How much in-depth involvement do the tribes have in the State Transportation Improvement Program process?
The involvement tribes have in the STIP process is dependent on the level of participation tribes have provided in terms of providing project proposals to district engineers, COGs, and the State Transportation Board. The more the tribe is involved, the better a chance for the STIP to address some of the tribal issues. The tribal STIP is also sent to FHWA and ADOT for inclusion in the STIP. Tribal STIP projects, other than BIA-IRR projects, must be sent to ADOT for inclusion in the priority programming process. There is Transportation Board meeting input required from different levels of representatives from the tribes.
