Review of Inconsistencies Between SUDAS and Iowa DOT Specifications Phase III: Continued Implementation of Recommendations into SUDAS Specifications, TR-607, 2010

The objective of the Phase 3 project was to re-write the identified sections of the SUDAS specifications into the imperative mood, consistent with the format utilized during the Phase 2 project and other work completed by SUDAS staff. Figures for the identified sections were updated to match the new SUDAS format, similar to the Iowa DOT Standard Road Plans. While the Iowa DOT does not intend to incorporate all of the following sections into their specification book, consistency with the Iowa DOT specifications was strived for wherever possible. Maintaining consistency between the specifications simplifies design, bidding, and construction.

Title III-E Report YTD 1st Quarter-4th Quarter 2007

Family Caregiver Support Program (Title III-E) - The Administration on Aging (AoA) has determined that for Title III-E, the actual family caregiver is the client, not the older person receiving the services. Iowa NAPIS (National Aging Program Information System) collects and reports Title III-E service/performance data and related program management information to the federal and state government in a format like the other Title III services. The major shift in reporting relates to who is the client. As a result, this Title III-E Client/Service Unit Report shows the number of caregivers who receive services and the number of units by service category from the Title III-E funding of the Older Americans Act, the AoA, and limited state general fund dollars. Additionally, it shows the number of persons served by individual services and total "unduplicated" client count across all services. In other words, if you add the total number of clients (caregivers) from all services, it is higher than the actual number of persons served across all services because some people need and receive more than one service. (Please note: this is preliminary data, and may be subject to change.)
