Notify PennDOT that Permitted Work is Ready to Start

The Notify PennDOT menu is available for issued permits, and allows a Permittee to notify PennDOT that the permitted work is ready to start.

To notify PennDOT that permitted work is ready to start:

1.      Navigate to any screen for the applicable permit.

2.      Click the [Notify PennDOT] button in the menu near the top of the screen.

3.      Click the [Ready to Start] button in the list of options.

Note: the Ready to Start option can be clicked only once per permit. If it was clicked previously, it will no longer appear in the list of options.

Notifying PennDOT when permitted work is about to start:

·        Generates an email to any assigned Inspectors, the County Reviewers, the District Responders, and the Applicant Team, if the permit requires continuous inspection.

·        Changes the permit status to Awaiting Inspection if continuous inspection is required, but no Inspectors have been assigned.

·        Does not change the permit status from Issued if continuous inspection is not required, and no Inspector have been assigned.

·        Does not change the permit status from Under Inspection if there is already one or more Inspectors assigned.
