Climate Change Transportation Planning <br /> Continue MPO participation at the iocal, state and federal levels in the - <br /> development and acquisition of strategies, data and tools to inventory and <br /> assess greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. ,These will become the <br /> foundation of developing a regional plan to reduce transportation-related <br /> GHG within the MPO. Evaluate adaptation strategies that are relevant <br /> to transportation infrastructure in the MPO area. <br /> Tasks Year <br /> ¦ -Coordinate with MPOs, DEQ, ODOT and others to identify robust, <br /> ' peer-reviewed process, tools and data sets to measure and estimate <br /> greenhouse gas emissions from transportation sources. <br /> ¦ Acquire local data that will enable tracking of trends to assess regional <br /> progress concerning GHG reduction. <br /> ¦ Compile a set of strategies for impacting GHG emissions. Review and <br /> characterize the effectiveness, costs and limitations of various strategies <br /> that for presentation to and review by the MPC. <br /> ¦ Conduct an analysis of GHG emissions from transportation sources in <br /> the MPO area. <br /> Products Year I <br /> ?

Work with <br /> UO Climate Leadership Initiative to describe these scenarios. <br /> ¦ Develop a regional climate change plan for the MPO area for <br /> presentation to and review by the MPC. State and federal regulations <br /> and initiatives concerning climate change will be responded to and <br /> evaluated within the context of this region. <br /> ¦ Continue coordination with MPOs, DEQ, ODOT and others to identify <br /> and implement approved tools and processes for analysis of GHG <br /> emissions from transportation sources at the regional level. <br /> ¦ Exercise the acquired models and estimate current and future GHG <br /> emissions. based on existing plans. <br /> ¦ Develop alternative scenarios and Investigate resulting impacts on <br /> transportation-sector GHG emissions in the MPO area. <br /> Products Year 2 <br /> ?
