The Michigan Department of Transportation and local public agencies have a mutual goal of providing a quality and cost-effective transportation system while ensuring federal and state funding participation.  This is accomplished through MDOT’s Local Agency Program.

Per Title 23 of the Code of Federal Regulations, [https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=4f4c8515fcb6873787857e30df84a31b&mc=true&node=pt23.1.635&rgn=div5#se23.1.635_1105 23 CFR 635.105], MDOT is responsible for the construction of all FHWA Federal-aid projects in the state and is not relieved of such responsibility by authorizing performance of the work by a local agency.

While the CFR does not relieve MDOT of overall project responsibility, it does permit MDOT to allow local agencies to perform construction engineering services for their LAP projects, provided:
 
−
#The local agency is adequately staffed and suitably equipped to undertake and satisfactorily complete the work.
 
−
#The local agency assigns a responsible charge to the project.  The responsible charge must be a full-time employee of the local agency.
 
−
#MDOT provides a full-time employed State engineer to be in responsible charge of the project.

In addition to the CFR, there is a [https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/federalaid/stewardship/agreements/mi.pdf Stewardship and Oversight (S&O) Agreement] detailing the arrangement between FHWA’s Michigan Division and MDOT regarding agency roles and responsibilities with respect to federal-aid projects approvals, related duties, and oversight activities.  The CFR and S&O are the basis of MDOT’s Local Agency Program oversight activities.
