Special Report: The Infrastructure Roundtables: Seeking Solutions to an American Crisis
In mid-January, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) convened a series of five roundtables in Washington, D.C., that were conceived as in-depth discussions of how best to address the nation’s significant infrastructure deficiencies, which threaten not only the safety and welfare of the public but also the nation’s economic growth and competitiveness. Each roundtable had its own moderator and slate of participants, and the participants included well-respected political leaders, policy leaders, and members of ASCE who are well versed on the subject of critical infrastructure. The starting points for these discussions were the five key solutions outlined in ASCE’s 2009 Report Card for America’s Infrastructure, which was released in March 2009. In essence what these roundtables were striving to achieve was to develop a framework for giving full dimension to these solutions and securing for them positions of high visibility and high priority on the national agenda.
