Guiding Ideas in Transportation Planning

WEBINAR INVITE:
The National Association of Environmental Professionals (NAEP) invites you to attend an educational webinar on “Guiding Ideas in Transportation Planning.” This webinar addresses the best practices, leading edge initiatives and success stories in transportation planning under MAP-21.
We are in a dynamic period in this nation’s transportation evolution where aging infrastructure needs urgently improved or replaced to provide efficient, reliable, multi-modal alternatives for our transportation needs and choices. The environmental compliance process has often been targeted as the key cause of delay and schedule extensions in the delivery of large infrastructure projects.
Please join us as FHWA, state and regional DOT representatives speak on the exciting ideas and initiatives being accomplished under Every Day Counts, including lessons learned and real examples from Improving Quality of Environmental Documents (IQED), Use of Programmatic Agreements (UPA), and most importantly Expedited Project Delivery (EPD). Our panel of experienced speakers is as follows:
- FHWA Headquarters representatives (soon to be announced) speaking on the top national IQED and UPA success stories.
- Tim Hill, Administrator, Office of Environmental Services, Ohio DOT, speaking on IQED and a recent reader-friendly EIS that received AASHTO and TRB recognition.
- Doug Failing, Executive Director of Highways, Los Angeles County Metro, speaking on the innovative delivery of four multi-billion dollar Measure R transportation projects currently in the Phase I/NEPA process.
- Moderator: Ron Deverman, Associate Vice-President, Principal Environmental Planning Manager for HNTB – 30-year NEPA practitioner.
