Memoranda of Understanding (Federal)
Some projects may be governed or affected by a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). An MOU is an executed understanding between TxDOT and other state or federal agencies. The purpose of an MOU is to guide both parties concerning their roles and responsibilities necessary to achieve effective coordination of project activities. MOUs are used to expedite the review process and minimize the required documentation for such items as:
- Funding
- Design criteria
- Construction
- Maintenance.
TxDOT has not negotiated MOUs for hydraulic design with any federal agencies.
