Because our May 2009 review of concrete state highways and several recent single audit reports for the State of Wisconsin found that DOT did not always follow its quality assurance program, we examined quality assurance procedures for asphalt state highways. We found that construction engineers performed 181 of the 193 tests (93.8 percent) required by DOT to measure the density of asphalt pavement on 41 projects constructed in 2009. We also found that DOT has improved its documentation of contractors' roughness measurements.
We appreciate the courtesy and cooperation extended to us by DOT in completing this review.
Sincerely,
janice mueller
State Auditor
