Abstract:This report documents the results of State Planning and Research (SPR) 543 Strategies to Integrate Environmental Stewardship into ADOT’s Business. The primary objectives of this research were to qualitatively evaluate the environmental performance of ADOT and to identify opportunity areas and strategies/actions for improving environmental performance. A collaborative approach to the research was used in executing the information-gathering, performance evaluation, documentation, and review elements of the research project. Two rounds of nine workshops involving a broad cross section of ADOT managers, supervisors, employees, and consultant personnel were conducted between July 2003 and April 2004. Representatives from Transportation Planning, Maintenance, Transportation Services, General Operations, Equipment Services, Construction, Aeronautics, Development , and the Motor Vehicle Division participated in the workshops. Technical Advisory Committee members selectively participated in the workshops. Before and after each round of workshops, the AASHTO consultant and the TAC met to discuss the workshop plans and outcomes. Based on the information gained from the 18 workshops, additional interactions with ADOT personnel, and review of background information provided, the researcher evaluated the environmental performance of the nine ADOT organizations and identified opportunity areas and strategies/actions for improving ADOT’s environmental performance and stewardship. Overarching environmental performance improvement opportunities and strategies were identified in 13 environmental performance areas to improve ADOT’s overall environmental performance and stewardship. Organization-specific environmental performance improvement opportunities were identified for each of the nine organizations. The details of the 18 workshops and the environmental performance evaluation are documented in the 11 Technical Memorandums prepared by the researcher. They were reviewed by the nine organizations and revised according to their comments. The Technical Memorandums are on file.
