Dear All:
I am participating as a witness in some Tribunal hearing and the matter of an
"ecosystem approach" to land use planning has come up. There is plenty of
material on the web and including that of the US Federal Highways Administration
who claim to use the "ecosystem approach" in their planning, management and
construction the nation's Interstate Highway system.
Does anyone know where I can obtain a fairly good estimate of the total area of
land and/or water that has been covered by the Interstate Highway system,
including the cloverleafs, ramps, and the center and side strips?? Is such an
estimate and discussion available on the web, perhaps? Would appreciate
suggestions. Thanks.
Ted
