Bi-State Development Operations Committee Agenda Item August 15, 2017 From: Mary C. Lamie, Executive Director, St. Louis Regional Freightway Subject: St. Louis Regional Freightway 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List Disposition: Approval Presentation: Mary C. Lamie, Executive Director, St. Louis Regional Freightway Yodit Teklu, Associate Project Manager, St. Louis Regional Freightway Objective: To present to the Operations Committee for discussion and referral to the Bi-State Development (BSD) Board of Commissioners (Board) for approval of the St. Louis Regional Freightway (Freightway) 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List. Board Policy: No Board policy applies for the approval of the Freightway 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List. Funding Source: Funding approval is not required. The projects will be funded through various sources, including federal, state and local funding and public-private partnerships. Background/Analysis: The mission of the St. Louis Regional Freightway is to develop and grow the manufacturing and the logistic industries through partnerships with public and private sector leaders. The Needs Analysis and Freight Development Committee (NAFD), chaired by Terminal Railroad Association of St. Louis (TRRA) President Mike McCarthy, is responsible for preparing the region’s Freight Development Plan (FDP) that includes a list of multimodal transportation projects that will help grow our economy through the region’s manufacturing and logistics industries. The Freight Development Plan will help drive economic growth through freight infrastructure improvements and will help raise awareness and support for multimodal infrastructure funding. Investing in our transportation infrastructure will increase the freight network’s efficiency, reliability, capacity and level of service, leading to increased productivity, competitiveness, and economic growth. NAFD committee members include a broad cross-section of industry leaders representing manufacturing, logistics, industrial real estate, workforce development, economic development organizations, academia, all modes of transportation, both the Illinois and Missouri Departments of Transportation and the East-West Gateway Council of Governments (EWCOG). In 2016, the Freight Multimodal Transportation Project List was unanimously approved by the Freight Council, the EWCOG Board of Directors as well as the Bi-State Development Board of Commissioners. The list was presented to the USDOT Federal Highway Administration Administrator Gregory Nadeau and the Maritime Administration Administrator Paul Jaenichen, Operations Committee St. Louis Regional Freightway 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List August 15, 2017 Page 2 who described our efforts as a model for the country. Additionally, the project list is helping the region gain critical support for infrastructure funding from state lawmakers and the congressional delegations from Illinois and Missouri. The NAFD Committee updated the project list for 2017. Through this public-private partnership, the project list is a tool for elected leaders, the DOTs and regional leaders to better understand the infrastructure needs of manufacturing and logistic industries that represent the region and the nation’s supply chain. Project selection was based on the following criteria: . Economic Impact . Multimodal Impact . Efficiency Impact . Safety and Security in Travel The projects in the attached 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List were developed through a request for projects throughout the St. Louis region from state and local agencies and our committee members. On January 12, 2017, the NAFD committee members met and the projects were vetted with public and private stakeholders from across the region. Merchants Bridge (TRRA) over the Mississippi River was ranked as Freightway’s highest priority project. New projects include improvements to Interstate 70, Hanley Road, and St. Charles Rock Road in Missouri and Interstate 64, Air Mobility Drive expansion, and Kaskaskia Regional Port District projects in Illinois. On March 9, 2017, the NAFD committee reconvened to finalize the list. The Freightway Council approved the project list during the April 7, 2017 Council Meeting. Finally, the list of projects was publicly unveiled during the May 10, 2017 Freight Summit. The list was also posted on the Freightway website at TheFreightway.com. A copy of the Freightway 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List is included as Exhibit A. Committee Action Requested: Discussion and referral to the Board of Commissioners for approval of the St. Louis Regional Freightway 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List. Attachments: Exhibit A: St. Louis Regional Freightway 2017 Multimodal Transportation Project List 2017 FREIGHT DEVELOPMENT PLAN ST LOUIS REGIONAL FREIGHTWAY The St. Louis Regional Freightway plays a critical role in the growth of regional manufacturing and distribution sectors within the bi-state region including seven counties in Missouri and Illinois and the City of St. Louis. With support from the East-West Gateway Council of Governments (EWCOG) Board of Directors and the manufacturing, logistics and industrial real estate industries, all modes of transportation, economic development organizations and both the Illinois and Missouri Departments of Transportation, the St. Louis Regional Freightway is garnering national recognition as a premier freight hub and continues to build public-private partnerships to maximize infrastructure funding opportunities. In 2016, the Freight Multimodal Transportation Project List was unanimously approved by the EWCOG Board of Directors. The list was presented to the USDOT Federal Highway Administration Administrator Gregory Nadeau and the Maritime Administration Administrator Paul Jaenichen, who described our efforts as a model for the country. Additionally, the project list is helping the region gain critical support for infrastructure funding from state lawmakers and the congressional delegations from Illinois and Missouri. The Freight Development and Needs Analysis Committee updated the project list for 2017. The committee is chaired by Mike McCarthy, President of the Terminal Railroad Association of St. Louis (TRRA). The project list update included a regional freight transportation needs analysis to document existing conditions, economic benefits and identify network constraints.

ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service or we) is establishing the final frameworks from which States may select season dates, limits, and other options for the 2021–22 migratory game bird hunting season, and making a minor change to the special procedures for issuance of annual hunting regulations. We annually prescribe outside limits, frameworks, within which States may select hunting seasons. Frameworks specify the outside dates, season lengths, shooting hours, bag and possession limits, and areas where migratory game bird hunting may occur. These frameworks are necessary to allow State selections of seasons and limits and to allow harvest at levels compatible with migratory game bird population status and habitat conditions. Migratory game bird hunting seasons provide opportunities for recreation and sustenance, and aid Federal, State, and Tribal governments in the management of migratory game birds. DATES: This rule takes effect on [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER].

  • 2019 Priority Freight Projects St Louis Regional Freightway
    2019 PRIORITY FREIGHT PROJECTS ST LOUIS REGIONAL FREIGHTWAY The St. Louis region is setting records and gaining national and international attention as a freight leader for our strong global and fast-growing market. Our world-class multimodal transportation system is not only ideally positioned at the nexus of the U.S. freight network but is also located in the center of the nation’s agricultural heartland. Our tremendous logistical advantages are attracting more and more manufacturers and logistics industry companies who compete in domestic and international markets, and they have paved the way for a 15-mile stretch of the Mississippi River flowing through the St. Louis region to gain recognition as the Ag Coast of America. Maintaining those logistical advantages is a key objective of the St. Louis Regional Freightway. With support from the East-West Gateway Council of Governments (EWGCOG) Board of Directors, leaders in manufacturing, logistics, industrial real estate, all modes of transportation, economic development and both the Illinois and Missouri Departments of Transportation (DOT), the Freightway has helped garner national recognition for the St. Louis region as a premier freight hub. We continue to build public-private partnerships to maximize infrastructure funding opportunities for the region’s priority infrastructure projects. Those infrastructure priorities are updated every year by the Freight Development and Needs Analysis Committee, chaired by Mike McCarthy, president of the Terminal Railroad of Association of St. Louis. Project selection continues to be based on the following criteria: Economic Impact Efficiency Impact Multimodal Impact Safety and Security in Travel Last fall, the EWGCOG Board of Directors endorsed the Freightway’s multimodal project list, signifying the region’s widespread support of industry leaders working hand-in-hand with both IDOT and MoDOT to set infrastructure priorities.
