Accordingly, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) requests comments, feedback and recommendations from interested parties by February 16, 2007, on the Draft Solicitation previously posted on November 1, 2006 at www.fedbizopps.gov under Solicitation Number DTFH61-07-RA-00106. This document is a draft solicitation for an upcoming competitive grant opportunity. Please provide email or written comments or questions to Ms. Sarah Tarpgaard at the contact information provided herein. FHWA intends to issue the final solicitation (the full announcement) at www.grants.gov under the Funding Opportunity Number DTFH61-07-RA-00106 on or about March 1, 2007, with an estimated proposal due date of April 16, 2007. FHWA's Highways for LIFE (HfL) is a discretionary program of SAFETEA-LU, funded at $75 million over four years, to demonstrate and promote state-of-the-art technologies, elevated performance standards, and new business practices in the highway construction process that result in improved safety, quality and user satisfaction, faster construction, and reduced congestion from construction work zones. The purpose is to accelerate the rate of adoption of proven innovations and technologies. The purpose of the Technology Partnership Program is to work with the highway construction industry to accelerate the adoption of promising innovations. Innovations is an inclusive term used by HfL to convey all of the following, but not limited to: technologies, materials, tools, equipment, procedures, specifications, methodologies, processes, or practices used in the financing, design, or construction of roads or highways. This component of the Highways for LIFE Program is intended to provide the financial impetus to adapt a proven non-highway related innovation or to refine or improve existing equipment, materials, practices, or processes that have been demonstrated but not become adopted as routine or common practice in the highway industry.
