General Information |
|
Working Committees will consist of technical experts from both the public and private sectors. Each committee will be composed of approximately 4 to 6 people. Each committee will develop detailed methodology for their specific category using guidelines provided in the Methodology. Each working committee will gather data – either review of existing data where available or surveys for new data. The kind of data collected would result in: assessment of infrastructure using the existing reported grades weighted by population, cost of needed projects to reach an acceptable level of improvements in 2008 dollars, identify dollars needed for total need, identify dollars needed for unmet needs, percent capacity of problem, quantity of infrastructure, consequences of doing nothing, and strategies for making a difference. Detailed data will be collected and evaluated within the following four fundamental components: condition of existing infrastructures, capacity for future services delivery, deferred maintenance, and security and safety. Each committee will compile and analyze the data, resulting in the development of a short (approximately two pages) report for the Review Committee. The report, at a minimum, should summarize the methodology and criteria used, findings and results, and list the sources of data.

Working Committees |

Responsibilities of the Review Committee are to: review and evaluate the methodology, review and validate the Working Committee Findings/Report, develop an overall assessment statement and general overview statements of what each grade means. The Review Committee will have the ability to adjust the grades up or down, based on information not considered by the Working Committee. For example, if review committee senior managers are aware of planned project capital improvement programs or funding commitments that would improve the infrastructure, they could determine that this information justifies a modification of the overall grade. The Review Committee will perform an overall review to “Normalize” the grades. |
