Transportation and Policy AnalysisPolicy Analysis, Strategic Planning, and Regulatory Program SupportOn-road and off-road transportation sources are significant contributors to urban air pollution. STI policy analysts help clients evaluate problem-solving options related to motor vehicle fuels, new vehicle standards, transportation control measures, conformity, and inspection and maintenance (I/M). Our projects include policy and technical studies. STI policy work includes assisting transportation and air quality planning agencies to address conformity issues and improve control measure implementation. Our technical efforts involve air quality data analysis, emissions analyses, and control measure effectiveness research. STI scientists facilitate complex policy negotiations involving multiple parties, provide education and outreach to air quality stakeholders, develop policy-oriented risk assessment tools, and evaluate the costs and benefits of control strategy options. We have performed "top-down" emission inventory evaluations, exposure assessments, conformity analyses, air toxics evaluations, I/M station performance assessments, and fuel improvement evaluations.
