Written Guidance. The Federal-aid project development procedures are documented in a number of different manuals, guides, and other resources published by the Iowa DOT. Some of the primary resources are listed below, with hyperlinks, for each: • Federal-aid Project Development Guide (the Guide) – This document provides an executive summary of the entire Federal-aid process. It also provides references and links to other guidance documents and manuals, as described below. • Instructional Memorandums to Local Public Agencies (I.M.s) – These documents provide more specific, step-by-step guidance and instructions to LPAs for particular parts of the Federal-aid process. • LPA Right of Way Manual – This document is a comprehensive guide to LPAs for compliance with the Uniform Act and other State laws pertaining to Right-of- Way acquisition. • Construction Manual – This document provides comprehensive guidance on construction administration procedures. While it is written primarily for Iowa DOT construction inspection staff, LPA inspection staffs are required to follow the inspection and documentation procedures, as they apply to local Federal-aid projects. • Materials I.M.s – These documents provide details for various material testing and certification requirements as required by the Iowa DOT Standard Specifications. • Iowa DOT Standard Specifications - All LPA Federal-aid projects let through the Iowa DOT must use these specifications. They include all of the required Federal-aid contract provisions and other contract requirements. • In addition to these documents, some “in-house” guidance is provided to Iowa DOT staff involved in administering LPA Federal-aid projects as part of the Local Projects Guidance Manual, which is maintained on the Iowa DOT’s intranet (DOTNET). All of the above documents are either reviewed or approved by Iowa Division staff prior to publication. The Office of Local Systems and the Iowa Division jointly maintain an FHWA Review / Approval Matrix for the Guide and I.M.s. This matrix is updated annually and is included in the Iowa Division’s Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for the LPA Program.
