Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nation's physical infrastructure consists of a broad array of systems and facilities that house and transport people and goods and provide services. Among other things, this infrastructure includes transportation networks, including roads, airports, rail, and mass transit; housing; federal buildings and facilities; and postal and telecommunications services. These systems and facilities do not exist in isolation: decisions about where to build or expand roads affect decisions about housing and vice versa, and, in turn, these decisions affect the need for and location of public facilities and communications and energy services. Historically, the federal government has supported the construction of much of this infrastructure and helped to ensure the safety of services it provides. It builds, owns, operates, and maintains federal infrastructure such as federal buildings, dams, and waterways; financially assists state and local governments to build, own, operate, and maintain facilities such as roads, transit systems, and airports; and regulates public works. State and local governments and the private sector also play significant roles in planning, developing, and maintaining this infrastructure.

Book Synopsis Investments in Federal Facilities by : National Research Council
Download or read book Investments in Federal Facilities written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-06-24 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facilities now owned by the Federal Government are valued at over $300 billion. It also spends over $25 billion per year for acquisition, renovation, and upkeep. Despite the size of these sums, there is a growing litany of problems with federal facilities that continues to put a drain on the federal budget and compromise the effectiveness of federal services. To examine ways to address these problems, the sponsoring agencies of the Federal Facilities Council (FFC) asked the National Research Council (NRC) to develop guidelines for making improved decisions about investment in and renewal, maintenance, and replacement of federal facilities. This report provides the result of that assessment. It presents a review of both public and private practices used to support such decision making and identifies appropriate objectives, practices, and performance measures. The report presents a series of recommendations designed to assist federal agencies and departments improve management of and investment decision making for their facilities.

Book Synopsis The Federal Management Playbook by : Ira Goldstein
Download or read book The Federal Management Playbook written by Ira Goldstein and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories of government management failures often make the headlines, but quietly much gets done as well. What makes the difference? Ira Goldstein offers wisdom about how to lead and succeed in the federal realm, even during periods when the political climate is intensely negative, based on his decades of experience as a senior executive at two major government consulting firms and as a member of the US federal government's Senior Executive Service. The Federal Management Playbook coaches the importance of always keeping four key concepts in mind when planning for success: goals, stakeholders, resources, and time frames. Its chapters address how to effectively motivate government employees, pick the right technologies, communicate and negotiate with powerful stakeholders, manage risks, get value from contractors, foster innovation, and more. Goldstein makes lessons easy to apply by breaking each chapter’s plans into three strategic phases: create an offensive strategy, execute your plan effectively, and play a smart defense. Additional tips describe how career civil servants and political appointees can get the most from one another, advise consultants on providing value to government, and help everyone better manage ever-present oversight. The Federal Management Playbook is a must-read for anyone working in the government realm and for students who aspire to public service.

Book Synopsis Building an Emerald City by : Lucia Athens
Download or read book Building an Emerald City written by Lucia Athens and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-06-22 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000, Seattle, Washington, became the first U.S. city to officially adopt the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) “Silver” standards for its own major construction projects. In the midst of a municipal building boom, it set new targets for building and remodeling to LEED guidelines. Its first LEED certified project, the Seattle Justice Center, was completed in 2002. The city is now home to one of the highest concentrations of LEED buildings in the world. Building an Emerald City is the story of how Seattle transformed itself into a leader in sustainable “green” building, written by one of the principal figures in that transformation. It is both a personal account—filled with the experiences and insights of an insider—and a guide for anyone who wants to bring about similar changes in any city. It includes “best practice” models from municipalities across the nation, supplemented by the contributions of “guest authors” who offer stories and tips from their own experiences in other cities. Intended as a “roadmap” for policy makers, public officials and representatives, large-scale builders and land developers, and green advocates of every stripe, Building an Emerald City is that rare book—one that is both inspirational and practical.

Book excerpt: Die Europäische Nordsee Energie Allianz (‚ENSEA‘) ist ein von der Europäischen Kommission gefördertes Projekt, welches im Rahmen des FP7-Programms „Kapazitäten-Wissensregionen“ zwischen dem 01.10.2012 und dem 31.12.2015 durchgeführt wurde. Hauptziel ist der gezielte Aufbau internationaler Kooperationen zwischen Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und öffentlicher Verwaltung in regionalen Energiesektoren (Triple-Helix-Ansatz) und die Entwicklung von Wissen über Energiesystemintegration innerhalb internationaler Regionen. Partner des ENSEA-Verbundes sind die nördlichen Niederlande, der Nordwesten Deutschlands, der Südwesten Norwegens und Schottland. Die Vereinigung und Analyse der Innovationskapazitäten der Partnerregionen, die Zusammenführung bestehenden Energie-Know-hows, die Abstimmung von regionalen, nationalen und europäischen Forschungsprogrammen sowie die Verstetigung der Zusammenarbeit sind die wichtigsten Ergebnisse der in dieser Schriftenreihe vorgestellten Aktivitäten. Ergänzend wird ein Maßnahmenkatalog für die Politikentwicklung vorgestellt, welcher im Rahmen der ENSEA-Abschlusskonferenz in Edinburgh erarbeitet wurde. ENSEA leistet damit einen signifikanten Beitrag zur Integration erneuerbarer Energien der Nordsee in das bestehende Onshore-Energiesystem.

Download or read book Toward Infrastructure Improvement written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1994-02-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book advises the federal government on a national infrastructure research agenda. It takes the position that the traditional disciplinary and institutional divisions among infrastructure modes and professions are largely historical artifacts that impose barriers to the development of new technology and encourages the government to embrace a more interdisciplinary approach. In order to be practical, the study focuses on infrastructure technologies that can be incorporated into or overlay current systems, allow for alternative future alternative future urban development, and are likely to have value cutting across the distinct functional modes of infrastructure. Finally, the report is organized according to seven broad cross-cutting areas that should promote interdisciplinary approaches to infrastructure problems: systems life-cycle management, analysis and decision tools, information management, condition assessment and monitoring technology, the science of materials performance and deterioration, construction equipment and procedures, and technology management.
