Legislative Oversight Mechanisms

Ongoing oversight by legislative committee(s) or commission(s); interim charges; legislative program reviews or performance audits; reporting requirements; legislative requests for information. The NDOT Director is required to submit a performance report to the Board of Directors and the Legislature's Interim Finance Committee (Nev. Rev. Stat. §408.133). The Interim Finance Committee reviews executive branch fiscal and programmatic operations during each interim and considers modifications to NDOT's biennial work program when necessary. Other interim committees are occasionally formed to review state financing of highway construction and other projects. The Legislative Council Bureau's Fiscal Analysis Division provides ongoing fiscal and programmatic oversight of NDOT's interim activities.
