Over the years, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) have continued to move forward with complex projects, "threading the needle," in an effort to avoid or minimize resources impacts. The on-going challenges have necessitated that cultural resources professionals at both agencies come up with new methods to identify sites, broaden perspectives, and re-evaluate past recommendations. All of these changes have come in the midst of an economic downturn, with less money for projects and compressed timelines to deliver jobs. Eight papers describe the experiences of both WSDOT and ODOT as the two agencies navigate the bumpy and often rutted road of transportation-related cultural resources management. Transportation-related cultural resources management (CRM) is one of the most challenging jobs in the historic preservation
