• Abstract:
  The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and state and local transportation agencies are
  
  working hard to deliver projects more quickly and efficiently, and for less cost. Many state
  
  departments of transportation (DOT) and local transportation planning organizations have
  
  developed innovative programs to help them achieve these goals. Several of these programs
  
  focus on streamlining compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act
  
  and improving historic resource stewardship, through the early consideration of historic
  
  preservation factors in planning and early project development. These programs are consistent
  
  with the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Every Day Counts initiative to identify and
  
  implement innovative practices that expedite project delivery, enhance roadway safety, and
  
  protect the environment. An important element of the Every Day Counts initiative is FHWA’s
  
  Planning and Environment Linkages (PEL) program. PEL encourages the use of information
  
  developed in transportation system planning to inform the National Environmental Protection
  
  Act (NEPA) review process. PEL also is consistent with the regulations implementing
  
  Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (i.e., 36 CFR Part 800).
