Abstract:
ABSTRACT The January 1994 grounding and discharge of over 800,000 gallons (3,028,000 liters/3,028 m3) of low API gravity No. 6 oil from the tank barge Morris J. Berman at San Juan, Puerto Rico was one of those infrequent but typically major events that set in motion a massive skimming and shoreline cleanup operation. As these actions proceeded effectively along the northern coast of Puerto Rico, it quickly became apparent that significant quantities of oil from the Berman had submerged and continued to recontaminate economic, historic, and environmentally sensitive coastal areas after the leaking barge and floating oil had been removed. Recognizing the unique nature of the problem and general lack of Coast Guard or industry-wide experience in the emerging field of submerged oil recovery, the federal on-scene coordinator (FOSC) formed a group within the overall organization to respond to the situation. The methods implemented by this group recovered approximately 145,000 gallons of oil from the seabed at an estimated cost of $8 million.

Abstract:
Depuis les années vingt, des mesures ont été adoptées à Porto Rico, en vue d'abaisser le taux de natalité. Le présent travail situe, dans sa première partie, les politiques de contrôle des naissances, dans le contexte socio-économique de l'ile. Il donne ensuite une courte description de la situation démographique de Porto Rico, une ébauche des politiques démographiques mises en œuvre au cours de ces dernières années et un bref aperçu bibliographique. La seconde partie présente une enquête réalisée dans une communauté aux revenus modestes de San juan, capitale de Porto Rico. Le but était de recueillir et d'écrire les effets de programmes de planning familial sur le comportement procréateur des femmes issues de ces milieux. Certaines variables ont été prises en considération pour analyser les attitudes, concernant la procréation de femmes étudiées, notamment: le nombre d'enfants, le niveau de scolarité, le nombre de mariages, la pratique contraceptive, l'attitude des femmes vis-à-vis de la stérilisation, l'expérience migratoire, la position sur le travail salarie de la femme, la fécondité de leurs mères, entre autres. Le travail se termine sur une analyse sommaire des résultats et l'énonce de quelques conclusions sur les politiques démographiques à Porto Rico
Birth control is a fact in Puerto Rico since 1920. In the first part of this study demographic policies are related to the socio-economic development of the island. This section also includes a brief description of the demographic situation of Puerto Rico, the most important birth control policies and a short bibliographic revision on the subject. The second part of this dissertation presents an out-of-reach study of a low-income community in San Juan - capital of Puerto Rico. The purpose of this research is to describe the effects and consequences of the family planning programs in fertility patterns of low-income women. Several variables were considered in the analysis of the attitudes towards motherhood and contraception of these women: the number of children per woman, their educational level, number of unions, their contraceptive habits, their attitude towards sterilization, their migration experience, their attitudes towards working women and the fertility of their mothers, among other things. This study concludes with a brief analysis of the results and presents some conclusions on demographic policies in Puerto Rico

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 245-248).
This thesis addresses the question whether and how a large transportation infrastructure, in this case a port, can co-exist with a large metropolitan area. The case study analyzed is the redevelopment of the port and waterfront of San Juan, Puerto Rico. The first part reviews how the undergoing changes in the shipping and cruise industry affect ports and cities. It also reviews the developments currently proposed along the waterfront of San Juan. The second part develops a Trip Generation Distribution Computerized Model. This model proposes a methodology to analyze the traffic impact the proposed developments have on the overall roadway network. The third part constitutes an Urban Design and Land Use proposal for a district of the San Juan metropolitan area, Isla Grande. The conceptual transit-oriented development proposal shows a way to accommodate growth that benefits the city and the port, while contributing to alleviate traffic problems. As a contribution to enhance communication between all the stakeholders, a Web Site is developed as part of this thesis. Key Words: Puerto Rico, Port Planning, Cruise Industry, Waterfronts, Traffic Modeling, Urban Transportation, Urban Design, Land Use Planning, Transit Oriented Development.

Abstract:
La ville doit etre consideree dans son universalite et son exceptionnalite. L'observation de trois centres historiques comme ceux de la havane, de san juan de puerto rico et de la nouvelle- orleans, appartenant a une meme aire geographique en l'occurrence la mediterranee americaine, permet de s'interroger plus precisement sur les parts respectives de l'universalite et de l'exceptionnalite de chacun d'entre eux. La premiere partie de la these s'interroge ainsi sur l'ambivalence de ce territoire. Elle doit d'ailleurs etre comprise a deux niveaux. En effet, il existe une exceptionnalite du centre historique par rapport au reste de la ville, qui constitue un premier degre d'universalite entre les trois villes, et il existe une exceptionnalite des centres historiques entre eux. L'utilisation d'un certain nombre d'eclairages geographiques comme les paysages, la situation des centres historiques dans la ville, la perception qu'en ont les populations, ou la combinaison fonctionnelle qui les caracterise permet d'affirmer leur existence en tant que territoire particulier, mais aussi l'existence d'un certain nombre d'irregularite les differenciant. L'interrogation des conditions de leur genese et de leur dynamique permet d'expliquer ces deux facettes. Des conditions mecaniques comme l'explosion demographique ou l'eclatement de la centralite en differents points du territoire urbain ont permis leur emergence dans les trois villes qui nous interesse. Au contraire, il doit exister des determinants responsables de l'irregularite des centres historiques entre eux, l'hypothese etant que le politique en tant que jeu entre differents acteurs en soit le principal. Cependant, contrairement a celle-ci, l'observation de l'espace politique du centre historique a travers sa prise en compte au fil du xxe siecle montre que malgre des projets a priori differents, la dynamique des centres historiques semble plus marquee par les imperatifs economiques
The city have to be seen in its unity and its diversity. Three historic centers, old havana, old san juan, and the french quarter in new orleans can show this division. This three historic centers are only in front of the city and they are different each other. History can explain unity and diversity. We have thought that urban growth and evolution of the urban core were causes of unity. Historic preservation from state and private entities were responsible of diversity. Havana, san juan and new orleans were very interesting because very different for their urban policy. The historical study display that even historic preservation was different, evolution of historic centers is comparable. Old havana, old san juan and the french quarter of new orleans have to be seen like a tourist-historic city with variations of size. So, we can conclude that another dimension, perhaps globalization, can explain diversity of three historic centers. Economoic problems in cuba for example stop all programs of historic preservation

Full text
Abstract:
La Casa Blanca (The White House) is the old fortress house of Juan Ponce de Leon’s family, located in the city of San Juan Bautista de Puerto Rico also known as Old San Juan. The house was originally built in the early 1500s as one of the first permanent constructions on the islet of San Juan. Both the house and its grounds have undergone several physical changes through their almost 500 years of existence. The house (which today is a museum) has been restored and documented, including the surrounding buildings which were built during the 17th and 18th Centuries and which form the Casa Blanca building complex.Today several garden areas exist on the grounds of Casa Blanca. These gardens have the potential to enhance the site more than they do presently, not only in the aesthetic experience that the visitor to Casa Blanca could have because of the beauty of the place, but also in the experience of history and legend associated with Juan Ponce de Leon.Lamentably, with the possible exception of the Hispano-Moorish garden located next to the central patio of Casa Blanca, the remaining garden areas have not been formally documented for purposes of correct design development or so that the visitor may appreciate and understand their history. In this creative project the author has documented all the information available on Casa Blanca and its gardens from written sources, plans, and from oral interviews obtained in Puerto Rico and the United States.The original intent of the author was not only to document the gardens and grounds of Casa Blanca, but also to create a restoration/rehabilitation design for the best use of this area. This scheme would be in accordance with their historic, legendary, and aesthetic relationship to Casa Blanca and Old San Juan as part of the total cultural heritage of Puerto Rico. Instead, this research of Casa Blanca's gardens' history in itself became the focus of the creative project due to the large amount of time and effort necessary to locate and compile the information. A rehabilitation design plan was not possible in the time frame for this project. However, this investigation opened new areas of study, as it dealt with the overall unrecorded garden history of Puerto Rico which was essential to document before a restoration/rehabilitation plan could be made. The author hopes that this study, as the first documentation of a Puerto Rican garden, will initiate the recording of the total garden history of Puerto Rico.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.C.P.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Urban Studies and Planning, 2002.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 154-160).
San Juan, Puerto Rico, like many North American cities, has turned to rail lines as a solution to the mounting traffic congestion threatening the urban environment. However, a rail system must rely on other transit modes to provide feeder services in order to expand its reach and broaden its customer base. This requires intermodal integration. The challenge facing the future success of Tren Urbano, the new rail system projected to open in the next two years, is the integration of the publicos. The publico is the owner operated jitney service indigenous to Puerto Rico that the government anticipates will offer crucial feeder services to Tren Urbano. For intermodal integration to succeed, publicos must offer comparable service quality. Unfortunately, the service quality of publico transit is poor as a consequence of the long-term decline of the publico industry. Therefore, the goal of the government is to improve publico service quality so it is comparable with the rest of the transit system, while recognizing the unique owner operator quality of the industry. This thesis examines four different jitney systems in North America. The study documents the development of the jitney service, how different cities govern jitney operators, and what affect the governance structure has on the quality of service. The purpose of this study is to determine what kind of governance structure leads to a high quality of jitney service. The study also examines what other factors contribute to high quality service. The ultimate goal is to apply the findings to San Juan, Puerto Rico in order to define future publico reforms. The case studies illustrate that North American jitney services all rely on hybrid governance models, consisting of government controls and self-regulating mechanisms. The study suggests that a hybrid governance structure that is based on cooperation between operators and government regulators leads to superior service quality. However, service quality is not merely a function of governance structure. Service quality also depends on the profitability of the jitney service, institutional strength, and the context of the industry. In a highly profitable setting, industry actors will spontaneously mobilize and provide a high quality of service. Consequently, the recommendations from this study examine ways of improving the profitability of the publico industry in order to improve the quality of service. In an unprofitable environment, the government must take the lead in developing other strategies to encourage service quality improvements. The recommendations in this study also suggests that the government proactively assist the publico industry improve service quality though various institutional and governance strategies.

Abstract:
Spanish was entrenched as the language of public-school instruction with the advent of elected governors in the middle of the previous century. Since then heated exchanges over the language-education nexus subsided significantly. English is still associated with upward socio-economic mobility and facilitated migration to the US mainland. This chapter also explores the linguistic panorama and linguistic enclaves on the island. The largest pockets of English speakers are in the San Juan metropolitan area and areas adjacent to military installations. Data also reveal that since Puerto Rico’s economic downturn in the first decade of this century the percentage of English speakers on the island has dropped significantly. The drop coincides with a mass migration off the island. Consequently, English is no longer associated exclusively with Americans. It is increasingly becoming a critical medium for communication with stateside Puerto Ricans.

Abstract:
A design-build workshop organized by Taller CreandoS in Encargos a collective founded by four female architecture professors; Yazmín M. Crespo, AndreaBauzá, Irvis González y Omayra Rivera, at La Perla, a community outside the northern historic city-wall of old San Juan, Puerto Rico. Together the professors share interests to revitalize deteriorated and abandon urban spaces with ephemeral interventions and participative workshops in an effort to redefine the conventional way of understanding the professional practice of architecture. The workshop invited students from the three architecture and design schools in Puerto Rico; Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, University of Puerto Rico School of Architecture, Pontifical Catholic University of Puerto Rico and the school of Visual Arts in Old San Juan to work together with international architecture collectives Todo porla Praxis from Madrid, Spain; Arquitectura Expandida from Bogotá, Colombia; and FG Studio from New YorkCity in three design-build projects together with the community. The workshop included lectures by the three international architects’ collectives, a design charrette, community presentations, final review, a round table and construction of the interventions from August 31to September 7, 2013.

Abstract:
Solar radiation was measured and recorded on a 5-minute, hourly and daily basis at a number of sites on the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico (located from 18° to 18° 30’N latitude and from 65° 30’ to 67° 15’W longitude) over a 24 calendar month time frame. The global solar radiation was measured at four sites (namely: Aguadilla, Ponce, Gurabo, and San Juan). The global solar radiation data was measured by an Eppley Precision Spectral Pyranometer (model PSP) mounted on a horizontal surface. This pyranometer is sensitive to solar radiation in the range of 0.285 ≤ λ ≤ 2.8 μm wavelengths. Statistical analysis such as the daily average, monthly average hourly, monthly average daily, and annual average daily global radiation are presented in this paper. Despite its small size, a 13 percent variation in the global solar radiation has been observed within the island. Reasonable solar radiation values, for solar energy conversion system installation, seem to exist at and possibly around Aguadilla.

Abstract:
The main objective of this study is to identify how climate variability influences human comfort levels in tropical-coastal urban environments. San Juan Metro Metropolitan Area (SJMA) of the island of Puerto Rico was chosen as a reference point. Temperature and relative humidity are identified as key environmental variables to maintain human comfort level. A new Human Discomfort Index (HDI) using the key environmental variables based on environmental enthalpy is defined. This index is expanded to determine the energy required to maintain indoor human comfort levels and is compared to total electric energy consumption for the island of Puerto Rico. Regression analysis shows that both temperature and HDI are good indicators to predict total electrical energy consumption. Results showed that over the past 35 years the average environmental enthalpy have increased, resulting in the increase of average HDI for SJMA. Surface weather station data further shows clear indication of urbanization biases ramping up the HDI. Long-term local scale (weather station; 30-years record) data shows a decreasing rate of maximum cooling per capita at −11.41 kW-h/years, and increasing of minimum cooling per capita of 10.64 kW-h/years. This contrasts with regional scale data for the whole Caribbean where increasing trends are observed for both minimum and maximum energy per capita. To estimate human comfort levels under extreme heat wave events conditions, an event of 2014 in the San Juan area was identified. The analysis is complemented by data from the National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) at 250km spatial resolution, North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) at 32 km spatial resolution, and simulations of the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) at a resolution of 1 km, and by weather station data for San Juan. Model results were evaluated against observations showing good agreement for both temperature and relative humidity and improvements from the NCEP input. It also shows that Energy Per Capita (EPC), required to maintain indoor space at human comfort level, in urban areas during a heat wave event can increase to 21% as compared to normal day.
