Adjournment CEO REPORT Report of the Chief Executive Officer NOVEMBER, 2016 Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey One Port Center 2 Riverside Drive Camden, New Jersey 08101-1949 November 16, 2016 To the Commissioners: The following is a summary of recent DRPA activities. The appropriate reports are attached: Stewardship /Stewardship Administration Division Selects Recipients of its first “Golden Stewie” Award The Administration Division established a pilot employee recognition program called the “Golden Stewie” Award Program. The purpose of the program is to recognize employees in the Administration Division who demonstrate commitment to the Authority’s stewardship mission, vision and values and embody the attributes of a World-Class Steward. The pilot program will sunset in one (1) year and can be a model for an Authority- wide program that recognizes all World-Class Stewards. Any division staff member may nominate a division colleague on a nomination form. The nominator must provide detailed descriptions on how the nominee meets criteria in the following four (4) areas: (1) Attitude and Commitment; (2) Interpersonal Skills; (3) Work Performance; and (4) Personal Traits. The Golden Stewie Award Program was developed by DRPA Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Toni P. Brown, HRS Director Kelly Forbes, Ann DuVall, Project Analyst, Office of the CAO, Marianne Staszewski, Director of Risk Management and Safety, Maria Mondile, Manager Customer Service (now retired), and Karen Fanning, Insurance Administrator (recently separated from service). On behalf of Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Toni P. Brown, I am pleased to report that on Thursday, July 7, 2016, the Administration Division bestowed its first “Golden Stewie” award to two deserving recipients: Fritz Sims, Manager, Printing Services and Mike DiGiamberardino, Senior Reproduction Technician. I was pleased to be in attendance to congratulate both employees. Fritz and Mike were commended for “repeatedly impressing their internal customers, providing the Authority with remarkable products that we are able to share with immense pride.” The co- recipients were also complimented for providing “the highest possible internal customer service,” “delivering top quality products,” and doing so with “grace and humility,” taking great pride in their work”. The nomination form also mentioned that when they are called upon to handle a project on a tight deadline, they always “exude a calmness and composure that resonates,” reminding us that the job is in capable hands. Pictured left to right: Mike DiGiamberardino and Fritz Sims We congratulate Fritz and Mike on being selected the co-recipients of this very special award. They embody all of the attributes of a World-Class Steward. A grateful PATCO customer wrote in to commend Station Supervisor Lisa Stratton and the FREEDOM Card Service Center. “A shout out to the excellent, exceptional customer service at Woodcrest Station! My PATCO card wasn’t working. Your representative stopped me from buying a new card and tried my card at the gates – still didn’t work. She then walked me over to the FREEDOM Service Center, where that employee replaced it with a new card … stellar customer service.” John Martinsen DRPA Strategic Planning Update for November We recently initiated a new strategic planning process at DRPA & PATCO to help clarify our future direction, define priorities, and help build even greater capacity to carry out our mission and help us realize our vision to be highly regarded as a “World-Class Stewardship” organization. We are working to establish open dialogue, build community, and improve and enhance the services we deliver to our customers, our employees, and the community. During the initial phase of the process, the members of the Board of Commissioners and management participated in planning sessions to determine the key strategic objectives and goals for the next five years. As part of our commitment to ensure that the planning process reflects public participation and input, we conducted a series of public focus groups as well as an online public opinion survey designed to solicit input from customers, stakeholders and the general public. The input received from the planning sessions and public outreach will form the basis of the written strategic plan which will be completed early next year. Triennial Review Summary The Federal Transit Administration allots the Authority between $12 and $15 million dollars in grant funding per year. Every three years, the FTA reviews 15 applicable areas of our operations. Starting in December of 2015, staff collaborated on replies to 303 questions and assembled over 200 requested supporting documents. The reviewer was on site on August 9th and 10th to inspect files and discuss all of the submitted information in detail. I am happy to report that this Triennial Review contained only one deficiency. Staff gathered the necessary information and the final report issued on October 4th has listed this deficiency as closed. The successful review was a collaborative effort by a group of dedicated professionals. They are Amy Ash, Toni Brown; Michael Venuto; James White; John Rink; Raymond J.

Signature Date: 17/12/2020 ii iii ABSTRACT Since the development of the superhero genre in the late 1930s it has been a contentious area of cultural discourse, particularly concerning its depictions of gender politics. A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

  • Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules
    Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules July 2008 Dear DRPA and PATCO Customers: Thank you for your interest in the Delaware River Port Authority and Port Authority Transit Corporation. We appreciate the opportunity to present to you the proposed changes to the toll and fare structures. For the last several years, we have committed to cost-savings measures that have enabled us to operate without changes to our toll or fare structures. However, we now face a very challenging time as our future needs will require us to find additional revenue sources to fund our Capital Program which is critical to maintaining the safety, security and serviceability of our assets. We are confident that with the feedback received from you, our customers, we will be able to propose a plan to our Board of Commissioners that will enable us to face the challenges that lie ahead. We value your opinion and look forward to your comments and suggestions. Yours truly, John J. Matheussen Chief Executive Officer, Delaware River Port Authority President, Port Authority Transit Corporation The Delaware River Port Authority The Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey is a regional transportation agency. DRPA’s lines of business, collectively called “the Authority,” operate under the motto “We Keep the Region Moving.” DRPA traces its roots back to 1919 when leaders from the two states began planning for a bridge across the Delaware River. That bridge, now known as the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, was once the longest suspension bridge in the world. Today, more than 80 years after its opening, the Benjamin Franklin Bridge remains a key transportation artery and a regional landmark.

    ENDER'S GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third "I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get." "That's what you said about the brother." "The brother tested out impossible. For other reasons. Nothing to do with his ability." "Same with the sister. And there are doubts about him. He's too malleable. Too willing to submerge himself in someone else's will." "Not if the other person is his enemy." "So what do we do? Surround him with enemies all the time?" "If we have to." "I thought you said you liked this kid." "If the buggers get him, they'll make me look like his favorite uncle." "All right. We're saving the world, after all. Take him." *** The monitor lady smiled very nicely and tousled his hair and said, "Andrew, I suppose by now you're just absolutely sick of having that horrid monitor. Well, I have good news for you. That monitor is going to come out today. We're going to just take it right out, and it won't hurt a bit." Ender nodded. It was a lie, of course, that it wouldn't hurt a bit. But since adults always said it when it was going to hurt, he could count on that statement as an accurate prediction of the future. Sometimes lies were more dependable than the truth. "So if you'll just come over here, Andrew, just sit right up here on the examining table.

  • East Coast Greenway Guide
    Welcome to the East Coast Greenway! The East Coast Greenway is a trail network linking scores of local greenways into a unified, 3000-mile route from Canada to Key West. It spans 15 states and the District of Columbia and connects communities between Maine and Florida. The East Coast Greenway aims to accommodate walkers, cyclists, skaters, skiers, wheelchair users, and equestrians. This urban version of the legendary Appalachian Trail will provide safe, traffic-free transportation, recreation, exercise and tourism opportunities to the 45 million Americans who live near it as well as domestic and international visitors to the region. Over 29% of the route (as of summer 2013) is off-road in the form of over 175 individual trail segments and more segments are coming on-line each year. The remainder of the route is currently on carefully selected, safer roadways. Our ultimate goal is for the East Coast Greenway to be completely off-road so it is safe and accessible for people of all ages and abilities to use. East Coast Greenway progress fosters low-cost transport, healthy lifestyles, and a thriving natural environment. The East Coast Greenway Alliance ® (ECGA), based in Durham, North Carolina, spearheads the project in partnership with organizations and agencies at the local, state and national levels. Together, we are creating an American treasure!
