County road projects receiving no bids after at least two advertisements may be performed by county employees or day labor using county equipment, bypassing the competitive bidding requirement

In counties with population under 52,000 (all except Clark, Washoe, Lyon, Elko, and Carson City), the threshold for holding a hearing to use county workers instead of contractors increases from $250,000 to $547,570

The new $547,570 threshold will be adjusted annually using the National Highway Construction Cost Index, with 2011 as the base year

Projects estimated at $100,000 or more still require the board of county highway commissioners to prepare definite plans, work estimates, and specifications
