Environmental Justice and the MPOThe Des Moines Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) works to ensure the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all residents in the region. This means that no group, including a racial, ethnic, or socioeconomic group, should bear a disproportionate share of negative health or environmental consequences of any project. To ensure fair treatment, the MPO studies seven Degrees of Disadvantage to identify environmental justice (EJ) areas, or those areas with large populations of traditionally under served individuals. EJ areas in the region can be seen in the map below.

Regional Performance MeasuresThe region’s long-range transportation plan, Mobilizing Tomorrow, laid out several performance measures comparing EJ areas to Non-EJ areas. Targets were set to ensure that fair conditions are being met when looking at future conditions of the region’s transportation network. The MPO continually updates data for regional performance measures. Since the approval of Mobilizing Tomorrow in November 2014, the MPO has produced performance reports for measures that include EJ information. The table below is a summary of the EJ measures from those reports.

Certain measures included in the chart do not have 2050 targets. These measures help give a clearer understanding of the current system without setting a goal for the future.

IDENTIFYING EJ AREAS

Seven Degrees of DisadvantageThe Degrees of Disadvantage (DoD) methodology looks at U.S. Census Bureau data at the tract level to determine where EJ areas are located in the region. Data is obtained for seven population groups, including non-white population, car-less households, persons in poverty, single heads of households with children, persons over 65, limited English proficiency (LEP), and persons with a disability. A regional average for the percent of people in each of the population groups is then determined; if any one census tract is above the regional average, then a point is given to that tract. If a census tract has at least six points (out of seven), then it is classified as an EJ area.

Interactive map of EJ areas and the seven degrees is available at:
