Abstract
The FHWA and the State of California, acting by and through its Department of Transportation (Caltrans), propose renewing the MOU authorizing Caltrans' participation in the Categorical Exclusion Assignment program. This program allows FHWA to assign its authority and responsibility for determining whether certain designated activities within the geographic boundaries of the State, as specified in the proposed MOU, are categorically excluded from preparation of an environmental assessment or an environmental impact statement under the National Environmental Policy Act.
