LPA Certification

Purpose of Certification

To ensure a sub-recipient agency has a fundamental understanding of the requirements in executing state and Federal Highway Administration rules.

Requirements for Certification

The Local Public Agency (LPA) must show a certified staff member when the cooperative agreement is signed. A certified staff member is defined as one that has taken the certification course, passed the final exam, and has the ability to advise on the execution of the project. The certified staff member may be different than the responsible charge.
