BOSTON - The Boston School Committee recently approved a plan to create a program for overage students entering ninth grade in need of academic support in a setting outside of a traditional high school.
Boston Public Schools Superintendent Thomas W. Payzant proposed creating a ninth grade academy to the School Committee in November to serve overage 8th grade students who had not met the district's benchmarks necessary to be promoted to high school.
Because Boston Evening Academy is a Horace Mann Charter School (an in-district charter school similar to Boston's pilot schools), the proposal now needs to be approved by the Boston Teachers Union and the state Board of Education.

Our proposed project under the current Berger initiative is to continue this effort and bring it up to date with the technology available: GIS, digital data, 2D and 3D visualization.
Geologic mapping for Boston is currently very limited and as a result of the extensive urbanization difficult to accomplish without subsurface explorations; therefore, the compilation and visualization provided by this project will stimulate and lead to the production of needed geologic maps.
The first phase of our proposed project (summer and fall 2001) will be devoted primarily to developing this clearinghouse in the form of an interactive website, and developing content to be stored in the Tufts data repository.

 NBAA BAAAP > Logan International Airport (BOS) - Boston, MA
Consistent with concerns previously raised by the FAA in a letter to Massport, NBAA discussed the manner in which a determination of “over-scheduling” would be made, the alternative to a peak period fee and the potential for discrimination against the operators of smaller aircraft.
The proposed regulation would permit Massport to use computer modeling to predict future periods (known as “peak periods”) in which overscheduling will result in operational delays at Logan exceeding certain defined thresholds, and to impose a surcharge on takeoffs and landings at Logan during such “peak periods,” subject to certain exemptions.
NBAA will closely review and monitor the Massport proposal because of its significance to members operating to and from Boston Logan as well as its importance as a precedent.
