The goal of this thesis is to create a procedure to compile, compare, contrast and finally synthesize documents that support a priority list of recycled materials and applications for which material specifications can be harmonized among regional states in the US. This work compiled background research on selected materials and related regulations into standardized templates. The information analyzed was communicated with EPA, FHWA, and state representatives to approve a breakdown priority list and discussed through a working meeting to make an action plan toward regional harmonization. A life-cycle assessment was conducted in a representative state for the easiest recycled material to harmonize to determine the environmental benefits of use. A prioritization system was created to choose the first material/application specification to harmonize.

For most of its 226 or more years, Seabrook' s marine industry has been the lifeblood of our community. It is therefore only fitting that we should take the time to recognize the valuable contributions they have made to our town. Whether it be fishing, clamming, lobstering, shucking, selling or whatever, all are a part and parcel of our heritage and we salute those who participate in it. And, to those who have given their lives to the sea, a special tribute to them and their families.

He asked participants to introduce themselves (see attendance list). Historic Section 106 MOA Mr. Pavao reported that he had received the group’s comments on the draft MOA this morning. He asked Geordie Vining, Newburyport, to summarize the request. Mr. Vining said that the two pages of recommendations (distributed at meeting) are related primarily to archiving historic materials, the shared‐use path and dispute resolution. He went on to summarize the requests. Section I.C. and I.F. – The group requests that additional photographs of the Whittier Bridge be taken from upstream and downstream locations, including Moseley Woods, and taken from the bridge looking up and downstream. A reproducible CD of photo and print materials was requested by the communities, including the historical commissions. Section II – The group requests the addition of a sentence specifically stating that the replacement bridge will be a network tied arch style in honor of the design of the existing bridge. Section IV – The group requests the expansion of this section from Interpretive Signage to Historical/Interpretive Park, Interpretive Signage and Shared‐Use Path. The section includes more detail on a historic linear park and specific components such as viewing Whittier Bridge/I-95 Improvement Project Whittier Working Group October 5, 2010 Meeting Page 1 of 13 areas, themes and numbers of interpretive signs.
