INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW OF THE STIP
The Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) is a coordination and funding document developed by state and local governments and authorities in the Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs). The STIP is a four year document that identifies the funding for and scheduling of transportation projects and programs. This document provides an overview of Ohio’s STIP for Fiscal Years (FY) 2014 through 2017 (July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2017). Included herein are details on federal and state requirements and regulations. The STIP has two main purposes. First, it presents the fiscally balanced, multimodal, transportation program for the state of Ohio including projects funded with federal, state, and local resources. Second, it serves as the reference document required for use by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) in approving the use of federal funds for transportation projects in Ohio. The STIP is also designed to document how decisions are made regarding which projects will be funded to ensure an integrated statewide transportation plan; and how the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) will manage the use of those funds over the course of the period covered by the STIP. Finally, the STIP is designed to document analyses of the overall transportation program that demonstrates how the group of projects meets constraints and regulations required by federal law. Analysis of the implications of this program for low income and minority persons in our region (environmental justice) and the impact of the program for air quality are required. The relationship to other federal regulations is also discussed. The requirement for a STIP for all areas of the State was originally established under the federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Act (ISTEA) of 1991 and was reestablished in the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) that was enacted by Congress and signed into law on August 10, 2005. SAFETEA-LU stipulates that the capital and non-capital transportation projects proposed for funding under Title 23 (highways) and Title 49 (transit) of the U.S. Code as well as all regionally significant transportation projects requiring an action by FHWA or FTA must be on the STIP in order to be eligible for funding. The requirements for the STIP continue under the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) signed into law on July 6, 2012. In general, the STIP is developed with inclusion of the State’s 17 Metropolitan Planning Organizations’ (as shown in Map 1) Transportation Improvement Programs (TIPs) in their entirety and the inclusion of the non-metropolitan projects, developed in consultation with local governments in accordance with ODOT’s Rural Consultation Process. Only transportation projects and phases that use federal aid or projects of regional significance are required to be included in the STIP.

Federal Requirements The requirements and regulations for the STIP and the MPO TIPs are summarized below and addressed within this document. MAP-21: On July 6, 2012, the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) was signed into law. It builds on and refines many of the highway, transit, bike and pedestrian programs and policies established in 1991. MAP-21 creates a streamlined, performance-based, multimodal program to address the many challenges facing the U.S. transportation system. These challenges include improving safety, maintaining infrastructure condition, reducing traffic congestion, improving efficiency of the system and freight movement, protecting the environment, and reducing delays in project delivery. Map 21 continues the requirements for a STIP that was originally established in 1991. For additional information, visit http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/map21/. Time Period: The STIP shall cover no less than a four year period and be updated at least every four years. The financial tables and project tables included in this document cover State FYs 2014-2017. ODOT and the MPOs have established a two year update cycle. Public Involvement: The STIP process shall provide opportunity for public review and comment on the STIP. Section 1 of this document summarizes the public participation process. Detailed discussion regarding public involvement that took place for the 2014-2017 STIP is located in Appendix 3. Specific Project Information: The STIP is responsible to list capital and non-capital surface transportation projects that use a variety of federal funds or regionally significant projects requiring FHWA or FTA action. For each project, or project phase, the STIP shall include sufficient descriptive material including work type, termini, length, total estimated cost, estimated amount of federal funds, and responsible agency. Occasionally, line items may be used for projects that are not considered to be of appropriate scale for individual identification. The detailed project listing organized by county, route, and section in Appendix 5 provides complete detail for each project. Consistency with the Transportation Plan: Each project or project phase in the STIP shall be consistent with ODOT’s Transportation Plan, ACCESS OHIO, as reestablished under MAP-21. Financial Plan: The STIP shall include a financial plan including system-level estimates of costs and revenue sources that are reasonably expected to be available to adequately operate and maintain Federal-aid highways and public transportation. Section 9 of this document discusses the expected financial resources and Table 9 summarizes the STIP fiscal balance. Air Quality Conformity: The conformity process assures that federally supported highways and transit activities identified in Transportation Plans, Programs (this STIP) and projects are consistent with the purpose of the State Air Quality Implementation Plan (SIP). In Section 3 you will find detailed information on Ohio’s air quality. Environmental Justice: The STIP shall document that the implementation of the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program does not disproportionally affect targeted populations. ODOT’s Environmental Justice Analyses is documented in Section 4. Additional map analysis is available in Appendix 2.

1. STIP DEVELOPMENT PROCESS AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT In carrying out a continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive planning effort, ODOT is responsible to represent the state’s perspective in the consensus building process that leads towards identification of statewide transportation needs, solutions, and priorities. This is completed by ongoing evaluations of existing programs and diagnosis of established needs and priorities. Continual coordination between ODOT, MPOs, transit authorities, local governments, and other stake holders through active public participation is an important element in preparation for the STIP. Consultation with the non-metropolitan areas’ local government officials is an integral part of the development of ODOT’s rural projects. In the metropolitan areas, the MPOs collaborate with ODOT and local governments in the solicitation projects. Public participation is conducted after the draft STIP is prepared and is completed prior to the submittal of the STIP to FHWA and FTA. Details of the public participation process are available in Appendix 3. Draft STIP A draft STIP is prepared that considers all information received from ODOT, local governments, MPOs, transit authorities, and the general public. This draft is fiscally balanced for the statewide programs. In April the draft STIP is made available for a two week period for public review and comment in various locations throughout the state. During the public review period ODOT will host Open Houses statewide for all interested parties to attend and provide comment. Final STIP After the public review period all comments received will be reviewed and considered for inclusion into the Final STIP. If no new major corrections have been made, the STIP will be submitted to FHWA and FTA. FHWA will coordinate the air quality conformity review and approval with the U.S. EPA. 2. ONGOING MAINTENANCE OF THE STIP The STIP is a dynamic schedule of agreed upon priority programs and projects that ODOT and its partners will work to accomplish over the next four years. The STIP is reviewed regularly and adjustments are made based upon the ability of resources to accomplish the projects, the costs for the projects, and the changing needs of the transportation system. ODOT may make minor changes to the STIP (defined below) through administrative modifications and all other changes through a formal amendment process. The following procedures are applicable for processing changes (both administrative modifications and formal amendments) to the STIP. In accordance with the provisions of 23 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) 450, TIPs developed by MPOs are incorporated into the STIP and therefore subject to these procedures. Amendments and Administrative Modification Procedures In accordance with 23 CFR 450.216(c), projects in any of the four years of the STIP may be moved to any of the other four years of the STIP subject to the project selection requirements of 23 CFR 450.222. Such modifications do not require approval, provided expedited project
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 9
selection procedures have been adopted in accordance with 23 CFR 450.332 and the required interagency consultation or coordination is accomplished and documented. Definitions Administrative Modifications are minor changes to the STIP/ TIP that:
• Revise a project description without significant change to the project scope or conflict with the environmental document;
• Revise the project phase funding amount within 20 percent of the cost listed in the STIP for transit projects;
• Revise the project phase funding amount listed in the STIP within the following limits for highway projects:
Current Project Phase Cost Change in Project Phase Cost $1-$999,999 50 percent of the phase cost $1,000,000-$4,999,999 30 percent of the phase cost $5,000,000 and above 20 percent of the phase cost
• Change the source of funds (change from state to federal or change in type of federal funds);
• Change a project lead agency;
• Split or combine individually listed projects as long as independent utility and logical termini are maintained;
• Change the funding type(s) for individual statewide line items.
Administrative modifications can be processed in accordance with these procedures and the procedures described in 23 CFR 450 and 49 CFR 613, provided that:
• It does not affect the air quality conformity determination, including timely implementation of Transportation Control Measures (TCMs), and
• It does not impact financial constraint.
Amendments or formal amendments are all other modifications to the STIP/TIP that are not Administrative Modifications. Procedures: Administrative Modifications:
Each MPO may elect to adopt procedures for administrative modifications which are the same as the procedures described above or more restrictive. An MPO may elect not to process any TIP changes as administrative modifications and as a result all changes would be processed as amendments. Each MPO-approved administrative modification will be forwarded to ODOT Office of Systems Planning and Program Management through the appropriate ODOT District office for approval on behalf of the Governor. The MPO Board may delegate approval of Administrative Modifications to the MPO’s Executive Director. If the MPO Board delegates approval of Administrative Modifications to the Executive Director, the MPO will need to provide copies of the delegation to ODOT.
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 10
Once approved by ODOT, on behalf of the Governor, the Administrative Modification will be incorporated into Ohio's STIP and no Federal action will be required. ODOT will notify the MPO of the approved administrative modification, and provide a copy of the approved administrative modification to FHWA and FTA.
Amendments (Formal Amendments):
Amendments to the Ohio STIP must be developed in accordance with the provisions of 23 CFR 450.326 and/or 23 CFR 450.216, and approved by the Federal agencies (FHWA and FTA) in accordance with 23 CFR 450.220. Each approved MPO TIP amendment will be forwarded to ODOT Office of Systems Planning and Program Management through the appropriate ODOT District office for approval on behalf of the Governor. Once approved by ODOT, on behalf of the Governor, ODOT will forward the amendment to FHWA or FTA for federal approval according to the established submittal schedule. Once approved by FHWA or FTA, the amendment will be incorporated into Ohio's STIP.
Dispute Resolution: If a question arises on the interpretation of the definition of an administrative action (administrative modification or formal amendment), ODOT, the MPO, FHWA, and FTA (the parties) will consult with each other to resolve the question. If after consultation, the parties disagree on the definition of what constitutes an administrative modification, the final decision rests with FTA for transit projects and FHWA for highway projects. Statewide Line Items Projects that are not considered to be of appropriate scale for individual identification in a given year may be grouped by function, work type, and/or geographical area. In non-attainment areas these projects must be consistent with the “exempt project” classifications. In addition, projects that are not regionally significant may be grouped in one line item or identified individually in the STIP. Appendix 1 is a table outlining ODOT’s available statewide line items.
3. AIR QUALITY CONFORMITY
The US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) establishes National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for the entire United States. US EPA has established standards for a variety of pollutants, including transportation sector related ozone, carbon monoxide, particulate matter, and nitrogen dioxide pollutants. US EPA, through its partner state air quality agencies, monitors actual localized (regional) pollutant levels to assure that all areas of the nation are meeting and maintain the national air quality standards. If, through US EPA’s monitoring, a particular region of the nation is identified as not meeting an individual air quality standard, US EPA designates the region as a Nonattainment Area. Following a nonattainment designation, the affected state and region are required to develop a plan recording the pollution reduction strategies that will be implemented to enable the region to meet and maintain the air quality standard. This plan is referenced as a State Implementation Plan (SIP). The SIP quantifies needed pollutant emission contributions from three principal sectors of
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 11
the economy – transportation, industry, and consumer activity. Once an area subsequently begins meeting the standard, US EPA re-designates the affected region as a Maintenance Area. Ohio includes designated nonattainment and maintenance areas for four separate US EPA air quality standards: 1997 8-Hour Ozone, 2008 8-Hour Ozone, Annual Small Particulates (PM2.5), and Daily Small Particulates (PM2.5) (Refer to Table 1 and Map 3 below). The 1997 8-Hour Ozone standard is set to be revoked effective July 20, 2013 (Refer to Map 4). After this standard is revoked three air quality areas (Toledo, Youngstown, and Lima) will no longer be considered air quality areas. Joint US EPA and US DOT regulations, embodied in 40 CFR 93, establish and define the linkage between transportation system investments and the SIP process for meeting and maintaining the national air quality standards. The regulations identify a process called Transportation Conformity, whereby US DOT funded or approved projects in air quality nonattainment and maintenance areas are analyzed to demonstrate their consistency with the SIP. The conformity process assures that federally supported highway and transit activities identified in Transportation Plans, Programs (this STIP), and projects “are consistent with (conform to) the purpose of the state air quality implementation plan (SIP). Conformity to the purpose of the SIP means that transportation activities will not cause new air quality violations, worsen existing violations, or delay timely attainment of the relevant national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS).” US DOT must issue a formal Conformity Determination for nonattainment and maintenance area MPO Transportation Plans and the STIP (inclusive of MPO TIPs) concurrent with approving the STIP and prior to approving federal funding for “regionally significant” (capacity additions) transportation system improvement projects identified in the STIP. Conformity for MPO Transportation Plans and Programs (this STIP) is established based on analyses of estimated aggregate regional emissions of vehicles traveling the transportation networks documented in Transportation Plans and the STIP. The aggregate Plan/STIP networks emissions (pollution) estimates are then compared to maximum allowable emission thresholds identified in the SIP. Conformity is demonstrated when the Plan/STIP emissions are below the SIP emissions thresholds. Project level conformity analyses are performed separately and are typically documented federally required environmental publications. Ohio’s Ozone and PM2.5 nonattainment and maintenance areas are concentrated around Ohio’s major metropolitan regions. The areas’ geography boundaries, however, include both counties that are within the boundaries of an Ohio MPO and non-MPO area (rural) counties. This geography results in projects necessitating air quality conformity analyses being recorded in both the MPO TIPS and in non-MPO counties, the STIP. Similarly, the resulting conformity analyses combine both MPO and non-MPO geography and data inputs to develop emissions data needed to provide complete geographic coverage for each Ohio nonattainment/maintenance area conformity demonstration. ODOT and the affected MPOs engage in extensive consultation and coordination to complete the conformity demonstrations. The complete air quality conformity documentation for each Ohio nonattainment/maintenance area is included in the affected MPO TIP. See Table 1 below identifying the nonattainment/maintenance areas and the affected MPOs. Every MPO that has air quality nonattainment or maintenance geography inside the organizations planning boundary is required to show conformity for each Transportation Plan update and TIP. The latest conformity analysis performed for a MPO’s Transportation Plan is typically utilized for the TIP air quality analysis given that no projects have changed the year open for construction during the TIP time period. Twelve MPOs will rely on previous emissions analysis from the last
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 12
Transportation Plan update (Cincinnati, Dayton, Lima, Parkersburg, Springfield, Toledo, Steubenville, Wheeling, Akron, Canton, Youngstown, and Cleveland). Four of these emissions analysis will occur in the second half of FY 2014 (Akron, Canton, Youngstown, and Cleveland). MORPC (Columbus) and LCATS (Newark) will perform a new air quality analysis for their FY 2014-2017. One of Ohio’s MPOs does not have any air quality nonattainment or maintenance areas within their geography (Mansfield). Sandusky has a small air quality area within their planning boundary; however, it’s covered by the Cleveland air quality analysis. Huntington is an air quality area; but, because of a SIP mobile sources insignificance finding, they are not required to demonstrate conformity for the TIP. Note: ODOT consulted electronically with its District partners to identify regionally significant projects for non-MPO areas. ODOT Districts 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 11 all confirmed that no regionally significant projects in their rural air quality geographies are programmed for 2014-2017.

4. ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
Environmental Justice (EJ) is “the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations and policies. Fair treatment means that no group of people, including racial, ethnic, or socio-economic groups should bear a disproportionate share of the negative environmental consequences resulting from industrial, municipal, and commercial operations or the execution of federal, state, local and tribal programs and policies.” Through the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) and continuing with the Transportation Equity Act for the 21 Century (TEA-21), the law requires evaluation of the effect of transportation programs, projects and policies on low income and minority populations. The three basic principles of EJ are to:
1. Ensure public involvement of low-income and minority groups in decision making. 2. Prevent disproportionately high and adverse impacts of decisions on low-income or
minority groups. 3. Assure low income and minority groups receive proportionate share of benefits.
In general, this means that for any program or activity for which federal funds will be used the agency receiving the federal funds must make a meaningful effort to involve low income and minority populations in the decision-making process. The agency must evaluate the nature, extent and incidence of favorable and adverse human health or environmental impacts of the program or activity upon minority and/or low income populations. Identifying Target Populations Typically low income and minority populations are spread throughout the regional area and state but are likely to be located in concentrated locations or neighborhoods. These areas should have a significantly higher percentage of low income and minority populations than the regional or state wide average. These areas can then be identified as “target areas”. For the purposes of the STIP, ODOT identified counties having higher percentages of low income or minority populations than the statewide average percentage. The following maps (Map 5 and 6- low income and Map 7 and 8- minority) show the Ohio counties with target populations for low income and minority populations. ODOT used data from the 2010 census data for minority data and the 2007-2011 American Community Survey (ACS) data to determine targeted counties.
Public Involvement of Targeted Populations The general public has several opportunities to be involved in ODOT’s program decision making process. Planning and project level studies provide opportunities for public input and comment on initial decisions and specific project development activities. Special attention is given in ODOT’s Public Involvement Process to these populations in advertising and public involvement activities. Specific details of these efforts are outlined in Appendix 3.
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 18
Analysis Ohio is a very diverse state in terms of population density, traffic volume, number of miles of roadway, and other demographic, socio-economic, and physical factors. As an example, counties with large metropolitan cities typically have higher overall minority populations than more rural counties. This makes any comparison of projects between areas and the distribution of benefits difficult. In its analysis, ODOT evaluated targeted areas and totaled projects by county and ODOT district. This included the physical factor of total lane miles by ODOT district for the state highway system. These are some of the key factors used in making highway maintenance decisions.
The percentage of the statewide population considered low income is 14.75 percent and a minority is 17.30 percent. Fifty-four (54) percent of the total STIP investment will be focused in the seven counties that exceed the statewide average for minority population. Also, the highest minority percentage is in Cuyahoga County which is projected to receive the highest amount of project funding. Sixty-nine (69) percent of the funding and fifty-four (54) percent of the projects will be focused in counties with the low income percentage exceeding the statewide average. Eighty-seven (87) percent of transit funding is focused in low income communities. Eighty-four (84) percent of transit funds are concentrated in counties with a high minority population, targeting populations that rely more heavily on public transportation. For those ODOT districts with a population exceeding the statewide average for low income, fifty-four (54) percent of the lane miles are being improved. A review of the information presented in Table 3 and on Maps 5 - 8 confirms the diversity in the region. Appendix 2 shows the breakdown of the analysis by each specific county.
The MPO’s are responsible to demonstrate in their TIPs the analysis of their regional areas. Their analysis shows a more distinct picture of the impacts of projects due to the detailed block-group census data that is used in their analysis.
Conclusion ODOT has reviewed the targeted population areas, and the projects scheduled in those areas within the four year STIP. Based upon this review and the map analysis shown in Appendix 2, ODOT believes that a reasonable distribution of benefits is scheduled to be made with this program of projects. This includes all projects, transit, maintenance and new construction. In addition, ODOT could not identify any “disproportionate burden” on any targeted population in Ohio from projects listed in this STIP. The review of the EJ impacts of the specific projects is or will be evaluated and addressed through mitigation, minimization, or avoidance as part of the project development and NEPA processes.

5. FY 2012-2015 STIP STATUS Over the past two years, ODOT has implemented most of the projects which were included in the 2012-2015 STIP. Some projects were delayed (due to funding, environmental impacts, etc.), some were canceled, and some had schedules adjusted due to changing conditions. During FYs 2012-2013 of the 2012-2015 STIP, a total of 11 “regionally significant” projects or those projects $25 million or greater (as defined by ODOT for FHWA projects) went to construction. These 11 projects totaled over $742 million in contract awards. A list of regionally significant projects and current implementation status is contained within Table 5 of this document. The complete picture of Fiscal Year 2013 will not be known until the conclusion of the current fiscal year, when the FY 2014-2017 STIP is approved. Table 4 is a summary of the FY 2012-2013 construction contracts sold and the estimated FY 2013 final program. The table shows the number of construction projects sold and total contract dollars by ODOT District. In Appendix 4, ODOT has provided a table of projects that are listed in the 2012-2015 STIP and are expected to obtain Federal Authorization in 2013 but will not be awarded until 2014. If Federal Authorization is not obtained, these projects will be added to the 2014-2017 STIP by administrative modification or by amendment following the guidance of FHWA.

6. ODOT CAPITAL PROGRAMS ODOT divides the funding received from the state legislature and the U.S. Congress into specific capital programs. Below is a brief description of each of the programs. In-depth descriptions of the programs, eligibility, and evaluation criteria are available in various publications as noted. Table 7 lists the web links for each publication mentioned. Figure 1 shows the budget of each program. District Pavement
The state highway system in Ohio is divided into three categories: the priority system, the general system, and the urban system. The priority system includes interstate routes and four-lane divided highways; the urban system contains non-priority system routes within cities; and the general system makes up the remainder of the state system, generally two-lane highways. ODOT has set pavement condition goals for each system. Each ODOT District maintains a fiscally constrained multi-year work plan tailored to achieve the pavement condition goals. To view the district multi-year work plan and the pavement goals, visit the ODOT District Pavement/Bridge Work Plans at: http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/SPPM/SystemsPlanning/Pages/DistrictPavementBridgWorkPlans.aspx District Bridge
Approximately one-third of Ohio’s bridges are under ODOT’s maintenance responsibility. ODOT has set bridge condition goals that focus on the bridges critical structural elements. Each District maintains a fiscally constrained six-year plan tailored to achieve the bridge condition goals. TRAC/Major New
The Transportation Review Advisory Council (TRAC) was established by the Ohio General Assembly in 1997and charged with developing and overseeing a project selection process for major new transportation capacity projects. These are projects costing more than $12 million which add transportation capacity or reduce congestion, and are critical to the mobility, economic development, and quality of life of the citizens of Ohio. The TRAC has nine members and is chaired by the Director of the Ohio Department of Transportation. Six members are appointed by the Governor and one each by the Speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives and the President of the Ohio Senate. Members have overlapping terms. In accordance with the law, the Director of Transportation biennially provides the TRAC with a report on the money available for new construction for the following four-year period. The Director provides funds for new construction only after assuring that system preservation needs have been met. The use of the new construction funds is the responsibility of the TRAC, but the TRAC does not have authority over other aspects of the Department of Transportation. Funding applications are accepted annually. Major Bridge
The Major Bridge program was established in 2002 to provide funding for the rehabilitation or replacement of the largest and/or most complex structures carrying a state, U.S., or Interstate route which meet the major bridge criteria. There are currently 185 structures that are eligible for this program in the state of Ohio. For additional information on the major bridge program, refer to the ODOT Program Resource Guide or visit the ODOT Major Bridge website at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/SPPM/MajorPrograms/Pages/MajorBridge.aspx.
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 27
Priority System Major Rehabilitation
The purpose of this program is to provide funding for major rehabilitation projects on the priority system to restore the structural integrity and functional characteristics of the pavement. Projects are prioritized based upon system analyses. For additional information, please refer to the ODOT Program Resource Guide or visit the ODOT Priority System Major Rehabilitation website at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/SPPM/MajorPrograms/Pages/MajorRehab.aspx. Safety
ODOT’s Highway Safety Program focuses on high-crash, sever-crash, and congested locations on any public road in Ohio. The program is administered by the Office of Systems Planning and Program Management in conjunction with District Safety Review Teams located in each region of the state. Each year ODOT prioritizes safety locations using state-of-the-art statistical methodologies to identify roadway locations and safety improvements with the highest potential for reducing crashes. District offices are required to study these locations to identify improvements through an Annual Safety Work Plan. ODOT also prioritizes locations for review and funding assistance based on local and regional rankings developed by local governments and MPOs. For more information on the safety programs see the ODOT Program Resource Guide. Amish Buggy Program
Creating a safer transportation environment in which horse drawn buggies and motor vehicles can share state highways is the purpose of this program. Eligible locations are determined by buggy/motorized vehicle crash data from the previous five years. Activities include paved shoulders, buggy pull-off areas, and buggy climbing lanes. Additional information is located at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/SPPM/MajorPrograms/Pages/AmishBuggy.aspx. Aviation
The ODOT Office of Aviation is responsible for state aviation programs in Ohio. These programs include Airport Planning and Engineering, Grants Administration, Airport Pavement and Airport Safety Inspections, Airspace Protection, Aircraft Registration, Aviation Education Publications, and Enforcement of Ohio Aviation Laws. For additional information on the aviation program see the ODOT Program Resource Guide or visit the ODOT Office of Aviation website at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Operations/Aviation/Pages/default.aspx. County Bridge, Safety & Surface Transportation
ODOT allocates federal funds to the County Engineers Association of Ohio (CEAO) which manages these three programs. Each program has a separate project selection process and each county is eligible for these programs. The County Bridge Program funds bridge replacements and rehabilitation projects. In 2005 ODOT designated specific funds for safety, so the county programs were expanded to include a separate County Highway Safety Program, although many safety projects were previously funded under the Surface Transportation Program. The County Surface Transportation Program funds roadway related construction and study projects. For more details on these programs see the ODOT Program Resource Guide.
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 28
Transportation Alternatives
Transportation Alternatives eligible categories are: Bicycle & Pedestrian facilities; Safe routes for non-drivers; Environmental mitigation; Conversion and use of abandoned railroad corridors; Community Improvements such as construct turnouts, overlooks and viewing areas, preservation of historic transportation facilities and archaeological activities. ODOT allocates transportation alternative funds to the MPOs and keeps the remainder for a statewide project selection process. For details on the ODOT program and eligible projects see the ODOT Program Resource Guide. For information on the MPO Transportation Alternatives Programs see the individual MPO TIP. Federal Lands Access Program
The Federal Lands Access Program is administered and funded through the Eastern Federal Lands Highways Division (EFLHD) of FHWA. The goal of the program is to improve transportation facilities that provide access to, are adjacent to, or are located within federal lands. The program emphasis is on high-use recreation sites and economic generators. Projects are cooperatively selected and managed by ODOT, EFLHD, and the County Engineers Association of Ohio (CEAO). Funds may be used for planning, research, engineering, design, preventive maintenance, rehabilitation, restoration, construction, and reconstruction of highways, roads, parkways, transit facilities, adjacent vehicular parking areas, provisions for pedestrians and bicycles, acquisition of scenic easements, environmental mitigation, and rest areas. The list of EFLHD projects programed for the State of Ohio is listed in Table 6. For additional information, visit: http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/SPPM/MajorPrograms/Pages/ForestHighway.aspx. Geological Site Management
This ODOT program provides funding to repair land-slides and slips, rock falls, underground mine voids, and erosion projects. It includes reactive and proactive repair work. Research and experience shows that repairs done in the early stages of a problem can significantly reduce costs by avoiding a major failure. Additional information on this program may be found by visiting http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/SPPM/MajorPrograms/Pages/Geotechnical.aspx. Local Major Bridge
The Local Major Bridge Program provides federal funds to local governments for replacement or rehabilitation of ‘local major’ bridges. A major bridge is defined as a bridge that has greater than 35,000 square foot deck area or that is a lift or moveable structure. Currently, there are about 52 bridges statewide that have a local government owner and meet the definition of a local major bridge. These bridges are eligible for funding under this special program because of the high cost to rehabilitate or replace these bridges. Additional information on this program may be found in the ODOT Program Resource Guide. Maintenance
Routine maintenance of the state highway system is the main responsibility of the ODOT county garages. Each garage has a County Work Plan which details the work needed to maintain Ohio’s roadside conditions and for preventive maintenance activities. Examples of roadside conditions are guardrail, pavement repair, and brush cutting. Preventive Maintenance includes raised pavement makers, lighting, and mowing.
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 29
MPO & Large City
Ohio’s seventeen MPOs and five large cities, with populations between 25,000 and 49,999, (Findlay, Lancaster, Marion, Wooster, and Zanesville) receive annual federal fund budget allocations for financing local government sponsored surface transportation improvement projects within their regions. Each MPO and Large City establishes and maintains its own project selection processes and criteria. For more information on each MPO program see the TIP for that MPO area. The Large City programs of projects are recorded in this STIP. For additional information on this program see the ODOT Program Resource Guide. Municipal Bridge
The Municipal Bridge Program provides federal funds to municipal corporations and Regional Transit Authorities for bridge replacement or bridge rehabilitation projects. A funding limit of $2.5 million per project is set. ODOT will provide up to 80% of eligible costs for construction only. Currently, there are about 1,300 bridges statewide that have a municipal owner and meet the Federal definition of a bridge (20 feet or greater). Additional information on this program may be found in the ODOT Program Resource Guide. Noise Wall
ODOT allocates design and construction funding for Type II noise walls (new noise walls for communities that predate the freeway and desire a noise wall) and noise wall maintenance/replacement projects. For a community to be eligible for a Type II noise wall, a noise wall must be feasible and reasonable in accordance with 23CFR772, and the community must have completed application and petition forms for ODOT approval. Noise wall maintenance/replacement projects involve replacing noise walls that have met their life expectancy or coating aged noise walls for aesthetic purposes. Projects are selected and managed by the ODOT Office of Environmental Services in consultation with the Districts. For additional information on this program refer to the ODOT Program Resource Guide. Metro Parks
The Ohio Parks and Recreation Association manages this program which provides funds for park drives or roads within the boundaries of township or county parks and access roads from the parks to the state highway system. For additional information on this program refer to the ODOT Program Resource Guide or visit the ODOT Metro Parks Program website at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/LocalPrograms/Pages/MetroParksProgram.aspx Rail
Rail programs in Ohio are the responsibility of the Ohio Rail Development Commission (ORDC), which was formed by the Ohio General Assembly in 1994. The ORDC members are appointed by the Governor and the General Assembly. The Commission administers rail freight, passenger, and safety programs. One of the safety programs which directly impact the highway system is described below. For additional information, visit the ORDC’s website at: http://rail.ohio.gov.
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 30
Rail Safety Program
This program is administered by the ORDC to address the safety of highway-railroad grade crossings by improving the warning systems. It includes adding flashing lights, or gates and lights, at grade crossings and improving the existing electronics at crossings with antiquated systems. The individual railroad companies are an integral part of the program, both in funding and contracting for the work. More details can be found in the ODOT Program Resource Guide. Rest Areas
The goal of this program is the optimization of the agency’s 92 rest areas on the state highway system using generally accepted planning criteria in an effort to increase efficiencies through the reduction of both excess facilities and maintenance and operating expenses. For a list of Ohio’s rest areas, visit ODOT’s Office of Facilities Ohio’s Rest Area System’s website at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Facilities/Facilities/RestAreas/Pages/default.aspx. Safe Routes to School
This program was created by SAFETEA-LU. The purpose of this program is to provide a safer and more appealing environment for children to walk or ride their bikes to school. The funding is for a variety of engineering, education, enforcement, encouragement, and evaluation projects to address the overall safety and health benefits of walking or riding bikes to school. For additional information on this program refer to the ODOT Program Resource Guide or visit the program website at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/saferoutes. Small City
This program provides federal funds to cities with populations between 5,000 and 24,999 outside of MPO areas. Funds are available for constructions costs of transportation projects. For details on this program and selection criteria see the ODOT Program Resource Guide.

GUIDE TO DOCUMENTS
Resource Web Address ODOT’s Construction Cost Outlook and Forecast
The ODOT’s Office of Transit administers many programs using a variety of funding sources: federal, state, and local. The FTA is the major source of federal funding for both the urban and rural transit systems. Transit systems receive federal assistance for capital, operating, and planning expenses based on a FTA formula. FTA also offers discretionary grant opportunities, and ODOT offers a discretionary program to the urban systems through the Ohio Transit Preservation Partnership Program. These state programs involve both the rural and urban transit systems: Elderly and Disabled Transit Fare Assistance; Ohio Public Transportation Grant Program; and the Ohio Technical Assistance Program. Transit does not have a dedicated source of state funding. Local funds are derived from boards of county commissioners, municipalities, fares, local levies, and contract revenue, among other sources. MAP-21 and Transit
On July 6, 2012, President Obama signed into law MAP-21. This law, which took effect on October 1, 2012, reauthorized surface transportation programs including the FTA programs through federal FY 2014. This reauthorization amends the Federal Transit Laws codified in 49 USC Chapter 53. MAP-21 consolidated, repealed, or revised several of the existing transit programs in order to improve efficiency and track key goals and objectives. Similar to the highway programs, the decline of federal funding sources has placed an emphasis on the restoration and replacement of the nation’s aging public transportation infrastructure. These are just a couple of the changes under MAP-21: The New Freedom program was merged with Section 5310 to become the Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities program. The Jobs Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) program was repealed; however, JARC activities are eligible under Sections 5307 (Urban Public Transit) and 5311 (Rural Public Transit). FY2013 Apportionments and 2010 Census
The following FY2014-2017 STIP estimates are based on the new program structure, formulas, and authorized funding levels provided with MAP-21. These estimates take into account the 2010 census data which includes the designation of new urbanized areas. There are three transit systems that moved from rural to urban as a result of the 2010 census:
• Delaware County is now part of the Columbus urbanized area.
• Medina County is part of both the Cleveland urbanized area and Akron urbanized area.
• Warren County is part of the Cincinnati and Dayton urbanized areas.
Ohio also has two systems that moved from urban back to rural with their populations falling below 50,000:
• Sandusky is in Erie County.
• Washington County is no longer part of the Parkersburg urbanized area.

With the most recent census, Ohio has 27 urban systems and 34 rural systems. For more information on each of these transit systems, see the Status of Public Transit in Ohio published by the ODOT Office of Transit (see Table 7). 8. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Under the federal definition, operation and maintenance refers to the total function of the transportation system. Before considering expansion of the transportation system (additional lanes or new facilities), states must demonstrate that the existing transportation system is being maintained to acceptable performance levels and that the system is operating efficiently. ODOT routinely conducts analyses on the state highway system to determine the operating levels and the pavement conditions. Goals are established for pavement performance for each of the three state highway systems. Funds are allocated under the District Pavement and Bridge programs based upon the conditions of each District’s systems as it relates to the statewide system goals. The Capital Program Budgets detailed in Table 8 indicate the funding levels allocated towards preservation and new capacity to the existing transportation system. As shown in the table, the majority of ODOT’s funding is designated for maintenance or preservation of the existing state highway system. The only program which adds new capacity to the state highway system is the Major New Construction/TRAC program. ODOT accounts for additional operating costs, such as payroll, snow and ice removal, salt, mowing, etc., prior to establishing the Capital Program Budgets. ODOT has budgeted $750 million in SFY 2014 and $769 million in SFY 2015 for these operating costs.

9. FINANCE The STIP is a financially responsible and fiscally constrained program focused on ODOT’s goal to achieve a steady state of manageable and predictable conditions on Ohio’s transportation system and within the preservation budget. The guidance on Statewide Transportation Planning and Programming (23 U.S.C. 135) provides that projects in the STIP must be consistent with metropolitan TIPs and must reflect expected funding and priorities for programming. The program shall include a project, or an identified phase of a project, only if full funding can reasonably be anticipated to be available within the time period contemplated for its completion. Each of Ohio’s seventeen MPOs biennially develops a four-year TIP for their area. In each of these TIPs, the projects planned for financing with federal funds made available for use by these MPOs have previously been reviewed and determined to be within reasonable expected federal funding levels, as required. ODOT considers the TIPs to be in reasonable fiscal balance. The potential for financing the state sponsored projects in these TIPs and the state share of the local government sponsored projects, where applicable, is addressed here in conjunction with the analysis of the financing needs of the non-MPO projects. ODOT receives funds from the federal motor fuel tax through the following MAP-21 core funding programs: National Highway Performance Program (NHPP), Surface Transportation Program (STP), Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ), Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), Railway-Highway Crossings (set-aside from HSIP), and Transportation Alternatives. State funding sources include the state motor fuel tax, heavy truck registrations, General Revenue Fund, and miscellaneous sources, such as oversize/overweight permits and cell tower leases. Figure 2 shows each source’s proportionate share of ODOT’s revenue. State Transportation Budget
Under ODOT’s budgeting philosophy, the top priority is to fund debt service payments owed from past bond issuances, then secondly, basic departmental operations such as payroll, routine roadway maintenance, and snow and ice removal. The third priority is for system preservation, both pavements and bridges. There are additional programs for freeway reconstruction and major bridge rehabilitation and replacement. Without this sustained level of funding, the system would deteriorate quickly. The next priorities are safety, other state programs (such as geological site management, Amish buggy, and railroad safety). Funding local programs, including MPO allocations and county pavement and bridge, are the next priorities. The last priority in the budgeting process is Major New construction or major capacity addition projects. The ODOT program budgets in Figure 1 reflect these priorities. There were basic assumptions used in preparing ODOT’s budget for the 2014/2015 biennium:
• Slight growth in Motor Fuel consumption, 1.0% in FY 2014 and 2015.
• Federal Highway Revenues for FY14 at MAP-21 levels and zero growth thereafter.
• Highway bond debt payments (state and federal) will be approximately $300 M for FY 2014 and $296 M in FY 2015.
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 37
• State bond appropriations will be $100 M in 2014 and $120 M in 2015 and federal bonds will be $96 M in 2014 and $97 M in FY 2015.
• Payroll will decrease by 1% in FY 2014 and increases by 3% in FY 2015.
• Capital Preservation and Safety programs are funded at $1.13 B in FY 2014 and $1.18 B in FY 2015.
• Total Capital program will be $1.7 B in FY 2014 and FY 2015. The largest portion of the budget is designated for preservation of the existing system and safety improvements. The recently passed federal reauthorization bill, MAP-21, provides federal funding through September 30, 2014. Financial Analysis
The objective of the fiscal analysis is to show that the aggregate federal and state funding demand is within the total federal and state funding available each year, taking into consideration that federal funds specifically dedicated for a certain project or types of projects cannot be used to cover other project funding shortfalls. The analysis reflects that the STIP program is within ODOT’s federal and state funding capacity. It should be noted that while the STIP is based on state fiscal years which start July 1, federal apportionments are normally made on October 1, the start of each federal fiscal year. In the fiscal analysis this three month delay in receipt of federal apportionments is considered inconsequential because of prior year carry-overs, federal advance construction provisions, and the other funding flexibility provided under MAP-21. Overview and Assumptions
Projections of future state revenue, future federal apportionments, and obligation limitations are one step required for the fiscal analysis. Determining projects scheduled for each fund type is another required step. The project listing included in this document is for all eighty-eight counties in the state. The individual MPO TIPs include the project lists for their respective areas. The fiscal analysis summarizes federal and state funding demand by year for all ODOT and MPO programs. The following additional factors were also taken into consideration:
• Federal bonds are called Grant Anticipated Revenue Vehicles (GARVEE). The debt is issued in anticipation of the receipt of Federal-aid grant reimbursements in subsequent years. The bond funds are considered revenue and the debt service to repay the bonds are treated as project commitments or expenses to the overall program.
• “Block” Federal is not a specific funding type. It is a practice at ODOT to reserve federal and state funds in each project area for future Change Orders and unanticipated Preliminary Engineering and Right-of-Way modifications on projects. Each ODOT program reserves funds based upon the historic need in their program.
• Continued spending authority under MAP-21 contains provisions allowing transferability of funds between the core programs: National Highway Performance Program (NHPP),
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 38
Congestion Mitigation (CMAQ), Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), Transportation Alternatives (TA), and the Surface Transportation Program (STP). Transfers are completed if the needs within ODOT’s program require the core apportionments to be moved.
Flexible Federal Funding
Under provisions of MAP-21, Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds have the most open eligibility of the conventional federal funds and may be used on projects which are also eligible under other fund types. In addition, up to 50 percent of funds in the core programs (NHPP, CMAQ, HSIP and TA) can be transferred between programs each year. General Procedures
To demonstrate that this STIP is in reasonable financial balance, the aggregate federal and state share for all projects within MPO areas and non-MPO areas (including those projects sponsored by ODOT and local governments) was totaled by federal funding program and by year and compared to projected available funding. The National Highway Performance Program, Congestion Mitigation (CMAQ), Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), Transportation Alternatives (TA), and Surface Transportation Program (STP) are federal core programs and are evaluated jointly in consideration of the flexible funding provisions of MAP-21. In conducting the financial analysis, the various federal programs (Highway Planning and Research and Metropolitan Planning) funding categories were analyzed individually as these funds cannot be used to finance other projects. Each funding program budget is shown with the corresponding project demand estimates. The federal funding legislation contains discretionary programs. States apply for funding from each program for specific projects. Each program has separate funding eligibility. Funds are only available to states if the specific projects are selected for funding. The only funds accounted for in the analysis are those previously designated for a project. States do not receive an allocation of these funds; therefore, the project demand estimates and the funding budgets are the same for the discretionary funding programs. Transit funding was also established by MAP-21. The key difference is that most funding programs allocate the specific amounts to the individual transit system, not to the states for further allocation to the systems. These include Sections 5303, 5304, 5307, 5337, and 5339. Some of these programs are direct allocations and some have individual application processes. Section 5310 funds are allocated to each state to fund vehicles for Specialized Transportation programs. The states receive Section 5311 funds for further distribution to rural transit systems. There are individual application processes for Section 5316 and 5317. In most cases, the program budget and the project demand estimate are the same. Fiscal Constraint Table Assumptions
Table 9 below reflects that the STIP is in yearly fiscal balance from both the state and federal funding perspective. There are several assumptions which are reflected in this table. Payroll costs and other agency operational expenses, including State Bond Debt Service have been subtracted from the State Funds designated for project funding. These funds are used to match
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 39
federal funds and to fund other projects. The Local Match is the cumulated amount from all local governments committed to match federal and state dollars for projects included in this STIP. ODOT policy requires evaluation of the inflation rates and adjustment of project cost estimates, as necessary, every six months. Given current economic indicators, an inflation rate of 5.7% in calendar year (CY) 2013 is anticipated. However, due to greater uncertainty in CY 2014 a high-range forecast of 10% is predicted. Inflation is predicted to peak in CY 2015 at 5.9% with a gradual decline in CY 2016 (4.5%) and CY 2017 (4.0%). Beyond CY 2017, a long-run construction cost inflation rate of 4.0% is expected. (See the January 2013 Construction Cost Outlook and Forecast link in Table 7). The federal budgets used for this analysis are the apportionments from MAP-21 with an additional one percent growth per year through FY 2017. MAP-21 reauthorization was passed in July 2012 and provides apportionments through September 30, 2014. Innovative Finance
Using innovative financing tools allows ODOT the ability to develop and create innovative approaches to build, manage, maintain, and operate our transportation infrastructure. These tools assist ODOT in reducing costs, enhancing efficiency, and generating revenue. Types of innovative financing currently utilized by ODOT include Advance Construction and Public-Private-Partnerships (P3’s). Advance Construction
ODOT utilizes advance construction for the management of fund appropriations and obligation limitation provided by FHWA. Advance construction allows the department to gain federal authorization to begin federally eligible activities without obligating funding. At the time of authorization, FHWA is confirming that ODOT has followed all requirements necessary to execute a federal agreement. By placing the funds into advance construction, FHWA is not guaranteeing funding for the project but is indicating that the activities would be eligible. ODOT places most of its projects in advance construction at the time of authorization. There are some exceptions based on the expiration of funds and legislative requirements. The advance construction is placed into two groups. The first group is identified as short term. This group is used for projects in which the funding will be converted as project expenditures take place and are exhausted by the completion of the federally eligible activities. By utilizing advance construction, ODOT can convert its appropriations and obligation limitation for costs that are currently being incurred and maintain a balance throughout the federal fiscal year. The second group is identified as long term. This group is used primarily for GARVEE bonds and MPO or CEAO SIB (State Infrastructure Bank) loans that are utilized and managed by ODOT (see Table 9 for the Long Term Project List). The GARVEE bonds are retired utilizing future federal funding received through the active and future highway authorization bills. Prior to the bond sale, the entire amount of the bond is put into advance construction on the projects being funded with its proceeds. These amounts are then converted over an 8 to 12 year period to retire the bonds. These payments are made on either a level principal or level interest payment schedule depending on the bond structure. The SIB loans are loans taken out by a local sponsor, which are being paid off utilizing federal MPO or CEAO funding. These loans have a typical repayment term of 10 years and are
ODOT 2014-2017 STIP Page 40
paid down using a level principal amortization schedule. These loans typically have two annual payments due. At the designated payment dates, advance construction is converted in the amount of the federal participating principal and interest due. The short term advance construction rises and falls throughout the federal fiscal year based on ODOT’s needs for each program utilizing federal funds. At the beginning of each federal fiscal year (October 1), the balance is typically at its lowest of the year. Agreements are consistently authorized throughout the federal fiscal year with the advance construction balance typically peaking in June. ODOT also consistently converts advance construction to obligated funds throughout the federal fiscal year for costs as they are incurred. In June the amount being converted begins exceeding the amount of new advance construction. This is based on the peak of construction season and the requirement to use obligation limitation prior to the close of the federal fiscal year. The long term advance construction balance is based upon the sales of bonds or the establishment of a new SIB loan. The bonds are typically sold every 12 to 18 months based on ODOT’s needs. The long term advance construction peaks in bond sale year and is reduced as the bond retirement payments are made. Table 9 below shows the actual new advance construction totals for State Fiscal Year 2012 through 2013 and the estimated advance construction totals for State Fiscal Year 2014 and 2015 for both short term and long term.

With the passage of House Bill 114, ODOT has joined many other states in embracing Public-Private-Partnerships (P3’s) for delivery of public projects and services. P3’s can provide numerous benefits in the finance, design, construction, maintenance and operation of transportation facilities. ODOT is currently pursuing the development of the following P3 projects.
One of the first P3 projects for ODOT is the Innerbelt Bridge over the Cuyahoga River on Interstate 90 in downtown Cleveland (PID 82119). The demolition of the existing Interstate 90 Innerbelt Bridge and construction of the new eastbound bridge is the second phase of the Innerbelt Corridor projects in Cleveland. This project is being procured as a Design Build Finance (DBF). DBF is a P3 procurement comprised of a design build approach with construction risk financing provided as private debt or “gap financing” which is repaid over time by ODOT. For this project, the gap financing will be repaid in full during the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2016. The DBF approach will allow construction to begin in late 2013 or early 2014 advancing the project two to three years.
The Portsmouth Bypass project in Scioto County (PID 19415) is a new roadway east of Portsmouth, connecting U.S. Route 52 east of New Boston to U.S. Route 23 north of Lucasville. This project is being procured as a Design Build Finance Operate and Maintain (DBFOM) with availability payments. DBFOM with availability payments combines the complete spectrum of equity finance and delivery. The project is currently programmed using traditional funding sources; however, ODOT is considering using other financing tools such as the project being financed by the private partner with a combination of private debt and equity along with Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) loans through FHWA. ODOT would repay the private partner using availability payments for the capital and operations costs over a thirty year period provided the transportation facility meets the performance specifications of the public-private agreement.
The Brent Spence Bridge project (PIDs 89068 and 89077) replaces the 50 year old structure which carries Interstate 71 and Interstate 75 north and south over the Ohio River in the Cincinnati, Ohio, and Covington, Kentucky, region. The National Bridge Inventory lists the Brent Spence Bridge as functionally obsolete due to capacity, sight distance, and safety concerns. This project is in the early stages of development; however, ODOT anticipates that it will be delivered as a DBFOM project that will include private debt and equity, TIFIA loans, and toll revenue.
Conclusion
The fiscal summary confirms that this STIP is in fiscal constraint as to these federal funding categories and to overall state highway funding demand as presented in the following table. The aggregate funding demand each year is within available funding levels.

APPENDIX 3: PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT Public Involvement The public involvement activities for the FY 2014-2017 STIP have followed the procedures established in ODOT’s Public Involvement Policy. Public Involvement is a key component in STIP development. The Environmental Justice regulations also require meaningful effort to involve low income and minority populations in the processes established to make the decision about the use of federal funds. The draft 2014-2017 STIP along with the seventeen MPO TIPs, which included Transportation Plan air quality conformity documentation, were made available for public review and comment at thirty locations statewide from April 8, 2013 through April 19, 2013. The draft STIP was also made available at http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/Planning/STIP/Pages/comments.aspx for review and comment. Legal advertisements were placed in all of Ohio’s eighty-eight counties to announce the public review period for the draft STIP including the Call & Post African-American Newspaper in the Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus areas. An advertisement was also circulated in the Ohio Township Association Newsletter, Grassroot Clippings. Media releases were completed in each District to aide in statewide awareness. Webpages and Facebook were also utilized in several Districts and Central Office to provide a way for the public to access the STIP information and provide comments in an easily accessible electronic format. The district offices and MPOs held over thirty open houses/public meetings statewide to provide the public the opportunity to view and comment on the draft STIP. Tables were set up incorporating a variety of visualization techniques at the various public meetings including: laptops to view the draft STIP and TIPs; display maps detailing projects and locations; environmental justice and air quality conformity maps; and large display photos for regionally significant projects. Maps, booklets, comment sheets, and general information were readily available for the public to take home to review. District and MPO personnel were on hand to answer questions and provide information. Comments that were received ranged from complimenting the host on the facility set up to more detailed project specific questions. The deadline for comments was April 22, 2013. Each comment and question received was answered in a timely manner by District personnel with either an email or a letter. All STIP public involvement information is kept on file (including the various maps, handouts, comments and responses) and is available to view upon request.
