4. Asset Management Background Where are we now? Where are we going?
How do we get there?
I would like to set the stage for the presentation. NMDOT defines Transportation Asset Management as covering all items from right of way line to right of way line. We cover drainage culverts and ITS infrastructure below ground, but we aren’t responsible for utilities like water, electric, phone or gas lines, and we aren’t normally responsible for storm sewers. The above ground features are considered assets. Our Transportation Asset Management Plan will be developed in 3 key sections as listed here.

5. Background Background MAP-21 required it – FAST Act
NPRM comments closed May 2015
Final Rule by November 2016
Performance Targets
NHS Pavements & Bridges
MAP-21 established requirements that each state is required to develop a risk-based asset management plan for the National Highway System to improve or preserve the condition of the assets and the performance of the system (23 USC SS119€(8), MAP-21 SS It also required the USDOT Secretary to issue a regulation not later than 18 months after the date of enactment after consultation with the States (The NPRM). Comments were provided to the docket and FHWA has set a tentative date of November 2016 for At the same time, the TAM NPRM was issued, the FHWA issued an NPRM on System Performance (PM3) that provides required performance measures and the criteria used in each measure. The DOT needs to set performance targets for pavements and bridges on the NHS and the MPO’s are also required to set targets on Pavements & Bridges on non-DOT maintained NHS.

6. NHS
This is a map of the NHS. All 3 of our Interstates, 10, 25 and 40 are considered part of the NHS. Most of the other US highways were designated as NHS after the passage of ISTEA in Over time, there have been some opportunities to add routes to the NHS. There are a couple of NM designated roads and in 2012 under MAP-21 roads classified as Principal Arterials were added to the NHS; however, we have worked with the MPOs and FHWA to remove some of these roads from the NHS designation.

7. Where are we now?
Mission – NMDOT uses data-driven asset management to maximize use of limited public resources and maintain the state’s transportation infrastructure in the best possible condition.
We are working with a consultant in the development of our Transportation Asset Management Plan. In order to determine where we are now, we held a series of workshops in order to get input from various NMDOT staff. From March through August, we held 7 workshops on data planning, bridge management, pavement management, objectives & measures, risk management, financial planning and data improvements. This is the TAM Mission that we came up with in March 2015 during one of our early workshops. As the Asset Management & Planning Division strives to be transparent, we will have a self-service data portal where our TAM data can be found.
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.

8. Draft Guiding Principles
Condition and Performance
Maintain current condition (5% Structurally Deficient) or show slight improvement for the NHS
When offered an alternative, maintain what we have before adding capacity
Determine thresholds for Good, Fair, and Poor using Pavement Condition Rating (PCR), with recognition to MAP-21 requirements (pavement)
These are our Draft Guiding Principles that came out of our 2015 Workshops and are being refined in order to include them in our TAMP. The guiding principles are in three main areas, 1. Condition and Performance, 2. Funding and Resource Allocation and 3. Management Systems

9. Draft Guiding Principles
Funding and Resource Allocation
Reserve a % of budget for statewide prioritization
A % of the model recommendation can be overridden by engineering judgment
Delineate funding decisions between Interstate, non-Interstate NHS, non-NHS, and Off System
Management Systems
Bridge
Pavement
Other Assets (Future TBD)
Based on feedback from the District Offices during the workshops and interviews, we are in the process of drafting our guiding principles related to how Funding will be allocated to the Districts in order to manage the entire system, yet meet the requirements established for condition performance targets included in the NPRM for Pavements and Bridges. Our Cabinet Secretary, Tom Church has indicated that he would like to get to a statewide project prioritization model. This is a significant difference from how federal funding is allocated and STIP projects are selected. The Districts are concerned because we all know that we don’t have enough funding to maintain our existing system. As we continue to evaluate the first 2 guiding principles we are trying to determine an actual number where the % symbol is in the first two. We also need to consider our entire DOT maintained road system and understand the federal funding constraints for the various functionally classified roads and funding eligibilities for the lower functional classes. Another key concern is the development of management systems and the quality of the data in the systems. For example, we have a good bridge inspection inventory that is update with each new inspection; however, we don’t have a good deterioration model for bridges. As we look at our Pavement Management system, we went through a major revision and emphasis that Jeff can explain. Our revised PMS was deployed in January 2016 with 3 years of condition data and new decision trees. We don’t really have a good comprehensive management system for other assets like signs, signals, drainage structures, guardrails, etc.

Last year, we put together a summary of our pavement and bridge condition and based on current funding allocations can estimate what our future condition would be if we used the same funding level each year.

Financial Plan & Investment Strategies
We are working to integrate our Long Range Plan, STIP and other plans together and to develop project prioritization process. We need to review our asset information and be sure that we are following our objectives and measures and we measure and address performance gaps. The requirement is that our TAMP is a risk-based plan and we are still in our infancy in developing a risk management approach in our analysis. There will always be the engineering component of developing projects, developing and then refining our deterioration models in order to develop a Financial plan that identifies our key investment strategies in order to meet our performance targets.

Gordon, let Scott know if you want to use NMDOT data to illustrate a point here.
Assumptions: Combine Maintenance, Preservation, Replacement/Reconstruct
Roughly use SPP models developed in March; assume Reconstruction favored.
Inflation = Revenue Growth (2%). BIG assumption.
