iCAP Working Group Agenda for 4/2/2015
Associated Project(s):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).
Trans004 Fleet Study recommendation - Submittal
Associated Project(s):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."
Trans003 Sustainable Transportation Coordinator recommendation - Submittal
Associated Project(s):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.
Trans002 Parking Survey recommendation - Submittal
Associated Project(s):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.
Trans001 TEM_DMI recommendation - Submittal
Associated Project(s):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."

update from Ben McCall
Associated Project(s):Dear Transportation SWATeam,
Morgan and I had a very nice discussion with Pam Voitik at F&S late last week, and I wanted to brief you on some of the key points as they relate to the iCAP revisions.
Update from Ben McCall
Associated Project(s):Dear Transportation SWATeam, [Sorry for the barrage of emails...this is the last one for this morning!]
I met with Michelle Wahl from Parking late last week, and she had some very useful comments on the iCAP draft that I thought I should share with you:
air travel info
Associated Project(s):Dear Transportation SWATeam,
After extensive discussions with experts at University Payables, we have come to the conclusion that the apparent increase in air travel emissions in recent years may be due to the fact that the new TEM system more accurately captures air travel purchases than the previous systems did. Payables is confident that the numbers for FY14 are accurate, but really does not have confidence in the earlier numbers because air travel was often reimbursed to travelers together with other travel expenses and may not have been captured in previous reports.Parking Department Information
Associated Project(s):Michelle Wahl is on board regarding attendance at our next meeting. I'm attaching some basic cost information regarding costs of constructing/maintaining spaces on campus that she has provided. She is willing to provide more information, if requested. However, it might be beneficial for her to meet with the group to discuss what is desired rather than having her shotgun us with financial information. - Pete
draft chapter for iCAP
Associated Project(s):Dear Colleagues
On your behalf I am pleased to submit our final Transportation ICAP report
Thanks for all your hard work.
I will work on getting us together again soon
Have a happy halloween :-)
