Discussion of General Comments
Many respondents agreed with the intent and the concepts proposed in both the NPA and the SNPA. In analyzing the comments to the SNPA, FHWA decided that additional clarification should be provided in the MUTCD text and in the explanations provided in the final rule in order to address the following five major issues:
(1) Clarification of compliance period;
(2) Resource burdens on public agencies;
(3) Statutory requirements;
(4) Table of minimum retroreflectivity levels in the MUTCD; and
(5) Impacts of sign retroreflectivity on safety.
