Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this report is to summarize the data that have been collected, provide references to other researched material that supports the findings of this study, and provide a set of viable recommendations for moving forward with the preparation of a hazardous materials transportation plan (HMTP) for ADOT. Overviews of other states' programs are documented and describe which plans or portions of the plans may be adapted for use by ADOT. This report includes an overview of the computer modeling software available, and discusses the evaluations of the models. State and federal regulations and guidance with regard to transportation of hazardous materials and incidents involving hazardous materials are discussed. Strengths and weaknesses of some of the available data are identified. It is concluded that ADOT should consider the Texas approach for preparing an HMTP. The following are actionable recommendations to begin the process for the HMTP preparation: - Use the Texas Administrative Codes as a basis for Arizona to develop and pass similar statutes. - Support a statute to require all trucks transporting hazardous materials to stop at ports of entry. - Develop a Web site with GIS-based maps for designated routes and other suitable information. - Create an alliance with AZSERC for using the commodity flow studies and prioritize corridors for completion of coverage of the state. - Form an interagency task force consisting of representatives from ADOT, AZSERC, ADPS, EMD, FHWA, FMCSA, metro Phoenix and Tucson municipalities, and others. - Fill in data gaps with air, rail, borders, and intrastate transport of hazardous materials. - Participate in a peer-to-peer program with Texas DOT for experience and technical transfer related to the HMTP preparation and utilization.

Book Comparative Risks of Transporting Hazardous Materials on the State Highway System in Arizona

Download or read book Comparative Risks of Transporting Hazardous Materials on the State Highway System in Arizona written by Charles D. Anders and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research study was to assess the risks associated with the transportation of hazardous materials and hazardous waste on the Arizona state highway system. Another objective of the study was to evaluate the use of a Geographic Information System (GIS) to model the risks to the public. A statewide GIS model was developed which included over 600 individual segments on the State highway system. Volumes of different categories of hazardous materials were estimated for each segment based on data collected in a previous statewide survey. Truck accident rates were assigned to each segment based on the past accident experience for that segment. Population data from the 1980 census were spatially distributed throughout the state. In addition, the location of emergency response units was also integrated into the model. For each highway segment, the model estimated the relative probability that a hazardous material incident would occur, the potential population that would be impacted and the emergency response time from the nearest response unit. The results are presented through a series of color maps which depict the relative risk for each category of hazardous material evaluated. The use of the GIS system proved very useful and allowed the integration of highway segment information such as traffic volumes and truck accident rate with spatial data such as population. Emergency response time was easily calculated by the GIS model based on the response unit's proximity to each highway segment. Use of the GIS model also resulted in a more detailed evaluation that has the capability to easily consider additional spatial data such as land use, location of schools and hospitals, weather patterns, etc.
