Abstract:
The FHWA requires State Department of Transportation (STD) to update their right-of-way manuals to reflect changes in Federal requirements for programs administered under Title 23 U.S.C. The States must certify at 5 year intervals that their State Right-of-Way Operations Manuals are representative of their procedures, or submit an updated manual. State Transportation Departments (STDs) are required to update their manuals to reflect changes in Federal requirements for programs administered under Title 23 U.S.C. These manuals reflect how the STDs plan to perform real estate acquisition and property management, and maintain the integrity of the right-of-way for highway and related transportation systems.

Short Statement:
Due to the amending of 49 CFR 24 regulations and 24 CFR 710 regulations, a lengthy and in-depth update of each manual will be required. The revisions are prompted by enactment of MAP-21. The burden hours set aside to perform a normal annual update is not sufficient to cover this in-depth update thereby necessitating this request for additional burden hours.
