Guidance

The purpose of the Governor’s Executive Order 2020-02 is to promote transparency in the decision making of state government. The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) has undertaken a comprehensive review of guidance documents, including policies, manuals, memoranda and final orders that could affect the rights and interests of persons outside of the agency. Guidance documents serve to clarify existing statutes and regulations by guiding actions and decisions made by ITD. This single web page is organized by subject and provides direct links to the guidance documents. Final orders and Hearing Officer Findings are also included for public knowledge and transparency, as well as their precedential value.

Within the topics and tabs on this web page are links to ITD guidance documents. ITD is one of the largest state government agencies, so there are a number of topic areas covered here. Above each table, there is a box in the upper left-hand corner that allows the web user to search for relevant documents by typing in a word(s). The search results will display all the content in that table which contain the search word(s). Whenever possible, ITD has used common word titles to help the public better locate guidance documents of interest.

Once a guidance document of interest has been found, the table includes information such as a description, the type of document it is, and whether it is based on a law or rule. A staff email point of contact and any plans for updating are also provided for each guidance document.

ITD intends to continue to refine this web page and keep the content current going forward.
