The Integrated Ecological Framework is now Fully Accessible through TCAPP

The Integrated Ecological Framework (IEF) (a step-by-step process that guides transportation and resource specialists in the integration of transportation and ecological decision making) is now available through TCAPP. This material can be accessed by going to My Agency Is and navigating to the Resource Agency page. The IEF is presented in nine steps. Clicking on an individual IEF step leads to extensive information such as, sub-steps, technical questions, case studies and supporting tools and methods.

Over the coming months additional changes will be made to TCAPP to:
-Explain how the IEF informs key decisions in long range planning and other phases of transportation decision making
-Make the IEF accessible through other pages on TCAPP
-Integrate the IEF in the detailed information supporting each key decision

TCAPP Connect will be updated as these changes are implemented.

The integration of the IEF is a major enhancement to TCAPP and will support collaboration among transportation and resource specialists. Please share your thoughts about this new material – both what is working well and what you would change – by adding to this discussion.
