2007 - 2013 Triad Conformity Report (Adobe PDF - 4.9 MB)

The purpose of this report is to document compliance with the provisions of the Clean Air Act
Amendments of 1990 (CAAA) and the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21). The
conformity determination for the 2007–2013 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is based on
a regional emissions analysis that utilized the transportation networks in adopted and conforming
2030 Long Range Transportation Plans (LRTPs) and the emissions factors developed by the North
Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR). All regionally significant
federally funded projects in areas designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(USEPA) as air quality nonattainment or maintenance areas must come from a conforming LRTP and
TIP.
