The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) is firmly committed to a proactive environmental ethic in providing a safe, efficient, balanced, and environmentally sound transportation system in the state of New York. This includes conducting maintenance, equipment management, and construction activities appropriately to prevent and minimize adverse impacts on the environment and to enhance the environment whenever possible. The maintenance and operations at NTSDOT show how the operational capabilities of a department of transportation can be brought to bear on the environmental stewardship responsibilities shared by all governmental organizations.
