JANUARY 2023 UPDATE
The MMT appreciates the comments received on the proposed Merger MOU and guidance documentation. Our MMT responses to the comments are now posted online here: 2022 Merger Comment Responses. Please let us know if you have any questions regarding these comment responses.
Based on the comments and our collective interests in beginning to implement the updated processes, we anticipate signing the MOU shortly and subsequently rolling out the final guidance and training materials. Thank you again for all of your input that has helped us shape these updates, from the initial brainstorming sessions to detailed review of the draft guidance. We look forward to continual improvement to the Merger Process that helps us all achieve the best possible outcomes for NCDOT projects!

The Merger Management Team (MMT - made up of NCDOT, USACE, NCDWR and FHWA staff) have worked hard to review and improve our processes.

We are releasing these drafts to encourage interagency review and get comments incorporated throughout all these products.
