Since Everett J. Prescott founded the company in 1955, we’ve continually made a splash introducing new products and services. Others may try to copy what we do, but so far none has succeeded in delivering the quality customers count on from Team EJP. Just last year, for example, we introduced a whole new program for specifying waterworks, Beyond SPECS. It goes beyond materials and dimensions to encompass the expertise, safety training, and 24/7 service you need today. 1-800-EJP-24HR • EJPRESCOTT.COM MAKING A SPLASH FOR 1955 - 2015 WATER, WASTEWATER & STORMWATER SOLUTIONS VOLUME 49 NUMBER 2 | ISSN 1077-3002 SuMMEr 2015 Contents EditorialS President’s message ..................................................................................................6 From the editor.............................................................................................................8 22 induStry nEwS ....................................................................................................16 FEaturES Alewife stormwater wetland—the “gem” of Cambridge’s stormwater management program ..................................... 22 by Catherine Woodbury, Owen O’Riordan, Kathy Watkins, David Bedoya, Emerson Olander, William Pisano, and Dennis Carr Provincetown stormwater program revitalizes downtown and improves water quality ......................................................... 30 by Sandra Tripp, Jessica Janney, Russell Kleekamp, Richard Waldo, and Robert Roseen Rethinking stream crossings for humans and animals— four examples from New England ....................................................................38 by Robert Sowby Tools to assist Cape Cod communities reach sustainable nitrogen reduction goals—technologies matrix and adaptive management practices ..........................................................................................44 by Thomas Parece, Mark Owen, Betsy Shreve-Gibb, Paul Niedzwiecki, Kristy Senatori, Erin Perry, and Scott Horsley tHiS iSSuE NEWEA goes to Washington ................................................................................54 STORMY awards....................................................................................................... 56 30 NEBRA highlights .....................................................................................................60 WEF delegate report ................................................................................................64 Student posters ........................................................................................................ 66 EvEntS Specialty conference proceedings ................................................................... 68 Upcoming meetings & events ............................................................................. 69 INSIDE nEwEa New members ............................................................................................................70 Executive committee ................................................................................................73 Membership information .........................................................................................75 On the cover: Of the more than 20 large-scale infrastructure projects completed since 1998 by the Cambridge, Mass.

  • Speaking from the Heart: Mediation and Sincerity in U.S. Political Speech
    Speaking from the Heart: Mediation and Sincerity in U.S. Political Speech David Supp-Montgomerie A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Communication Studies in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Christian Lundberg V. William Balthrop Carole Blair Lawrence Grossberg William Keith © 2013 David Supp-Montgomerie ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT David Supp-Montgomerie: Speaking from the Heart: Mediation and Sincerity in U.S. Political Speech (Under the direction of Christian Lundberg) This dissertation is a critique of the idea that the artifice of public speech is a problem to be solved. This idea is shown to entail the privilege attributed to purportedly direct or unmediated speech in U.S. public culture. I propose that we attend to the ēthos producing effects of rhetorical concealment by asserting that all public speech is constituted through rhetorical artifice. Wherever an alternative to rhetoric is offered, one finds a rhetoric of non-rhetoric at work. A primary strategy in such rhetoric is the performance of sincerity. In this dissertation, I analyze the function of sincerity in contexts of public deliberation. I seek to show how claims to sincerity are strategic, demonstrate how claims that a speaker employs artifice have been employed to imply a lack of sincerity, and disabuse communication, rhetoric, and deliberative theory of the notion that sincere expression occurs without technology. In Chapter Two I begin with the original problem of artifice for rhetoric in classical Athens in the writings of Plato and Isocrates.

  • Why Colorado Water Law Needs a Public Interest Standard
    13. 87.3 MYERS_FINAL (REVISED) (DO NOT DELETE) 4/20/2016 6:17 PM TO HAVE OUR WATER AND USE IT TOO: WHY COLORADO WATER LAW NEEDS A PUBLIC INTEREST STANDARD LARRY MYERS* This Comment proposes constitutional and statutory amendments that would allow water courts to consider the public interest in water allocations. It offers a model public interest standard and argues that this public interest standard is an economic necessity given the shifting contributions of water-reliant industries and the nature of their water needs. Assuming the purpose of Colorado water law is to promote growth and the economic health of the state, then Colorado must adjust the guiding laws to reflect the current economic reality. Where facilitating economic growth formerly required consumptive diversions from streams to subsidize homesteads, ranches, and mines, now it often means leaving the water in streams to maximize real estate values and the conditions desirable for the recreation and service economies. This Comment argues that Colorado will allocate its limited water resources more efficiently by implementing a public interest standard that allows water courts to consider local and state economic interests.
