SUMMARY:Gerard Fitzpatrick\, Modern Ferry Technology
DESCRIPTION:Gerry Fitzpatrick VP of Harley Shipbuilding Co.Harley has designed a high speed Surface Effect Ship that can operate at 1/3 of the horsepower of a similar sized\, conventional vessel\, and travel at least twice the speed. Moreover the vessel can maintain high speed in rough seas.The breakthrough is based on two design advances. First the design of the hull and secondly the high strength\, lightweight composite material it uses in the construction. An interesting meeting such as this generates a lot of questions. And there many. It was an extremely informative meeting.

SUMMARY:Mike LoGrande "The  Transformation of the Water Authority"
DESCRIPTION:This morning’s speaker\, Mike LoGrande\, gave an enlightening presentation on the “Transformation of the Suffolk County Water Authority.” Mr. LoGrande became chairman and CEO of SCWA in 1990. According to Mike the SCWA was a resting place for political leftovers. The organization was top-heavy\, inefficient\, and not at all attuned to the needs of the customers. \nLoGrande changed all that\, consolidated buildings\, selling under utilized properties and building a first class testing lab. The lab has been such a success the EPA uses the SCWA laboratory to set protocol standards for them.\nUnder LoGrande’s administration water quality has improved\, customer complaints have all but disappeared\, and the number of employees have been reduced by about 20%. At the same time the number of customers that are being served has been increased by about 40%. Part of the growth has been the result of absorbing many under performing water companies. Water companies that had decaying and contaminated infrastructure when SCWA took them over are now operating at the same standards as the rest of the system.\nMike LoGrande was Islip Town Supervisor for three terms\, County Executive\, and President of the Association for a Better Long Island for three years before coming to SCWA. It was a pleasure to have him.

SUMMARY:Steve Levy\, Suffolk County Executive
DESCRIPTION:Speaker; Steve Levy Suffolk County Executive\nThe county executive addressed LIMBA today and gave us an overview of his administrations stewardship. Mr. Levy mentioned many issues that he felt were in the interest of good government. \n Among those issues were the witholding of accumulated sick days that are cashed out by retiring civil servants. These payments amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars over a career and there is no logical reason why they should be paid. His position is that you came to work\, you were not sick\, you were paid\, why should we pay you again? A perfectly logical conclusion\, that oddly enough\, is being resisted by the county legislature.  \nOther topics were\, removing superfluous cars\, canceling bodyguard protection for the county executive\, and reducing department head salaries while at the same time tapping into the best candidates. \nMr. Levy discussed the protection of open land while at the same time identifying land that can be developed thereby fostering economic growth as well as environmental issues. \nHe described his job as a great challenge and balancing act. This is a role that he appears quite comfortable with.\nAfter Steve’s formal remarks there were many questions and he fielded them with the agility that we have come to expect from him. \n Among the questions was “How can he help LIMBA establish new ferry routes from Long Island?” His answer was “to coordinate all relevent departments and expidite permiting.” As usual\, we ran out of time before we ran out of questions\, so we went 10 minutes over the usual meeting time.

SUMMARY:Rod Zuch\, Exec Dir\, The Morgan Center
DESCRIPTION:This presentation was from Rod Zuch and Nancy Zuch\,Directors of The Morgan Center.The Morgan Center was borne out of an experience with a child with Leukemia.\nYoung children cannot be assimilated with other children when their imune systems are compromised by Chemo-theraby. Rod and Nancy wanted to provide a pre-school\nexperience for their stricken child Morgan. The Zuch’s became painfully aware that they would not be able to provide that experience that is essential to a child’s development under any program that existed at that time. \nRod and Nancy set out to create the program that is known as “The Morgan Center” and have created a resource that is available to other children at no cost the parents.\nToday’s presentation was a moving example of an initiative that was created out of a painful experience for this family. \nOne of The Morgan Centers benafactors\, Smith-Barney in Melville sponsored this mornings meeting. The Smith Barney manager\, Tom Brown\, introduced the speaker.

SUMMARY:James  Dermody\, Pres\, LIRR
DESCRIPTION:One of the questions that were posed to Mr. Dermody concerned the proposed rail yards that will be required to improve service to NYC. This proposal has generated some controversy with residents close to the proposed yards. Backround: Presently billions of dollars are being invested in creating an east side access to Manhattan by having LIRR trains come into Grand Central Terminal. This access will be using a new tunnel that was built years ago and never used. Now the connecting routes are being funded and the LIRR will have to make infrastructure investments in yard storage to take full advantage of this tunnel.Here is LIMBA’s position on the yards. These yards will facilitate service that will aid in improving the attractiveness of rail use with a corresponding reduction of passenger cars on the roads. These are electric train yards and air pollution is not an issue. On the other hand continued increases in the use of private cars does raise an air quality issue. Therefore the communities that are involved and the LIRR will have to find out what is necessary to install these yards without having a large negative impact on the surrounding community.There were\, of course\, many other questions including questions from the rail freight president Fred Krebs\, IBEW president Ralph Ranghelli\, LIMBA Transportation Committee John Howell\, Mark Serotoff and several others. Mr. Dermody fielded them all.
