FYI I just spoke with Chris Andriessen, Cal Trans District 9 Public Relations Officer - Bishop CA who informed me that Cal Trans only maintains Highway 190 through DEVA. All other roads are NPS Death Valley's responsibility.
District Nine has its own Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Caltrans9
DVD, I'm very impressed at how, whenever a question like this comes up, you know exactly how to reach someone who can get you an answer, whereas probably most of the rest of us would be stuck in an infinite loop with an automated phone message trying to get ahold of a live person. Well done!
