Abstract:

Environmental justice and transportation equity concerns pertain to discriminatory outcomes in

planning, operation and maintenance, and infrastructure development by state and metropolitan

systems. On February 11, 1994, President Bill Clinton signed Executive Order 12898, Federal

Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations.

Two major federal laws, the National Environmental Protection Agency (NEPA) and Title VI of

the Civil Rights Act, are highlighted in the Executive Order. This study provides an overview of

literature and case studies regarding Environmental Justice issues and concerns. Additionally, the

study includes survey responses of state DOT’s and MPO’s about their methods of addressing

environmental justice in planning and projects.
