Information and guidance on these topics are from many sources, including:
- Federal, tribal, and state policies and protocols
- Federal, state and tribal guidance documents,
- Case law

Information contained in this website will be periodically updated as new policies, protocols, guidance and best practices are developed. Center for Environmental Excellence by AASHTO encourages users of this website to send in any additional or new information that would benefit transportation professionals, tribes and other parties involved in the consultation process.
