PART 2: FORMS A.Environmental Screening Form B.Right-of-Way Certification C.TAP: Project Estimating Worksheet(used during application process to establish initial estimate) D.ITD-1150: Project Cost Summary Sheet (for infrastructure projectsand used during development stage) Instructions: 1.Line 16 of this form is for Mobilization, calculated as a percentage of the construction items listed on Lines 3 through 14. It is up to the Applicant to determinethe appropriate percentage for the project, but 5 to 10% would be considered typical. 2.Line 17 of this form is for Construction Engineering and Contingencies, calculated as a percentage of the construction items listed on Lines 3 through 14 and the Mobilization cost listed on Line 16. Again, it is up to the Applicant to determine the appropriate percentage for the project, but 15% would be considered typical, with 10% allocated to Construction Engineering and 5% allocated to Contingencies. E.Cost Estimatefor Non-Infrastructure Projects: Safe Routes to School (for safe routes to school non- infrastructure projects) F.Project Schedule (for infrastructure projects) PART 3: SUMMARY OF REQUIREMENTS FOR FEDERAL AID RECIPIENTS Applicants should keep in mind that receipt of federal funds requires compliance with the following federal and state requirements (note: this is not an exhaustive list): 1.Equal Opportunityrequirements (non-discrimination) for construction contracts in excess of $10,000. The non-discrimination requirements apply to a wide range of project elements, including contracting opportunities. A non-discrimination agreement must be signed as part of the award process, and records must be kept to show compliance. Disadvantaged Business Entity (DBE) requirements might apply. 2.Minimum wage requirements (Davis-Bacon Act) and anti-kickback requirements (Copeland Act) for construction contracts in excess of $2,000. Records must be kept to show compliance. 3.No use of federal funds for lobbying, for construction contracts in excess of $100,000. 4.National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). a.The National Environmental Policy Act requires federal actions (including local transportation projects receiving federal aid) to be evaluated for potential impacts to the environment. ITD and the FHWA jointly conduct this review. i.For major actions that significantly affect the quality of the human environment, an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) must be prepared. This is a lengthy (and expensive) process that requires consideration of alternatives, analysis of impacts, and compliance with a series ofpublic notice and comment periods. Projects requiring an EIS would not be able to be completed within Community Choices time constraints. ii.For projects in which the significance of the environmental impact is uncertain, an Environmental Assessment (EA) must be prepared. This document is more limited in scope than an EIS, and the procedure is not as lengthy. If through the EA process it is determined that there will not be significant impacts, a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) is issued. If it is determined that there will be significant impacts, an EIS must be prepared. iii.Most federal aid projects qualify for a “categorical exclusion,” meaning that the project will not have a significant effect on the human environment. For these projects, neither an EIS nor an EA need be prepared. Federal regulations have identified several project types that typically receive a categorical exclusion (such as installation of utilities along a road; construction of bicycle and pedestrian paths; landscaping; installation of fences, signs, pavement markings and traffic signals, where no substantial land acquisition or traffic disruption would occur; alterations to facilities to make them accessible to elderly and handicapped persons; and other types of projects). Even though a proposed project might fall within an exclusion category, applicants must obtain clearance from ITD. ) for iv.Contact District Environmental Staff (listed at http://itd.idaho.gov/enviro/District.Staff.htm assistance with navigating the environmental review process. 5.Compliance with audit requirements: a.An entity expending $500,000 or more in a year in combined Federal awards (including any funds received from Federal sources outside ITD: US federal contracts, subcontracts, loans grants, subgrants, and/or cooperative agreements) requires an A-133 Single Audit or program-specific audit each fiscal year.
