FHWA Environmental Tracking System
Project and Program Action Information System (PAPAI)
The ability to accurately track the length of time required to complete the NEPA process is an essential component of the environmental streamlining performance measure. PAPAI helps FHWA identify some of the factors that may affect the efficiency of the NEPA process. PAPAI aids FHWA’s ability to monitor project progress between major milestones throughout project delivery. In addition, PAPAI can also accurately determine the total processing time from initiation of EIS, EA, and Categorical Exclusion (CE) to the approval of the final decision document.
Federal Permitting Dashboard
The Permitting Dashboard is an online tool for Federal agencies, project developers, and interested members of the public to track the Federal government’s environmental review and authorization processes for large or complex infrastructure projects, part of a government-wide effort to improve coordination, transparency, and accountability.
