MDOT Annual Fiscal Report 2005
Mississippi Department of Transportation ANNUAL REPORT 2005 Table of contents Introduction >> 3 Letter from Butch Brown >> 5 Board >> 6 Organizational Chart >> 8 Major Projects >> 13 Maintenance >> 24 Right of Way >> 28 Traffic Engineering >> 32 Administrative Services >> 36 Financials >> 42 Ports & Waterways >> 50 Aeronautics >> 54 Public Transit >> 58 Railways >> 62 Environmental >> 64 Civil Rights >> 68 Enforcement >> 70 Educational Programs >> 72 Professional Development >> 78 Rails, ports, air service, public transit – our mission encompasses much more than highways these days. This year’s annual report is dedicated to the people of MDOT – and to those outside it – who continue to see the big picture of how we all work together in moving Mississippi forward. From the RIDES coordinators who are helping to create a new generation of civil engineers to the maintenance crews who resurface roadways in record time. From Pat Fordice and so many others who strive to Keep Mississippi Beautiful to the careful motorists who slow down at the stack. From the folks who watch over the railways to those who oversee the runways, the bus schedulers to the delivery timers, the truck weighers to the evacuation routers – you’re all working to make sure that everything and everybody arrives safely, securely, and on time. MDOT’s mission is “to build and maintain a safe, multi-modal transportation network that is planned, designed, constructed, and maintained in an effective, cost-efficient, and environmentally sound manner.” As a department, MDOT can proudly say we’re accomplishing that mission with flying colors. But we couldn’t do it without the people in this department. -

OCTOBER 1-3, 2017 GREETINGS FROM DELTA STATE PRESIDENT WILLIAM N. LAFORGE Welcome to Delta State University, the heart of the Mississippi Delta, and the home of the blues! Delta State provides a wide array of educational, cultural, and athletic activities. Our university plays a key role in the leadership and development of the Mississippi Delta and of the State of Mississippi through a variety of partnerships with businesses, local governments, and community organizations. As a university of champions, we boast talented faculty who focus on student instruction and mentoring; award-winning degree programs in business, arts and sciences, nursing, and education; unique, cutting-edge programs such as aviation, geospatial studies, and the Delta Music Institute; intercollegiate athletics with numerous national and conference championships in many sports; and a full package of extracurricular activities and a college experience that help prepare our students for careers in an ever-changing, global economy. Delta State University’s annual International Conference on the Blues consists of three days of intense academic and scholarly activity, and includes a variety of musical performances to ensure authenticity and a direct connection to the demographics surrounding the “Home of the Delta Blues.” Delta State University’s vision of becoming the academic center for the blues — where scholars, musicians, industry gurus, historians, demographers, and tourists come to the “Blues Mecca” — is becoming a reality, and we are pleased that you have joined us. I hope you will engage in as many of the program events as possible. This is your conference, and it is our hope that you find it meaningful. -

American Enterprise Institute The Project on Fair Representation Edward Blum Visiting Fellow American Enterprise Institute 1150 Seventeenth St. NW Washington, DC 20036 202.862.5800 An Assessment of Voting Rights Progress in Mississippi Executive Summary By Edward Blum Of all the states of the South and all of the states subject to Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, Mississippi has had the longest journey from out of the darkness of segregation and racial subjugation. Early in the 1960s Mississippi had the lowest rates of black voter registration and participation maintained by the most unabashedly violent and vehement efforts to deny black suffrage. By the beginning of the 21st century, proportionally more blacks than whites were registered to vote in Mississippi, and for two decades Mississippi blacks have registered to vote at higher rates than African-Americans outside the South. Until recently Mississippi whites voted at higher rates than blacks, though the difference between the races has largely been eliminated as of 1998. Mississippi blacks often turn out at rates higher than blacks in the rest of the country. 1 Mississippi has the highest proportion black population of the United States, though the state has fewer African Americans than in New York City. With approximately 900 officials, blacks hold more public office in the Magnolia State than elsewhere, and a black person is more likely to be represented by or to get to vote for a black officeholder in Mississippi than anywhere else in the US. Since 1987, an African-American has represented the majority-black Delta congressional district. Black representation is approaching proportionality in the state House of Representatives, though the black proportion in the state Senate still lags. -
