**Meeting notice** Amtrak community meeting with significant updates: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/frederick-douglass-tunnel-program-bi-monthly-public-meeting-tickets-1023683534007?aff%3Doddtdtcreator&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw1KW5vEk98mCiFZDjUgiGiH Amtrak recently announced its new plan to blast the tunnel, rather than using the previously identified boring machines. The agency also announced that it would be expanding its pre-construction surveys (i.e., the documentation of homes to make them eligible for coverage under Amtrak's insurance policy) to all properties within 150 feet of blasting. Please consider attending the Amtrak meeting tomorrow night to learn more. (fb)
