County road administration board staff will review all prospectuses and ensure that:

1. (1) All necessary information is included;
2. (2) The project is eligible for LRP funding;
3. (3) The project schedule indicates that preliminary engineering will begin not later than one year from the date of project approval by the county road administration board, and that the construction of the project will begin not later than four years from the date of project approval by the county road administration board; and
4. (4) The total project priority rating is mathematically correct and the visual rating scores determined during the field review are included.

5. (5) Existing and proposed roadway cross sections, project narrative, and preconstruction photos are attached.

   After county road administration board staff review, all accepted prospectuses will be placed in a declining total project rating array. After review by the county road administration board at its next regular meeting, the priority array for each project type will be provided to each county. These arrays will be preliminary only and will be provided to the counties to assist them in their internal budgeting and programming. No notations as to whether a particular project will or will not be funded will be included. Projects not adopted in the six-year transportation program by board's process outlined in WAC 136-720-060 will be dropped from the array of eligible projects and the revised array will be presented to the county road administration board.
