This Webcast will provide an overview of the DOT-HUD-EPA Partnership for Sustainable Communities and highlight its current efforts. Earlier this year the U.S. Department of Transportation, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced a new interagency partnership to help families gain better access to affordable housing, more transportation options, and lower transportation costs. The unprecedented agreement establishes six “livability principles” that will coordinate policy for federal transportation, environmental protection, and housing investments. The Webcast is aimed principally at management and staff of state DOTs and MPOs, and also will be of interest to environmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, universities, and private-sector organizations. During the live program, participants will be invited to submit questions via email for panelists to discuss following their presentations. Go to http://cte.ncsu.edu/cte for more information on this Webcast, a list of the panelists, and to register. More information about the DOT-HUD-EPA Partnership for Sustainable Communities is available at www.epa.gov/dced/2009-0616-epahuddot.htm
