Chicago Executive Airport named Reliever Airport of the Year Chicago Executive Airport (CEA) received some well-earned recognition at the Illinois Aviation Conference held May 15 in Moline, Illinois. At the event, Dr. Susan Shea, the Director of Aeronautics for the Illinois Department of Transportation, named CEA the Reliever Airport of the Year. A reliever airport like Chicago Executive serves as a landing station for planes stuck in the air during certain emergency situations, such as inclement weather. “This award speaks to the efforts of the people here at CEA who work hard every day to make this the best and safest possible airport,” said Airport Manager Dennis Rouleau. “It also speaks to the commitment and cooperation of the folks in Prospect Heights and Wheeling. This is truly a community award.” The award was based on the airport staff’s cooperation with IDOT, adherence to federal guidelines, safety record, airport improvements, involvement with the aviation and local communities and overall maintenance performance. As Rouleau put it, the award is another indication that CEA is on the right track. Bill Kearns, Ray Lang, City Mayor Nicholas Helmer, Dr. Susan Shea, “This shows that, while we continue to serve the area’s aviation transportation Village President Dean Argiris, Dennis Rouleau, Betty Cloud and Neal Katz. needs, we’re also serving as an economic engine for the region,” said Rouleau.

  • Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) Contains Details to Implement the Requirements of Technical Specifications 6.7.6G and 6.7.6H
    PJVID Controlled Copy PROGRAM MANUAL Offsite Dose Calculation Manual SORC Review: 08-040 Date: 7/17/08 Effective Date: 7-18-08 FRINFOPMATION OMNY ODCM Manual Owner: Rev. 32 D. A. Robinson ABSTRACT The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) contains details to implement the requirements of Technical Specifications 6.7.6g and 6.7.6h. The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) is divided into two parts: (1) the Radioactive Effluent Controls Program for both in-plant radiological effluent monitoring of liquids and gases, along with the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) (Part A); and (2) approved methods to determine effluent monitor setpoint values and estimates of doses and radionuclide concentrations occurring beyond the boundaries of Seabrook Station resulting from normal Station operation (Part B). The sampling and analysis requirements of the Radioactive Effluent Controls Program, specified in Part A, provide the inputs for the models of Part B in order to calculate offsite doses and radionuclide concentrations necessary to determine compliance with the dose and concentration requirements of the Station Technical Specification 6.7.6g. The REMP required by Technical Specification 6.7.6h, and as specified within this manual, provides the means to determine that measurable concentrations of radioactive materials released as a result of the operation of Seabrook Station are not significantly higher than expected. Revisions to the ODCM require an interdisciplinary review documented on the following page as well as a SORC review prior to implementing the change. An interdisciplinary review includes as a minimum the potential impact the change has on the respective departments' programs and procedures.

  • Chapter 8: Urban Design and Visual Resources
    East New York Rezoning Proposal Chapter 8: Urban Design and Visual Resources A. INTRODUCTION This chapter assesses the Proposed Actions’ potential effects on urban design and visual resources. As described in Chapter 1, “Project Description,” the East New York Rezoning proposal consists of a series of land use actions (collectively, the “Proposed Actions”) intended to facilitate the implementation of the objectives of the East New York Community Plan. The affected area comprises approximately 190 blocks of the East New York, Cypress Hills, and Ocean Hill neighborhoods in Brooklyn Community Districts (CDs) 5 and 16. The Proposed Actions seek to facilitate vibrant, inclusive residential neighborhoods with a wide variety of retail options, job opportunities, and attractive streets that are safe and inviting for residents, workers, and visitors. Increasing the permitted residential density is key to addressing the economic challenges to providing affordable housing. In areas where residential uses are currently permitted in the rezoning area, the existing zoning restricts new development to low densities, which prohibit the scalability and economic leverage that higher density development allows for in affordable housing construction. As described in Chapter 1, 81 sites have been identified as projected development sites and 105 as potential development sites in the reasonable worst‐case development scenario (RWCDS). Per the 2014 City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual, urban design is defined as the total of components—including streets, buildings, open spaces, wind, natural resources, and visual resources—that may affect a pedestrian’s experience of public space. A visual resource is defined as the connection from the public realm to significant natural or built features, including views of the waterfront, public parks, landmark structures or districts, otherwise distinct buildings or groups of buildings, or natural resources.
