Description:

From the Sub-Series:

Files in this series were generated from 1981 through 1994. Materials include memos, notes, correspondence, reports, testimonies from hearings, speeches, and press clippings. Files in this series contain information that is related to material in other series: Labor; Aviation; Railroads; Highways; Judiciary and Communications; and Maine Defense Bases and Industries.

This series consists of four groups. The first group contains mixed files that cover communications, particularly deregulation of the telephone industry and the Federal Communication Commission; defense issues, particularly GWEN (Ground Wave Emergency Network) towers; product liability; daylight savings time; drunk driving and advertisements for alcohol; labor; aviation; railroads; and a lawsuit concerning a power plant in Fort Fairfield, Maine. Most of this material was created from 1983 through 1987. These materials were maintained and created by Robert Carolla; some material was created by William Anderson and Christine Williams.

The second group contains files on science and technology, particularly NASA, the Maine Science and Technology Commission, and the Technology Reinvestment Projects. Some of these files focus on research projects in Maine. Most were created from 1991 through 1994. Sandy Brown created and maintained most of the files in this group; Patrick Maxcy created some of these files. Other files in this group were maintained by Jeff Sanders but created by Chris Mann.

The third group contains mixed files on communications, notably television broadcasting and telephone services; product liability; transportation, including mass transit, aviation, railroads, and highway regulations--especially drunk driving; and Federal Trade Commission regulations. Most of these files were created from 1981 through 1985. Christine Williams created and maintained these files together with William Anderson and Stephen Hart.

The final group contains mixed files that were maintained by Peggy Dorthy and Trey Kelleter.
