Congratu- lations! Now the hard work begins. You will soon be contacted by ODOT Active Transportation staff to schedule site visits and to provide information about the stage two application and related project scoping. During site visits and project review meetings in August and early September,ODOT will assist(where needed)in refining the scope, schedule and budget of your project and determining what endorsements,commitments, and other coordination you need to com- plete or obtain for your application. The application form will be provided in September, after the initial site visits and scoping are complete. Your completed application will be due December 13, 2012. ODOT received 155 Notices of Intent. The TE-OBPAC advisory committees selected 64 to advance to Stage Two. We expect to award funding to between 25 and 30 projects. Please note that the Transportation Enhancement (TE)program is affected by the recent passage of federal transportation legislation, MAP-21. It's too early to know how the changes will affect this project solicitation,but we do expect changes. We are awaiting program guidance from the Federal Highway Administration and decisions by the Oregon Transportation Commission. We will keep you informed of these developments. Again, congratulations on advancing to Stage 2. Please contact us if you have any questions. Sincerely, Pat Fish r TE Program Manager Sheila Ly Bicycle Program Manager (503) 986-3528 (503)986-3555
