The iCAP Working Group (iWG) met on May 4, 2015, to discuss and assess the SWATeam recommendation, Trans001 TEM_DMI. Their official comment on the recommendation was:
"Revise the TEM system to capture sustainability metrics for travel, such as categorized travel purposes and total miles traveled by each mode, in order to enable future reporting in DMI by unit, funding source, etc. OBFS should work with the Transportation SWATeam and iSEE staff to identify and optimize these metrics."
See attached the iWG assessment complete with official comments from all the iWG members.

Dear iCAP Working Group Members,
As a reminder, we will be meeting this Thursday at 1:30 (and also next Thursday, 4/9, at 1:30).
This week we will discuss the timeline for completing our work on the iCAP, and then turn our attention to the 7 attached formal recommendations we've received from the Transportation and Purchasing, Waste, and Recycling SWATeams. Please review these in advance of the meeting, so that we can discuss them most efficiently. If you will not be able to join us due to a schedule conflict, please email me in advance if you have any particular concerns.
Next week (4/9), we'll be joined by Kent Reifsteck and Mike Larson from F&S, and also Scott Willenbrock from the Energy Generation SWATeam, so that we can discuss what the iCAP should say about charting a pathway for clean energy for our campus.
Thanks,
Ben

Several recommendations were discussed from the Transportation SWATeam and the Puchasing, Waste, and Recycling SWATeam.
The University requested bids from vendors in FY15 for the purchase of 70 4-loop and 60 5-loop bike racks. RJ Thomas Manufacturing Co. Inc. were one of those who responded to this bid. The University received these new 70 4-loop and 60 5-loop bike racks from this vendor in Spring 2015.
The Transportation SWATeam submitted a recommendation, Trans001 TEM_DMI, to the iWG stating, "The transportation SWATeam recommends that the data for faculty/staff travel be collected through the campus Travel and Expense Management (TEM) and Division of Management Information (DMI) system. The program should require that faculty/staff (or the unit head) report travel purposes and funding sources when they request travel expense reimbursement via TEM and the DMI manage and analyze the database."
See attached the SWATeam recommendation, Trans001 TEM_DMI, complete with comments from all the Transportation SWATeam members.
The Transportation SWATeam submitted a recommendation stating, "We recommend that Parking Services organize a survey to gauge stakeholder interest in alternative parking plans. More specifically, a survey to gather data on how receptive stakeholders would be to parking plans which included a smaller amount of parking days per year to permit alternative commuting modes when this is feasible."
See attached the SWATeam recommendation, Trans002 Parking Survey, complete with comments from all the Transportation SWATeam members.
The Transportation SWATeam submitted a recommendation stating, "To hire a Sustainable Transportation Coordinator. This individual would ensure the success of the other transportation recommendations from the iCAP and be the key asset within our University to promote reducing single-vehicle occupancy."
See attached the SWATeam recommendation, Trans003 Sustainable Transportation Coordinator, complete with comments from all the Transportation SWATeam members.
The Transportation SWATeam submitted a recommendation to the iWG stating, "Perform a general analysis and recommendations regarding the potential to transition the University fleet to renewable fuels. This analysis would review the types and usage of University vehicles, the current and short term expectation for vehicle availability and propose various plans (i.e. conservative, moderate and aggressive) for GHG emission reductions along with approximate fiscal impact for each plan."
See the SWATeam recommendation, Trans004 Fleet Study, complete with comments from all the Transportation SWATeam members.
Administrative Information Technology Services (AITS) has played a large role in leading this discussion and is working with Facilities & Services to try to implement a bike share program before Fall 2014. AITS hopes to partner with other departments on campus to create a cohesive and connected bike share system within the University.
On March 3, 2015, the Chancellor's Capital Review Committee formally approved the 2014 Campus Bike Plan for inclusion in the official Master Planning documents.
