Saunders Tim Czerwienski, Project Manager Tim Ian Mitchell Boston Planning & Development Agency Co-Chairs One City Hall Square Janine Commerford Boston, MA 02201-1007 Greg Galer John Hemenway Subject: One Kenmore Square Hotel Draft Project Impact Report (DPIR) Peter Shilland Amelia Croteau Comments Kaira Fox Aaron Michlewitz Dear Mr. Czerwienski: Angie Liou Ed Flynn Christopher Cook Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the One Kenmore Square Hotel Draft Project Impact Report (DPIR) located in the Fenway. The Executive Director Boston Groundwater Trust was established by the Boston City Council Christian Simonelli to monitor groundwater levels in sections of Boston where the integrity of building foundations is threatened by low groundwater levels and to make recommendations for solving the problem. Therefore, my comments are limited to groundwater related issues. Although the Project is not located in the Groundwater Conservation Overlay District (GCOD) established under Article 32 of the Zoning Code, the document states that the Project will comply with the standard to the maximum extent practicable. Compliance with the GCOD requires both the installation of a recharge system and a demonstration that the project cannot cause a reduction in groundwater levels on site or on adjoining lots. As stated in the document the Project Area is not located within the GCOD however, it is immediately adjacent to the GCOD boundary. There are a number of piling supported buildings in the immediate vicinity of this boundary.

An Introduction to Applied Linguistics An Introduction to From Practice to Theory Second Edition Applied Linguistics ALAN DAVIES Second Edition This Second Edition of the foundational textbook An Introduction to Applied Linguistics provides a state-of-the-art account of contemporary applied linguistics. The kinds of language problems of interest to applied linguists are discussed and a distinction drawn between the different research approach taken by theoretical linguists and by applied linguists to what seem to be the same problems. Professor Davies describes a variety of projects which illustrate the interests of the field and highlight the marriage it offers between practical experience and theoretical understanding. The increasing emphasis of applied linguistics on ethicality is linked to the growth of professionalism and to the concern for accountability, manifested in the widening emphasis on critical stances. This, Davies argues, is at its most acute in the tension From Practice to Theory between giving advice as the outcome of research and taking political action in order to change a situation which,
