R918-4-2. Application for the Adopt-A-Highway Program

  (1) A group or person who wishes to participate in a program to pick up litter along UDOT right-of-way may apply with the UDOT Region in which the right-of-way is located. The application will contain, at a minimum, the name of the organization or person, the right-of-way requested, along with alternatives if desired, the name and address of a contact person, and the name of the sponsoring organization requested to be placed on the Recognition Sign. UDOT may provide an application form or agreement to formalize the terms and conditions of this rule.

  (2) If the name of an organization is to appear on the sign, the applicant must submit, upon request, documentation from the state showing the form, status, and official name of the entity. Only the official name of the organization will be printed on the sign.

  (3) UDOT also coordinates a program similar to Adopt-A-Highway, known as Sponsor-A-Highway, wherein a private contractor performs the actual litter pickup on behalf of local businesses or other entities ("sponsors") in return for a sponsorship fee. The sponsoring entity is recognized with a sign. A business, government entity, group, or person who wishes to participate in the Sponsor-A-Highway program may apply to the contractor. The contractor must submit the name of the entity, sponsorship segment, and proposed Sponsor-A-Highway sign rendering to UDOT for approval.
