Download or read book Deregulating the Public Service written by John J. DiIulio and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nation's federal, state, and local public service is in deep trouble. Not even the most talented, dedicated, well-compensated, well-trained, and well-led public servants can serve the public well if they must operate under perverse personnel and procurement regulations that punish innovation and promote inefficiency. Many attempts have been made to determine administrative problems in the public service and come up with viable solutions. Two of the most important—the 1990 report of the National Commission on the Public Service, led by former Federal Reserve chairman Paul A. Volcker, and the 1993 report of the National Commission on the State and Local Public Service, led by former Mississippi Governor William F. Winter—recommended "deregulating the public service." Deregulating the public service essentially means altering or abolishing personnel and procurement regulations that deplete government workers' creativity, reduce their productivity, and make a career in public service unattractive to many talented, energetic, and public-spirited citizens. But will it work? With the benefit of a historical perspective on the development of American public service from the days of the progressives to the present, the contributors to this book argue that deregulating the public service is a necessary but insufficient condition for much of the needed improvement in governmental administration. Avoiding simple solutions and quick fixes for long-standing ills, they recommend new and large-scale experiments with deregulating the public service at all levels of government. In addition to editor John DiIulio, the contributors are Paul A. Volcker, former chairman of the Federal Reserve, now at Princeton University; former Mississippi Governor William F. Winter; Gerald J. Garvey, Princeton; John P. Burke, University of Vermont; Melvin J. Dubnick, Rutgers; Constance Horner, former director of the Federal Office of Personnel Management, now at Brookings; Mark

Transportation Research Board and published by Transportation Research Board National Research. This book was released on 1984 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Transportation Research Board's Committee on Surface Properties-Vehicle Interaction recognized that no comprehensive effort had ever been made to compile and discuss the various kinds of discontinuities that occur in roadway surfaces and their influence on traffic safety. Consequently, a Task Group was appointed by the Committee to compile such a document. The objectives of the Task Group were to identify and discuss the safety implication of significant categories or surface discontinuities and document relevant literature for each category. The results of the Task Group's activity, contained in this report, will provide a useful resource for decision makers and others involved in providing and maintaining safe traveled surfaces.
