    Delaware River Port Authorityof Pennsylvania and New JerseyOne Port Center2 Riverside DriveCamden, NJ 08101-1949

    March 19, 2014

    To the Commissioners:

    The following is a summary of recent DRPA activities. I have attached the appropriate

    reports.

    We are still considering concepts for a proposed bicycle and pedestrian ramp on the south side of

    the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. Our design consultant completed and submitted a technical

    investigation of several options for a single, straight ramp.

    For Bridge and Traffic Highlights, see Attachment 1

    Track rehabilitation work on the Benjamin Franklin Bridge has been delayed by snow and

    consequent adjustments to the construction schedule, but we expect work to resume apace as

    milder weather approaches.

    Report of the Acting Chief Executive Officer

    Bridge and Finance

    PATCO

  • Report of the Acting Chief Executive Officer, March 2014

    We are working to revise the construction schedule in a manner that would minimize PATCO

    passenger inconvenience while still allowing us to meet project timetables and obligations to

    contractors. We will update the board and the public when we complete final construction and

    train schedules.

    The “up” escalator at Woodcrest Station returned to service on March 4. Our contractors,

    principally SEPTA, are working to return all of PATCO’s elevators and escalators to sustained

    service.

    The Lindenwold Station escalator is scheduled to return to service by next month. The eastbound

    escalator at Woodcrest Station and the escalator at 12th/13th & Locust Street Station are

    scheduled for replacement by mid-summer.

    PATCO’s new 800MHz radio system is on-the-air. Minor modifications are being made to the

    system as needed, but it is operating.

    For PATCO Ridership and Financial Information,see the General Manager’s Report in the PATCO section

    For a list of Bridge and Finance actions, see Attachment 1For a list of Personnel Actions, see Attachment 2

    For a list of Contracts and Purchases, see Attachment 3For a list of Risk Management & Safety Actions, see Attachment 4

    For the Affirmative Action Report, see Attachment 5

    Respectfully Submitted,

    The Corporate Secretary announced that pursuant to the By-Laws of this Authority, public noticeof this meeting of the DRPA Board of Commissioners has been given by posting proper notice inthe lobby at One Port Center, and issuing proper notice to the public and news media.

    Chairman Simon called the meeting to order and asked that the Corporate Secretary call the roll.The Corporate Secretary announced that there was a quorum. Chairman Simon presided.

    Report of the Chairman of the BoardChairman Simon stated that the search for a permanent Chief Executive Officer has commenced.The search has begun under the auspices of the Labor Committee. Chairman Reilly is conductingthe process with the intent of doing everything possible to have a recommendation for candidate atthe March Board meeting. In connection with our Interim CEO, we entered into an extension forMr. Hanson to continue as Interim CEO until at least March 17, 2014. Chairman Simon thankedMr. Hanson for continuing on as the Interim CEO. He also thanked Mr. Hanson for taking hold ofthe major issues and challenges that confront the Authority. We have had a number of challengesover the past several weeks and months and Mr. Hanson, to his credit, has gotten involved witheach of those issues to assist in resolving them.

    Report of the Interim Chief Executive OfficerChairman Simon asked the CEO to give his report.

    Mr. Hanson said his report stands as submitted and he wanted to highlight several items. I ampleased to report that we have a retiree with us today, Anthony Jacoby. Tony has been with theDRPA for 27 years and is retiring from his position as a Police Sergeant at the Betsy RossBridge. We appreciate his commitment to our organization and his effort to safeguard andprotect the public and the bridges. We honor his accomplishments throughout his career andwish him well in his future endeavors.

    Mr. Hanson continued that the Commissioners have been provided with the ProgramPerformance Report for December 2013 for their review. Mr. Venuto can provide additionalinformation if required.

    Mr. Hanson stated that he has taken emergency action in concurrence with the Chair and theVice Chair to award the firm of Gannett Fleming, Inc. a $563,114.15 contract for design servicesfor PATCO’s circuit modification. This award will minimize cost and scheduling impacts to thePATCO car overhaul program. While this has gone through our normal procurement process,we could not delay implementation.

    Mr. Hanson continued that with the record amounts of snow and ice the region has endured overthe past several weeks, DRPA’s commitment to the stewardship of our bridges and PATCO linecontinues. Our crews have done an outstanding job working nearly around the clock clearing iceand snow and applying more than 100 tons of salt to all surfaces. He thanked COO Tim Pulte,Bridge Directors Dan Auletto and Val Bradford, and the crews on the bridges and at PATCO fortheir hard work and commitment for the safety of the public. Their winter storm action andexecution has kept accidents to a minimum and our bridges open. He also thanked the PoliceDepartment, led by Chief Stief, for their assistance during this challenging weather.

    Mr. Hanson stated that on January 18, 2014, PATCO revised its train schedule to accommodatethe two year, $102.8 million dollar Ben Franklin Bridge track rehabilitation project. The newschedule introduces 30 minute periodic gaps in the rush hour train service on Friday afternoons,Monday mornings and afternoons. Mr. Hanson discussed the significance of this Capital Projectand its impact on PATCO riders. He explained that the contractor is continuing to install thetemporary platforms under the tracks. Cable installation is underway and deck installation isexpected to start at the beginning of March. The contractor has completed removal of existingconduit and installation of new conduit under the interior grading walkway adjacent to track oneeast bound between the New Jersey tower and the New Jersey anchorage. Track number oneoutage has been in place from Friday at 10 a.m. to Monday 7 p.m. The schedule presentssignificant challenges for our passengers and operators. Mr. Hanson stated that one of the firstthings he did as Interim CEO was to schedule a meeting at PATCO the day after Martin LutherKing Day. It included a multi-functional team of DRPA and PATCO employees. ChristinaMaroney led an exercise about the project on the bridge highlighting the continuing demand forresources. As a result of this meeting, the group has met three times a week since. Manyemployees have been involved including Tim Ireland, Pat McBride, John Shea, Mike Venuto,Ann DuVall, Karen Dougherty, Kathy Imperatore, Heather Still and Bill Shaw. The meetingshave resulted in a number of improvements with the train operations and we have altered theschedule based on things that we have seen happening, as well as other ideas and innovations.Mr. Hanson continued that the equipment group has changed how we deploy personnel andequipment in strategic places during rush hour so that issues can be resolved quicker. The harshwinter has taken a toll on the traction motors and has added a dimension to this project that hasmade it very difficult on PATCO operations and more importantly, on our riders. We areworking on a number of issues and are trying to get as much feedback as possible from theriders. He has spoken to many of the people who have written or called with complaints. He hasbeen on the platform for three or more of the rush hours getting feedback. In our regularmeetings we continue to try to improve what we are doing. At this moment Mr. Venuto isworking with the contractor to see if we can delay the Friday afternoon work for a couple ofweeks. This will allow us to work on some of the operational issues, including the feedbackbetween PATCO operations and our customers so that we can improve communication. Mr.Conallen, Tim Ireland and he have visited Center Tower to see what opportunities are availableto improve communication. We are working hard to make this process better.

    Mr. Hanson next addressed the PATCO car rehabilitation. He stated that all eight (8) pilot carsare at the Lindenwold shop and are undergoing qualifications testing and final acceptance.Married pair number five (5) is currently going through functional testing in New York. Marriedpair six (6) is currently in production and is expected to be delivered in late March. Mr. Hansoncontinued that the bike ramp concept study is being finalized. The design consultant hascompleted their investigation of additional options and has submitted their recommendation.The findings are being reviewed by DRPA staff.

    Mr. Hanson next asked Mr. Pulte to provide an update on the Ferry operations. Mr. Pulte statedthat a pre-bid meeting was held yesterday for Ferry operations and three (3) different groupsattended. Bids are due by February 28, 2014, and we are looking to start operations betweenMay 1, 2014 and May 15, 2014. This will be a two-year management contract, with a monthlymanaging fee to the operator and we will collect all revenue from the Ferry. Passengers will stillbe able to purchase tickets online or in person. The times of operation are from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00p.m. The schedule will change around concerts and activities on the waterfront.

    Mr. Conallen provided an update on PATCO elevators and escalators. He stated that all of ourelevators are operational. SEPTA continues to help us with all the repairs and maintenance onour elevators. We are experiencing some very positive results. As for the escalators, SEPTAhas our 8th and Market north and south escalators back in service. They required significantrepairs and SEPTA did an excellent job in a timely manner. The other escalators are atWoodcrest Station. We are very pleased with the efforts to get these back up in service. The upescalator is currently under construction and will hopefully be completed by the end of themonth. The gear box has been removed and will be replaced this week. Once this escalatorcomes back online the only escalators that will be down will be 13th Street, which is to bedemolished, and the Woodcrest down escalator. The new escalator has been delivered per theschedule. By the end of the month, other than those that are scheduled for demolition, all of ourescalators will be up and running.

    Commissioner Sasso thanked Mr. Conallen for stepping up and taking on this challenge.

    Mr. Conallen responded that he cannot overstate how helpful SEPTA has been in helping us getthese escalators up and running. They have worked 24/7 to keep us on target.

    Mr. Rink stated that the KPI for the elevators for the month of January hit 98% availability. Ourtarget of 97% is exceeding our operational percentage. If you remove the two escalators that areunder construction and the three long term repairs, the nine escalators that were actually inservice were at 92.4%, with a target of 90%. As Mr. Conallen mentioned, SEPTA was able toget 8th and Market repaired and back in service. Another accomplishment by SEPTA is theyrepaired Ashland station and it is in service. By the end of the month twelve of the fourteenescalators will be in service and we will move forward with the two repairs.

    Chairman Simon inquired how is the Authority handling communication with the public aboutthe down escalators, elevators and delays in PATCO due to construction. Mr. Rink respondedthat the website is updated several times a day. Center Tower is constantly checking each facilityto keep track of issues. SEPTA is called immediately if repairs are needed. Chairman Simoninquired if we use text messaging. Mr. Rink responded we are currently looking at an upgrade tographic driven elevator/escalator information on our website. We have an email blast that goesout when there is information that needs to be shared. Riders can sign up on our website toreceive these emails. Commissioner Kichline inquired if there are signs up at different stationspointing the customer to that information. If you advertise where the commuters actually are theywill be more inclined to use it. Mr. Rink replied they will look into that option. Chairman Simoninquired whether the Franklin Square station is under consideration to be reopened. He notedrecent new development in the area of the station and that it was used for emergency exitpurposes during a recent service outage. Mr. Venuto replied that a feasibility study was doneabout five to six years ago to estimate the cost to open Franklin Square station. He did not knowthe results of the study off hand but indicated that he will pull the study and share it with theBoard. Mr. Hanson stated that the feasibility study will need to be updated and then consideredin the context of our Capital Plan. He recalled that it would be an expensive proposition. Mr.Rink added that there were also significant operating costs that would be required. ChairmanSimon responded that the study should be reviewed at the Finance committee and reevaluated.

    Chairman Simon advised that there were two (2) legal matters settled this month withrecommendation of the General Counsel and outside counsel approved by the Interim CEO,Chair and Vice Chair.

    This concluded his CEO Report.

    On motion duly made and seconded, the CEO’s Report was approved.

    Report of the Interim Chief Financial OfficerMr. White stated that KPI Dashboard covers the period of January 2013 to December 2013. Henoted that the DRPA books are not yet closed, in particular, actual operating expenses in relationto the 2013 budget. The DRPA bridge traffic was 0.50% under budget. The total traffic for lastyear was 47.9M vehicles versus 48.1M for the previous year. We have seen an upward trend in2013 (in the sense that the decrease in traffic for 2013 is less than the decrease experienced in2012). DRPA toll revenue is 1.1% above budget. Total revenues are $293.3M versus a budget of$290.5M. The reason for the $3.3M gap is due to the fact that the DRPA budgets for inclementweather. The impact of inclement weather on 2013 traffic and revenue, was relatively mild,which had a positive impact on actual revenues. Mr. White continued that the actual toll revenueof $1.1M was over the amount of toll revenue collected in 2012. The DRPA operating budgetfigure of 95.5% reflects that our actual numbers are over 5% less than budget. Operations andadministrative areas are very cautious of cost control. Since the books are not closed there maybe additional accruals (expenses) for 2013.. The DRPA Capital Budget percentage looks low foractuals versus budget. The KPI chart includes FTA numbers. We want to reformulate this chartso that it only represents the DRPA budget versus actual for a much clearer spending trend. Mr.White continued that in 2013 there were areas where we underspent, for example, for the carrehabilitation project.

    In the final chart on the KPI Dashboard there is a positive trend from January 2013, when therewere 49 DRPA open positions. That has improved to 32 open positions by the end of December2013. There were 17 positions filled. The numbers reflect the fact that there has beenimprovement along with retirements during the year. In my opinion, we have a number of areasthat are thin and positions must be filled. Commissioner Sasso inquired into how we budget forthese open positions. . He asked if we budget that they will be filled or on what percentage theywill be filled? Mr. White responded that we reach out to the departments and ask them whenthey realistically think these positions will be filled. We then phase them into the budget basedon priority. Mr. Hanson added that as jobs are filled, it creates issues on the next year’s budget.

    Mr. White continued that there has also been improvement on the Lost Time claims.

    In regard to PATCO ridership, it is 1.7% of budget, with 10.5M riders verses the 10.37Mbudgeted. If you look at year-to-date, in 2012 we had an extra day that impacted us by 30,000riders. PATCO’s actual revenues are approximately $900,000 higher than budgeted. Totalrevenue is a little lower versus 2012. PATCO’s books for 2013 expenses are almost closed andis showing more than 5% under budget. Mr. White continued that PATCO’s open positionswent from 33 open positions to 24. PATCO’s on time performance is 96.3%, with a goal of98%. There was a trend from September to December where on time performance fell from97% to about 95-96%. This was due to cars being out of service, defective equipment andweather related issues. Chairman Simon inquired regarding the On Time Performance. He

  • Page 6 of 15

    compared the 95.63% for December where 167 trains were annulled and 79 were late. He statedthat if you then go back to earlier in the year where the number annulled and bypassed weremuch lower, the on time numbers were the same. How do you derive those numbers given thatthe other numbers that precede it are much different? Mr. Rink responded that the numberindicate per late, annulled and bypassed trains. It is generated based on the incidents such as:equipment defects; lack of equipment (84 cars are needed to perform to run peak service and 26cars were sent away for the rehabilitation); issues with our motors, cold and snow that effect themotors and loss of equipment. These factors all affect the schedule. Chairman Simon inquiredhow this effected the equation. Mr. Rink responded that we account for every train on theschedule. If we remove a train it affects our service. Mr. Hanson responded that I understandyour question Chairman. I will look over the numbers and give you a better response at our nextmeeting.

    That concludes the report of the Chief Financial Officer.

    On motion duly made and seconded, the CFO’s Report was approved.

    Chairman Simon stated he wanted to put on record two items which were presented to ViceChairman Nash and himself on the recommendation of General Counsel and outside legalcounsel.

    Report of the Inspector GeneralMr. Raftery stated that the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) is currently in the process offinalizing its first annual report. It will be one report encompassing the activities of 2012 and2013. He stated that, as the Board knows, in the latter part of 2012 the OIG was requested byexecutive management to conduct an audit of PATCO procurement processes. Mr. Hansonrequested that this audit be delayed until Finance had an opportunity to review the procurementprocedures at PATCO. The task was completed and the results were given to the OIG. We thenbegan our audit in January 2013. Based on results of this report he recommended that PATCO’sPerformance Audit be accelerated in 2014. Mr. Raftery continued to say that PATCO is requiredto have a Performance Audit in place per Board resolution with an audit recently completed for

  • Page 7 of 15

    DRPA Public Safety. This is a requirement relative to a Board Resolution. During thebudgetary process it was decided to delay the audit until the latter part of 2014. Based on someadditional issues related at PATCO he recommended, and the Audit committee approved, thatthe performance audit be accelerated. The RFP was advertised on February 7, 2014 and is due onMarch 7, 2014. The audit is to be completed by the end of the year. He thanked HowardKorsen, Danielle McNichol, John Rink and his staff at PATCO for their quick review for heRFP. Mr. Raftery continued that he would like to add that John Rink requested that additionalareas be included in the RFP.

    In addition to the OIG regular duties, Mr. Raftery’s office is currently working on completingthree (3) audit reports. Once those reports are completed the drafts will be submitted toexecutive staff and the Board for review and comment. The OIG will meet with staff membersand make adjustments as warranted. Mr. Raftery said that to date, in addition to these reports,OIG has completed eleven (11) other audit reports; two (2) have been made public, three (3) arein draft, and any public release of those reports is unknown at this time due to external factors.

    Currently, the OIG along, with Finance, are in the initial stages of the 2013 Financial Audit. Theentrance conference with McGladrey is scheduled for today at the Audit Committee meetingbeing held immediately after this meeting. OIG has also started a cash audit process, this issupported by the Finance department. The purpose of this audit is to review internal controls onthe movement of Authority revenue and investments. The OIG advised that they have completedan aggressive audit plan. It is a three (3) to five (5) year plan that can be reviewed annually. Theplan is flexible, allows for changes and will allow for special projects that are requested byBoard members or executive management. The OIG reviewed prior audit activity, or the lackthereof, to develop the plan. Mr. Raftery added that significant expenditures were identifiedwhere internal controls are typically problematic. This was done by reviewing all relevantexisting literature which was factored into this plan.

    In terms of the statistics to date his office has conducted 158 conflict interviews involving 37contracts, 653 reviews of political contribution forms, certification of 180 contracts, two (2)financial audits, one (1) performance audit, seven (7) routine audits and seven (7) investigationaudits. The difference between performance audits and investigative audits the investigativeaudits typically involves a request from Board members or management to determine howsomething occurred and they tend to be more involved.

    Mr. Raftery continued to state that additional statistics for his office include: the OIG hasidentified a $100,000 plus payment which was approved and was previously paid to an economicdevelopment grant recipient. The OIG stopped that payment from leaving the Authority andrecommended billing changes in the department; identified $400,000 in overpayments to avendor. Recovery of those funds is pending in the General Counsel’s office;. His office alsorecovered a duplicate payment of $500 to a vendor and corrected payment procedures in thatdepartment. Mr. Raftery said that a main task that the Board assigned to the OIG prior to hisarrival was the Ethics Point Hotline. To date, the OIG has received 31 complaints from thepublic and employees. One of the issues that is now being addressed is the advertisement of thishotline. It was not aggressively advertised within the Authority or publically. Links have beenadded to both the DRPA and PATCO websites and they are working on expanding theinformation about the hotline. His office is working with Corporate Communications to see if wecan expand both the employees and publics’ knowledge of this website. Mr. Raftery continued

  • Page 8 of 15

    that there is one area that the OIG has not been tracking. Employees come to the OIG forguidance on reforms and other Authority related issues. As a matter of principle and to maintaintheir confidentiality, OIG does not refer those complaints directly to other departments. Headvises the employee who to speak with but it is incumbent on the employee to follow through.It is consistent in maintaining the employee’s confidentiality. Mr. Raftery stated that that theOIG was also involved in the Strategic Planning Committee. One of the recommendations of theStrategic Planning Committee is that OIG take over tracking of 144 recommendations that camefrom CGR. To date, his office does not have the capacity or software to take on theresponsibility due to staffing. OIG has also worked on the Reform Resolution Project. He isfrequently contacted by departments and employees for guidance. OIG worked on the U.S.Government Accountability Office Audit and is providing the Deputy Chief Executive Officerwith Economic Development payment assistance based on his additional responsibilities atPATCO. Mr. Raftery continued that the OIG is also involved in PATCO’s physical inventory.He hopes to have the annual report completed in a month.. It is being reviewed by GeneralCounsel for legality and he will be working with Tim Ireland to finalize the report.Commissioner Sweeney asked who oversees the Ethics hotline. Mr. Raftery responded thatGeneral Counsel, himself and a third party vendor as set up by the Board.

    DRPA-14-022 Consideration of Pending PATCO Contracts (Between$25,000 and $100,000)

    Chairman Simon requested that Mr. Pulte give a summary on the need for these vehicles. Mr.Pulte thanked Hank Trum, Director of Fleet and Steve Reiners, Fleet Manager. He stated thatthey have put in a lot of long hours since we started this fleet department to generate savings forthe Authority and reduce our number of cars and trucks that we have in service. Currently theyare asking for Board approval for six (6) 2014 patrol cars. They will be purchased under theNew Jersey contract. They will be replacing six (6) Crown Victorians which have over 100,000miles. He expects to have the new vehicles up and operating by mid-July, contingent on Boardapproval. It is becoming very costly to repair the vehicles and it is also a safety consideration.Mr. Pulte continued that Fleet is reducing the number of trucks. The Authority will be reducingseven (7) trucks down to six (6). When Fleet replaces a new truck, they send the old truck toauction. If possible, they also try to downsize the fleet. His Department is currently replacingtwo bucket trucks and downsizing to a multi-use smaller vehicle that will be able to be morefunctional on the bridges and at PATCO. Mr. Pulte continued that we are also looking at buyingthe buckets already mounted or separately. This approach saves money. Fleet mechanics willput these together and mount them to the existing trucks. These will be purchased under thePennsylvania contract. Overall this will help increase efficiency by replacing outdated orinadequate trucks. Chairman Simon inquired if the patrol vehicles are all-wheel drive. Mr. Pulteconfirmed. Chairman Simon inquired into the recommendation for the purchase of two (2) 2013vehicles on the Consideration of Pending PATCO contracts list. Mr. Pulte replied that both ofthese are natural gas vehicles and will be replacing other trucks. These vehicles, which will bestationed at the Walt Whitman Bridge are a test project. In working with Mr. Conallen, theefficiency of these vehicles will be examined and the Board will receive the findings.Commissioner Sasso inquired if these purchases were all on state contracts. Mr. Pulte confirmed.

    Unfinished BusinessThere was no DRPA unfinished business.

    New BusinessMr. Conallen stated that staff is requesting authorization from the Board to negotiate anextension to the loan satisfaction agreement with Rendez Blue, a potential developer for the BlueHorizon property on North Board Street in Philadelphia. The board previously passed aresolution first to enter into a loan satisfaction agreement and a subsequent resolution thatextended the agreement because of a pending sheriff sale of the property. The sale waspostponed and the Board passed a resolution extending the agreement to a period past thatsheriff’s sale. Currently, the potential developers satisfied the city tax lien on the property.While there is no longer an impending sheriff sale of the property, the developers, however, arestill finalizing the financing for the project. The previous resolution only gave them an extensionto the end of this month. Staff is seeking an extension for an additional 90 days, to May 31 togive the developers additional time to secure their financing. Leslie Smallwood-Lewis confirmed

  • Page 11 of 15

    this deadline would be sufficient. Commissioner Sasso asked what our return will at closing. Mr.Conallen stated $1M, which is the full amount of our principal investment.

    On motion duly made and seconded, the following Resolutions were unanimously adopted andmade the action of the Authority:

    DRPA-14-023 Extension of Blue Horizon Loan Satisfaction Agreement

    General Counsel advised that currently counsel handling all types of legal matters before theAuthority with the exception of workers compensation are compensated at the rate of $225 perhour. Workers Compensation counsel receives $175.00 per hour and paralegals $100.00. In thismatter the Board is merely authorizing the payment of counsel not on the qualified list to up to$250.00 per hour, as previously authorized as outlined in the resolution.

    Commissioner Sasso inquired into who is authorizing these payments and asked if the attorneysare also delegated. Ms. McNichol stated that the payments are reviewed by General Counsel forcompliance, forwarded to the CEO for approval, and then sent to Finance for payment.Delegation of attorneys is not done through this resolution.

    On motion duly made and seconded, the following Resolution was unanimously adopted andmade the action of the Authority:

    DRPA-14-024 Attorney Professional Services – Not on Qualified List

    On motion duly made and seconded, the following Resolution was unanimously adopted andmade the action of the Authority:

    DRPA-14-025 Approval of Citizens Advisory Committee MembershipNomination

    Commissioner Sasso stated that he believes an employee’s outside employment approval shouldbe decided on a case-by-case basis by the Board. Commissioner Taylor stated that there areparticulars that need to be addressed and this discussion should be tabled. Chairman Simonmotioned to table the discussion, it was seconded, the motion was passed unanimously to tablethe discussion.

    Mr. Raftery stated that the request was made for a few reasons. He was approached by a coupleof outside parties with the opportunity to do some due diligence and compliance work. Most ofthe work, if not all of it, originates outside the State of New Jersey and would be done on his offtime. He is reluctant to go into why he needs the employment, but due to Hurricane Sandy andthe damage that was done to his home, it has has taken a financial toll on his family. Thisprovides him with an opportunity to earn some extra money on his off time. He does not want tosuggest that he will violate any conflict and any questions as to the conflict he will direct to theGeneral Counsel. He came to the Board before making any decisions because he did not want towaste the seeking company’s time. Before discussing details with the companies, he soughtguidance from the Board. Mr. Raftery will ensure that the work does not involve anyCommissioners, companies or vendors associated with the Authority. He would be glad todiscuss any details with Board members.

  • Page 12 of 15

    Commissioner Reilly stated that this request was presented to the Labor Committee for approvalat the last minute. The request was reviewed and approved so that Mr. Raftery could docompliance work for these companies and it was relayed the same as it was today. With theseconditions the Labor Committee recommended, we present this resolution to the Board.Commissioner Sasso reiterated his position is that Mr. Raftery’s work must be reviewed on acase-by-case basis. He added that the Board should be deciding whether there are issues ofconflict, not the General Counsel. It should be fully vetted beforehand as we set precedencebefore. Commissioner Sasso said that he was sorry that Mr. Raftery has these economicconditions, but he also heard in his report that he is understaffed and overworked. So he believesthis all must be considered by the Board before approval is granted. Commissioner Sasso statedthat he advised Mike Venuto that with all the issues in Engineering that the Board might notprovide the same result for him if he would be requesting outside employment at this time.Commissioner Sasso recommended that the motion be tabled until there is further discussion.Commissioner Kichline stated that if you are reading the resolution it states that the Boardevaluates outside employment. It is her understanding that the Board is not abrogatingresponsibility. She thought that was very clear. Commissioner Sasso interjected that Mr. Rafterysaid it would go before the General Counsel and Commissioner Sasso is opposed to that.Commissioner Fratalli stated he concurs with Commissioner Sasso. Chairman Simon stated thatthe issue is where conflict review needs to go. Ms. McNichol stated that according to theResolution that this must come before the Board, not the General Counsel and all matters werediscussed in the Labor Committee prior to the Board Meeting. Commissioner Reilly stated thatthe distinction here is generally when an employee comes to the Board stating they want to workfor a specific employer it is a one-time thing. This is an instance where an individual isrequesting to be a consultant and would be working for different entities. It needs to be clarifiedwhether we are going to require Mr. Raftery to come before the Board for each entity and makeit public. Or are we going to rely upon our professionals to make sure that the consultant work isapproved by the Board and will handle each request to ensure there is no conflict. CommissionerSasso replied he believe each request should come before the Board because he feels it isimportant that the Board consider this, not just the individuals involved. He stated that thetimeframe in which the work is done also needs to be considered. Commissioner Kichline soughtto confirm that outside employment acquired by director level or above needs to be approved bythe Board. She doesn’t believe that the Board is going to do any conflict checking. That can bedone by the General Counsel. But her understanding is that information will be provided to theLabor Committee and, if need be, shared with the Board. Commissioner Sasso stated it shouldbe shared with the Board. Commissioner Reilly stated that he respects everyone’s view on thisbut when you get down to a point where you have a consultant who represents many entities,assuming there are 15 clients paying this individual, are we going to come back to the Boardevery time? It is going to be inefficient and it is his recommendation to approve it as aconsultant. Then as issues come forward, we disclose them to General Counsel, the LaborCommittee and the Board. He feels it is cumbersome to come back every time there is adifferent client. Chairman Simon stated that I think we are applying a tighter level of securityand scrutiny to Mr. Raftery than applied to others granted outside employment.

    Commissioner Reilly advised that as there are other employment requests to come before theBoard, as these must be done on an annual basis, that we can consolidate them and address atnext month’s Labor Committee meeting.

    On motion duly made to table the discussion and seconded, the following Resolution wasunanimously tabled and will be further discussed at the next Labor Committee Meeting.

    DRPA-14-029 Outside Employment

    Citizens Advisory Committee ReportMr. Latko stated that he would like to touch on a few items. First, with regard to the PATCO railline, there is a huge gap in response time and the communication on the platforms is sparse. Mr.Rink stated that they are communicating in real time and are looking into updatingcommunication tools on the platforms with LED screens. Mr. Hanson stated that they areworking on letting the riders know about delays and when the trains are coming. Some ability todo that is difficult with the current tract circuit system in the tunnels. Mr. Latko stated thatmaybe the Authority should look into direct feed and Twitter as real time alerts.

    Mr. Latko next discussed the escalators and elevators. He asked if it can be stated that the currentconstruction is a long term project and quantify the down time? He inquired when all of theescalators would be running again. Mr. Rink stated we will try to provide the timeframe. Mr.Latko thanked the Authority for its efforts on snow removal. The effort was appreciated and hestated that “If you get to the bridge, you can definitely get over it.” In regards to the GatewayCooper River Park West, he attended a meeting a month back and it was a packed house. A lotof people want to see this park opened. He wanted to get an update on where it stands with theAuthority. Commissioner Taylor stated that the question that evening centered on whether theclean parcels can be moved upon. He acknowledged the hold up on the environmental issues.Mr. Conallen replied that we will take direction from the Board on that issue. It is not currentlyknown which parcels are clean and it may not necessarily be known which parcels the DRPA hasauthority to transfer. There are still some questions on the boundaries of these parcels. DPRAhas engaged outside counsel to work with the city and county on clarifying this to ensure whenthis is transferred it is done correctly. Once we get clarification from outside counsel on theboundaries of the parcels and we know the parcels are clean, we will bring it to the Board toallow them to give the option of transferring those particular parcels. On the second issue, theenvironmental piece, we put an RFP out for a licensed site remediation professional. It isanticipated that this will be presented to the Board in March. Commissioner Taylor inquired ifoutside counsel has given us a timeline. Ms. Mayock stated that we have a meeting with outsidecounsel on Friday. Ms. McNichol stated that when Joel Frank was here he stated the title workwould be another four (4) to six (6) weeks, and we are still within that timeframe for the process.Mr. Latko asked whether we should know by then what we own and don’t own. Ms. McNicholstated that she is hopeful that we will have a better understanding from the title work. Mr. Latkocontinued with his report stating that in reference to the Ferry operations it is known the RFPwent out and has a deadline of May 1. He just wanted to state that it is crucial to the CamdenWaterfront and revenue for the Authority to keep up on the process of keeping the Ferry running.

    Auditor General DePasquale had several questions. First, Auditor General DePasquale inquiredabout the phone system. Ms. McNichol stated that the system was acquired prior to herappointment as General Counsel. It was approved by the Board over three (3) years ago thataudio services would be provided and equipment be purchased by the Authority as part of thecontract. She does not believe this was the best way to handle services. There is currently an RFPout to have someone come in to deal with these particular issues. Unfortunately, however, wehave inherited this problem and we are trying to solve it.

  • Page 14 of 15

    Next, Auditor General DePasquale asked if there was a quorum for the entire meeting. Ms.McNichol stated affirmatively there was a quorum.

    Auditor General DePasquale inquired in regards to the tabling of the Inspector General’s requestfor Outside Employment. Chairman Simon replied that the vote was confusing. He stated thathe was advised that next month the Board needs to consider the renewal of outside employmentfor other employees. The fundamental objection was to a case-by-case review and the need formore information. It made sense to Chairman Simon to consider all of the renewals andapplications at one time. Given the problem with the vote and your inability to vote or askquestions, he felt we should defer it to the next meeting.

    Chairman Simon stated that in reference to DRPA-14-029, the Outside Employment request, hewas informed that at the next meeting there will be renewal of Outside Employment requestsfrom employees that already have it in place. Ms. McNichol stated that it is a requirement thatOutside Employment be reviewed on an annual basis. Chairman Simon stated that we can deferDRPA-14-029 and consider it along with the renewals next month. Ms. McNichol stated that isat the Board’s discretion. Chairman Simon stated that he will use his prerogative as Chair toremove DRPA-14-029 from today’s agenda until the next meeting.

    Auditor General DePasquale had several questions regarding the selection of the CEO.

    Auditor General DePasquale inquired about avenues to seek out a CEO on a national search. Heunderstands we are trying to keep the cost to a minimum. Have we had any interest to date andasked about the process for reviewing applicants.

    Ms. Brown stated that the position has been posted for the past two weeks and is currently on ourwebsite, Monster.com, Careerbuilder.com, the Washington Post, the New York Times, TransitTech and a few other national publications. It is scheduled to come down on February 26, 2014.We will be providing the Labor committee updates periodically on the status of the posting inregards to how many applicants we have so far and what state they were received from. We havea very aggressive process that has been put in place which was approved by the LaborCommittee. The Committee will approve one round of interviews and a second round ifnecessary. The interviews will be conducted by the Labor Committee and anyone else the LaborCommittee sees fit to involve. Auditor General DePasquale stated that hypothetically speaking,we receive talented interest but not what we would consider CEO material, is there a process tokeep those applicants on file for future reference of other executive positions within theAuthority. Ms. Brown answered in the affirmative. She will provide a summary of theapplicants received and prepare an executive summary of which applicants meet the minimumqualifications as stated in the job description, as well as the preferred qualifications. Once thereis approval from the Labor Committee regarding the interviews, they will be set up and we willbegin the process.

    Chairman Simon inquired if there were any objections from anyone on the phone to any of theResolutions passed in today’s meeting, not including the Outside Employment request from Mr.Raftery. There being no objection on the phone. On motion duly made and seconded, theResolutions previously discussed in today’s meeting were unanimously adopted and made theaction of the Authority.

    Public CommentMr. Edward Pierce a trustee for Teamsters Local 676, said that what the Teamsters need fromPATCO is a signed interim agreement for the pension plan. The PATCO contract expired in May2011. They have been working without a contract. PATCO has negotiated in good faith bymaintaining the healthcare with increases over the past few years. During this time there havebeen no wage increases or pension increase. A few years ago, their pension fund had to put in afunding improvement plan asking the participating employers to increase their funding by 5%.The drop dead date for that was August 1, 2013. To date there still has been no increase to thatpension. There is a second option, the default option. The risk to the employee is that PATCOwill keep contributing to the pension but the employees’ pension is frozen. Teamsters want toavoid the default and hopes that they can get this done. The 5% increase is only 0.13 ¾ cents perhour. On behalf of the Local 676, they look forward to moving the negotiating process forwardto come to an agreement that will benefit everyone. Commissioner Reilly stated that theDRPA/PATCO has been in negotiations with the Teamsters regarding the expired contracts.We have tried to keep matters status quo for the employees so that once we get a signedagreement we don’t have anything left unaddressed. Commissioner Reilly suggested that Mr.Pierce send a letter to the General Counsel to get all of the issues addressed. This is a subject forExecutive Session but we have made some headway in these discussions. The Commissionersdo not want to cause any harm to employees or the unions while we are trying to get thiscomplete.

    Chairman Simon asked if there were any further comments from the public. There being none, orother further business, on motion duly made and seconded, the meeting was adjourned.
