Download or read book Transportation written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined: (1) the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) policies and procedures for initiating and conducting investigations into alleged defects in motor vehicles; (2) the NHTSA investigation of an alleged defect in vehicles produced by a certain manufacturer; and (3) the release to the news media by NHTSA of certain information pertaining to the investigation. GAO found that most defect investigations are initiated by NHTSA on the basis of consumer complaints that reflect, in the opinion of the NHTSA staff, the potential for substantial risk to the public. NHTSA conducts defect tests in conjunction with some investigations to identify the causes or consequences of defects. GAO noted that: (1) NHTSA ensures the safety of those conducting defect tests; (2) the procedures established by NHTSA for initiating investigations and conducting defect tests are reasonable; and (3) during fiscal years 1974 through 1983, domestic and foreign manufacturers recalled 57.7 million vehicles to correct safety-related defects. GAO also found that NHTSA followed its written guidelines in investigating whether a safety-related defect involving rear axle separation existed in cars produced by a certain manufacturer and is still in the process of rendering a final determination regarding the investigation. In addition, GAO found that NHTSA: (1) released to the news media film of a defect test that was conducted under that investigation without clarifying the conditions under which the test was conducted; and (2) did not notify the manufacturer of the allegedly defective vehicles before releasing the film.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) mission is to save lives, prevent injuries, and reduce the economic costs due to traffic crashes. As such, NHTSA is responsible for overseeing vehicle safety, a task made more challenging by the increasingly complex electronics and software used in today's vehicles. NHTSA's oversight faces greater scrutiny after a series of high-profile vehicle recalls that highlighted deficiencies with NHTSA's safety-defect investigation processes. This book addresses challenges identified for NHTSA's oversight of safety defects; NHTSA's implementation of a new IT system for safety-defect investigations; and how NHTSA is addressing new technologies in its oversight of vehicle safety, among other things.

Download or read book Physical Methods in Agriculture written by Jirí Blahovec and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The frrst attempts to use physical methods in agriculture can be found in nineteenth century as a necessary component of farm and food machinery. There were mechanics, electricity and physical chemistry that were the first physical disciplines used in agriculture and food industry. In the same time period the studies on physical properties of soils started to be one of main topics of soil science. The twentieth century was a century of research on physical properties of agromaterials. The physical properties of agromaterials have been studied e. g. in the USA, where a big role has been played by ASAE (1907), and in the Soviet Union where the special Institute of Agrophysics was founded (1932) by Academician Ioffe. The ASAE's activity was enlarged in 1960s and 1970s, especially with the role playing by the Mohsenin's group and its followers. At that time the Institute of Agrophysics of Polish Academy of Sciences was founded in Lublin and conferences on physical methods in agriculture began to be organised. The participants of the last conference - "Physical Methods in Agriculture - Approach to Precision and Quality", held on August 27-30, 2001, have prepared the basis for this book. Part of the conference participants decided to enlarge their conference papers to be more general and more instructive in relation to further development of the science. New papers prepared under this deciSion were reviewed, discussed and revised, repeatedly, to be presented in this book.
Download or read book Kumba Africa written by Sampson Ejike Odum and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘KUMBA AFRICA’, is a compilation of African Short Stories written as fiction by Sampson Ejike Odum, nostalgically taking our memory back several thousands of years ago in Africa, reminding us about our past heritage. It digs deep into the traditional life style of the Africans of old, their beliefs, their leadership, their courage, their culture, their wars, their defeat and their victories long before the emergence of the white man on the soil of Africa. As a talented writer of rich resource and superior creativity, armed with in-depth knowledge of different cultures and traditions in Africa, the Author throws light on the rich cultural heritage of the people of Africa when civilization was yet unknown to the people. The book reminds the readers that the Africans of old kept their pride and still enjoyed their own lives. They celebrated victories when wars were won, enjoyed their New yam festivals and villages engaged themselves in seasonal wrestling contest etc; Early morning during harmattan season, they gathered firewood and made fire inside their small huts to hit up their bodies from the chilling cold of the harmattan. That was the Africa of old we will always remember. In Africa today, the story have changed. The people now enjoy civilized cultures made possible by the influence of the white man through his scientific and technological process. Yet there are some uncivilized places in Africa whose people haven’t tested or felt the impact of civilization. These people still maintain their ancient traditions and culture. In everything, we believe that days when people paraded barefooted in Africa to the swarmp to tap palm wine and fetch firewood from there farms are almost fading away. The huts are now gradually been replaced with houses built of blocks and beautiful roofs. Thanks to modern civilization. Donkeys and camels are no longer used for carrying heavy loads for merchants. They are now been replaced by heavy trucks and lorries. African traditional methods of healing are now been substituted by hospitals. In all these, I will always love and remember Africa, the home of my birth and must respect her cultures and traditions as an AFRICAN AUTHOR.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an in-depth treatment of the basic principles that govern federal administrative action. The Third Edition retains the prior editions' strong doctrinal orientation, straightforward organization and presentation, historical depth, and emphasis on the detailed connections among the various doctrines that govern the federal administrative state. The organization has been revised to enhance the sense of connection among doctrinal categories: materials on scope of review now immediately follow materials on statutory and regulatory procedures in order to highlight the close relationship between procedural and substantive law. The materials have been updated and sharpened, but the well-received structure and focus of the book have not been substantially altered.
