12:00 pm ADJOURN

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and the Transportation Research Board are committed to the values of diversity, honesty, civility, and respect for each person as an individual in all of our activities and undertakings. We look to you, as a participant in the TRB Annual Meeting, to be our partner in this effort. You can help us maintain an environment that’s free of harassment and intimidation by not committing harassing acts, not tolerating or ignoring those of others, and by avoiding knowingly placing others in situations where they may be harassed. If you feel you have been harassed or are aware of a situation involving the harassment of someone else, please do not hesitate to call 202-286-0661, a special Harassment Report number, during the dates of January 6–15. (In an emergency, you still should call Security, in the Marriott at 202-824-9667, or in the Convention Center at 202-249-3333, or if elsewhere call 911.)

Harassment-Free Environment

In an emergency, dial 202-824-9667 (or 59667 on a house phone) to reach the Marriott Marquis’ security department. Do not call 911, as the hotel can respond more quickly and can better direct first responders to where they're needed. We recommend you add this number to your contact list now, so you won't need to look for it later.

Have an exit plan. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the route to the nearest exit from this room.

If an alarm sounds, please end your event immediately and evacuate the building. The escalators located in the center of each floor can be used to access the main lobby and exits. Additional stairs are located behind the elevators at each end of the main hallway on each level.

In case of evacuation, attendees should gather on the lawn of the Carnegie Library, across the street from the main entrance to the Convention Center. (If blocked by construction fence, walk left to access the lawn on the 7th Street side of the library.)
