Subject. 2010-.2014 Draft Statewide Transportation Improvement Program
The Project Analysis Bureau of the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) will soon
publish the draft 2010 -2014 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), a list of
transportation improvements planned for Montana during the next five years. Federal law
requires MDT to present the draft STIP to the public and to consider all comments.
In the past, we have mailed over 900 copies of the draft STIP. In an effort to reduce costs, we
are offering you the opportunity to review and comment on the draft STIP on -line. To view
this document on your computer screen, go to www.mdt .mt.gov /pubinvolve /stip.shtml.
If you would like a hard copy, simply write your name and address on the enclosed postage -
paid card and mail it to us before May 14. We will be happy to send you the printed version.
If you want us to remove your name from the notification list, just fill out the card and check
the "remove" box.
Please review the draft STIP and send us your comments, especially for projects in your area.
If you send in your comments electronically, address them to glarson @mt.gov. The comment
period runs through June 18, so be sure to submit any comments prior to that date, so we can
consider them for the final document.
Once the Montana Transportation Commission approves the final STIP, we will notify you
that copies are available. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to call me at
(800)714 -7296 or (406)444 -6110.
Thank you for your assistance,
