NOTICE

1. PURPOSE. On July 18, 1993, the Federal Highway Administration gave notice (N 2000.447) that it proposed to debar the below named company. This notice serves to advise that the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has determined that a debarment against the below named firm is not in the public interest and is not necessary for the Federal Government's protection.

2. NO ACTION TAKEN

   1. The FHWA declines to take any action against the following firm:

      Jablonski & Mead Associates
      1200 MacArthur Boulevard
      3rd Floor
      Mahwah, New Jersey 07430

   2. A former employee of the firm, Mr. Jose Crespo, pleaded guilty to conspiracy and filing false reports in connection with his illegal conduct on the Suffern Interchange project. Mr. Crespo received a bribe from Hudson Foundations to falsely certify that piles on the project were driven to the depth required by the design specifications.

   3. The information before the FHWA strongly supports that Jablonski & Mead Associates and its principals were not culpable parties in the illegal conduct and, basically, were merely the unfortunate employers of Mr. Crespo.
