Home | Reducing carbon pollution from transportation
Sustainable Transportation Advisory Council
The Sustainable Transportation Advisory Council (STAC) makes recommendations to the MnDOT Commissioner. Recommendations consist of strategies to help the agency reduce carbon pollution from transportation. This is consistent with the MnDOT statutory goals outlined in Minnesota statute 174.01, the Next Generation Energy Act, and the annual MnDOT Sustainability Report. The STAC focuses on recommendations that value equity and environmental justice.
Goals
The goal of the STAC is to help Minnesota transition to a low-carbon transportation system in a way that is consistent with statutory goals for energy and emissions reductions and maximizes benefits to Minnesota, while recognizing the importance of continued work towards improving safety, reducing inequities, and supporting economic development.
Please see the STAC Charter (PDF) and membership list (PDF) for more information on the council.
