Abstract: NEW YORK (Standard&Poor's) Nov. 6, 2009--Standard&Poor's Ratings Services corrected its rating on one maturity of Massachusetts' series 1991A general transportation system bonds, due March 1, 2021, issued through Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), to 'AA' with a stable outlook from 'AAA' (outlook not meaningful). The 'AA' rating reflects the current underlying rating on the authority's general transportation system debt. On April 9, 1996, we assigned our 'AAA' rating to this maturity of the series 1991A bonds based on incorrect information indicating that the bonds were secured by U.S. government securities in escrow. We subsequently received information from the authority that the bonds were not secured by an escrow and remain obligations of the MBTA system.
