AASHTOs Product Evaluation Listing (APEL) - The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), maintains a database of propriety products utilized in the transportation infrastructure. The fifty (50) states, DC and PR contribute to the database from their experience with the performance of proprietary products.

AASHTOs National Transportation Product Evaluation Program (NTPEP) - The National Transportation Product Evaluation Program (NTPEP) was established in early 1994 as an engineering technical service program to pool the professional and physical resources of AASHTO's member departments to test transportation materials of their common interest.

Eastern States Consortium (ESC) - The New England states and New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia have formed the Eastern States Consortium (ESC) to establish minimum requirements for the quality control procedures that the manufacturers of High Density Polyethylene Pipe must subscribe to in order to supply pipe to participating states. It is the intent for the States to benefit through cooperative inspection and qualification processes and for the manufacturers to benefit through having one uniform set of quality control requirements to meet for all of the participating states.
