Notice to Contractor :

(Contact Information Change)

After a long and productive career, G. Joseph Hudak retired from MnDOT on January 3, 2012. Joe developed and supervised MnDOT’s Cultural Resources Unit (CRU), responsible for processing and clearing all federal aid highway projects through the Section 106 (Historical and Archeological) process. The Office of Environmental Stewardship will not be immediately filling Joe’s Cultural Resources Supervisor position. We will be rotating four people from the Unit into the Acting Supervisor role over the next year or so, before Joe’s position is permanently filled. Beginning now, Teresa Martin will be heading up the staff for the first four-month rotation. Teresa and Laura Kling will be handling all incoming Early Notification Memos (ENM) and distributing the projects for staff review. The ENM will be updated to no longer list Joe as the addressee. We will let you know when this has been accomplished so you can download the new form.

Starting now, please send your ENMs to this NEW e-mail address:

culturalresources.dot@state.mn.us

This will become the standard address for CRU regardless of who is the Acting Supervisor. Do not email or copy Joseph Hudak directly. Joe Hudak Jr. (Office of Materials and Road Research) will greatly appreciate not being inundated by Cultural Resource email.

You can still reach the Cultural Resource Unit by phone at Joe’s old number: 651-366-3612.
