  • Law Enforcement Programs Study United States Park Rangers
    National Park Service Law Enforcement Programs Study United States Park Rangers Report to Congress pursuant to P.L. 105-391 National Parks Omnibus Management Act, 1998 Vision Statement National parks were established as bastions to preserve representative examples of America’s most significant natural and cultural treasures. Sanctuaries that not only rekindle the human spirit through recreation and reflective introspection, but also as the contemporary, living link with our cultural history. They are the open books in the undisturbed library of our geological and paleontological history. They protect and allow interpretation of the archaeological clues that help us understand our prehistoric heritage. Parks are ecological safe havens, providing the guarantee of species diversity and genetic viability. These places of refuge are essential to perpetuating America’s flora and fauna for their own right, for our enjoyment, for scientific study and as wellsprings of continuous repopulation for surrounding areas beyond park boundaries. This report responds to the evident and sincere interest Americans have in their system of national parks. Its purpose is to communicate the law enforcement needs of the workforce charged with preserving these special places––to clearly communicate with Congress, ideas toward stronger protection of National Park System resources and the lives and personal property of visitors who will enjoy national park areas in perpetuity. i Introduction Purpose This report provides communication between the Department of the

  • Transportation Trips, Excursions, Special Journeys, Outings, Tours, and Milestones In, To, from Or Through New Jersey
    TRANSPORTATION TRIPS, EXCURSIONS, SPECIAL JOURNEYS, OUTINGS, TOURS, AND MILESTONES IN, TO, FROM OR THROUGH NEW JERSEY Bill McKelvey, Editor, Updated to Mon., Mar. 8, 2021 INTRODUCTION This is a reference work which we hope will be useful to historians and researchers. For those researchers wanting to do a deeper dive into the history of a particular event or series of events, copious resources are given for most of the fantrips, excursions, special moves, etc. in this compilation. You may find it much easier to search for the RR, event, city, etc. you are interested in than to read the entire document. We also think it will provide interesting, educational, and sometimes entertaining reading. Perhaps it will give ideas to future fantrip or excursion leaders for trips which may still be possible. In any such work like this there is always the question of what to include or exclude or where to draw the line. Our first thought was to limit this work to railfan excursions, but that soon got broadened to include rail specials for the general public and officials, special moves, trolley trips, bus outings, waterway and canal journeys, etc. The focus has been on such trips which operated within NJ; from NJ; into NJ from other states; or, passed through NJ. We have excluded regularly scheduled tourist type rides, automobile journeys, air trips, amusement park rides, etc. NOTE: Since many of the following items were taken from promotional literature we can not guarantee that each and every trip was actually operated. Early on the railways explored and promoted special journeys for the public as a way to improve their bottom line.

  • The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed
    Restoring a River to Reclaim a City?: The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed By Esther Grace Kim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Jeff Romm, Chair Professor Nancy Peluso Professor Richard Walker Fall 2017 Restoring a River to Reclaim a City?: The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed Copyright © 2017 by Esther Grace Kim Abstract Restoring a River to Reclaim a City?: The Politics of Urban Sustainability and Environmental Justice in the Los Angeles River Watershed by Esther Grace Kim Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management University of California, Berkeley Professor Jeff Romm, Chair This dissertation examines the intersection of urban sustainability and environmental justice (EJ) in Los Angeles, California. ‘Urban sustainability’, the idea that incorporating sustainable measures into urban development plans/strategies can ameliorate ecological degradation and social inequality without compromising economic growth, has recently emerged as a powerful discourse with regards to city planning and environmental governance. In this dissertation, I critically interrogate urban sustainability’s claims, questioning how equitable socio-spatial configurations can be created through modes of urban governance, which despite its optimistic rhetoric, are still driven by the logic of capitalist economic development and overseen by the racial state. To investigate the ways in which environmental justice, then, is facilitated and/or constrained under the programmatic realization of urban sustainability, I focus on one particular sustainability project in Los Angeles—the restoration/revitalization of the Los Angeles River Watershed.

  • The Californian
    The Californian The Revenue Marine Service The war for American independence from Great Britain began the morning of April 19, 1775 at Lexington, Massachusetts with the “shot heard ‘round the world” and ended on January 14, 1784 when the Treaty of Paris was ratified by Congress. The new American nation operated under the Articles of Confederation drafted by the Continental Congress in 1777. These articles reflected the wariness by the states of a strong central government and established a "firm league of friendship" between and among the 13 states. Under the Articles each of the states retained their "sovereignty, freedom and independence.” It was not until 1789 that America truly became the United States of America when the new nation’s first Congress convened in New York under the recently ratified Constitution. After the Revolution, the United States was deep in debt, and its emerging industries were under tremendous pressure from British imports. The American merchant marine, a mainstay of the colonial economy, had been weakened by losses in the war. To secure its political independence, the United States first had to secure its financial independence. One of the acts of the first Congress of the United States was to establish protective tariffs and taxes to generate revenues to repay the heavy debt of the Revolutionary War. Prior to the American Revolution, the colonists balked at what they felt were undue taxes imposed by Great Britain upon goods entering North America. One of the ways to escape this oppressive tariff was by smuggling. When the war was over however, many smugglers saw little difference between the tax imposed by King George and the Congress of the United States, so they continued their illegal trade.
