Abstract: Under 23 U.S.C. 119(e) and implementing regulations at 23 CFR part 515, State departments of transportation (State DOTs) are required to develop Risk-Based asset management plans (AMPs) for the National Highway System (NHS) to improve or preserve the condition of the assets and the performance of the NHS. As part of this requirement, each State DOT must annually submit information to FHWA that demonstrates that the State DOT has implemented an AMP that meets the requirements of 23 U.S.C. 119(e) and 23 CFR part 515, and every 4 years, each State DOT must submit its processes for the development of its AMP to FHWA for certification and recertification every four years following the year of initial certification (23 U.S.C. 119(e)(6)). Section 11105(3) of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (Public Law 117-58) added a requirement that the required risk management and lifecycle cost analyses in AMPs consider extreme weather and resilience. A State DOT not in compliance with these requirements receives a penalty in the form of reduced Federal share for projects carried out under the National Highway Performance Program.
