction CE would cover this action. One State DOT indicated that it has a PCE agreement that identifies bridge removal as a CE action. The FHWA carefully considered whether to propose new CEs for bridge removal and for preventative maintenance activities and decided against it at this time. The FHWA was not able to identify projects that were limited to the act of removing the bridge with no additional action being taken (e.g., construction of a new water crossing). One possible scenario could be the removal of a bridge for safety purposes, but this action would qualify for the new CE in paragraph (c)(27) (highway safety or traffic operation improvements) if the constraints can be met, or the CE under paragraph (d)(13) if the constraints cannot be met.
