Maintenance of Traffic During Construction

Categorical Exclusion Training Class Remarks Discuss proposed/anticipated closures and detours Include references to specific applicable policies If MOT substantially impacts sensitive environmental resources, discuss accordingly Discuss how proposed MOT will impact entities that serve the community EMS, fire, police, schools, public facilities, etc. Discuss coordination/PI activities that were initiated with these entities as part of NEPA Are they aware of potential impacts? 23 Categorical Exclusion Training Class

Categorical Exclusion Training Class Remarks Indicate how public entities will be kept updated Advanced notice is required for complex MOT List environmental commitments (#66) Answer yes to generate table Categorical Exclusion Training Class 24

Categorical Exclusion Training Class Example Maintenance of traffic will be handled in four phases. During Phase 1, SR 999 north of the intersection with SR 45 will be closed to accommodate reconstruction. The detour will be SR 328 to US 25 to SR 999 (MOT will be finalized in Stage 3 Design). Special provisions will be made for property owners along SR 999 to access residences. One residential property has two driveways, therefore, at least one drive will be available at all times during construction. During Phases 2 and 3, the SR 999/SR 45 intersection will be reconstructed and traffic will be maintained with part width and signals. During Phase 4, SR 999 south of the intersection will be closed to accommodate reconstruction. The detour will be SR 328 to US 25 to SR 999. There are no through-traffic dependent businesses or festivals that require special accommodations or provisions. Emergency vehicles, public services, and schools will utilize township and county roads. A press release will be issued 15 days in advance of the start of construction activities.

Right-of-Way and Utility Involvement

Categorical Exclusion Training Class Right-of-Way Include approximate acquisition figures (acreage) Permanent and temporary ROW Permanent and temporary Easements Number of parcels impacted As part of remarks indicate type of impacts and location Strip takes Easements or work agreements Impacts to residences, businesses, etc. Include environmental commitments (no table). 28 Categorical Exclusion Training Class

Categorical Exclusion Training Class Utility Involvement Answer utility drop-downs List specific utilities impacted Utility coordination initiated during NEPA, but typically an on-going commitment 29 Categorical Exclusion Training Class

Categorical Exclusion Training Class Example Estimated right-of-way needed for the project is based on preliminary drawings and construction limits. Approximately 10.25 acres (12 parcels from 9 owners) is expected to be acquired from land owners in Westmoreland County and 4.045 acres (62 parcels from 55 owners) is expected to be acquired from land owners in Eastern County. Strip right-of-way approximately 1.85 acres will be acquired from the Madison Park owned and operated by the MetroParks of Westmoreland County. All utilities shown on the project plans or located during project construction will be relocated or adjusted by the owner of the utility. The project may require the relocation of the following utilities: electric, gas, telephone, water, cable, and sewer. All utility work shall be coordinated between the contractor and the utility owners in such a way as to avoid and/or minimize any inconvenience to potentially affected customers. All utility work not included in this contract shall be performed by the affected utility owner or its contractor and will be compliant with ODOT roadway design standards. Utility work will be ongoing throughout construction of the project. 30 Categorical Exclusion Training Class
