LB323 would amend Nebraska §39-1348 to allow the Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) to publish notices of upcoming 
contract opportunities with an estimated cost of more than $250,000 on an NDOT officially designated webpage.  This 	could be done in 
lieu of advertising for these sealed bids in the newspaper . Also, this bill would modify Nebraska §39-1355 for
 NDOT’s authority to 
construct a building, by increasing the dollar threshold to not exceed the adjusted limit for capital construction projects specified in 
Nebraska §81-1114. 
 
 
The NDOT has indicated no fiscal impact. 
 
 
There is no basis to disagree with this estimation.

 Explanation of Estimate: 
 
LB323 would add an official webpage designated by the Department of Transportation 	(NDOT) as a means for 
publication of notice to advertise for sealed bids. The bill also provides a revision to Neb. Rev. Stat. § 39-1355 
allowing NDOT to construct any building which does not have 	an estimated cost exceeding the adjusted limit 
for capital construction projects specified in section 81-	1114. 
 
No fiscal impact is anticipated to the Department of Transportation.
