The State and Local Arizona Documents (SALAD) collection contains documents published by the State of Arizona, its Counties, incorporated Cities or Towns, or affiliated Councils of Government; documents produced under the auspices of a state or local agency, board, commission or department, including reports made to these units; and Salt River Project, a licensed municipality. ASU is a primary collector of state publications and makes a concerted effort to acquire and catalog most materials published by state and local governmental agencies.

The ASU Digital Repository provides access to digital SALAD publications, however the ASU Libraries’ non-digitized Arizona documents can be searched through the ASU Libraries Catalog. For additional assistance, Ask A Government Documents Librarian.

Publications issued by the Morrison Institute for Public Programs at Arizona State University are also available in PRISM, in the Morrison Institute for Public Policy - Publications Archive collection.

This report provides an implementation plan that allows the Arizona Department of Transportation and other agencies in Arizona to make optimal use, through local data inputs, of the United States (US) Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator (MOVES) model. MOVES is the federally approved mobile source emissions model for use in State Implementation Plan development and conformity analysis, and is recommended for other transportation air quality analysis purposes. EPA requires or recommends using local data for many of the model's inputs. This report includes an assessment of Arizona-specific data and the processing necessary to create these inputs, plus a demonstration of data-processing procedures using Yuma County as a case study. The recommendations are intended for applying the MOVES model anywhere in the state of Arizona, but are not meant to supersede work by metropolitan agencies that may use more detailed data than available in other regions of the state. This study focuses on the latest release of the model, MOVES2014.
