About the Center
Organization
The Center functions as a virtual DOT-wide organization, with a membership of nine DOT operating administrations and the Office of the Secretary of DOT. Strategic direction is provided by a Climate Council comprised of the administrators of the member organizations. A steering committee of senior executives from each of the member organizations leads the Center. Operating administrations support the Center's work through contributions of funds, staff, and technical expertise, and by participating in Center efforts to share information, build partnerships, and coordinate activities related to climate change. A cross-modal, virtual structure helps to ensure strong participation throughout the DOT, while avoiding unnecessary administrative and institutional costs.
