At its January 2010 meeting, the Board voted unanimously to adopt the report. “At a time of immense economic pressure in both the private and public sectors, strengthening the ability to meet current and future employment needs must be a primary focus for the region’s policy makers and leaders,” said City of Alexandria Mayor Bill Euille, Chair of the task force. “The National Capital Region must be well- T

positioned to emerge from the current economic downturn more R O P

The act contains a number of important Chesapeake Bay. To hear that and/or other episodes, visit www.mwcog.org/news provisions, including strengthening the federal-state Chesapeake Bay Program, establishing aggressive new deadlines for meeting Bay water quality standards as well as consequences for failing to meet “The health of the Chesapeake Bay is vital to our region,” said those deadlines, and requiring regular progress reports to Congress. Cardin. “Leaders at every level need to be at the table on this issue.” The Bay would likely be in much worse shape were it not for the federal, state, and local efforts coordinated in the EPA’s Chesapeake Bay Program. However, a number of the program’s water quality goals have not yet been met, and the restoration process must be accelerated. Population growth, the loss of green space to paved surfaces, and the impacts of climate change have made it more difficult to achieve the program’s objectives, Cardin said. T

Gaithersburg City Council Member Catherine Drzyzgula told R O P

Board members that she looked forward to working with Cardin on E R

restoration of the Bay, and noted that flexibility in implementation L A U

will be important. “Some aspects of regulation are best left at the N N

state and local level,” Drzyzgula said. “Regulations must also strike A 9 0

a balance among often competing policy goals, such as reducing 0 2

greenhouse gas emissions and promoting smart growth.” G O C 30 31 Y R O

weather conditions. R O P

Even though the region’s air quality has improved, the EPA is E R D L N

E again considering adopting stricter health standards for ozone A I H U P because many studies now link much smaller amounts of ozone N O N T A O

Commuters traveling mornings on I-395 from the District across the 14th St. Bridge into Northern Virginia; the Capital Beltway from Bethesda to Tysons Corner; and the Beltway from the Baltimore-Washington Parkway to I-270; and back in the afternoon, may qualify for a $1 each way incentive for carpooling during the ‘Pool Rewards pilot program. T The program is similar to Atlanta’s highly successful Cash for R O P

Commuters effort. At the end of its first five years, the Atlanta E R L

program has coaxed more than 29,000 drivers out of their cars and A U

saved 32.8 million vehicle miles traveled, with 64 percent of its N N A

AREA HEALTH OFFICIALS working together at COG released two major reports in 2009 on childhood obesity and health disparities in the region. An April 2009 survey on childhood obesity showed that while area school systems meet or exceed national nutrition standards, they fall short of the recommended time allotment for T

elementary school physical education. The survey was sent by a R O P

COG workgroup of area health officials to local school systems, E R

planning agencies and health departments to identify gaps in L A U

programs and policies to prevent and reduce obesity. The committee N N

held a forum later in the year for area elected officials, school board A 9 0

members, and community leaders to address obesity prevention 0 2

efforts and develop outreach plans for the coming years. G O C 54 55 Y R O

The report showed major disparities in categories such as life expectancy and infant mortality. According to the study, race and ethnicity, education and income, family history and early life experience, even the neighborhoods and homes in which people live are important factors in determining health. These factors are collectively referred to as the “social determinants” of health. “While health care is an essential component T

of any strategy to protect health, of equal R O P

importance are the other factors that can E R

prevent health problems and improve basic L A U

health and well being,” said Tamara Copeland, N N President of the Washington Grantmakers. A 9 0 0 2 G O C 56 57 Y R O

Throughout the year, the H1N1 virus was a primary focus for public health and emergency preparedness officials. COG provided a subject matter expert to assist in the preparedness for and response to H1N1. COG also supported communication and coordination across all health sectors and worked with public T R E
