LPA Certification Riverton, WY November 20, 2014

Purpose of Certification To ensure a sub-recipient agency has a fundamental understanding of the requirements in executing state and Federal Highway Administration rules

Requirement for Certification The Local Public Agency (LPA) must show a certified staff member when the cooperative agreement is signed. Began with FY 2012 funds. A certified staff member is defined as one that has taken the certification course and passed the final exam and has the ability to advise on the execution of the project. The certified staff member may be different than the responsible charge.

Partial List of Eligible Projects Transportation Alternatives Program – Safe Routes to School – Recreational Trails Congestion Mitigation & Air Quality Bridge Replacement Off System State Transportation Program – Urban Partial List of Removed Projects pedestrian and bicycle safety and educational programs; acquisition of scenic or historic easements and sites; scenic or historic highway programs including tourist and welcome centers; and establishment of transportation museums.

Preliminary Engineering Reminder This certification reminds everyone that if you see major issues in your project that up to 10% of the allocated funding could be used for preliminary engineering. Nearly all off-roadway projects expect preliminary engineering to be done before application.

Certification WYDOT’s State Planning Engineer will determine the need for recertification. Normal certification is three years – If no significant deficiencies found may be extended by three additional years based on a letter submitted to WYDOT – May require recertification if enough serious deficiencies are found. Certification tracked by T2/LTAP
