SLOC PERSONNEL: HALLERAN TO CONSULT ON TRAFFIC CONCERNS

          Thomas Halleran has been hired as a consultant to the
     SLOC and will be responsible for preparing "a good
     transportation system" for the 2002 Winter Games in Salt
     Lake City, according to Mike Gorrell of the SALT LAKE
     TRIBUNE.  Halleran has worked four Olympics as well as other
     events including World Cup soccer and the Rose Bowl and "was
     one of more than a dozen people reviewed for the position,
     whose budget is about $36 million."  Halleran is being
     brought on as a "full-time consultant," and will keep his
     job as a Senior VP of CA-based Forsythe & Associates, a
     transportation management company.  That arrangement "allows
     him to retain retirement benefits and have a job in five
     years, after the Olympics" (SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, 6/17).
