    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A news article that discusses the many ways in which Brian Sullivan attempted to enact safer security measures at airports prior to the September 11, 2001 attacks. Sullivan, a former special agent for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), worked with a local television crew to expose gaps in security at Logan Airport in early 2001. Unfortunately, Sullivan&#039;s work did not provide the impetus to rework security measures, so in August 2001, he wrote a letter to Senator John Kerry to express his concerns. Kerry asked the Department of Transportation&#039;s Inspector General to investigate, but the FAA responded that they were continuing &quot;to address security issues raised by the video presentation.&quot; Three weeks later, the September 11, 2001 attacks occurred. ]]></dcterms:description>
