Ocn707397871-Mscoll149.Pdf (345.0Kb) State Library of Massachusetts - Special Collections Department Ms. Coll. 149 Carol A. Donovan Papers, 1978-2004: Guide COLLECTION SUMMARY Creator: Donovan, Carol A. Call Number: Ms. Coll. 149 Extent: 9 boxes (9 linear feet) Preferred Citation Style: Folder Title, Box Number #. Carol A. Donovan Papers. State Library of Massachusetts Special Collections. About This Finding Aid: Description based on DACS. Provenance: Gift of Carol Donovan, date unknown. Processed by: Finding aid prepared by Nick Foster, 2009; updated by Abigail Cramer, October, 2012. Abstract: This collection documents Donovan’s tenure as a Massachusetts Representative from the 30th and 33rd Middlesex Districts from 1990 to 2004. SCOPE AND CONTENT This collection includes material on a wide variety of topics, but there are three topics that are by far the most prominent. Foremost is an extensive compilation of papers regarding aversion therapy (unpleasant stimuli that induce changes in behavior through punishment, such as electric shocks, restraints, etc.), colloquially known as “aversives.” It is important to note that throughout this collection this term is misspelled as “adversives.” Also important is the fact that the vast majority of these materials date from before Donovan’s time in office and are labeled as having originally belonged to Rep. David B. Cohen of Newton. It is likely that Donovan, with her history in State Library of Massachusetts – Special Collections Department Guide to Ms. Coll. 149 - Carol A. Donovan Papers Page 1 of 22 special education, took a special interest in this topic and at some point was either given or inherited the papers from Cohen. Another prominent topic is Chapter 40B and numerous related issues. Chapter 40B is described on www.Mass.gov as “a state statute, which enables local Zoning Boards of Appeals to approve affordable housing developments under flexible rules if at least 20-25% of the units have long- term affordability restrictions.” The third major topic in the collection concerns public health issues in Donovan’s home city of Woburn. More specifically, these materials relate to occurrences of cancer and leukemia, hazardous materials, and landfills. Some of these materials are labeled as having originally belonged to Representative Nicholas Paleogos of Woburn. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Carol Donovan represented the 30th and 33rd Middlesex Districts in the Massachusetts House of Representatives for 14 years, from 1990 to 2004. During her time in office, she parlayed her previous career as a teacher into a record of public advocacy and service. One of her chief achievements, for example, was the passage of a bill that allowed mentally retarded victims of abuse to testify in court. Throughout her tenure, she experienced an ongoing rivalry with then- Speaker of the House Thomas Finneran. For example, Donovan was removed from her position as Vice-Chairwoman of the Post Audit and Oversight Committee at around the same time that Finneran became Speaker, and she and others believe the reason to be the fact the she voted for his rival. In 2004, Donovan chose not to run for re-election. Donovan was born in Lynn, Massachusetts on June 5, 1937. She received a Bachelor of Arts in Home Economics and Education and later a Master of Arts in Special Education from Regis University. With these credentials, she launched a 31-year teaching career in and around the city of Woburn, where she now makes her home. ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION Arrangement The collection remains in the original order in which it was received by the State Library. The materials are not arranged in any particular order, but within each folder and subsection the materials are generally in reverse-chronological order. There is no indication of who imposed the order on the collection before it arrived at the State Library, but it does not appear that there are any missing or incomplete series.

  • New Boston Street Economic Development Study Memorandum
    Memorandum To: City of Woburn From: MAPC On: 6/26/2018 Re: New Boston Street Economic Development Study Memorandum This memorandum outlines the existing conditions research and recommendations conducted for the New Boston Street commercial / industrial area of Woburn. The following mapping and analysis cover existing zoning, land use, building size and type, connectivity, property ownership, and relevant planning and development processes. Further, it includes high level findings from the New Boston Street business survey and business breakfast convened on February 9th 2018. Executive Summary The New Boston Street Industrial Park is a thriving business district supporting over 300 businesses and thousands of jobs. Its easy access to highways make it attractive for businesses serving a regional customer base and also provides an excellent employment base both from the Boston suburbs as well as smaller cities around the region. Reasonable rental rates, large building sizes, and available space all have contributed to the success of the business district. While the regional location of New Boston Street has been a boon for business attraction, local access to the area has been a challenge due to its somewhat isolated nature on the western side of the Lowell Line commuter rail tracks. The opening of the New Boston Street Bridge will likely alleviate some pressure on Mishawum Road and improve overall traffic circulation. The City should continue to explore the feasibility of additional transportation options to access this important employment center via a pedestrian sky bridge and possible alternative transportation models such as private shuttles (e.g., as part of a larger Transportation Management Association’s routes and/or from the Anderson/Woburn Regional Transit Center) or rerouted MBTA buses.

Orosz Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering ABSTRACT An analysis of total nitrogen speciation in the Aberjona River (ABJ) was conducted using time-composite sampling in a spatial distribution along the watershed for the purpose of establishing patterns of organic and inorganic nitrogen concentrations and fluxes. A Total Nitrogen analysis (NO3, NH 4 and organic N) was undertaken to determine the relevance of potentially labile organic nitrogen as a constituent of ABJ river water both in dissolved and particulate form, as well as to differentiate nitrogen species by source and provide the basis for an estimation of transformations and a correlation of fluxes to land use patterns.

  • Evaluation of Groundwater Flow and Contaminant Transport
    EVALUATION OF GROUNDWATER FLOW AND CONTAMINANT TRANSPORT AT THE WELLS G&H SUPERFUND SITE, WOBURN, MASSACHUSETTS, FROM 1960 TO 1986 AND ESTIMATION OF TCE AND PCE CONCENTRATIONS DELIVERED TO WOBURN RESIDENCES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree, Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Maura A. Metheny, B.S., M.S. The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee Professor E. Scott Bair, Advisor Assistant Professor Anne Carey Approved by Professor Carolyn Merry ______________________________ Professor Franklin Schwartz Advisor Department of Geological Sciences Copyright by Maura A. Metheny 2004 ABSTRACT Contamination of municipal wells G and H was discovered in 1979 and was statistically linked by epidemiological studies to leukemia cases that occurred in Woburn, Massachusetts in the late 1960’s through the early 1980’s. Historical contamination of the buried valley aquifer at the 133 hectare Wells G&H Superfund Site is simulated using MT3D-HMOC code to determine the possible contamination history of the wells with TCE and PCE. A MODFLOW groundwater flow model calibrated using measured heads, measured streamflow gains and losses, and tritium/helium-3 groundwater ages was used to compute flow velocities. The 26-year transient groundwater flow model incorporates realistic pumping schedules and variable recharge rates. Although the wells operated from 1964 to 1979, the transport model spans the period 1960 to 1985 so that the simulated concentrations can be compared to water quality measurements from 1979 through 1985. At least five local sources contributed TCE, PCE, and other contaminants to the groundwater system. The precise contaminant release times and source concentrations are not known for the sites.

  • The Legacy of Woburn, Massachusetts and Trichloroethylene Adell K. Heneghan University of Idaho Principles of Environmental Toxi
    The Legacy of Woburn, Massachusetts and Trichloroethylene Adell K. Heneghan University of Idaho Principles of Environmental Toxicology November 2000 Abstract Woburn, Massachusetts is an industrial, suburban city with a population of about 40,000. As populations grew in the city during the 1960’s, the municipal water supply was stretched beyond its capacity. Two new wells were drilled and developed for additional community water supply. Wells G and H were drilled along the Aberjona River in a historically industrial area. Almost immediately, residents began to complain about the water. Some began to suspect the water was responsible for the occurrence of childhood leukemia and the increase in birth defects. Ten years after their use began, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health determined these wells were contaminated and shut the wells down. One of the contaminants in the wells was trichloroethylene. Hundreds of thousands of tons of trichloroethylene are produced in the US every year. Trichloroethylene is found in over 60 percent of all Superfund Sites in the US. Studies have linked trichloroethylene with leukemia and birth defects; yet, today Trichloroethylene remains listed by EPA only as a possible human carcinogen. Introduction The City of Woburn is located 10 miles north of Boston along the upper Mystic Valley of east central Massachusetts. Despite the rolling hills, waterways, and trees, less than 2% of the city area is dedicated to recreation. Over16% of the land in the City is used for commercial or industrial production (Massachusetts Office of Environmental Affairs). Heavy industrial use is not new to the City or the area.
