Tri-Met is building an extension of its MAX Light Rail System in Portland, Oregon. The extension includes a tunnel 4.8 km (3 mi) long with an underground station under the Washington Park Zoo. Washington Park station will be the deepest underground light rail station in North America when it opens for service in September 1998. A fire or other incident in the tunnel or platform area can have serious consequences for passengers waiting for trains on the platform and for those on the trains. Fire and life safety systems will play a significant role in ensuring the safety of all passengers. The systems are required to detect and control the incident, notify passengers when there is an incident in the tunnel or platform area, and provide safe egress of passengers. The fire and life safety systems that have been designed for Washington Park station and the decisions that became the basis for the design of the systems are discussed.

This study estimated the economic impact of the 2013 McGladrey Classic Golf Tournament (since renamed the RSM Classic) on Glynn County, Georgia. It was held at the Sea Island Golf Club, Seaside Course on Sea Island, Georgia in early November (7th through the 10th). This tournament is one of the stops for the PGA TOUR. The direct impacts were generated from spending from out-of-town visitors. These visitors included spectators, volunteers, title sponsor guests and the staff of the broadcast partner. In order to estimate the total amount of spending related to this event, the research team administered a survey to both volunteers online, prior to the event, and to spectators in person at the event. Additional expenditure data for the Golf Channel staff and McGladrey guests was provided by the Davis Love Foundation, host of this tournament.
