The Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan (STIP) is a four year, federally required, transportation capital improvement program. Federal regulations require each state to produce a STIP that identifies federal funding by year for scheduled transportation projects receiving Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) or Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funding. MaineDOT produces a STIP every two years to meet the following requirements: • The State of Maine must show fiscal constraint by not scheduling more transportation projects for construction, per year, than it can reasonably expect to receive in funding. • To certify that the State’s transportation program conforms to Federal air quality regulations. • To provide all interested parties a reasonable opportunity to comment on the proposed STIP. MaineDOT also produces a State-initiated biennial Capital Work Plan that lists all potential projects during an upcoming two-year period. The majority of the projects listed in the Capital Work Plan are funded by FHWA and FTA. The STIP is a fiscally constrained document that is formally submitted to the federal agencies, and lists the FHWA and FTA projects that are to be funded over the next four years. The STIP is a federally mandated document that must be approved by federal agencies in order for Maine to receive FHWA and FTA funding. Federal regulations related to the STIP apply equally to all 50 states. They do not take into account individual states’ sizes, legislative processes or budget cycles. Maine has a biennial state budget cycle, and most of Maine's transportation projects are completed within two construction seasons. However, federal agencies require a STIP that covers a four-year federal funding cycle. To meet this requirement, this STIP provides a potential funding scenario for federal fiscal years 2014 and 2015, and potential investments for this time period, based primarily on historical funding in recent years. Please note that the additional two years of potential project information is provided in an effort to meet the federal requirement, and does not represent any policy commitment by MaineDOT. In early calendar year 2013, MaineDOT will submit specific projects to the Maine legislature concurrent with the State 2014-2015 budget cycle. These projects will be enumerated in the state fiscal year 2014-2015 Capital Work Plan, and will supersede the investments listed in this document. i I. Introduction The Maine Department of Transportation (MaineDOT) Bureau of Transportation Systems Planning (BTSP) coordinated the development and preparation of this document with support from other bureaus and offices throughout MaineDOT. The Maine Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) is prepared every two years as directed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The document presented here begins on October 01, 2011, and spans Federal Fiscal Years 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. The STIP is a multimodal document that includes investments in facilities for various modes of transportation, such as; pedestrian, bicycles, highways and transit services. The STIP is the means for implementing the goals and objectives identified in the Department’s Long Range Plan. MaineDOT develops the STIP in cooperation with the four Maine Metropolitan Planning Organizations, Maine municipalities and in consultation with 11 Regional Councils. This STIP has been developed based on the Clean Air Amendments of 1990 and all regulations issued pursuant thereto, and the terms and provisions in the Safe Accountable Flexible Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). SAFETEA-LU expired at the end of Federal Fiscal Year 2009, and Maine has received surface transportation funding through a series of continuing resolutions. In the event that a future funding act is significantly different than SAFETEA-LU, or significant changes are made to SAFETEA-LU, MaineDOT may need to revise the STIP. Section I includes projects anticipated to be funded with FHWA resources. Section II contains projects proposed for funding with FTA resources, and the anticipated funding transfers from the FHWA to FTA. Section III lists the Indian Reservation Roads Program and Eastern Federal Lands Division Program projects. Section IV contains other significant projects that are not currently proposed to be funded with resources from FHWA or FTA. These projects are included to satisfy the public participation requirements should MaineDOT wish to use federal resources for them at some point in the future. Section V contains the appendices for the STIP document. Additional copies of the STIP may be obtained by contacting David Oakes in the Bureau of Transportation Systems Planning at (207) 624-3300 or by email at [email protected]. The STIP can be found online at www.maine.gov/mdot. 1 II. STIP, Public Involvement and the MaineDOT Capital Work Plan The STIP document is published as a stand-alone federal document. All projects listed in the STIP have been through a significant public involvement process, and are closely linked to the preparation of MaineDOT’s biennial Capital Work Plan. In support of MaineDOT’s biennial budget request, prior to preparing a STIP, MaineDOT submits the Capital Work Plan to the Maine State Legislature. All projects that are included in the STIP have been represented in a MaineDOT Capital Work Plan and/or have received federal approval through inclusion in a prior STIP or as an amendment to a prior STIP. The 2012-2013 Capital Work Plan contains; the process for the selection of projects, a comprehensive description regarding MaineDOT’s public involvement process in transportation programming and a more detailed discussion of state and federal transportation funding than the STIP document. The 2012-2013 Capital Work Plan and the 2012-2015 STIP are companion publications, and parties that are interested in more detailed information regarding MaineDOT’s transportation programming should refer to the 2012-2013 Capital Work Plan document available at www.maine.gov/mdot. 2 III. STIP Finances There are three sources of funds for transportation programming, which are discussed in more detail in MaineDOT’s 2012-2013 Capital Work Plan available at www.maine.gov/mdot. The three sources of funding are: • Federal transportation funding • State transportation funding • Limited local or private funding Section 1 (FHWA) in the attached document provides the estimated utilization of federal funding, by fund source, for each one of the four years of the STIP/TIP. The chart below shows recent FHWA Obligation Authority received by Maine. The chart accounts for the fact that Maine currently has almost $95 million remaining in Federal Fiscal Year 2011 Obligation Authority. Therefore; fiscal constraint is demonstrated in Section l of this document for the FHWA program. In order to meet the obligations, as proposed in Section l, MaineDOT will be requesting transfers between apportioned highway programs, authorized under statues; 23 U.S.C. 104 (g), 126 (a) (b) and (c) and 144 (e). Historic FHWA Obligation Authority (not all HPP funds were obligated) 5 Year Average is $186M s $250 Million $200 $5 $6 $7 $6 $5 $3 $42 $49 $39 $150 $40 Transfers HPP $100 Core Obligations $178 $133 $140 $138 $139 $50 $0 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 If MaineDOT receives more resources than what is currently proposed in this STIP, MaineDOT will request STIP amendments to add new projects, or add new stages to current projects, in the STIP document. If MaineDOT receives fewer resources than proposed, MaineDOT will delay or cancel projects. State transportation funding is based upon approved non-federal capital transportation resources in MaineDOT’s 2012-2013 Capital Work Plan. MaineDOT has sufficient funds to match all anticipated resources from FHWA. 3 Section 2 (FTA) in the attached

  • Re-Membering Norridgewock Stories and Politics of a Place Multiple
    RE-MEMBERING NORRIDGEWOCK STORIES AND POLITICS OF A PLACE MULTIPLE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Ashley Elizabeth Smith December 2017 © 2017 Ashley Elizabeth Smith RE-MEMBERING NORRIDGEWOCK STORIES AND POLITICS OF A PLACE MULTIPLE Ashley Elizabeth Smith, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 This dissertation is an ethnography of place-making at Norridgewock, the site of a famous Wabanaki village in western Maine that was destroyed by a British militia in 1724. I examine how this site is variously enacted as a place of Wabanaki survivance and erasure and ask, how is it that a particular place with a particular history can be mobilized in different and even contradictory ways? I apply Annemarie Mol’s (2002) analytic concept of the body multiple to place to examine how utilize practices of storytelling, remembering, gathering, producing knowledge, and negotiating relationships to variously enact Norridgewock as a place multiple. I consider the multiple, overlapping, coexistent, and contradictory enactments of place and engagements with knowledge that shape place-worlds in settler colonial nation-states. Rather than taking these different enactments of place to be different perspectives on or versions of place, I examine how these enactments are embedded in and shaped by hierarchies of power and politics that produce enactments of place that are at times parallel and at times contradictory. Place-making is especially political in the context of settler colonialism, where indigenous places, histories, and peoples are erased in order to be replaced (Wolfe 2006; O’Brien 2010).

    HALLOWELL, MAINE: THE HISTORICAL LANDSCAPE OF A NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND VILLAGE A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Janet M. Pelletier June 2005 This thesis entitled HALLOWELL, MAINE: THE HISTORICAL LANDSCAPE OF A NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND VILLAGE BY JANET M. PELLETIER has been approved for the Department of Geography and the College of Arts and Sciences by Timothy G. Anderson Associate Professor of Geography Leslie A. Flemming Dean, College of Arts and Sciences PELLETIER, JANET M. M.A. June 2005. Historical Geography Hallowell, Maine: the historical landscape of a northern New England village (pp.118) Director of Thesis: Timothy G. Anderson This study aims to more fully understand early settlement and growth in northern New England through an analysis of the historical geography of Hallowell, Maine. Located at the head of navigation on the Kennebec River, Hallowell played a significant role in Maine’s development due especially to its location along the Kennebec River and its function as an important early trans-shipment node. Due in large part to its optimal location along a major waterway, Hallowell circumstantially benefited from early trade in the region. Hallowell’s rich history is punctuated by substantial early economic growth and success, followed later by setbacks leading to economic decline and a loss of regional economic significance. The first 200 years of Hallowell’s history has been rather well documented, but its later history has heretofore not been adequately studied. This thesis addresses how Hallowell was first settled and flourished, and what grew out of the decline in Hallowell’s initial prosperity.
