Abstract This document provides guidance and direction to FHWA Division Bridge Engineers in performing NBIP compliance reviews of State and Federal agency bridge safety inspection programs. It contains the 23 metrics assessed for compliance reviews under the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS) at 23 CFR Part 650, Subpart C. This document supersedes the prior Metrics for the Oversight of the National Bridge Inspection Program, dated April 1, 2013. The format of this document remains the same as the previous version, with each metric definition and requirements listed on one page, followed by a commentary section for each to clarify the metric requirements. The electronic version includes links to other important resources, indicated by blue text. Further FHWA guidance available on the National Bridge Inspection Program (NBIP) SharePoint site will assist reviewers in performing the compliance reviews, primarily The NBIP Compliance Review Guidance and the BPM Chapter 2 Draft Final 5-1-2017 from the Structure Discipline’s Bridge Program Manual. The former contains background and information on the development of the review process and explains the review process generally. The latter document further details how to address the compliance issues determined, such as the requirements of Plans of Corrective Actions, Improvement Plans, and other Non-Compliance issues.
