Abstract:This report celebrates another year of accomplishments by the Federal Highway Administration, Office of Federal Lands Highway. Since joining FHWA in mid-July, I have had the opportunity to visit each of the Federal Lands Division Offices, multiple projects, partners, and many of the talented and dedicated team members that make Federal Lands Highway the great organization that it is. As the new Associate Administrator for Federal Lands, I am humbled and honored to be a part of an organization that has done so much for our nation by assisting our federal land management agency partners in the planning, design and construction of context and environmentally sensitive transportation projects. These projects provide vital transportation improvements for Tribal communities and access to and within our nation’s parks, forests, wildlife refuges, and other federal lands. This year the Congress passed and the President signed the “Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act.” The FAST Act is a five year authorization and provides the Office of Federal Lands Highway the opportunity to plan a five year program. Due to the lack of a multi-year surface transportation authorization and multiple short-term extensions, we haven’t had this opportunity in years. I’m excited about the next five years and the opportunities we now have to work with our federal land management agency partners in charting a path for the future. The FAST Act provides new authorities and funding increases in our core programs which will allow us to better serve our partners by developing innovative solutions and delivering quality projects that meet partner requirements.
