In 1965 he became an independent consultant to the World Bank. From 1971 until retiring in 1978 he was an administrator with the. Public Health Service and what is now the Department of Education. About 1990 he changed his name to Fairweather his mother's maiden name. The National Capital Transportation Agency NCTA was created in 1960 by an Act of Congress during the presidency of Dwight D. Eisenhower to comprehensively plan different modes of transportation in the Washington D.C. area. John F.
