1 Research Initiatives at TxDOT Related to Utilities and Right of Way Transportation Research Board Workshop on Transportation Law, New Orleans, LA July 17, 2012
2 Overview 2 TxDOT utility/right of way research projects Recently completed (3) Completing this FY (2) Starting this FY (1)
3 Projects Recently Completed 3 Integrating Utility Conflict Elimination and Environmental Process (0-6065, 2010) Feasibility and Applications of RFID Technologies to Support Right of Way Functions (0-6142, 2010) Evaluation of Overweight Load Routing on Buried Utility Plant (0-6394, 2011)
4 Integrating Utility Conflict Elimination and Environmental Process (0-6065) Better utility data during preliminary design? Increasing the level of definition of design components during preliminary design? 4
5 Integrating Utility Conflict Elimination - Results Conclusion: Yes/Yes! 10 optimization strategies Involve environmental and right-of-way staff in planning and programming Include some design elements during preliminary design Address utility issues in constructability review during preliminary design 5
6 Integrating Utility Conflict Elimination - Products Educational materials PowerPoint, handouts Business process model TxDOT business process explorer (TxBPE) 6
7 RFID Technologies to Support Right of Way Functions (0-6142) Feasible to use RFID technologies to manage utilities (and other assets) in the ROW? Identified potential applications of RFID technology Laboratory evaluation of RFID tags in a range of buried applications High-level RFID software integration schema for RFID application to asset management Cost-benefit analysis of RFID technologies 7
8 8 RFID Technologies to Support Right of Way Functions (0-6142) 8 8
9 RFID Technologies to Support ROW Results Conclusion: Depends Retroactive implementation of RFID would be challenging Extensive use necessary before benefits can be realized Concern over RFID functionality of life of buried utilities (20-50 years) Benefit for RFID during utility relocation 9
10 Evaluation of Overweight Load Routing on Buried Utility Plant (0-6394) Assessment of potential impact of overweight loads on buried utilities adequacy of Utility Accommodation Rules to deal with overweight loads on buried utilities Recommendations for business process for TxDOT overweight routing coordination changes to TxDOT manuals changes to the UAR 10
11 Evaluation of Overweight Load Routing - Activities Review of technical design and engineering requirements, UAR, TxDOT business process for overweight load permitting Stakeholder outreach Impact analysis Sensitivity analysis, finite element analysis Lab testing Jointed and unjointed PVC pipe Jointed concrete pipe 11
12 12 Evaluation of Overweight Load Routing 12 on Buried Utility Plant (0-6394)
13 Evaluation of Overweight Load Routing - Results Current UAR standards for water and sanitary sewer appear adequate Recommendation for depth of cover to improve consistency and clarity Sharing of vulnerable utility facility locations with TxDOT permit routing system 13
14 Projects Completing This Year 14 Improving the Response and Participation by Utility Owners in the Project Development Process (0-6624) Best Practices for Utility Investigations in the TxDOT Project Development Process (0-6631)
15 Improving Participation by Utility Owners in Project Development (0-6624) Strategies to encourage earlier, effective participation by utility owners Recommendations for changes to business processes and manuals Potential changes in laws and regulations Implementation plan and guidebook Draft materials for regional workshops 15
16 Improving Participation by Utility Owners Project Focus Modernization of the utility process Use of utility conflict matrices (UCMs) and associated procedures Streamlining and standardization of utility cost data submissions Implementation plan and requirements for core skill training 16

Right of Way Map, Authorization to Acquire Property, Property Acquisition, and Relocation Assistance Acquisition Relocation Assistance Advisory Provide preliminary input to planning and programming Conduct preliminary Includes enter project information right of way into ROWIS and request right of research way CSJ Coordinate with other stakeholders on engineering, potential relocation, and hazmat issues Prepare right of way map and property descriptions Approve right of way map and enter data into TxDOT systems Obtain right of way project release Required documents: Approved right of way map Environmental clearance Executed funding agreements Conduct appraisal Establish just compensation Prepare written offer Prepare and execute joint-use/ multiple-use agreements Acquire by negotiation Acquire by condemnation Require owner to surrender possession Determine relocation assistance eligibility Project phase divider. Prepare right of way and encroachment certifications Provide relocation assistance advisory (residential) Provide relocation assistance advisory (non-residential) Issue relocation payments (residential) Issue relocation payments (non-residential) Property Management Disposal of improvements can not begin until the State owns the improvements and should be completed before construction begins unless disposal is in the construction contract. Notes: Property management activities are arranged for presentation purposes only. They do not indicate specific duration or an ordered sequence. Some activities are not part of the project development and delivery process. They are shown here for completeness because they are normally included in the property management function at state DOTs.
