RRD
will request the district railroad
coordinator setup and obtain construction CSJs through
the TxDOTCONNECT system
for all Section 130
projects
which will use
federal funding to reimburse
the railroad companies, district work and/or local governments. The
district will update TRIMS with the CSJ and inform RRD.
For non-let railroad work, RRD will request Finance
Division's Letting Management Section (FIN) to setup a project number
and obligate funds once a draft agreement including signed Plansets/ SOW
and railroad estimates are completed.
FIN
will request each quarter that the
Finance Division Letting Management Section provide construction
CSJs for each of the planning CSJs. The Finance Division Letting
Management Section will create a new FPAA to include the construction
CSJs for an amount based on estimates to be paid out to railroad
companies and local governments. FHWA will review and approve the
FPAA. FIN will then setup the CSJs in PeopleSoft and notify
RRD of the Federal Project Number.
RRD will update TRIMS and the final plan sets with
the proper numbers before sending the agreements to the railroad
companies for final execution.
For let Section 130 funded projects, the district
will notify RRD of the CSJ and let date (see Section 2 for further
detail). The project will be coordinated as a typical maintenance
and construction project (including obligation by FIN prior to letting).
