About
Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments
OKI has final authority over all federal dollars spent on transportation in the region. Each year, OKI approves roughly $35 million in funding for projects in the region. While OKI’s primary mission has been surface transportation, OKI is not confined to just highways and pavement: •Since federal transportation investments stimulate land use change, OKI developed a Fiscal Impact Analysis Model to give local governments a way to determine costs and benefits by analyzing the budgetary impacts of alternative land use scenarios. • OKI’s Water Quality Planning Program involves work that enables wastewater treatment projects to obtain permits and promotes practices to reduce stormwater runoff and restore streams. • OKI’s Clean Air Program is leading the fight for cleaner air in the region by bringing ozone and particulate matter pollution issues to the forefront of people’s minds
