Save the River Records (1978-Ongoing) MSS COLL Save The River Records (1978-ongoing) MSS COLL. No. 194 10.5 cubic ft. Historical note Save The River was founded in 1978 as a non-profit environmental organization in response to plans to allow winter navigation of the St. Lawrence River and Seaway. Coming just two years after a commercial shipping oil spill (Nepco) that released over 300,000 gallons of crude oil into the river, a group of over 500 concerned citizens led by activists Abbie Hoffman and Johanna Lawrenson formed the organization, defining its mission “to restore, preserve and protect the ecological integrity of the Upper St. Lawrence River through advocacy, education, and research.” –From: Save The River Strategic Plan, 2015-2018 Scope & Content This collection documents the activities of Save The River, from its founding in 1978 to present, although some of the earliest years have gaps. The original order of the records is uncertain, reflecting the early evolution of the organization.

  • Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy
    TOLL FACILITIES IN THE UNITED STATES Bridges - Roads - Tunnels - Ferries August 2009 Publication No: FHWA-PL-09-00021 Internet: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ohim/tollpage.htm Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy History The early settlers who came to America found a land of dense wilderness, interlaced with creeks, rivers, and streams. Within this wilderness was an extensive network of trails, many of which were created by the migration of the buffalo and used by the Native American Indians as hunting and trading routes. These primitive trails were at first crooked and narrow. Over time, the trails were widened, straightened and improved by settlers for use by horse and wagons. These became some of the first roads in the new land. After the American Revolution, the National Government began to realize the importance of westward expansion and trade in the development of the new Nation. As a result, an era of road building began. This period was marked by the development of turnpike companies, our earliest toll roads in the United States. In 1792, the first turnpike was chartered and became known as the Philadelphia and Lancaster Turnpike in Pennsylvania. It was the first road in America covered with a layer of crushed stone. The boom in turnpike construction began, resulting in the incorporation of more than 50 turnpike companies in Connecticut, 67 in New York, and others in Massachusetts and around the country. A notable turnpike, the Boston-Newburyport Turnpike, was 32 miles long and cost approximately $12,500 per mile to construct. As the Nation grew, so did the need for improved roads.
