Century Freeway

The Times article regarding the construction of the Century Freeway (Part I, Dec. 27), stated with respect to Prof. Murray Brown:
“Brown is paid $35,000 a year for his efforts but none of the lawyers in the case could think of an important problem he has solved.”
I represent the United States Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration in the case. I was not interviewed, or otherwise contacted, by the authors of the article, and I do not subscribe to the above-quoted statement concerning Brown. I believe that Prof. Brown has been most effective in carrying out his task of resolving disputes and facilitating communication between all of the entities and parties involved in this case.
