It is concluded that, the Blue Hills porphyry is geologically and mineralogically a single unit, dominantly granite porphyry, which grades into a porphyritic granite on one side. The Blue Hills porphyry becomes more aphanitic with fewer phenocrysts near the contact with the country. rocks. Textural variations correlate well with the topographic features: the higher the elevationthe more aphanitic the Blue. Hills porphyry becomes. The outcrop at the Route 128-28 intersection has traditionally been interpreted as a "fossil soil zone", but on the basis of detailed field and petrographical studies, it is reinterpreted as an extrusive facies of the Blue Hills porphyry.

  • Weight and Height Restrictions That Impact Truck Travel
    ON REG ST IO O N B BOSTON REGION METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION M Stephanie Pollack, MassDOT Secretary and CEO and MPO Chair E N T R O I Karl H. Quackenbush, Executive Director, MPO Staff O T P A O IZ LMPOI N TA A N G P OR LANNING TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM DATE: December 21, 2017 TO: Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization FROM: William S. Kuttner RE: Weight and Height Restrictions that Impact Truck Travel 1 INTRODUCTION This memorandum presents information about bridges in the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) area that have signs restricting the weight or height of vehicles permitted to pass over or under them. MassDOT personnel monitor these weight and height restrictions, along with a bridge’s physical condition, or rating, and summarize them as inspection reports in MassDOT’s internal database. However, the physical condition or rating of bridges is not the direct concern of this study. The concern of this study is that truck restrictions cause trucks that are otherwise fully compliant with Massachusetts and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) size guidelines to use more circuitous routes than necessary to reach their various commercial destinations. Forced circuitous truck travel increases expenses for freight carriers and customers, increases the total environmental impact for a given level of freight traffic, and increases the negative impacts on local residents and communities. This study characterizes the severity of height and weight restrictions on trucks in the MPO region. The information developed will be used to evaluate projects considered for inclusion in two MPO planning documents: the Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).

Achieving this mile- stone has required a Herculean effort by many states, agencies, companies and individuals. Indeed, between 1992 and 1999, the railroad between New Haven and Boston was transformed from a sleepy, 1940s era line to the INTRODUCTION premier rail line in North America, capable of train speeds up to 150 mph. This has required some $1.7 billion in new rails and ties, signal system upgrades, In the year 2000, the National Railroad Passenger Corporation, Amtrak, ushered bridge replacements, capacity and station improvements, curve realignments, in a new era of railroading in America with the initiation of Acela high-speed and at-grade crossing upgrades.

(R&M) (Sunoco), EnviroTrac Ltd (EnviroTrac) is submitting the attached Remediation General Permit (RGP) – Notice of Intent (NOI) for the above-referenced location, referred to as the Site. The RGP-NOI form is included as Appendix A. The Site is a Sunoco-branded retail petroleum station. Temporary construction dewatering will be required to facilitate the installation of a 16,000-gallon double-walled fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) underground storage tank (UST). Based on gauging of a monitoring well at the Site, the depth to groundwater is approximately 13 feet below ground surface (bgs). Excavation to approximately 16 to 17 feet bgs will be required for the UST installation. The location of the Site is depicted on the Site Locus Map (Figure 1). Also attached is a Discharge Location Plan (Figure 2), which depicts existing Site features, the wetlands representing the proposed discharge point, and the location of the discharge receiving water in relation to the Site. During construction dewatering, groundwater will be pumped from the excavation into a fractionation tank for settlement and then treated through a bag filter and two 10,000-pound liquid phase carbon units arranged in series, followed by cartridge filters as a final unit process to remove suspended sediments. A schematic of the proposed treatment system is included as Figure 3.

In due course, the MEPA Unit published a notice of availability of the FEIR in the Environmental Monitor. Subsequent to the release of the FEIR, the MEPA Unit staff suggested that FRA make certain additional background materials available for public review. Enclosed is a supplement to the FEIR that contains the background material identified by the MEPA Unit staff. FRA requests that you arrange for printing a notice of availability of the FEIR and this supplement in the next publication of the State's Environmental Monitor. FRA is providing this information solely because the MEPA Unit staff believes that it would facilitate a more infonned review of the FEIR on Amtrak's proposed electrification project. This action in no way reflects any reservations or concerns on the part of FRA regarding the quality and completeness of the FErR. FRA appreciates the support that we have received from the MEPA Unit staff in facilitating the review of the FEIR. Should your continuing review of the FEIR identify any issues that require further elaboration, FRA will provide such elaboration in a timely manner.

    DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY PLANNING AND BUILDING INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Board of County Commissioners VIA: Terry L. Shannon, County Administrator .14 FROM: Thomas Barnett, AICP, Director, Community Planning and Building 13 FROM: Rai Sharma., Director, Public Works t DATE: October 13, 2015 SUBJECT: MDOT Consolidated Transportation Plan Tour 2015 — Tuesday, October 20, 2015 Background: Every Fall, the Secretary of the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT), and the heads of the Maryland Department of Transportation's Business Units (Highways [SHA], Transit [MTA], Motor Vehicle [MVA], Port of Baltimore [MAA], Toll Facilities [MDTA]) meet with each of Maryland's 23 counties and the city of Baltimore to present a message from the Secretary and the highlights from the current draft Consolidated Transportation Plan (CTP) to local elected officials and citizens for comment and questions. Discussion: This year, the new Secretary, Secretary Pete Rahn, appointed by Governor Larry Hogan, has changed the format somewhat, in that he will not present dollar amounts awarded to the Counties during his presentation. (A $1.97 billion transportation funding announcement on June 25, 2015 included $845 Million in new major highway construction projects. One of the 13 new projects announced for funding was $23 million for widening MD 2/4 (Solomon's Island Road) to provide a third through lane and auxiliary lane in each direction through Prince Frederick from just south of Commerce Lane to just north of Fox Run Boulevard. There are engineering funds for the Thomas Johnson Bridge, but this phase is still not fully funded. $500,000 was spent on a study of MD 261 from 9th street in the Town of North Beach to the Anne Arundel County Line; alternatives are still being studied.
