Status Two of the three major study components identified below are complete. Existing conditions have been documented; an asset inventory is complete. Future conditions have been forecasted for each mode, without the effects of Project-related impacts. Evaluating Project-related impacts to the transportation system will be completed during the next study season. Study The study is comprised of three major components. The first component is an Components analysis of existing conditions for the transportation system, including road, aviation, rail, port, and river travel. The second component is the forecasting of future transportation system conditions without the construction of the Project. The third component is an evaluation of Project-related activities on the future transportation system. 2013 Variances The ports of Seward and Whittier were added to the study area, as were the associated rail lines. This is a variance from RSP Section 15.7.3. Bridge data integration was limited to bridges whose current structural or functional condition is determined to have a potential

The goal of the score is to encourage cost- effective investment in energy efficiency improvements for these types of buildings. The system, known as the Building Energy Asset Score, will allow building owners and managers to compare their building infrastructure against peers and track energy efficiency impacts of building upgrades over time. The system will also help other building stakeholders (e.g., building investors, tenants, financiers, and appraisers) understand the relative efficiency of different buildings in a way that is independent from operations and occupancy. Prior to developing the Asset Score, DOE performed a market study1 to ensure that the effort would help address market needs and fill identified gaps. In 2012, DOE began initial pilot testing of the Asset Score. In 2013, DOE continued to assess the Asset Score through additional pilot testing and a variety of technical evaluations and performance analyses.

  • E. Transportation and Public Transit West Anchorage District Plan
    E. Transportation and Public Transit West Anchorage District Plan TRANSPORTATION The West Anchorage transportation system is comprised of surface road, railroad, aviation, public transit, and nonmotorized (pedestrian, bicycle, and trail) facilities. Other components of Anchorage’s transportation system include freight distribution, regional connections, and congestion management (MOA, 2005). Inter-Bowl travel is dominated by personal vehicles on the surface road network, but this chapter will discuss the current state of all elements of West Anchorage’s transportation system and its associated facilities. Relationship to Other Transportation Plans Anchorage Metropolitan Area Transportation Solutions (AMATS) is the federally designated metropolitan planning organization responsible for transportation planning in the entire Municipality. The Anchorage Bowl 2025 Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) with 2027 Revisions (MOA, 2005) was developed through the AMATS planning process and is used to identify current and future system deficiencies that need improvement to meet MOA future traffic needs. It is subject to annual review and possible revision. The LRTP meets the federal long-range transportation planning requirements the MOA needs to apply for federal transportation funding. The Official Streets and Highways Plan (OSHP) identifies (by ordinance) the locations, classifications, and minimum right-of-way requirements of the street and highway system needed to meet LRTP goals over a 25 year planning period. LRTP recommended system improvements are funded through the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (Federal), Alaska Transportation Fund (Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities [ADOT&PF]), and Capital Improvements Program (MOA). This chapter will describe each mode of transportation as it relates to West Anchorage and how that would have an impact on land use planning.
