PriceWaterhouse Coopers, 2010 for legislation through May 2010; Wagner, 2011 for legislation passed thereafter. 5. Brookings Metro Program analysis. 6. A column with an "N" indicates that statute explicitly forbids PPP agreement from containing a non-compete clause. 7. Brookings analysis of Jaime Rall "State Transportation PPP Enabling Statutes Relevant to Localities," National Conference of State Legislatures, March 2011; and Wagner, 2011. Note: While in Utah, prior state legislature approval is not needed to engage in a PPP contract, legislative approval is needed to establish or operate a tollway on an existing highway. Maryland PPP legislation requires legislative review of proposed PPP projects, instead of state legislative approval. | |||||||
