This Listing of DCR Properties Is Meant to Supplement the Landscape Designations Map with Additional Information This listing of DCR properties is meant to supplement the Landscape Designations map with additional information. It shows how many acres from each property are assigned to each landscape designation, but cannot detail which parts of each property are assigned to each designation – please see the maps for that information. The properties below are listed as named in DCR's GIS databases; GIS names may not match all names posted at facilities or known locally. The column labeled "ELU" identifies in which Ecological Land Unit the property belongs. Properties in the same ELU share similar landscape characteristics and are not necessarily linked geographically.

  • Chapter 4: Regionwide Needs Assessment
    REGIONWIDE 4 NEEDS ASSESSMENT INTRODUCTION A critical early step in developing the LRTP is to gather, organize, and analyze available sources of data about the transportation system. This allows the MPO to understand the many needs that exist for all transportation modes. After analyzing data included in the Web-based Needs Assessment described in Chapter 1, it is clear that the region has extensive maintenance and modernization requirements, including the need to address safety and mobility for all modes. MPO staff estimates that these needs likely would exceed the region’s anticipated financial resources between now and 2040. Therefore, the MPO must prioritize the region’s needs in order to guide investment decisions. This chapter provides an overview of the MPO region’s transportation needs for the next twenty-five years. The information in this chapter has been organized according to the LRTP’s goals—which are used to evaluate projects in the Universe of Projects List both for scenario planning, and then project selection for the recommended LRTP. The LRTP’s goals are related to: • Safety • System Preservation • Capacity Management and Mobility • Clean Air and Clean Communities • Transportation Equity • Economic Vitality Information in each goal-based section of this chapter falls into these general categories: • The goals and related objectives • Background information for each goal • The policy context that surrounds each goal, which includes: 1. Initiatives and directives that shape the goal and related needs. Detailed information about each of the policies is included in Appendix A. 2. Relevant studies, reports, and documents that help the MPO understand the region’s transportation needs.
