Sec. 710.311  Construction advertising.

    The State must manage real property acquired for a project until it 
is required for construction. Clearance of improvements can be scheduled 
during the acquisition phase of the project using sale/removal 
agreements, separate demolition contracts, or be included as a work item 
in the construction contract. On Interstate projects, prior to 
advertising for construction, the State shall develop ROW availability 
statements and certifications related to project acquisitions as 
required by 23 CFR 635.309. For non-Interstate projects, the oversight 
agreement must specify responsibility for the review and approval of the 
ROW availability statements and certifications. Generally, for non-NHS 
projects, the State has full responsibility for determining that right-
of-way is available for construction.
