A detailed analysis of the change in health insurance premiums before and after federal premium tax credits ("subsidies") from 2014 to 2015.

Overall, Colorado districts succeeded in administering the state's first online state wide assessments. Challenges were encountered along the way; however, districts and schools were committed to working through them in a manner that allowed students to complete testing. Lessons learned during the science and social studies administration and the PARCC administration will be invaluable to improving next year's assessment administration. Many of the issues and concerns expressed by districts affirmed the list of improvements that had already been identified and prioritized by CDE. CDE will continue to work with districts, schools, Pearson and PARCC to support districts in continuously improving future online administrations.
This Environmental Assessment (EA) has been prepared for the Federal Boulevard Improvements Project. The stretch of Federal Boulevard in the Project Area is lined by commercial development with residential development behind the businesses. Federal Boulevard serves as a high travel-demand traffic corridor. This is a local-agency project sponsored by the City and County of Denver (CCD) in conjunction with CDOT and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) serving as joint lead agencies.
The purpose of this Manual is to provide guidance on preparing and processing documents that comply with NEPA and other applicable state and federal environmental laws affecting transportation projects in Colorado. This Manual provides references and links to related federal and state laws, executive orders, regulations, and policies. It also provides "best practice" examples for various compliance processes where appropriate. It is intended that CDOT staff, local agency representatives, and consultants use this Manual to implement NEPA in an effective manner, producing more consistent, improved environmental documents that decision-makers may use to make well-informed transportation decisions.
