Impacts Of The Extended-Weight Coal Haul Road System, Jerry G. Pigman, Joseph D. Crabtree, Kenneth R. Agent, R. Clark Graves, John A. Deacon

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The Extended-Weight Coal Haul Road System, created by the Kentucky Legislature in 1986, consists of all roads which carry over 50,000 tons of coal in a calendar year. Trucks hauling coal on this system are authorized to exceed normal weight limits through the payment of an annual decal fee. A research study was initiated in July of 1992 to analyze the impacts of the extended-weight system.

Analyses in this report are based on the following: historical data on coal production and transportation: data from coal decal applications; interviews of legislators. transportation officials. coal company representatives. and coal trucking representatives: newspaper …

Rural Transportation: Using Vouchers To Improve Access, University Of Montana Rural Institute

Independent Living and Community Participation

Transportation is one of the most frequently cited problems of people with disabilities living in rural areas. This includes transportation to and from work, personal and social obligations in and around small communities, and transportation from home to larger communities where services are available. Cutbacks in air, rail and bus services to rural areas have made these problems even more challenging for those with severe disabilities who often have low, fixed incomes. While many larger communities may have one or more major social service agencies, such as an aging services program, that cooperate to provide transportation services under various regulations, …

Doctoral Theses

This thosin in devoted to the study of aome probloms related to the inclusion of a pair of (usually hyperfinite) Ili factors R. Specifically, the following and the relation between them are studied:(a) pairs of graphs which can occur as principal grapha for NC M;(b) construction of commuting squares starting with a pair of finite graphs;(c) computation of the higher relative commutants of sublactorn con- structed from specific commuting squares.The first chapter is introductory in nature and is included for the sake of comploteness and convenience of reference. It contains a rather perfunctory description of the basic construction for a …

Evaluation Of Key Factors In Transportation Risk Analysis, Krishnapriya Madhavapeddi

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

Pursuant to the enactment of federal legislation, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is presently evaluating Yucca Mountain as a candidate site for a repository to store spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and high-level radioactive waste (HLRW). Risk analyses could be used to support transportation decisions (such as route and mode selection) pertaining to the repository program; The purpose of this study is to develop a procedure to facilitate comparative transportation risk assessment. A case study of Lincoln County, Nevada is used to discuss the significance of key input data required to support such risk analysis. A methodology was developed to …

A Framework For Modeling Risk And Emergency Response In Hazardous Materials Transportation, Emelinda Maano Parentela

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

Hazardous materials transport is a significant economic activity. Routing is one of the key issues in hazardous materials transport. Cost and risk are primary factors influencing routing. Emergency preparedness is an issue that is common to all of these. Traditionally, risks and emergency preparedness have been addressed as two interdependent issues, but the interactions between them have not been addressed explicitly. This often results in risk estimates that ignore the effect of emergency preparedness; This research presents a framework for quantifying effects of emergency preparedness on risk of hazardous materials transportation. Risk estimates are typically based on the probability of …

C & A Carbone V. Clarkstown: A Wake-Up Call For The Dormant Commerce Clause, Rachel D. Baker

Duke Environmental Law & Policy Forum

Introduction Garbage collection, transportation, and disposal have historically been the responsibility of individual towns and cities in the United States. 1 However, stringent environmental regulations, declining landfill capacity, and the implementation of costly source reduction and recycling programs have greatly increased the costs of waste management borne by towns. 2 For the past two decades, many local governments have relied on "flow control" ordinances to finance their solid waste management activities. 3 These ordinances designate where municipal solid waste generated within the community must be managed, stored, or disposed. 4 Recently, in C & A Carbone, Inc. v. Town of …
