E-MAIL: Stephanie Curtis, stephanie.curtis@fhwa.dot.gov. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) plans to award a purchase order to The Eno Transportation Foundation to develop an annual program of two workshops on integrating public and private sector freight planning. The workshops will be held in regions that have exemplary mechanisms in place that demonstrates effective cooperation between freight carriers, the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) and state Department of Transportation (DOT). The Eno Foundation has assembled a unique team from the public and private sector to examine key elements of intermodal freight transportation and the metropolitan planning process, with the aim of improving, understanding and building sustainable partnerships between MPO_s and freight interests. The organizations and associations formed by the Eno Foundation are critical to the success of the seminars and these are the only organizations representing their particular constituencies (State DOT_s, MPO_s and private sector intermodal industry). Because the Eno-led consortium consists of associations and organizations representing their particular constituencies, they are the only known source available that can develop the workshops on integrating public and private sector freight planning. This is a Simplified Acquisition and the anticipated award date is July 29, 1999. Posted 07/15/99 (D-SN354359). (0196)
