Project Development Procedures Manual Appendices – Preface Appendices Preface Contents The appendices contain the preparation guidelines, report templates, and forms for the various procedural documents and reports that serve as either project initiation documents or project approval documents. Division of Design Document Format Some of the documents in these appendices are designed and administered by the Division of Design. The Division of Design takes responsibility for seeing that the Project Development Procedures Manual (PDPM) contains current copies of the documents and guidelines for these documents. Format for Other Documents Other documents in these appendices were created and are administered by other divisions in Caltrans. While the Division of Design may have written guidelines for some of these documents, Division of Design does not maintain current, computerized files for them; it is recommended that the administering division be contacted for questions regarding availability.

Until such time that the specific reference becomes available on the internet, the user will have to contact their district liaison, Caltrans project manager, or the appropriate Headquarters division to inquire about the availability of the reference. Use of Project Study Report-Project Report The project study report-project report (PSR-PR) eliminates the separate processing of a project initiation report (PID) and a project report (PR) and is used to obtain project approval for projects-funded-by-others. A project-funded-by-others is a highway improvement project that is sponsored by a local agency or private developer and does not use any State or federal funds, nor federal reimbursements. See Chapter 9 – Project Initiation and Chapter 12 – Project Approvals and Changes to Approved Projects for additional considerations. Preparation of Project Study Report-Project Report Article 2 “Template” presents the template that can be used for the PSR-PR. Use Appendix L – Preparation Guidelines for Project Study Report and Appendix K – Preparation Guidelines for Project Report for guidance in preparing the PSR-PR. Use checklists discussed in Appendix L – Preparation Guidelines for Project Study Report to properly scope the project. The template was created for broad application and, as such, portions of the template may not strictly apply to all transportation projects. The template should be modified to include or exclude sections so that pertinent project deficiencies, issues or coordination are clearly presented. The preparer of the report should evaluate the number of the alternatives and the complexity of the issues to determine whether to Project Development Procedures Manual 09/28/2018 A-3 Appendices Project Development Initiation and Approval Reports organize the information by alternatives or issues. The space for filling in various sections of the template is condensed for practical viewing of the template. As appropriate, each section can be expanded to accommodate necessary information. Approval of Project Study Report-Project Report The District Director (or Deputy District Director if identified in Caltrans’ delegation of authority) is responsible for approval of the PSR-PR. ARTICLE 2 Template This article is a template for the project study report-project report. When using the template, delete any italicized text within the body of the document. The italicized text provides instructions for template users and does not provide any value to the final document.

The project report (new highway planting) is also the project approval document for State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) projects in the 20.XX.025.700 – Interregional Improvement Program Highway Projects and 20.XX.075.600 – Regional Improvement Program Highway Projects. The project repo rt (roadside rehabilitation) is the project approval document for roadside preservation SHOPP projects in the 20.XX.201.210 – Roadside Rehabilitation Program. Preparation of Project Report (New Highway Planting or Roadside Rehabilitation) These guidelines provide information to be used with the requirements described in Chapter 10 – Formal Project Studies, Chapter 12 – Project Approvals and Changes to Approved Projects, and Chapter 29 – Landscape Architecture. The following guidance is tailored to highway planting projects. See Appendix K – Preparation Guidelines for Project Report for fundamental guidance on the preparation of project approval documents. The project report (new highway planting or roadside rehabilitation) should be prepared using the report template associated with this appendix, see Article 3. The report should be similar in organization, but can vary based on features, complexity and issues specific to each project. Modify the report format to include information Project Development Procedures Manual 01/10/2014M D-3 Appendices Project Development Initiation and Approval Reports that is pertinent to the scope, cost and schedule of project. If a section is not applicable to the project, fill in as “Not applicable.” ARTICLE 2 Outline General The project report (PR) outline located in Appendix K – Preparation Guidelines
