• Abstract:
  The U.S. Arctic is a dynamic and rapidly evolving maritime region. The recommendations put forward in this report extend beyond the traditional definition of transportation infrastructure (the basic equipment, structures, roads and bridges that are needed for a country, region, or organization to function properly) to include a framework for the necessary elements of a comprehensive U.S. Arctic marine transportation system. This framework necessarily involves elements of the traditional definition, but also includes communication, planning, management, environmental policies, regulatory implementation, and community engagement—all of which are required for safe, secure, and environmentally sound maritime transportation.
