22 GLOSSARY Administrative Modification of the Transportation Improvement Program: A minor revision to a long- range statewide or metropolitan transportation plan, Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), or State- wide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) that includes minor changes to project/project phase costs, funding sources of previously included projects, and proj- ect/project phase initiation dates. It does not require pub- lic review and comment, redemonstration of fiscal constraint, or a conformity determination (in nonattain- ment and maintenance areas). Amendment of the Transportation Improvement Pro- gram: A revision to a long-range statewide or metropoli- tan transportation plan, TIP, or STIP that involves a major change to a project included in a metropolitan transporta- tion plan, TIP, or STIP, including the addition or deletion of a project or a major change in project cost, project/ project phase initiation dates, or design concept or scope (e.g., changing project termini or the number of through traffic lanes). Changes to projects included only for illus- trative purposes do not require an amendment. It requires public review and comment, redemonstration of fiscal constraint, or a conformity determination (for metropoli- tan transportation plans and TIPs involving “nonexempt” projects in nonattainment and maintenance areas). In the context of a long-range statewide transportation plan, it is approved by the state in accordance with its public involvement process. TIP Revision: In the context of this report, a revision inclu- sive of all adjustments to the Transportation Improve- ment Program, regardless of magnitude.

Federal legislation requires MPOs to adopt and regularly update a TIP identifying a prioritized list of projects covering a four-year period.
