38 From a geotechnical perspective, ATCs are a mechanism to manage subsurface risk. Regardless of which method an agency uses to implement ATCs, each alternative will have its own unique risk profile and each competitor is afforded an opportunity to select an alternative that has the lowest perceived geotechnical risk.
