Book New Bedford Wholesale Food Distribution Facilities  Classic Reprint

Download or read book New Bedford Wholesale Food Distribution Facilities Classic Reprint written by Earl Gilbert Taylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Bedford Wholesale Food-Distribution Facilities In 1961, thirty wholesale food handlers received a total of tons of food. Of this volume, 70 percent arrived by truck. Supplies arrived from all parts of the United States as well as from many foreign countries, primar ily Portugal. One-quarter of the grocery volume, one-half of the meat and poultry volume, and three-quarters of the fresh fruit and vegetable volume were distributed within the city of new Bedford. In plans developed for new facilities, the fresh fruit and vegetable deal ers and the meat and poultry dealers are placed in a single building divided into 27 units. The fruit and vegetable dealers would occupy 8 units, each 25 feet wide, 36 feet deep, and 20 feet high with a 14-foot covered front plat form. Six units similar to the fresh fruit and vegetable units are provided for the poultry and small meat wholesaling firms. Thirteen larger units in this building are recommended for meat wholesalers and processors. These units are 25 by 100 feet, with 14-foot front and rear platforms, and are two stories high. Another modified multiple-occupancy building containing 20 units would house the smaller grocery firms. Three single-occupancy buildings containing square feet, square feet, and square feet are suggested for the larger general-line grocery firms. Three sites were considered in the north end of the city: Nash Road, Tarkiln Hill Road, and the south end of the industrial park. The total cost of land and facilities is estimated at about million dollars. If private financing were used to develop these facilities it is estimated that the annual rentals needed to make the project fully self-supporting would be It might be possible with city assistance to reduce the cost of amortization and other Operating costs which affect rents. For most firms, regardless of the method of financing, this would represent a considerable increase in rental charges over those being paid for their present inadequate facilities. This increased rental cost would be partially offset by reduced handling, interdealer handling, Spoilage, deterioration, breakage, and shrinkage costs. Still the total cost would be somewhat higher than that now incurred, because it is impossible to provide adequate facilities at the same low cost of those now in use. The plan developed is aimed at providing new facilities at the lowest possible cost for dealers who must relocate.

Book Food Distribution Facilities for Wilkes Barre and Scranton  Pennsylvania  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Food Distribution Facilities for Wilkes Barre and Scranton Pennsylvania Classic Reprint written by Richard K. Overheim and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Distribution Facilities for Wilkes-Barre and Scranton, Pennsylvania In 1969, 83 independent wholesale food firms and seven food-chain warehouses in the area received nearly tons of food. Of this, about 58 percent arrived by truck and 42 percent by rail road. About 32 percent of the tonnage was dis tributed within the metropolitan areas of Wilkes Barre and Scranton, 25 percent in other parts of Pennsylvania, and the remaining 43 percent outside the State. Approximately 12 percent of this food originated in Pennsylvania. Meat and meat products constituted the greatest tonnage from within-the State and fresh fruits and vegetables the second largest. The 52 independent food wholesalers needing new facilities handled about tons of food in 1969. Some of the cost of moving this tonnage through their facilities was excessive because of the type or location of wholesalers' facilities. Many of the buildings were not designed for food handling operations. Nor could they be adapted for use of modern materials-handling equipment. Many facilities did not have direct rail connec tions nor did they have docks at truck-bed height. Many firms operated in multistory facilities that required elevators to move food products. Some wholesale firms were located on narrow streets, adding to the cost of receiving and distributing food. These factors also affected the amount or spoilage that occurred.

Book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Book Middlesex

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jeffrey Eugenides
  • Publisher : Vintage Canada
  • Release : 2011-07-18
  • ISBN : 0307401944
  • Pages : 546 pages

Download or read book Middlesex written by Jeffrey Eugenides and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2011-07-18 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning eight decades and chronicling the wild ride of a Greek-American family through the vicissitudes of the twentieth century, Jeffrey Eugenides’ witty, exuberant novel on one level tells a traditional story about three generations of a fantastic, absurd, lovable immigrant family -- blessed and cursed with generous doses of tragedy and high comedy. But there’s a provocative twist. Cal, the narrator -- also Callie -- is a hermaphrodite. And the explanation for this takes us spooling back in time, through a breathtaking review of the twentieth century, to 1922, when the Turks sacked Smyrna and Callie’s grandparents fled for their lives. Back to a tiny village in Asia Minor where two lovers, and one rare genetic mutation, set our narrator’s life in motion. Middlesex is a grand, utterly original fable of crossed bloodlines, the intricacies of gender, and the deep, untidy promptings of desire. It’s a brilliant exploration of divided people, divided families, divided cities and nations -- the connected halves that make up ourselves and our world.
