Section 008 is the result of a detailed review and decision based on
		existing law, existing highway conditions, the Roadside Design Guide
		suggestions, the AASHTO Green Book, other States' provisions, costs,
		engineering judgment, mail delivery and pickup considerations, and operational
		performance information. It is the judgment of the drafters that based on a
		consideration of all current information, having no express longitudinal
		location provisions is in the overall best interest of the Department, the
		State of Nebraska, Nebraska citizens and the traveling public. Motorists must
		recognize and meet their duty to use reasonable care to protect themselves and
		others when in the vicinity of mailboxes including while mail is being
		delivered or picked-up along the State Highway
		System.

Nebraska Administrative Code › Topic - TRANSPORTATION, DEPARTMENT OF › Title 412 - NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION - ROADWAY DESIGN DIVISION › Chapter 4 - When Use of Public Private Partnerships may be Appropriate › Section 412-4-003 - PUBLIC POLICY

Current through June 17, 2024
The Department of Transportation ("The Department") promotes and
	 encourages the use of P3 when (a) determined to be more appropriate than the
	 other Alternative Project Delivery Methods based on consideration of the
	 criteria set out in
	 01.04, (b) found to be in the
	 State's best interest, and (c) its use is consistent with the limitations of
	 the Constitution of Nebraska.
Nebraska Administrative Code › Topic - TRANSPORTATION, DEPARTMENT OF › Title 412 - NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION - ROADWAY DESIGN DIVISION › Chapter 4 - When Use of Public Private Partnerships may be Appropriate › Section 412-4-004 - CRITERIA TO WEIGH IN ANALYZING WHEN USE OF P3 MAY BE APPROPRIATE FOR DELIVERY OF A DEPARTMENT TRANSPORTATION PROJECT

Current through June 17, 2024
004.01A The
  Director of Transportation ("The Director") or designee will make an initial
  determination whether any proposed project will be considered for use of an
  Alternative Project Delivery Method or whether the project should be developed
  under the traditional design-bid build method of Neb. Rev. Stat. §
									39-1348 et seq. If a proposed
  project is selected by the Director as a candidate for an alternative project
  delivery method, then the following criteria shall be applied in determining
  whether to use P3. The Director reserves the right to reconsider the use of P3
  or another alternative delivery method whenever such reconsideration is in the
  best interest of the Department.
004.01B Subject to the provisions of Section
  01.05, the following are qualitative
  considerations that the Department may evaluate when determining whether it is
  appropriate to use a P3 delivery method:
004.01B1 Whether a project presents complex
  technical requirements;
004.01B2
  Whether a project affords a material opportunity to employ private sector
  innovations, technical concepts, or specialized knowledge/expertise;
004.01B3 Whether there is a need to
  accelerate completion or to contract for a date certain for project
  completion;
004.01B4 Whether the
  project affords the Department an opportunity to allocate typical public-sector
  risks to a private partner in exchange for the private sector meeting
  performance-based requirements rather than technical specifications;
004.01B5 Whether there are favorable market
  conditions, whether by way of greater competition for projects, a program of
  projects, or financial market conditions being conducive to private sector
  investment under a Value-for-Money analysis;
004.01B6 Whether P3 delivery may better meet
  the public expectations for project approach, project cost and
  completion;
004.01B7 Whether the
  project lends itself to delegating lifecycle, technology, or long-term
  performance responsibilities to the private partner(s);
004.01B8 Whether the project will be required
  to function at a high level, low failure rate, under intense use
  conditions;
004.01B9 Whether P3
  delivery may make for more efficient use of State resources, including but not
  limited to human capital; and
004.01B10 Whether there is Value-for-Money in
  transactional/procurement costs to pursue P3 delivery rather than conventional
  delivery.
Nebraska Administrative Code › Topic - TRANSPORTATION, DEPARTMENT OF › Title 412 - NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION - ROADWAY DESIGN DIVISION › Chapter 4 - When Use of Public Private Partnerships may be Appropriate › Section 412-4-005 - INTERPRETIVE INTENT; CONSTRAINTS

Current through June 17, 2024
005.01A The
  Department decision whether the P3 delivery method is appropriate is both
  project- and situation-specific. Nothing in this rule and regulation will be
  construed to compel use of P3 delivery solely by virtue of the analysis of the
  project and situation-specific considerations against the foregoing criteria.
  If the Department determines by weighing the project and situation-specific
  considerations of a proposed project that P3 may be appropriate, the Department
  may nevertheless elect to deliver the project via other project delivery
  methods.
005.01B The foregoing list
  of criteria is not exclusive. The foregoing list is not presented in any order,
  and no single criterion is to be construed as more or less important than
  another based upon its placement on the list. Some criteria are overlapping. No
  single criterion is determinative, nor is any single criterion required, for
  the Department to determine when use of the P3 delivery method is appropriate
  for a particular project.
005.01C
  The foregoing criteria may be considered as criteria favoring project delivery
  methods other than P3 as may be authorized under Nebraska law.
005.01D Analysis as to whether P3 delivery
  may be appropriate, in part according to the foregoing criteria, shall consider
  such additional criteria, constraints, requirements, impositions, and
  considerations, when appropriate, including the use of federal funding, federal
  participation, or other basis upon which federal law imposes requirements
  regarding delivery method, features, procurement, requirements, risk
  apportionment, or other features of the project.
005.01E Nothing in this rule and regulation
  will be construed to limit any other provision of Nebraska law, rule, or
  regulation, including published procurement policies and manuals.
005.01F The decision whether to use the P3
  alternate delivery method is in the sole discretion of the Department and any
  such decision shall not create a right or cause of action for anyone, or the
  right to appeal or to contest the decision.

001.01
  Provide local and regional organizations with additional means by which to
  promote certain highway corridors within the State Highway System which possess
  unusual, exceptional, or distinctive scenic, historic, recreational, cultural,
  or archeological features, and to protect and improve these features.
001.02 Provide people traveling within the
  State of Nebraska additional information regarding certain highway corridors
  within the State Highway System which possess unusual, exceptional, or
  distinctive scenic, historic, recreational, cultural, or archeological
  features, thereby increasing appreciation of, and visitation to, these
  resources.
