  • Transit Project Delivery CBT Transcript
    NEPA Introduction Course: Transit Project Delivery Welcome to the National Environmental Policy Act also known as NEPA Introduction Course on Transit Project Delivery provided by the Florida Department of Transportation’s or FDOT’s Office of Environmental Management, as covered in Part 1, Chapter 14 of the Project Development and Environment (or PD&E) Manual. This course provides an overview of the transit project delivery process, agency roles in the environmental review process, an overview of FDOT’s five-step process, which includes planning and community support, concept development and alternatives screening, PD&E study phases, and the Federal Transit Administration’s, or FTA’s, funding programs. Lesson 1 provides an overview of transit projects and NEPA, including definitions used for transit projects, an introduction to the FTA, and a comparison of how NEPA is conducted for FTA versus the Federal Highway Administration, or FHWA. If a federal action is required or federal funding is being used, the project must comply with NEPA and other applicable environmental laws and regulations, including those related to historic preservation and protection of public lands. FTA is typically the lead agency for transit projects, when FTA funding is being used to construct the project or purchase vehicles. Other agencies may be involved in the NEPA process, such as Federal Highway Administration, or FHWA, if the project involves an interstate facility or bridge, or the Federal Railroad Administration or FRA, if the project involves a freight or passenger railroad corridor, such as Amtrak. FTA has its own procedures for NEPA compliance, including requiring the NEPA or project development phase to be completed within two years for certain funding programs.

  • Women's Center of Jacksonville
    Annual2015-2016 Report WOMEN’S CENTER OF JACKSONVILLE IMPROVING THE LIVES OF WOMEN Dear Supporters, Donors and Friends, It was with great excitement that I officially began my new role with the Improving the Lives of Women Women’s Center of Jacksonville on April 4th, 2016. Working here has solidified my belief that this is exactly where I want to be. With every Board of Directors community meeting I attend, people speak highly about the wonderful work the Women’s Center has done over the past 20 plus years. My goal President moving forward is to ensure the stellar reputation of the Women’s Center Alma Ballard remains (and to continue the legacy Shirley Webb has entrusted to us all). I extend my thanks to Alma Ballard and the Board of Directors for their Immediate Past President leadership during the transition, and to Laurie Price who served as interim Alicia Grant director for three months following Shirley’s retirement at the end of 2015. 1st Vice President I have already had the privilege of meeting many key supporters during Teresa Miles Lisé Everly the events and activities in which the Women’s Center is involved. April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and we presented several events 2nd Vice President throughout the month to raise awareness of the critical issue of sexual Margo Castro violence. In May we listened to Melissa Ross, host and producer of WJCT’s Treasurer First Coast Connect, speak about “the road to gender equality,” during Laura VanZee the 2016 Women, Words & Wisdom Speaker Event.
