The Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) is leading the development of the 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy (MTP/SCS), alongside the 2050 Regional Transportation Plans for Monterey, San Benito, and Santa Cruz counties. This comprehensive long-range initiative serves as the foundation for regional and federal transportation programming, focusing on an intensified land use distribution approach to concentrate population and employment growth within urban areas. A primary objective of the plan is to meet greenhouse gas reduction targets of 6 percent by 2035 through integrated land use, housing, and transportation planning, while ensuring social equity and identifying funding strategies available through 2050. The project scope encompasses system preservation, strategic network expansion, and travel demand management, including investments in highway capacity, local street improvements, active transportation, and transit. To comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), AMBAG and consulting firm Rincon Consultants, Inc. conducted an extensive environmental review process. This included a Draft Environmental Impact Report released in November 2025, a public review period ending January 30, 2026, and a Final Environmental Impact Report issued in June 2026. The process identified 33 significant and unavoidable impacts, particularly regarding air quality, biological resources, and airport noise, leading to the adoption of specific mitigation measures. The project reached formal approval and certification through Notices of Determination issued in June 2026 by AMBAG and the respective county transportation agencies.

Full Description

Show more
As the metropolitan planning organization for the tri-county region of Monterey, San Benito, and Santa Cruz counties, the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) is charged with developing a 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (MTP/SCS). The 2050 MTP/SCS is both a long-range transportation plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy for Monterey, San Benito, and Santa Cruz counties. The Council of San Benito County Governments, the Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission, and the Transportation Agency for Monterey County are the state-designated Regional Transportation Planning Agencies for San Benito, Santa Cruz, and Monterey counties, respectively. Each prepares a county-level long-range Regional Transportation Plan, which is evaluated in the EIR. The 2050 MTP/SCS is used to guide the development of the Regional and Federal Transportation Improvement Programs, as well as other transportation programming documents and plans. The MTP outlines the region's goals and policies for meeting current and future mobility needs, providing a foundation for transportation decisions by local, regional, and state officials that are ultimately aimed at achieving a coordinated and balanced transportation system. The 2050 MTP/SCS sets forth actions, programs, and projects to address these needs consistent with adopted policies and goals. The 2050 MTP/SCS also documents the financial resources needed to implement the plan. Additionally, pursuant to SB 375, AMBAG (as the regional MPO) must prepare an SCS that demonstrates how the region will meet its greenhouse gas reduction target (6% reduction by 2035) through integrated land use, housing, and transportation planning.

Solicitation # BD-27-1045-BWR00-BWR01-133675
The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) is soliciting interest from Public Water Supplies and municipalities with Water Management Act (WMA) permits or registrations to receive a free American Water Works Association (AWWA) M36 water audit. The program is designed to help entities identify water loss objectives, particularly those failing to meet the Unaccounted-for Water (UAW) performance standard of 10 percent or less. Depending on previous audit history and data validity scores, eligible participants can receive either a Top-Down Audit or a Bottom-up Component Analysis. MassDEP will hire a private consulting firm through a separate public procurement process to conduct these audits. Selection is based on criteria including high UAW rates, WMA allocation status, recent improvement efforts, and permit status, with priority given to WMA permit holders and projects benefiting disadvantaged communities. Participation is limited to entities in compliance with the MBTA Communities Act Law. Selected applicants must provide a written commitment to have detailed system information for 2025 or 2026 available by January 15, 2027, and submit that data by February 2, 2027. Additionally, participants must commit significant personnel time as an in-kind match and be prepared to enter into a contract within 15 to 30 days of the grant award. Responses to this Request for Interest are due by October 21, 2026.
