What is the process of organizing a pooled project request?
• To start the process for a pooled fund project, one should develop a proposal, describing the following: • The proposal must indicate who would lead the project (a State or the FHWA) and the lead agencys financial contribution. • Submit proposal and request to establish a pooled fund project and the use of 100% SP&R funding. State-led: Submit the proposal and request through your local FHWA Division office. The division office will forward the request to the TPF Program Manager in FHWA, along with its endorsement of the proposal. FHWA-led: Submit the proposal and request via e-mail to the TPF Program Manager. • Upon submitting the proposal and request to establish the project, the lead agency may post their pooled fund solicitation on the TPF website. **The solicitation contact for the lead agency has the ability to post the solicitation online.
