Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 96 / Wednesday, May 20, 2009 / Notices
that signature authority remains as
agreed to with the Deputy District
Director.
During the audit, the audit team
learned of two memos, dated October
2007, that delegated, for six Districts,
the signature of individual Section 4(f)
Evaluations to the Environmental Office
Chiefs and the signature of EISs to the
Environmental Division Chief or the
District Director.
This delegation is inconsistent with
the FHWA clarification letter.
Additionally, Chapter 38 of the SER is
inconsistent regarding this delegation of
signature authority for Draft EISs,
indicating two different delegation
signature authorities, one to the Deputy
District Director and one to the Deputy
District Director for Environmental
Planning, in the sections ‘‘Signature
Authorities’’ and ‘‘Signature Protocols.’’
(D4) Assignment of Section 6002
Responsibility under the Pilot
Program—Under MOU section 3.2.2,
Caltrans is responsible for complying
with the requirements of any applicable
environmental law. Therefore, Caltrans
is responsible for complying with
SAFETEA–LU section 6002 (23 U.S.C.
139) which defines provisions of the
environmental review process. The
SAFETEA–LU section 6002(d)(23 U.S.C.
139(d)) states that a Federal lead agency
for a highway project conducting a
NEPA process under section 6002, in
this case Caltrans, ‘‘shall identify, as
early as practicable in the
environmental review process for a
project, any other Federal and nonFederal agencies that may have an
interest in the project, and shall invite
such agencies to become participating
agencies in the environmental review
process for the project.’’
In three of the six EIS project files
reviewed, there were participating
agency invitations sent out to only 5 to
10 agencies per project. For those
projects, the audit team, thorough
interviews and review of project files,
learned that more local, State, Federal,
or tribal governmental agencies, either
may have or already had, expressed an
interest in the project and were
therefore required to be an invited
participating agency.
The Caltrans’ third self-assessment
included a section on ‘‘Understanding
of Section 6002 Requirements,’’ and did
not report any finding that requires a
corrective action.
Based on its review of project files
and interviews with Caltrans staff, the
audit team finds Caltrans’ compliance

with its Pilot Program responsibilities to
be deficient with regard to the intent
and requirements of SAFETEA–LU
section 6002 regarding inviting
participating agencies.
(D5) Corrective Action for Audit
Deficiency—In three of the project files
reviewed by the audit team that
contained a class of action
determination documentation, the class
of action determination concurrence
was issued the day before the third
audit began, or actually, in two
instances, the concurrence was issued
during the audit. This is a failure to
fully address the deficiency,
‘‘Environmental Document Process—
Class of Action Determination,’’ noted
in the previous audit.
