James E. May
1954, Open-File Report 54-192
In December 1952 preliminary geologic and seismic reconnaissance were made if this site. Six seismic profiles were made at this time and a report on this work was transmitted by James E. Maynard and Russell F. Kaiser. The seismic data obtained at this time was derived from a continuous series...
Geologic and seismic investigations for relocation of Route 128 at Route 1A in Dedham, Mass.
James E. May
1954, Open-File Report 54-193
The proposed relocation of Route 128 in Dedham, Mass. requires a grade separation with long approach cuts at its crossing with Route 1A. In order to obtain information on the configuration and depths of the bedrock surfaces, and on the nature of the overlying material, a geologic study was made...
