MTC 2035 Plan
By Dan
Are there significant transportation-related environmental issues such as air quality, climate change or land use that MTC should explore in its environmental assessment of the Transportation 2035 Plan?
Contribute to the discussion!
MTC is preparing a Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Transportation 2035 Plan, a master plan to guide the nine-county San Francisco Bay Area region's transportation investments over the next 25 years. The EIR for the Transportation 2035 Plan will analyze the broad, regional environmental impacts of implementing the investments identified in the plan.
MTC currently is seeking comments on the scope and content of the environmental information that will be evaluated in the EIR. Two regional scoping meetings will be held to solicit this input:

Joseph P. Bort MetroCenter
Claremont Conference Room

Thursday, March 13, 2008
6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Joseph P. Bort MetroCenter
Lawrence D. Dahms Auditorium

These meetings also will provide an opportunity for agencies and the public to consult with MTC about the Transportation 2035 Plan and the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).
Written comments can be sent to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, 101 Eighth Street, Oakland, CA 94607 (attention: Ashley Nguyen, EIR Project Manager). Comments must be received by MTC by no later than March 21, 2008.
