PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS to INTERSTATE 59/INTERSTATE 20 Lauderdale County, Mississippi MDOT Project Number DB/IM-0059-03(099)/108158-301000
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS TO INTERSTATE 59/INTERSTATE 20 Lauderdale County, Mississippi MDOT Project Number DB/IM-0059-03(099)/108158-301000 DESIGN-BUILD PROJECT NOTICE OF INTENT The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) intends to solicit proposals from parties interested in providing design and construction services necessary to upgrade lighting within the approximate Meridian city limits, install Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) infrastructure, and to complete the widening, rehabilitation, or replacement of multiple existing bridges on Interstate 59/Interstate 20 in Lauderdale County in Mississippi. Modifications to the bridge or the roadway below may be required in order to provide adequate vertical clearance at certain locations. Other work included may involve bridge demolition, roadway design, hydro-demolition, girder replacement, joint replacement, installation of retaining wall systems, minor repairs, and associated roadway work. The Mississippi Transportation Commission (Commission) will use a two-step process to select a Design- Build team with which to execute a contract for this Project. The Request for Qualifications (RFQ) represents the first step in the process. The purpose of the RFQ is to solicit Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from Responders interested in providing the requested services necessary to complete the Project. After evaluation and scoring of responsive SOQs, the Commission intends to short-list the most qualified Responders. The Short-listed Responders will be provided a Request for Proposals (RFP) and will be asked to submit a Volume 1 – Technical Proposal and a Volume 2 – Contract Price Proposal. A Design-Build team will then be selected for the Project utilizing the best-value selection method. This NOTICE OF INTENT is issued to allow potential Responders an opportunity to form Design-Build teams in anticipation of the issuance of the RFQ. -

CHYTKA, DISTRICT ) COMMANDER, MOBILE DISTRICT; ) NO. ALABAMA DEPARTMENT OF ) TRANSPORTATION; and JOHN R. ) COOPER, DIRECTOR, ALDOT, ) ) Defendants. ) ) COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF Plaintiff Black Warrior Riverkeeper, Inc., by and through its undersigned counsel, files this Complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief, stating as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. This action challenges violations of Section 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act ("Clean Water Act" or "CWA"), as well as the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 ("NEPA"), in connection with Defendant United States Army Corps of Engineers' ("the Corps') September 30, 2013 decision to issue a permit for the discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States ("Section 404 permit") for the construction of a 1.86- mile segment of the Northern Beltline near Palmerdale, Alabama. When completed, the proposed 52-mile, six-lane Northern Beltline would be a new controlled-access highway between Interstate 459 in Bessemer, Alabama and Interstate 59 in Trussville, Alabama. 2. Section 404 of the Clean Water Act requires the Corps to issue permits only for those projects that represent the least damaging practicable alternative that will satisfy the project's purpose and need. In determining the least damaging practicable alternative, the Corps must evaluate a number of environmental and economic factors pursuant to CWA regulations and must look at the entire project. 3. The Section 404 permit issued for the Northern Beltline is an improper and illegal segmentation that prevents an objective look at the entire project's impacts and alternatives. -

Addressing the Social Vulnerability of Mississippi Gulf Coast Vietnamese Community Through the Development of Community Health Advisors
sustainability Article Addressing the Social Vulnerability of Mississippi Gulf Coast Vietnamese Community through the Development of Community Health Advisors Susan Mayfield-Johnson 1,*, Danielle Fastring 1 , Daniel Le 2 and Jane Nguyen 3 1 School of Health Professions, The University of Southern Mississippi, Hattiesburg, MS 39406, USA; [email protected] 2 BPSOS-Biloxi-Bayou La Batre, Biloxi, MS 39530, USA; [email protected] 3 BPSOS, Community Health Worker, Biloxi, MS 39530, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-601-266-6262 Received: 26 March 2020; Accepted: 3 May 2020; Published: 10 May 2020 Abstract: Background: Resiliency is the ability to prepare for, recover from, and adapt to stressors from adverse events. Social vulnerabilities (limited access to resources, political power, and representation; lack of social capital; aspects of the built environment; health inequities; and being in certain demographic categories) can impact resiliency. The Vietnamese population living along the Mississippi Gulf Coast is a community that has unique social vulnerabilities that impact their ability to be resilient to adverse events. Objectives: The purpose of this project was to address social vulnerability by implementing and evaluating a volunteer Community Health Advisor (CHA) project to enhance community resiliency in this community. Methods: A program implemented over eight three-hour sessions was adapted from the Community Health Advisor Network curriculum that focused on healthy eating, preventing chronic conditions (hyperlipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, cancer, and poor mental health). Topics also included leadership and capacity development skills. Results: Participants (n = 22) ranged from 35 to 84 years of age. Most were female (63.6%), married (45.5%), unemployed (63.6%), had annual incomes of <$10,000, and had high school diplomas (68.2%). -

Demolition of Historic Buildings on the Mississippi Gulf Coast
DEMOLITION OF HISTORIC BUILDINGS ON THE MISSISSIPPI GULF COAST IN THE WAKE OF HURRICANE KATRINA by GWEN K. JONES (Under the Direction of Wayde Brown) ABSTRACT This thesis examines the circumstances under which historic architectural resources were demolished in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. A brief history of three hurricane-related natural disasters in the United States addresses the political, economic, and social impacts post-disaster. Three case studies provide scenarios in which preservationists successfully, and unsuccessfully, collaborated in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina to protect historic architectural resources on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. An analysis of factors that led to demolitions, the roles played by different levels of government and preservationists, and strategies that worked and did not work to prevent demolitions are also presented.
