The report card evaluates 15 categories of infrastructure.in energy, public facilities, transportation, and water and the environment.by assigning letter grades that are based on physical condition and needed fiscal investments for improvement. With a cumulative grade of D, the 2009 Report Card finds that not much has changed since the previous report card of four years ago. Each category is presented by a snapshot of current conditions, recommended solutions, and instructive case studies. Topics include: dams, drinking water, hazardous waste, levees, solid waste, wastewater, aviation, bridges, inland waterways, ports, rail, roads, transit, public parks and recreation, schools, and energy. 588 Print version record. 650 0 Infrastructure (Economics) |zUnited States. 650 0 Civil engineering |zUnited States. 650 0 Public works |zUnited States |xEvaluation. 650 0 Public works |zUnited States |xMaintenance and repair. 653 0 Infrastructure 653 0 Public transportation 653 0 Public health and safety 653 0 Hydro power 653 0 Public buildings 653 0 Case studies 653 0 Water-based recreation 653 0 Solid wastes 776 |z0-7844-1037-2 906 BOOK
