Without a first class system of interstate highways, life in America would be far different -- it would be more risky, less prosperous, & lacking in the efficiency & comfort that Americans now enjoy & take for granted. The Dwight D. Eisenhower System of Interstate & Defense Highways, in place & celebrating its 40th anniversary, must surely be the best investment a nation ever made. Consider this: it has saved the lives of at least 187,000 people; it has prevented injuries to nearly 12 million people; it has returned more that $6 in economic productivity for each $1 it cost, & much more.

Hearing on concerns arising from the interstate transportation of human pathogens. Very dangerous, deadly organisms which cause diseases and death in human beings are available for purchase across State lines not only by those with a legitimate use for them, but by anyone else. These organisms include the agents that cause the bubonic plague, anthrax, and other diseases. The Federal Government has less stringent regulations on their transport than on the transport of pathogens causing disease in plants and animals. Some of the biological agents may be usable as weapons of mass destruction by t

This study compares medical costs in Minnesota1s workers1 compensation system to workers1 compensation medical costs in other states. Medical coverage in the workers1 compensation system is virtually the same in all states. If we assume workers in each state had similar injuries, the amount and type of medical care should be approximately the same in each. Under these assumptions, observed differences in medical costs could occur for a number of reasons. Among them are interstate differences in average medical costs, worker demographics and workers1 compensation systems.

A research report to identify or develop a speed monitoring display suitable for use in interstate highway work zones, & evaluate the display's effectiveness in reducing speeds in interstate work zones. A review of the literature & current practice was conducted to identify product availability & other state transportation use. Speed monitoring display alternatives were identified & evaluated according to essential requirements & project evaluation criteria. A lidar laser radar device was tested with a changeable message sign. The speed monitoring display was effective in reducing speeds highe
