12th Ward Aldermanic Selection Survey - 2022

In association with the November 2022 process for 12th ward residents to apply for the opportunity to fill the aldermanic vacancy in that ward, residents were also invited to fill out an online survey, seeking their opinions on issues. The results of that survey are shown in this dataset.

Respondents were presented with seven issues and asked to rank them from most urgent to least urgent.

The final question was free text, intended to capture other issues but if the respondent provided other text, it is included.

Please note that the survey is not and was not intended to be a random sample or otherwise scientifically or statistically valid. There were no formal barriers to people not residents of the 12th ward responding, people responding more than once, or other things of that nature. It was intended only as a simple tool to collect such information as people cared to submit and should be interpreted in that spirit.

A copy of the original survey is at <a href="https://forms.office.com/Pages/DesignPageV2.aspx?subpage=design&token=bfa6889e0f674cd6a4f1fedccb402c8d&wdlor=cF4F6C0D3-9163-45CB-A834-4D4CA5D9F255&id=qc02cC0GUUGBRJfdxW5wJ2WUSmVcTNRNtAgDSPV9FxxUMUMyUDQ5RUw1WTRSTDdNRlY2U1lCVUhDVy4u&analysis=false">this link</a>.

Toxics Release Inventory Facility List

The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) tracks the management of certain toxic chemicals that may pose a threat to human health and the environment. Certain industrial facilities in the U.S. must report annually how much of each chemical is recycled, combusted for energy recovery, treated for destruction, and disposed of or otherwise released on- and off-site. This information is collectively referred to as production-related waste managed.

Synthetic Healthcare Database for Research (SyH-DR)

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) created SyH-DR from eligibility and claims files for Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurance plans in calendar year 2016. SyH-DR contains data from a nationally representative sample of insured individuals for the 2016 calendar year. SyH-DR uses synthetic data elements at the claim level to resemble the marginal distribution of the original data elements. SyH-DR person-level data elements are not synthetic, but identifying information is aggregated or masked.

School Safety and Discipline, 2013-14

School Safety and Discipline, 2013-14 (FRSS 106), is a study that is part of the Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) program; program data is available since 1998-99 at <https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/downloads.asp>. FRSS 106 (https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/index.asp) is a study that provides nationally representative data on safety and discipline in public schools. The study was conducted using mailed questionnaires that could be completed on paper or online. Public schools in each level (elementary, middle, high school, and combined) were sampled. The study's weighted response rate was 85%. Key statistics produced from FRSS 106 will provide information on specific safety and discipline plans and practices; training for teachers and aides related to school safety and discipline issues; use of law enforcement or security personnel on school grounds; frequency of specific discipline problems; and the number of incidents of various crimes that occurred during the 2013-14 school year.

PFAS flushing from home plumbing and impacts of stagnation

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) can be accidentally backflushed into drinking water systems during firefighting operations or at industrial facilities.  If this contaminated water enters household plumbing systems, homeowners may need to decontaminate their plumbing.  This study examines the persistence of PFAS from AFFF on home plumbing, along with the effects of flushing and stagnation.  Two sources of AFFF were investigated, representing older formulations (that contain longer chain PFAS) and newer formulations (that contain shorter chain PFAS). Experiments were conducted in copper, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) pipes with flushing after contamination followed by intermittent flow and periods of stagnation meant to mimic typical household use.  Flushing immediately reduced the PFAS concentration in water leaving the pipe by 99.95 to 99.99%. However, PFAS concentration increased after periods of stagnation, corresponding to slow release of adhered PFAS.

The authority granted to the County Executive by law to take a certain specific action or the means by which the County Executive exercises his general executive powers. An order generally directs a specific single action rather than establishing rules and standards. Examples of the use of Executive Orders granted by local law include the specific authority of the County Executive under Section 2A-17 of the County Code to issue traffic orders which direct the establishment of stop signs, fire lanes, no parking, etc., at particular designated locations. Examples of Executive Orders arising from his general authority under the Charter of Montgomery County include orders to acquire specific parcels of land for rights-of-way, to direct condemnation by the County Attorney, and to authorize the sale of surplus County property.
