Food safety concerns include bacterial hazards such as e. coli, the rise of antibiotic resistant bacterial strains, and the accidental or intentional chemical contamination of food. This symposium will provide an overview of these issues, and include measures in place or being implemented to insure a safe food supply.

History of MDOT MTA and the Lots System
History of Transit Organization in the Baltimore Region Transit Agencies and Service Development in the Baltimore Region OVERVIEW The Baltimore Regional Transit Governance and Funding Study will develop alternatives for how the region could structure, organize, and fund regional transit services. The approach to developing these alternatives includes working with the Baltimore Regional Transit Board (BRTB) through an iterative process of research, analysis, and stakeholder input to ensure that the alternatives are grounded in experience, respectful of history and constraints, but creative enough to recognize opportunities. This technical memo, the first in the series, focuses on the history and development of transit services in the Baltimore Region. The first step involves focusing on the history and development of transit Image from Creative Commons: ETLamborghini services in the Baltimore region to understand how the existing service network came to be and provides the context for why some regional services are operated by the Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) and others by Locally Operated Transit Systems (LOTS). Our goal is that by understanding the historical perspective, we will understand the transit network, its origins and evolution and its current form. The overview and historical perspective include the development and evolution of: • State leadership for local transit services in the City of Baltimore. • State leadership for regional transit services, including the MARC commuter rail system and the Commuter Bus program. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. | KFH Group | KPMG | Tamar Henkin 1 History of Transit Organization in the Baltimore Region • County leadership for local services in the counties surrounding Baltimore through the Locally Operated Transit System (LOTS) program.

Based on feedback at the meetings, through web response, and through county staff, the following changes were recommended in the proposed alternatives. Howard County Route 401 - No change from proposed alternative Route 402 - No change from proposed alternative Route 403 - No change from proposed alternative Route 404 - No change from proposed alternative Route 405 - No change from proposed alternative Route 406 - No change from proposed alternative Route 407 - No change from proposed alternative Route 408 - No change from proposed alternative Route 409 A & B - No change from proposed alternative Route 410 - No change from proposed alternative Route 411 - Recommended change in wording to reflect ongoing development rather than completion of development Route 412 - No change from proposed alternative Route 413 - Revise route name to include “Turf Valley-Waverly Woods” Route 414 - Revise route name to include “via Applied Physics Laboratory (APL)-Maple Lawn”.
