In 2019, the City of Sparks contracted with the Desert Research Institute to investigate greenhouse gas emissions anticipated to come from traffic to and from the Tahoe Reno Industrial Center (TRIC) from the Sparks area.  They modelled the gases forecast to come from exsting roads, primarly Pyramid Way and Interstate 80, and gases forecast to come from a conceputally proposed new roadway that would connect La Posada Road to USA Parkway.

The purpose of the presentation is to present the findings of the analysis.
