	Documents Technical Memorandum #1 is the first of four reports to be developed for the Inland Pacific Hub Phase 1 Transportation Study. Technical Memorandum #1: Inland Pacific Hub Infrastructure Report identifies the Inland Pacific Hub bi-state study region's existing multimodal transportation infrastructure, including the primary distribution system, the major nodes for transfer and storage, and the local network between the distribution system and the nodes. Click on the sections below to view the Tech Memo #1 document: Tech Memo #1 - Section 1 Tech Memo #1 - Section 2 Technical Memorandum #2: Inland Pacific Multimodal Trade Assessment will provide a comprehensive report covering the complete analyses of commodity, trade, logistics and economic data analysis. The purpose of Tech Memo #2 is to summarize the findings from the analysis, supplemented with graphics and maps to "tell a story" regarding transportation needs that will support economic development for the Inland Pacific Hub region. Technical Memorandum #3: Transportation Related Economic Development Opportunities for the Inland Pacific Hub will provide an inventory of commercial properties and technology resources for the region. This Tech Memo will also discuss the region's economic strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities for future development. County profiles highlighting available commercial and technology assets across the region will be included as appendices to Tech Memo #3. The Final Report will describe interrelationships between transportation and economic development for the Inland Pacific Hub. The report will define the Inland Pacific Hub region’s freight movement and economic influence. The Final Report will address the implications of commerce (including e-commerce) on freight movement throughout the region as well as the limitations of freight mobility infrastructure on commerce. The report will review existing freight and economic capacity, and examine freight and economic trends that may impact the future economic climate of the region. The report will also discuss the opportunities for and feasibility of intermodal transportation facilities and make recommendations for future improvements. Additionally, the impact of emerging technologies in the movement of freight and how that applies to the future of transportation in the region will be highlighted.
