DescriptionPresident Obama Thanks MassDOT's Robert Ward, April 2, 2010 (4496963280).jpg |
MassDOT's Robert Ward receives a handshake for a job well done by the President. President Obama visited the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency facility in Framingham Thursday, April 2, joined by Governor Patrick, to offer his thanks to Ward and others responding to the historic floods of the past month. Hundreds of public servants from MassDOT, Emergency Management, state and local police and fire, and throughout state and local government worked day and night through multiple flooding events, with the safety of the public as the top priority. Ward is a MassDOT liaison to Massachusetts Emergency Management, coordinating transportation resources for state and local emergency support groups prior to or during a disaster situation. MassDOT's flood response has included coordination of sandbad operations at the MassDOT Lexington depot and support for local cities and towns with sandbag distribution, water discharge pumps, barricades, traffic message signs, and engineers to assist in damage assessment. This is in addition to the immediate response in filling potholes and repairing roadway washouts caused by the excessive rain and flooding. |

Definition of "public record"
Public records are defined in A Guide to the Massachusetts Public Records Law, Published by William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Division of Public Records, (Updated January 2017) at https://www.mass.gov/files/2017-06/Public%20Records%20Law.pdf on page 40, under M.

This is consistent with the statement at http://www.sec.state.ma.us/ARC/arcres/residx.htm:
Note: Works that are considered "public records" but were not created by a state or municipal government agency may be copyrighted by their author; the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution prevents state law from overriding the author's right to copyright protection that is granted by federal law. For example, a state agency may post images online of the final appearance of a building under construction; while the images may be "public records", their creator (eg. architecture/construction firm) retains copyright rights to the image unless the contract with the agency says otherwise. See: Government-in-the-Sunshine Manual: To what extent does federal law preempt state law regarding public inspection of records?. |
