Summary

The bill rewrites parts of the highway‑project statutes to require that construction on major projects begin within six years after the commission recommends approval and after a draft environmental document is cleared. It adds a definition of “categorical exclusion,” ties a financing plan to the approval report, and lets the Department of Transportation submit a pre‑construction report to the commission for approval. The changes affect state highway projects, the transportation commission and the DOT.
