NTTFI • Status of FY 2013 Inventory Year submittals • Inventory Year 2013 is close to completion, should be completed by or shortly after 1st of the Year • Limited addition of mileage overall, most updates consisted of update to existing records • BIADOT to begin process of coordination with Tribes in “tightening up” the loose ends of the Inventory, i.e. • Ownership • Class • Construction Need • Surface type • Road Category
NTTFI • BIADOT-Central Office has had on-going issues with responding to data calls from various entities: Departmental, Congressional, Other Federal Agencies, etc. • General mileage, class, surface type, and ownership constitute a majority of the requests • “Condition” reports are reported on a quarterly basis, primarily for the BIA Road Maintenance program • Level-of-Service for Deferred Maintenance calculation purposes • GPRA reporting; % Acceptable for Roads & Bridges • IA-Performance Measures; Goals met/Goals not-met • Reporting relating to Departmental/Bureau level “Asset Management” has been a topic of discussion for the past few years
NTTFI • BIA mileage in 2013 NTTFI ≈ 31,400 miles ≈ 7,100 miles are Paved ≈ 4,700 miles are Gravel ≈ 15,700 miles are Earth/Primitive • Tribal mileage in 2013 NTTFI ≈ 26,100 miles ≈ 1,000 miles are Paved ≈ 1,400 miles are Gravel ≈ 11,250 miles are Earth/Primitive
NTTFI • Asset Management reporting: • Roads & bridges as “assets” • Liability • Discussions on “ownership” • Title ownership vs. Encumbrance (ROW) • In relation to maintaining of public access corridors • Rights-of-Way status for BIA-owned facilities • Assumptions by surface type: • Paved ~ +95% • Gravel ~ 70% • Earth/Primitive < 2%
NTTFI & Rights-0f-Way • BIADOT has need for better status of ROW • Simply “knowing” where ROW exists • Meet with Realty & LTRO leads from DC-Trust Services and the Office of Historical Trust Accounting(OST) on options • Also in talks with the National Tribal GIS association on mapping of BIA routes • Ensure goal of accurate reporting and role in Asset Management is complete and justifiable.
