As part of the Every Day Counts Round 7, 40 states have committed to implementing the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Sustainable Project Delivery initiative. The program promotes the collection of EPDs on transportation projects. The Sustainable Pavements Program Team will be engaging these states in the coming weeks to identify specific activities to support implementation.
In support of the program, several EPD-7 resources are available.
Next Community of Knowledge Webinar on Establishing Benchmarks Using Industry Averages
All public agency staff such as state DOTs, cities, and federal agencies (including consultants and academics working directly with a public agency) are invited to participate in the next Community of Knowledge Webinar on Monday, September 11 at 2pm ET. The webinar will explore how transportation agencies can use industry provided greenhouse gas emissions data to identify materials that meet specific global warming potential (GWP) thresholds. Register to participate in the webinar. Technical information shared during previous Community of Knowledge webinars is available online.
