Exploring airport employee commute and parking strategies / by Ricard, Diane M.(CARDINAL)311634; United States.Federal Aviation Administration.(CARDINAL)139906; Airport Cooperative Research Program.(CARDINAL)307624; National Research Council (U.S.).Transportation Research Board.(CARDINAL)141287;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 58-62).Airport employees are vital to the operation of an airport. They staff the airport on a daily basis from well before the first flight operation until after the last flight operation, which at many airports is 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Airport employees generate a significant number of vehicle trips to and from the airport each day, which impacts air quality, airport traffic conditions, and traffic in the communities surrounding the airport and on the freeway system. The purpose of this report was to determine what is known about airport employee commute patterns and commute modes, what programs are being offered to airport employees by the airport operator or a transportation management association (TMA) to provide them with alternatives to the drive alone commute to work, how progress is being monitored, what is known about the effectiveness of airport employee commute options (ECO) programs, what the challenges are for the providers of such programs, and to research some ECO programs offered by non-airport employers for program elements that may have applicability in the airport environment. This report was accomplished through a literature search of airport employee commute programs, commute programs offered by non-airport employers that may have applicability in the airport environment, and through interviews with four U.S. and one U.K. airport operators (of 16 airports and 3 TMAs identified, 84 percent interviewed) that offer comprehensive airport ECO programs. Each of the five case studies provides an example of how ECO strategies are applied in the airport environment.Research sponsored by the Federal Aviation Administration

Sea basing and alternatives for deploying and sustaining ground combat forces. by United States.Congressional Budget Office.(CARDINAL)139854;
Includes bibliographical references.Expeditionary ground forces. The evolution of U.S. expeditionary capabilities ; Operational capabilities desired for a sea base ; Equipment plans for the MPF(F) sea base ; Employment concept for the MPF(F) sea base ; Other means of employing expeditionary ground forces -- Description of access-insensitive systems for employing and sustaining ground forces. Structuring access-insensitive systems to employ and sustain ground forces ; Alternative systems examined by CBO -- Comparison of access-insensitive systems for employing and sustaining ground forces. Sensitivity to access limitations ; Geographic reach ; Strategic responsiveness ; Capability to sustain a ground force."A centerpiece of the Department of Defense's (DoD's) transformation efforts in recent years has been the move toward making ground forces less reliant on access to foreign-controlled facilities such as harbors, airports, or logistics bases on the ground in their area of operations." "The United States Marine Corps and Army have long maintained expeditionary forces organized and equipped to be rapidly moved and inserted into combat with little reliance on access to local bases or infrastructure. Recognizing the vulnerability of forces that are dependent on local access (as U.S. forces have been in Afghanistan and Iraq), the Department of Defense (DoD) is improving its expeditionary capabilities across all of the military services. Prominent among those efforts is the Navy's plan to field a 14-ship squadro--the Maritime Prepositioning Force (Future), or MPF(F--that would be capable of deploying, employing, and sustaining a Marine expeditionary brigade with little or no need for access to local bases or other infrastructure. This study ... looks at the capabilities and costs associated with MPF(F) and sea basing in general as well as other approaches that DoD might take to improve its expeditionary capabilities."--Preface.
