(a) Designation of department delegate. For each class of transportation project under Subchapter D of this chapter (relating to Requirements for Classes of Projects), the department's executive director will designate the department district division, or other operational unit of the department that has the authority to review and approve on the department's behalf work conducted under this chapter, including an environmental review document. The executive director may designate exceptions to any delegation made under this section for specific projects or types of projects.     
      (b) Dual roles permitted. The department's executive director may designate a district or division as both the project sponsor and the department delegate for a project. If a district or division has both of those roles and this chapter requires the project sponsor to submit a document to the department delegate, the district or division will place documentation in the project file showing completion of the task by the date specified.
