#4 Report 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Surface Transportation 

Project Delivery Program, commonly 

known as the National Environmental 

Policy Act (NEPA) Assignment Program, 

allows a State to assume FHWA’s 

environmental responsibilities for 

review, consultation, and compliance 

for Federal highway projects. When a 

State assumes these Federal 

responsibilities, the State becomes 

solely responsible and liable for the 

responsibilities it has assumed, in lieu 

of FHWA. This program mandates 

annual audits during each of the first 4 

years to ensure the State’s compliance 

with program requirements. This is the 

fourth and final audit of the Florida 

Department of Transportation’s (FDOT) 

performance of its responsibilities under 

the NEPA Assignment Program. This 

notice finalizes the findings of the 

fourth and final audit report for FDOT.

Background 

The Surface Transportation Project 

Delivery Program, codified at title 23, 

United States Code (U.S.C.), section 327, 

commonly known as the NEPA 

Assignment Program, allows a State to 

assume FHWA’s responsibilities for 

environmental review, consultation, and 

compliance for Federal highway 

projects. When a State assumes these 

Federal responsibilities, the State 

becomes solely liable for carrying out 

the responsibilities it has assumed, in 

lieu of FHWA. Effective December 14, 

2016, FDOT assumed FHWA’s 

responsibilities for environmental 

review and the responsibilities for 

reviews under other Federal 

environmental requirements. 

Section 327(g) of Title 23, U.S.C., 

requires the Secretary to conduct annual 

audits to ensure compliance with the 

memorandum of understanding during 

each of the first 4 years of State 

participation and, after the fourth year, 

monitor compliance. The results of each 

audit must be made available for public 

comment. This notice finalizes the 

findings of the fourth audit report on 

FDOT participation in the program. A 

draft version of this report was 

published in the Federal Register on 

December 14, 2022, at 87 FR 76535, and 

was available for public review and 

comments. The FHWA received two 

responses to the Federal Register Notice 

during the public comment period for 

this draft report. One comment from the 

American Road and Transportation 

Builders Association voiced support for 

this program and another was made by 

a citizen. The citizen’s comment was 

unrelated to this report.

FINAL 

Surface Transportation Project Delivery 

Program, FHWA Audit #4 of the Florida 

Department of Transportation, May 

2019 to April 2020 

Executive Summary 

This is a report of the fourth and final 

audit of the Florida Department of 

Transportation’s (FDOT) assumption of 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) responsibilities under the 

Surface Transportation Project Delivery 

Program. Under the authority of section 

327 of Title 23, United States Code 

(U.S.C.), FDOT and the Federal 

Highway Administration (FHWA) 

executed a memorandum of 

understanding (MOU) on December 14, 

2016, whereby FHWA assigned, and 

FDOT assumed, FHWA’s NEPA 

responsibilities and liabilities for 

Federal-aid highway projects and other 

related environmental reviews for 

transportation projects in Florida. 

The FHWA formed a team in January 

2020 to conduct an audit of FDOT’s 

performance according to the terms of 

the MOU. The team held internal 

meetings and reviewed FDOT’s 2019 

Project Development & Environment 

(PD&E) Manual and NEPA project files, 

FDOT’s response to FHWA’s pre-audit 

information request (PAIR), and FDOT’s 

NEPA Assignment Self Assessment 

Summary Report. The team presented 

initial project file observations to FDOT 

Office of Environmental Management 

(OEM) on June 26, 2020, and July 28, 

2020. The team conducted virtual 

interviews with FDOT, resource 

agencies, and prepared preliminary 

audit results from September 21–24, 

2020. The team presented these 

preliminary observations to FDOT OEM 

leadership on September 25, 2020. 

While FDOT continues to develop, 

revise, and implement procedures and 

processes required to carry out the 

NEPA Assignment Program, it is 

FHWA’s expectation that 

documentation to support a project’s 

decision will be included in the 

Statewide Environmental Project 

Tracker (SWEPT) system prior to project 

closeout. By addressing the observation 

in this report, FDOT will continue to 

assure a successful program. 

Overall, the team found that FDOT 

remains committed to delivering a 

successful NEPA Program. This report 

describes numerous successful 

practices, no observations, and one noncompliance observation. The FDOT has 

carried out the responsibilities it has 

assumed in keeping with the intent of 

the MOU and FDOT’s application. 

Through this report, FHWA is notifying 

FDOT of the one non-compliance 

observation that requires FDOT to take 

corrective action. The report concludes 

with the status of FHWA’s noncompliance observations from the first, 

second, and third audit reviews, 

including any FDOT self-imposed 

corrective actions. 

Background 

The purpose of the audits performed 

under the authority of 23 U.S.C. 327 is 

to assess a State’s compliance with the 

provisions of the MOU as well as all 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
64510 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 180 / Tuesday, September 19, 2023 / Notices 

applicable Federal statutes, regulations, 

policies, and guidance. The FHWA’s 

review and oversight obligation entails 

the need to collect information to 

evaluate the success of the NEPA 

Assignment Program; to evaluate a 

State’s progress toward achieving its 

performance measures as specified in 

the MOU; and to collect information for 

the administration of the NEPA 

Assignment Program. This report 

summarizes the results of the fourth 

audit in Florida and includes a 

summary discussion that describes 

progress since the last audit. This audit 

is the last of the required audits. 

Scope and Methodology 

The overall scope of this audit review 

is defined both in statute (23 U.S.C. 327) 

and the MOU (Part 11). An audit 

generally is defined as an official and 

careful examination and verification of 

accounts and records, especially of 

financial accounts, by an independent 

unbiased body. With regard to accounts 

or financial records, audits may follow 

a prescribed process or methodology 

and be conducted by ‘‘auditors’’ who 

have special training in those processes 

or methods. The FHWA considers this 

review to meet the definition of an audit 

because it is an unbiased, independent, 

official, and careful examination and 

verification of records and information 

about FDOT’s assumption of 

environmental responsibilities. 

The team consisted of NEPA subject 

matter experts (SME) from FHWA 

offices in Texas, Georgia, and 

Headquarters, as well as staff from 

FHWA’s Florida Division. The diverse 

composition of the team, as well as the 

process of developing the review report 

and publishing it in the Federal 

Register, are intended to make this audit 

an unbiased official action taken by 

FHWA. 

The team conducted a careful 

examination of FDOT policies, 

guidance, and manuals pertaining to 

NEPA responsibilities, as well as a 

representative sample of FDOT’s project 

files. Other documents, such as the 

August 2020 PAIR responses and 

FDOT’s August 2020 Self Assessment 

Summary Report, also informed this 

review. In addition, the team 

interviewed FDOT and resource and 

regulatory agency staff via video 

conference. This review is organized 

around the six NEPA Assignment 

Program elements: program 

management; documentation and 

records management; quality assurance/ 

quality control (QA/QC); legal 

sufficiency; performance measurement; 

and training program. In addition, the 

team considered three cross-cutting 

focus areas: (1) Environmental Permits; 

(2) Process Improvements; and, (3) 

Project Authorizations. 

The team defined the timeframe for 

highway project environmental 

approvals subject to this fourth audit to 

be between May 2019 and April 2020, 

when 635 projects were approved. The 

team drew judgmental samples totaling 

110 projects from data in FDOT’s online 

file system, SWEPT. In the context of 

this report, descriptions of 

environmental documents are consistent 

with FDOT’s Project Development and 

Environment Manual. The FHWA 

judgmentally selected all reevaluations 

of Environmental Impact Statements 

with Records of Decision (ROD) (three 

projects) and Environmental 

Assessments with Findings of No 

Significant Impacts (FONSI) (eight 

projects). The team selected a random 

sample of 61 Type 1 Categorical 

Exclusions (CE), 16 Type 2 CEs, and 22 

Type 2 CE Reevaluations, for a total of 

110 projects in the sample. The team 

reviewed all fiscal project authorization 

files in the audit period (422 project 

files) downloaded from FHWA’s Fiscal 

Management Information System to 

determine if the NEPA certification was 

completed for these projects prior to the 

authorization. In addition, for all 

projects with a NEPA approval date 

within the audit year (316 projects), 

SWEPT was used to evaluate the 

supporting environmental information. 

The remaining 106 projects used the 

FDOT Project Approvals Reports to 

provide a cursory review of the 

environmental information. 

The team submitted a PAIR to FDOT 

that contained 25 questions covering all 

6 NEPA Assignment Program elements. 

The FDOT responses to the PAIR were 

used to develop questions for the virtual 

interviews with FDOT staff. 

The team conducted a total of 32 

interviews. Interview participants 

included staff from all seven FDOT 

District offices and the FDOT Central 

Office. The team interviewed FDOT 

legal and environmental staff. The team 

also interviewed representatives from 

the following resource agencies: 

National Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration—National Marine 

Fisheries Service; the U.S. Coast Guard; 

the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers; and the State 

Historic Preservation Officer from the 

Florida Department of State, Division of 

Historic Resources. 

The team compared FDOT policies 

and procedures (including the 

published 2019 PD&E Manual) for the 

audit focus areas to the information 

obtained during interviews and project 

file reviews to determine if FDOT’s 

performance of its MOU responsibilities 

are in accordance with FDOT policies 

and procedures and Federal 

requirements. Individual observations 

were documented during interviews and 

reviews and combined under the six 

NEPA Assignment Program elements. 

The audit results are described below by 

program element. 

Overall Audit Opinion 

The team recognizes that FDOT’s 

efforts have included implementing the 

requirements of the MOU by: processing 

and approving projects; refining 

policies, procedures, and guidance 

documents; refining the SWEPT 

Tracking System for official project files; 

training staff; implementing a QA/QC 

Plan; and conducting a self assessment 

for monitoring compliance with the 

assumed responsibilities. The team 

found evidence of FDOT’s continuing 

efforts to train staff in clarifying the 

roles and responsibilities of FDOT staff, 

and in educating staff in an effort to 

assure compliance with all of the 

assigned responsibilities. 

During the fourth audit, the team 

identified numerous successful 

practices, no observations, and one noncompliance observation that FDOT will 

need to address through corrective 

actions. 

The FDOT has carried out the 

responsibilities it has assumed 

consistent with the intent of the MOU 

and FDOT’s application. The team finds 

that FDOT is in substantial compliance 

with the terms of the MOU. By 

addressing the non-compliance 

observation in this report, FDOT will 

continue to assure a successful program. 

Successful Practices and Observations 

Successful practices are practices that 

the team believes are positive, and 

encourages FDOT to continue or expand 

those programs in the future. The team 

identified numerous successful 

practices in this report. Observations are 

items the team would like to draw 

FDOT’s attention to, which may 

improve processes, procedures, and/or 

outcomes. The team identified no 

observations in this report. 

A non-compliance observation is an 

instance where the team finds the State 

is not in compliance or is deficient with 

regard to a Federal regulation, statute, 

guidance, policy, State procedure, or the 

MOU. Non-compliance may also 

include instances where the State has 

failed to secure or maintain adequate 

personnel and/or financial resources to 

carry out the responsibilities they have 

assumed. The FHWA expects the State 

to develop and implement corrective 

actions to address all non-compliance 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 180 / Tuesday, September 19, 2023 / Notices 64511 

observations. The team identified one 

non-compliance observation during this 

fourth audit. 

The team acknowledges that sharing 

initial results during the closeout and 

sharing the draft audit report with 

FDOT provided them the opportunity to 

clarify any observation, as needed, and/ 

or begin implementing corrective 

actions to improve the program. 

The Audit Report addresses all six 

MOU program elements as separate 

discussions. 

Program Management 

Successful Practices 

The FDOT has continued and 

expanded its working relationships with 

the resource agencies. The FDOT has 

been meeting early and often with some 

resource agencies to discuss ongoing 

and future projects. This enhanced 

communication minimizes delays in 

project delivery and permitting 

processes. The Efficient Transportation 

Decision Making process was in place 

prior to NEPA Assignment and this tool 

continues to foster good relationships 

between FDOT and the resource 

agencies. Districts are beginning to 

conduct periodic Environmental 

Technical Advisory Team (ETAT) 

Webinars instead of annual ETAT 

meetings to discuss upcoming projects. 

In addition, federally funded positions 

dedicated to FDOT projects reduce 

delays in project delivery. 

The SWEPT is a fundamental 

component of FDOT’s NEPA 

Assignment success. The SWEPT 

continues to be a critical and flexible 

tool in implementing the NEPA 

Assignment Program responsibilities. 

The review team learned through the 

interviews that as FDOT users have 

become more familiar with the SWEPT 

System, they have praised its usefulness 

in streamlining the NEPA 

documentation process. The SWEPT 

provides standards for documentation 

in templates, provides a consistent 

interface, and facilitates the creation of 

the administrative record. Users also 

have an opportunity to provide input to 

improve SWEPT’s ability to track 

project progression. The SWEPT has 

continued to evolve and is now used to 

support the permitting process for some 

projects. 

The FDOT’s internal communication 

is robust and effective. As FDOT’s 

NEPA Assignment Program matures, 

communication and relationships 

continue to improve between FDOT’s 

OEM staff, district staff, and 

consultants. Communications at the 

program level between OEM and district 

staff have become a regular part of their 

day-to-day operations. The OEM 

engagement through the Project Delivery 

Coordinators has helped save time on 

projects and improved consistency. 

Monthly meetings within the districts 

among environmental staff and permit 

coordinators have improved project 

development and delivery. One district 

holds quarterly meetings between 

permitting, environmental management, 

and construction offices to discuss 

outstanding items and issues. 

The FDOT Districts accelerate NEPA 

project delivery through enhanced 

scoping. The review team learned 

through interviews that two districts 

have staff complete surveys and 

assessments before the NEPA process 

begins to accelerate project delivery. 

Once the NEPA process begins, the 

district consultants are then able to 

complete the NEPA phase in a shorter 

timeframe, without having to wait on 

seasonal surveys, such as those required 

for some species, and other information 

that is needed for the NEPA decisions. 

This early information gathering is an 

example of Planning and Environment 

Linkages to allow for accelerated NEPA 

project delivery and reduced costs for 

consultant services in the 

environmental phase. 

Quality Assurance/Quality Control 

Successful Practice 

The SWEPT provides a QA/QC 

advantage. The review team learned 

through interviews that SWEPT 

provides additional environmental 

document quality control for the project 

file. The use of templates in SWEPT and 

the SWEPT System validation control 

point prevents project advancement and 

approval until required documents are 

uploaded and serves as additional QA/ 

QC tools. 

Legal Sufficiency 

Successful Practices 

The FDOT has an attorney dedicated 

to Section 4(f) reviews. Section 4(f) is a 

complex law which is challenging to 

master and implement. This practice 

allows FDOT counsel to provide 

consistent advice, develop subject 

matter expertise, and allows for 

streamlined reviews ensuring the 

analysis meets the legal sufficiency 

requirements in accordance with 23 

CFR part 774. 

Counsel has been fully integrated into 

the NEPA decisionmaking process. The 

FDOT Districts routinely contact 

counsel with questions throughout the 

NEPA development process. Consulting 

early and often with counsel has not 

only expedited the NEPA 

decisionmaking process but also 

translated into counsel being invited to 

participate in other phases of project 

development and policy matters. 

Training Program 

The FDOT has continued to focus 

resources ensuring staff, other agencies, 

and consultants are adequately trained. 

In the audit period FDOT again trained 

more than 2,300 staff, consultants, 

resource agencies and local agencies in 

over 100 courses on topics such as 

Section 4(f), Permits, Wetlands, and the 

PD&E Manual. Through information 

presented in the FDOT Self Assessment 

and the interviews, the review team 

learned of the variety in, and growth of, 

FDOT’s environmental training 

program. 

Successful Practice 

The FDOT has a strong onboarding 

process when new employees join the 

OEM. The OEM initiated a 6-month 

pilot program to conduct weekly 

sessions led by technical experts. These 

onboarding mentoring sessions with 

SMEs are being recorded and made 

available for other FDOT staff to watch 

on demand. 

Performance Measures 

Based on information reported in 

FDOT’s 2020 Self Assessment Summary 

Report, FDOT met, exceeded, or was 

close to achieving all targets for the 

review period. 

Documentation and Records 

Management 

The team reviewed environmental 

documentation for 61 Type 1 CEs, 16 

Type 2 CEs, and 33 Reevaluations 

which included RODs, FONSIs, and 

Type 2 CEs to determine if the 

environmental review met Federal 

requirements. The team also reviewed 

422 fiscal project authorization files to 

determine if NEPA was completed for 

these projects prior to the authorization. 

Non-Compliance Observation #1: 

Some FDOT project files contain 

insufficient documentation to support 

the project authorization, environmental 

analysis, or environmental decision. 

The team found some CEs that did not 

have a Statewide Transportation 

Improvement Program (STIP) page or 

had an outdated STIP page (10 projects) 

in their documentation for fiscal 

constraint. The team also found that 

some fiscal project authorizations did 

not have documentation verifying that 

NEPA was completed (11 projects). The 

FDOT has already updated the SWEPT 

System by uploading any missing 

documentation. In addition, FDOT 

committed to making process

1The published version of the original notice is 

included in the docket for this correction. 

improvements to address any remaining 

concerns. 

While the SWEPT System has 

validation control points in place, there 

are still opportunities for additional 

enhancements regarding quality 

assurance to ensure these documents are 

included in all project files. It is 

FHWA’s expectation that 

documentation to support a project’s 

decision will be included in the SWEPT 

system prior to project closeout. 

Update From Previous Audit Findings 

The FHWA reported a noncompliance observation related to some 

FDOT project files that lacked 

documentation to support the 

environmental analysis or decision as 

part of Audit #1, Audit #2, and Audit 

#3. Also, as part of Audit #3, FHWA 

identified the lack of documentation to 

support the project authorization. The 

FDOT and FHWA have productively 

worked together to resolve 

documentation issues from these 

previous audits. The FDOT 

implemented several process 

improvements to address noted 

procedural deficiencies. 

2017 Audit #1, Non-Compliance 

Observation #1 and 2018 Audit #2, NonCompliance Observation #1: Some 

FDOT project files contain insufficient 

documentation to support the 

environmental analysis or decision. 

To address the 2017 and 2018 

findings, FDOT implemented 

enhancements to SWEPT including 

revisions to the Type 1 CE checklist, the 

Type 2 CE form, and the reevaluation 

form. They added STIP and the 

Transportation Improvement Plan 

planning consistency uploading 

instructions, added validation for data 

within the Type 1 CE checklist for rightof-way, wetlands, floodplains, and 

waterways, added an attachment point 

for the project commitment record in 

the Type 1 CE checklist, allowed 

multiple attachments for Section 7 

Endangered Species Act concurrence 

letters, integrated Section 4(f) approvals 

for applicable classes of action, and 

developed a spreadsheet tool for the 

project managers to verify which 

documents need to be uploaded to the 

project file. The FDOT also updated the 

PD&E manual, conducted training for 

their staff on the SWEPT and PD&E 

manual enhancements and on the areas 

of noted deficiencies. The FDOT also 

developed computer based training in 

some of these areas for future use. 

2019 Audit #3, Non-Compliance 

Observation #1: Some FDOT project 

files contain insufficient documentation 

to support the project authorization, 

environmental analysis or decision. 

To address the 2019 findings, FDOT 

implemented enhancements to SWEPT 

by adding validation for data within the 

Type 1 CE checklist for bridge permits. 

The FDOT also updated the PD&E 

manual, conducted training for their 

staff on the SWEPT, and made PD&E 

manual enhancements in the noted 

deficiency areas. The FDOT also 

developed computer based training for 

class of actions, CEs, and environmental 

assessments. 

The improvements made in response 

to the 2017, 2018, and 2019 

observations were assessed during this 

final audit and are considered sufficient 

to address the issues underlying the 

non-compliance observations in those 

audits. 

Finalizing This Report 

The FHWA received two responses to 

the Federal Register Notice during the 

public comment period for this draft 

report. One comment from the 

American Road and Transportation 

Builders Association voiced support of 

this program and another was made by 

a citizen. The citizen’s comment was 

unrelated to this report. This report is a 

finalized version of the draft report 

without substantive changes.

announced its decision to renew 

exemptions for eight individuals from 

the hearing requirement in the Federal 

Motor Carrier Safety Regulations 

(FMCSRs) for interstate commercial 

motor vehicle (CMV) drivers. The 

exemptions enable these hard of hearing 

and deaf individuals to continue to 

operate CMVs in interstate commerce. 

The notice inadvertently published an 

individual’s legal name incorrectly. This 

notice corrects that error. 

DATES: This correction is effective 

September 6, 2023. Comments on the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Correction 

On September 6, 2023, FMCSA 

published a notice of renewal of 

exemptions (88 FR 60732) with an 

effective date of September 12, 2023, 

which FMCSA announced its decision 

to renew exemptions for eight 

individuals from the hearing 

requirement in the Federal Motor 

Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) for 

interstate CMV drivers. The notice 

inadvertently published Alex Courtney 

O’Donnell Bertling’s legal name 

incorrectly. Through this notice, 

FMCSA corrects the September 6, 2023, 

notice of renewal of exemptions by 

correctly indicating Alex Courtney 

O’Donnell Bertling’s legal name.1

In FR Doc. 2023–18993 appearing on 

page 60732 in the Federal Register of 

September 6, 2023, the following 

correction is made: 

1. On page 60733, in the third 

column, ‘‘Courtney Bertling (OR)’’ is 

corrected to read ‘‘Alex Courtney 

O’Donnell Bertling (OR)’’.
