SLOC’s Transportation function is working with Salt Lake City and Park City on their center-of-the- city masterplans. The Transportation Working Group is reviewing individual transportation plans for Olympic venue sites. The group is also meeting with the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) on a highway traffic management plan and proposed Park-and-Ride lots at all Olympic venues. The Transportation Working Group will continue planning the necessary infrastructure and transportation systems to meet the demands of the 2002 Olympic Winter Games. A comprehensive Transportation Plan will be completed in June 1999. Federal matching funds have been made available as part of 1999 U.S. Department of Transportation appropriations. These funds will be essential to the Olympic transportation system. Four projects directly funded by the U.S. Secretary of Transportation include the new access road to Soldier Hollow, State Route 248, the I-80 interchanges at Silver Creek and Kimball Junctions, and the I-15 reconstruction project. The U.S. Secretary of Transportation noted that the federal funding for I-15 will allow an additional Olympic project, the interchange at US 89 and I-84, to move forward in fiscal year 1999. These discretionary grants follow the U.S. Congress’ 1999 Omnibus Appropriations Bill. This bill includes $15 million for the Trappers Loop connector road at the Snowbasin Ski Area and $1 million in funding for Olympic transportation planning. SLOC is coordinating with UDOT regarding transportation plans for freeway ramp reconfiguration near the ‘E’ Center, and a new pedestrian walkway in the Olympic Village.

Shortly after distributing the report, ISB held its initial meeting with the rights-holding broadcasters. At this meeting, ISB presented its initial production plan to the broadcasters, while SLOC officials discussed subjects ranging from accreditation to transportation. From February 8-24, 1999, ISB conducted camera lighting tests at each of the outdoor venues and documented the visits on videotape. The tests were designed to identify a variety of possible lighting problems, and the test dates and times were chosen to closely match the actual Games-time conditions in 2002. In early April 1999, ISB personnel turned their attention to the indoor venues, visiting the various sites to analyze broadcast lighting situations. These indoor and outdoor lighting surveys were precursors to a meeting held with Musco, a lighting design consultant for the Games, where the specific lighting issues were discussed in detail. ISB also contributed resources to determine the best venues for the Figure Skating, Short Track Speed Skating and Ice Hockey. ISB personnel videotaped various spectator and camera sight lines at the Skating Arena at Salt Lake City and the ‘E’ Center to identify specific problem areas in each venue. The edited videotape will be presented to the International Skating Union in hopes of determining the most suitable venue for each sport. ISB personnel and an alpine production consultant also conducted Olympic venue surveys during the U.S. Skiing National Championships. ISB’s nordic events producer met with SLOC during the World Nordic Ski Championships to define course issues, such as intermediate timing points. In mid-April 1999, ISB and SLOC conducted the first Joint Review Board Meeting. Designed as an open forum for both parties to discuss current issues, the Joint Review Board will meet quarterly until 2000, when meetings will be held monthly.

Mr. Thurgood Marshall, Jr., Assistant to the President and Cabinet Secretary, and Mr. Mickey Ibarra, Assistant to the President and Director of Intergovernmental Affairs, will serve as vice chairs. The task force is an interagency effort to coordinate the extensive federal activities involved in the planning and operation of the 2002 Games. In October 1998, the U.S. Congress amended and recodified the Amateur Sports Act of 1978. The amendment includes a provision granting to the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) exclusive jurisdiction in the United States of America over the use of the symbols and terminology of the Paralympic and Pan-American Games. The new act, the Olympic and Amateur Sports Act of 1998, is codified as Title 36 U.S. Code Section 220506. Federal matching funds are being made available as part of the 1999 U.S. Department of Transportation appropriations for projects that will be essential to the Olympic transportation system. Four projects directly funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation include the new access road to Soldier Hollow, State Route 248, the I-80 interchanges at Silver Creek and Kimball Junctions, and the I-15 reconstruction project. In his announcement, U.S. Secretary of Transportation Rodney Slater noted that the federal funding for I- 15 will allow an additional Olympic project, the interchange at US 89 and I-84, to move forward in fiscal year 1999. These discretionary grants are in addition to $15 million for the Trappers Loop connector road at the Snowbasin Ski Area and $1 million in funding for Olympic and Paralympic transportation planning provided by the U.S. Congress.
