The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has announced several upcoming, in-depth webinars regarding the final rule on the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (Uniform Act), which was published in the Federal Register on May 3, 2024. The final rule became effective June 3, 2024.
This final rule amends the government-wide Uniform Act regulations at 49 CFR part 24. The revisions were prompted by the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), which increased statutory relocation benefits and reduced length of occupancy requirements. The FHWA included updates on streamlining processes to better meet current Uniform Act implementation needs and eliminating duplicative and outdated regulatory language. The final rule also includes important equity updates, including increases in the relocation benefit levels to account for inflation.
In-depth presentations on each subject matter area covered by the rule have been scheduled. Click the link to register for the sessions and for information on the date and time of each session:
