| 摘要： | The Federal guidelines on environmental justice that amplify Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, growing attention has been placed on the need to incorporate environmental justice principles into the processes and products of transportation planning. In response to this important challenge, Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) around the country have begun developing methods to assess the impacts of their transportation plans and planning processes on low income and minority populations. One such agency is the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC), the MPO for the greater Columbus, Ohio,region. MORPC convened a task force to develop a process with which to assess and ensure compliance of the agency's transportation planning efforts with environmental justice requirements of Title VI. This process ultimately contained four key steps: Identify and map locations of low-income and minority populations; Identify transportation needs of target populations; Document and evaluate the agency's public involvement process and Quantitatively assess benefits and burdens of transportation plans with respect to target populations. |
