According to my list: Connecticut is in the process of reverting to IP, DOT decision (58.7% metric as of 1999). Montana does appear to be still SI the "Still SI as of 5/30/01 was in the wrong column and I missed it. Idaho is in process of reverting to IP, per DOT. New Mexico decided to revert on July 2000, State dot decision). They were 45.0% metric in 1999. Utah is the most troubling to me being 100% converted and now going back to IP.

I'm not sure who produced it. States Still SI as of 5/30/01: Alaska, California, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Oregon. States still dual as of 5/30/01: Delaware, Louisiana, Vermont, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Washington Seems to me these dual States are headed back to English even though they are not officially SI. The rest either never converted, have reverted or are in the reversion process. The sad part is I counted 22 States that revered by orders of the State DOT or their commissioner. Only three were due to "State Legislature" although I'm sure with the others there was significant political pressure which is not apparent in this listing. Four States are 100% metric based on 1999 % construction (maybe its higher for other SI states by now.) New Jersey (dual), Oregon (SI), New York (SI), Utah (SI but recently announced reversion). Sorry the news is so grim. Howard Ressel, Metric Manager New York State Department of Transportation, Region 4
