In those cases when a county desires to combine a LRP funded project with one or more adjacent non-LRP funded projects, the county, prior to advertising for the construction contract, or prior to commencing construction should any of the projects be scheduled for completion by county forces, shall notify the county road administration board in writing of its plans to combine the projects into a single construction project, assuring in writing that the work items assigned to the LRP funded section will remain distinct and separate through the bid documents and contract plans.
Upon verification that the request is submitted in a timely manner, that the combined project will meet the conditions of the CRAB/county contract and prospectus requirements, and that LRP funded items of work will be sufficiently separated from other work, the CRAB director will respond in writing to grant the combination. Projects shall be considered adjacent if they have a common terminus.
Federally funded projects are not eligible to combine with LRP funded projects.
