TRB Special Report 268 - Surface Transportation Environmental Research: A Long-Term Strategy defines a broad and ambitious research program to address and inform major public policy debates about the effects of surface transportation facilities and operations on the human and natural environments. The committee that conducted the study identified major gaps in knowledge that could be filled through a cooperative program of research involving federal agencies, states, and environmental organizations. The committee recommended creation of a new cooperative research program to carry out its recommended research agenda. Special Report 268 Summary

This report discusses significant legislative provisions regarding environmental issues in House- and Senate-passed bills that would reauthorize federal highway, highway safety, and transit programs for FY2004-FY2009. The Senate bill (S. 1072), the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act of 2003 (SAFETEA), passed on February 12, 2004. The House passed its bill (H.R. 3550), the Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (TEA-LU), on April 2, 2004. The bills have now moved to conference. During the reauthorization process, certain environmental issues have garnered significant attention from both Members of Congress and interested stakeholders (e.g., state transportation agencies, transportation construction organizations, and environmental groups). This attention is due to both the impact that surface transportation projects can have on the environment and the impact that compliance with environmental requirements can have on project delivery. Compliance issues related to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. Ã Ã,¤ 7401 et seq.) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA, 42 U.S.C. Ã Ã,¤ 4321 et seq.), in particular, have generated strong debate during the reauthorization process. For many surface transportation projects, compliance with certain elements of each law is required before federal funding can be obligated. A significant number of environmental provisions in both the House and Senate bills either specify procedures or authorize funding to facilitate compliance with one or both of these laws. In addition to provisions related to the Clean Air Act and NEPA, both the House and Senate bills include provisions that would authorize funding for projects or activities associated with environmental impacts from transportation-related projects. Potential environmental impacts may require federal funding to mitigate or minimize those impacts, to reduce pollution, or to ensure compliance with an applicable environmental law or regulation. For example, provisions in the Senate bill would set aside funds to mitigate stormwater discharge damage from highway projects. Legislation authorizing surface transportation programs for FY1998-FY2003, the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21, P.L. 105-178), expired on September 30, 2003. In accordance with a series of extension bills, all existing surface transportation programs continue to operate according to provisions of TEA- 21 while Congress considers reauthorization proposals. The most recent extension (H.R. 4916, P.L. 108-280) extended funding for highway programs until September 24, 2004, and funding for transit and safety programs until September 30, 2004. This report will be updated.

This report considers specific research needs relating to surface transportation and air quality. The greatest immediate need of transportation policy makers and administrators for environmental information and analysis is probably in support of programs for complying with federal clean air regulations. Water quality, noise, and land use are environmental concerns linked to transportation, and these issues will be important considerations in transportation policy making in the future.

Mass transportation has become central to the lifestyle of developed societies - but with what consequences for the environment and, ultimately, human health? Transport and the Environment investigates the major aspects of this emotive subject, with contributions from authors with international reputations for their research in the field. Discussions encompass air transport and its contribution to global pollution, the possible consequences of using hydrogen as a fuel, performance indicators and policy instruments for sustainable transport, the contamination of the atmosphere and surface waters by road vehicles, the impact of surface transport on climate, and the effects of transport pollutants on public health. This authoritative review of the current state of knowledge will be of great value to scientists, policy-makers and students on environmental science and engineering courses.
