Street Smart began as a once-a-year effort and has expanded with both spring and fall campaigns. The program is coordinated by the Transportation Planning Board, and is supported by federal funds made available through state governments, and funding from some area jurisdictions. Attendees also recommended better placement of bus stops throughout the region. On the topic of enforcement, participants called for consistent traffic laws across jurisdictional lines, traffic units dedicated to enforcing pedestrian safety laws, and more community policing.

In order to help the nation’s metropolitan areas (which now account for over 80 percent of the U.S. population) prepare for potential attacks, the federal government instituted the Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) program. Purchasing radiation detectors that will help police and fire personnel detect a “dirty” or nuclear bomb and increasing the ability of area hospitals to treat large numbers of individuals following such an attack are two key areas in which the National Capital Region will allocate the $59.8 million it received in 2008 UASI funding from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

The goal of the seminar was to ensure that all jurisdictions in the National Capital Region are prepared to effectively respond to and recover from a pandemic influenza. The event also sought to identify strategies for the public and private sectors to cope with a catastrophic public health emergency, as well as communicating messages to the public. In anticipation of the unprecedented demand that the inauguration of President Barack Obama would place on the region’s infrastructure and emergency response agencies, COG staff provided wide-ranging support of numerous public safety committees addressing matters related to the event. The COG Executive Director also initiated regular discussions on inauguration planning with the District of Columbia City Administrator to speak about questions and concerns of area Chief Administrative Officers (CAOs). COG staff is partnering with D.C.’s Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency (HSEMA) to complete an after action report on the event.

COG’s decision, one of the few in the country to affect a multi-state region, proposes to return to 2005 levels of regional greenhouse gas emissions by 2012. The mid-range goal is for a reduction of 20 percent below the 2005 levels by 2020, and the long-term goal is for a reduction of 80 percent below the 2005 levels by 2050. The report is the culmination of an intense, year-and-a-half long effort by COG’s Climate Change Steering Committee, which was comprised of officials from the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. COG staff took the extra step to make sure that each member government was briefed on the report’s findings and recommendations by presenting the report at city and county council meetings and special outreach events.

Climate Change Steering Committee. “In the fight against climate change, The region’s elected officials view this we want to remind citizens that small actions like turning off the lights, approach as one that will provide a lowering the thermostat, walking more, and riding the bus can add up to a catalyst for improving the environment big impact and can help them save money at the same time.” and provide for a prosperous and sustainable future. Rep. Gerald Connolly (VA-11th) indicated the immediate need to act on the issue. “I believe the debate over the science of global warming needs to end and addressing the reality of global warming should begin,” he said. The metropolitan Washington region is growing. COG forecasts an addition of 1.6 million new residents and 1.2 million new jobs to the region by 2030. Based on current business-as-usual projections of growth in population, housing, employment, and energy use, total greenhouse gas emissions in the region will increase by 33 percent by 2030 and 43 percent by 2050.

The Action Agenda highlighted the progress made to date such as decreased pollution levels, 10 new miles of restored streams, and 27 new acres of tidal wetlands. It also noted that goals on trash reduction, aquatic health and reforestation have not yet been achieved. In November, the Partnership released the first phase of the comprehensive “Anacostia Watershed Restoration Plan,” being prepared by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Through this plan, which owes a debt of gratitude to the region’s Congressional delegation, the Partnership is working to identify long-term restoration actions. GOVERNOR’S PRESS OFFICE 30 31

While the region’s progress in reducing Air ground-level ozone pollution has drawn praise in recent years, area leaders are also calling attention to the great Quality strides being made in relation to fine particle pollution. This form of pollution is a mixture of microscopic solids and liquid droplets suspended in the air, which can get deep into peoples’ lungs and bloodstreams. Local governments are helping improve air quality through wind purchases and green buildings, improving energy efficiency, and increasing tree canopy in the region. In addition, through the adoption of the Clean Air Interstate Rule (the “Healthy Air Act” in Maryland), states in the region are working to reduce pollution from power plants. The state rules will reduce sulfur dioxide, a major component of fine particles, from power plants by 80% starting in 2010.

The action was greeted with enthusiasm by area officials who serve on the Metropolitan Washington Air Quality Committee, the body charged with preparing air quality plans for the region. Falls Church Council Member David Snyder, who served as MWAQC Chair, called the action “a powerful validation of the hard work of all elements of the region—government, businesses and individuals.” MWAQC’s most recent plan, released earlier in the year, aimed to make even deeper fine particle pollution reductions than those required by the Clean Air Act. For the region to be in compliance of federal standards, however, EPA must make the reclassification official.

COG applauded the passage of legislation securing a dedicated funding source for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA). Obtaining dedicated funding for WMATA has been a top priority of COG for many years. COG first called attention to Metro’s funding shortfalls in 2005 when it worked with the Greater Washington Board of Trade and Federal City Council to sponsor a blue ribbon panel of transportation funding experts to examine the issue.

Tom Davis, (R-VA) introduced the funding legislation in the House of Representatives and together with Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD), worked tirelessly to keep the issue at the forefront of the Congressional agenda. The funding measure was signed by former President George W. Bush in October and authorizes $1.5 billion over 10 years in matching funding for capital improvements needed by WMATA. This action is crucial during a time when transit systems across the country are experiencing a surge in demand and Metrorail expects to have a record-breaking year in terms of ridership. The District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia have dedicated funds to qualify for a federal match, and in October, the U.S. Senate passed a measure which provided the last piece of a puzzle that has been many years in the making. At its Annual Membership and Awards Luncheon in December, COG presented the 2008 Elizabeth and David Scull Metropolitan Public Service Award to Davis and Cardin for their leadership in helping the region secure a dedicated funding source for WMATA. This award is presented to outstanding elected officials who have shown great determination and perseverance in improving the metropolitan Washington region.

In 2008, a number of Access important developments took place for improving transportation access in the region. In June, the TPB approved twelve projects, including wheelchair accessible taxicabs, which will improve the access and mobility of persons with disabilities and low-income commuters in the region. As the designated recipient of federal funding under the Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC) and New Freedom programs of the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the TPB received approximately $1 million per program per year for four years to improve transportation access in the metropolitan Washington region.

Funding was also provided to support coordinated driver training and marketing. This funding will help raise the number of accessible taxicabs in the District from zero to 21. “As result of these endorsed projects, D.C. will no longer be one of the few major U.S. cities without accessible taxi service,” said Alexandria City Councilmember Tim Lovain, who chaired the TPB Human Service Transportation Coordination Task Force, which developed priorities for the project selection process. In November, an independent review was released on MetroAccess, the door to door service provided by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) for transit users unable to take the bus or Metrorail system due to a disability. The review, which was prepared for the TPB, found that while progress has been made in improving the service, a number of challenges remain.

In summer 2008, during the well-publicized rise in gas prices, it experienced an unprecedented number of inquiries for its ridematching service in 2008. In June alone, the program received a 184 percent increase in applications compared to the same time last year. In an effort to make the decision to adopt ridesharing easier, Commuter Connections unveiled its free, real-time ridematching system to the public in September. The new, state-of-the-art system provides area commuters with a list of individuals who live and work near them, have similar work schedules, and are interested in carpooling or vanpooling to and from work. The system also provides other important information such as the closest park and ride lots, transit stations and telework centers to each resident’s home. A higher level of interactivity is one of the system’s core concepts and the new system puts complete control in the hands of commuters.

On September 22, Commuter Connections helped organize the first region-wide Car Free Day in the Washington metropolitan area, an annual international event which seeks to raise awareness of auto-alternative means of transportation.

The first new project focuses on improving access to Fort Belvoir from both I-95 and the Fairfax County Parkway, in anticipation of increased demand at the facility due to the Base Realignment and Closures (BRAC) act. This project uses federal funding and is slated to be complete by 2013. The second new project is the creation and operation of a streetcar system running approximately 4.7 miles between Pentagon City in Arlington County and Skyline in Fairfax County. For most of the route, streetcars will travel in mixed traffic. This project utilizes state and local funding and is scheduled to be complete by 2016. The third new project is the implementation of the Fairfax Connector Service Transit Development Plan. This plan includes increasing bus service on priority routes, purchasing 35 new Fairfax Connector buses, expanding the West Ox Bus Operations Facility to accommodate new buses and increased service, and improving bus stop access and safety. This project uses local funding and has a completion target of 2011.

As the economic crisis worsens, Needs donations to nonprofits are diminishing at precisely the time when their services are needed the most. This led the COG Board of Directors, at its October meeting, to call for continued charitable giving from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The two corporations donated a combined $47 million to area nonprofits and community groups in 2007. In December, COG participated in “Nonprofit 911,” an event bringing together over 500 nonprofit, business, and government leaders to develop a plan of action that redefines how the nonprofit sector operates in a new fiscal reality.
