S.DakotaWaterPlantSees$215MUpgrade

By Cindy Riley CEG CORRESPONDENT

As the first major expansion at the South Dakota facility in more than 40 years, a $215 million upgrade of the Sioux Falls Regional

Water plant will significantly increase the plant’s ability to treat wastewater safely and effectively. When complete, the plant is expected to see a 50 percent increase in treatment capacity, from 21 million gal. per day (gpd) to 30 million gpd.

“This is a huge deal,” said Mark Perry, waste-

water superintendent, city of Sioux Falls Public Works. “The project will rehabilitate the current facility, while expanding the plant.

“The city of Sioux Falls and surrounding area has experienced rapid population growth over

Michigan’s $250M Innovate Mound Technology, Reconstruction Coming to Important Economic Corridor

By Cindy Riley CEG CORRESPONDENT

In an effort to rebuild one of the most significant corridors in southeast Michigan, construction crews are immersing themselves in the Innovate Mound project. The multi-million-dollar undertaking will reportedly strengthen connectivity by using sophisticated design and smart technology to build a modern, multimodal stretch of roadway.

“Aside from the economic importance, the corridor serves as a main connector between I-696 and M-59 while connecting neighborhoods from Sterling Heights to Warren,” said Steve Griffith, construction department manager of the civil engineering and infrastructure firm HNTB. “It’s of the utmost importance that the Mound Road corridor stays in good condition to ensure economic and social benefits can continue to grow.

“For years, Mound Road has been notorious for its potholes and constant rehabilitation projects that have been plaguing one of the country’s most economically important corridors. Macomb County was spending a significant portion of its annual maintenance budget on Mound Road alone. The county could not afford the costs to completely reconstruct the corridor and looked for potential funding support.”

Macomb County is leading the Innovate Mound project, working closely with the city of Sterling Heights, the city of Warren and the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT). County officials hired HNTB to perform program management, construction engineering and inspection.

The overall Innovate Mound program cost is approximately $250 million. In 2017, Macomb County applied for a federal INFRA grant to pay for reconstruction. A total of $98 million in federal funds was awarded to the county from the USDOT. The grant required that all funds be spent, and the project be completed by the end of 2024.

Griffith noted that the time had come to carry out the work.

“Mound Road, though still functional and drivable, needed a total reconstruction. In previous years, Macomb County made it a priority to continuously rehabilitate the pavement to ensure it continued to be serviceable. After performing a life cycle analysis on the corridor, Macomb County determined it was the optimal time to reconstruct it, to avoid addi-

tional wasted costs on any more rehab.”

Griffith said to effectively reconstruct Mound Road, traffic was reduced to two lanes in each direction. Major intersections are permitted to be closed for 21 days to expedite the construction at these roads and minimize lane closures.

Additional lane closures are permitted during nighttime hours to minimize impacts to traffic, while also allowing sufficient room for the design-builder to safely complete construction activities.

Griffith pointed out the importance of receiving feedback.

“Community input is paramount to the success of the project. The team has conducted five different open house events throughout the life of the project to receive feedback to implement in the design and provide an update on the construction status.

In addition, the project team has conducted more than 100 meetings with various businesses and community groups to inform stakeholders of the project status during both the design and construction phases.”

To date, construction has been progressing well with minimal delays and conflicts. Construction is currently 45 percent complete.

“Like any other project, the construction team has experienced some unexpected issues dealing with unknown utilities and right-of-way restrictions, especially in the limits where we are expanding from three to four lanes,” said Griffith.

According to Ryan Sarmiento, HNTB engineering construction services, some of the biggest challenges have involved utility relocations.

“With the changes being made by widening Mound Road from 17 Mile Road to M-59, installing an 8-ft. wide nonmotorized path on the west side of Mound Road from 14 Mile Road to M-59 and installing median basins, utility relocations are a major task and challenge to coordinate the more than 10 utility companies that need to relocate. Getting everyone to the table to understand the needed relocations and the order of utilities that need to be relocated from first to last is every project’s largest challenge.”

Access management also must be addressed.

“We understand businesses and residents must be able to operate as normal regardless of the construction impacts. It’s a challenge to ensure there are minimal impacts to these stakeholders during construction. This includes reaching out to these individuals to inform them of the work that will be occurring in front of their property, so they can properly prepare for any impacts.

“Another challenge is reconstructing their driveways without cutting access to their property off entirely. This is achieved by part-width construction.”

Sarmiento said rebuilding Mound Road in Macomb County from I-696 north to M-59 is no small task.

“This is a total reconstruction, which includes pavement removal, storm sewer, watermain and sanitary improvements, as well as cutting and building grade, paving concrete, paving curb and sidewalk, installation of traffic signals, permanent signs, pavement markings, restoration, bridge widening, box culvert replacement, structure rehabilitation and much more.”

For the majority of the corridor, there will be continuous sidewalk on both the east and west side of the road. On the west side, a non-motorized path will be installed from 14 Mile Road to M-59, which will accommodate cyclists, runners and walkers.

Once the concrete is paved out, it takes roughly an additional five days to achieve the required strength prior to opening it up to traffic.

First Media Group photo Site work has been busy, with contractors performing various tasks from I-696 to M-59.

Heavy machinery being used on the project includes bulldozers, excavators, rollers, dump trucks, a trimming machine, concrete paving machine, backhoes and survey equipment.

Women Builders ‘On the Case’at Habitat for Humanity

When a group of women from CNH Industrial’s Case Construction Equipment brand volunteered for housing charity Habitat for Humanity, the results were amazing. Their experience building homes for women in need in Wisconsin not only taught them valuable teamwork skills, but also helped strengthen Case’s commitment to diversity and inclusion (D&I).

Case has a proud heritage of using its expertise in the building sector to help shelter some of society’s most vulnerable. It is important to the company to invest in and help develop the communities in which it has a historical presence. Keen to continue this tradition, 20 Case employees, all of them women, recently volunteered to support the nonprofit housing organization Habitat for Humanity in Racine, Wis., on the shores of Lake Michigan, in its first ever Women Build event.

In Racine, the Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build initiative focuses on building affordable housing to support single mothers and draws attention to housing inequality.

“It was especially powerful because we created a strong, sister-like bond while also helping other women,” said Jessica Klein, marketing communications manager of Case in Racine, who was one of the volunteers.

Affordable Housing — The Numbers

The figures are impressive. Habitat for Humanity has sold nearly 100 new or refurbished homes in Racine to date, providing safe, affordable housing for 164 adults and 213 children. Each is priced at fair market value. Loans are interest-

free and mortgage payments are calculated to remain below 30 percent of the homebuyer’s monthly income.

Making Housing Fairer for Single Women

Single women, and especially single mothers, face many challenges to access safe, affordable homes in the United States.

“They can pay up to two percent more for their homes and sell them for up to three percent less than single men due to implicit bias and prejudice built into the homebuying process,” according to Grant Buenger, executive director of Racine’s Habitat for Humanity.

Habitat for Humanity projects ensure affordability regardless of gender and protect women from paying higher costs for their homes.

“Our homeowners start their homeownership journey with no deficit and gain the strength, stability and selfreliance needed to care for their families,” said Buenger.

Case Of Women Helping Women

The Case women rolled up their sleeves and were on hand to prepare wood boards for building — first cutting them to size, then fastening the lumber together with nails and screws to frame the four walls of a new house.

Welcoming families to the new homes that they had helped to build was a powerful experience for the Case volunteers. Watching women and children see their beautiful new homes for the first time was particularly emotional.

These homes feature open plan living and include stylish white woodwork and warm accents.

“This was incredible to see,” said Klein. “These women were very appreciative, and the Case team was so grateful to have shared in their experience. The day generated great energy and warmth among us, but more importantly, it’s contributing to provide a safe place and some peace of mind for these families.”

Promoting Inclusion, Equity, Engagement

CNH Industrial is committed to creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive environment where all employees are valued, empowered and encouraged to make a difference.

In 2021, the company adopted new 2024 D&I targets. These include a commitment to increase the representation of women across the total workforce year-on-year; institutionalizing gender equality practices on career and compensation; and having women in 20 percent of leadership roles by 2024.

To establish a diverse, inclusive and attractive workplace well into the future, the company is carrying out initiatives that ensure women and minorities are equitably represented throughout all levels of its talent pipeline. In addition to providing unconscious bias training to all employees, CNH is encouraging them to start new employee resource groups (ERGs) while increasing membership and participation of existing groups. The company also is creating region-specific initiatives that advance our D&I efforts.

Gov.EversProposes $3.8B Budget for WisconsinProjects

By Scott Bauer ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADISON, Wis. (AP) Gov. Tony Evers on Feb. 28 proposed spending $3.8 billion on building projects in 28 counties around the state, with nearly half directed toward work across the University of Wisconsin System.

The plan will first go to the state building commission on March 23 for consideration, but it would ultimately need the approval of the Republican-controlled Legislature. Republicans slashed Evers’ spending proposals on building projects in each of his past two budgets.

Two years ago, Republicans approved spending $1.5 billion on building projects out of the $2.4 billion that Evers proposed. In 2019, Evers’ first budget, Republicans approved $1.9 billion out of $2.5 billion that Evers wanted.

North American marketing. “By expanding the Bobcat brand to the portable power, industrial air and industrial vehicle industries, Bobcat can help even more customers, in more ways than ever.”

With this refreshed identity, the DPP, DIAand DIV product suites will, respectively, undergo design and aesthetic changes in alignment with current Bobcat branding. Bobcat-branded material handling equipment, industrial air compressors and portable power products are expected to be available for customer purchase through Doosan Bobcat’s extensive, global dealer network at a later date. Bobcat and these rebranded product lines will remain part of the broader Doosan Group portfolio. 

Republican Rep. Mark Born, co-chair of the Legislature’s budget committee, accused Evers of proposing “massive spending and unrealistic growth.” He said the Legislature’s plan, which is likely to be finalized in June, will prioritize projects that “ensure we’re in a strong position for the future.”

Unlike in previous years, which relied heavily on borrowing to pay for the projects, Evers this time proposed paying for about half of the work in cash, citing the state’s record-high budget surplus of about $7 billion.

“Our historic surplus means we have historic opportunity and responsibility to invest in key projects that have long been neglected while still staying well within our means, keeping borrowing low, and saving taxpayers money in the long run,” Evers said in a statement.

Evers called for spending $1.8 billion on projects at UW campuses. That includes:

• $347 million to demolish and replace the engineering building on the UW-Madison campus;

• $231 million to demolish the science building at UWEau Claire and build a new facility to house several programs;

• $182 million to demolish and replace the science building at UW-La Crosse; and

• $169 million to partially demolish, renovate and build a new art building at UW-Madison.

Two years ago, Republicans approved nearly $629 million in projects at UW, down from the $1 billion Evers wanted.

Other proposed projects include $41 million in fiberoptic upgrades at the state Capitol to improve cellular service; $225 million for health services facilities; an additional $60 million for the already approved construction of a new state history museum near the Capitol; and $84 million for improvements at a variety of Wisconsin National Guard facilities.

There are a host of local projects, including funding for the Milwaukee Iron District; Woodman’s Sports and Convention Center in Janesville; Green Bay National Railroad Museum; Marquette University School of Dentistry; and the Door County Peninsula Players Theatre. 

Komatsu, Cummins Partner for Integrated Monitoring

Unplanned downtime from equipment and engine maintenance at mines can be very costly. To create more value for customers, Komatsu and Cummins have partnered to deliver a new, integrated remote equipment monitoring solution designed to reduce unplanned stoppages, accelerate maintenance execution, and extend component life and maintenance intervals.

By sharing equipment health and performance data over common infrastructure, and collaborating on health analytics, both companies can access the same secure data and develop joint analytics and insights. Data is collected on a single device and all actions are managed in a shared case management system, allowing experts from both teams to work remotely with a customer’s maintenance staff.

Integrating machine OEM support from Komatsu with expert OEM engine insight from Cummins allows both to proactively monitor asset health and optimize maintenance management, designed to help mining customers:

• avoid unplanned maintenance

• predict maintenance needs

• decrease production costs and downtime from maintenance

• increase asset utilization

Less Hardware = Improved Maintenance Time, Reduced Costs

In the past, equipment and engine data collection and generation involved multiple data logging devices, each with their own individual remote data connection. Customers typically had separate devices, which created separate data silos for subsystems on a single haul truck.

With multiple data flows, mines have less control over where the data goes and who has access, whereas a single piece of hardware can simplify data flow and may also enhance cybersecurity. By removing the need for duplicative communication infrastructure and multiple points of connection, the Cummins and Komatsu solution can offer new insights to help mining managers make better decisions faster.

Less hardware also reduces maintenance time and

machine downtime because there is less hardware to install, and there are fewer components to maintain.

Simplified, Improved Analytics

This solution is designed to improve asset protection and reduce harm to fleets, to give customers a simplified and improved experience for asset health case management, onboarding and analytics. Instead of subscribing to separate solutions from Komatsu and Cummins, this new solution offers mines a more cost-effective approach to monitoring.

“With this partnership, we are tying two high-value services together,” said Greg Lanz, general manager, technology interoperability of Komatsu. “By combining data analytics from both Komatsu and Cummins, we can collaborate to help our customers maximize total asset performance and health.”

“Our aim with this integrated solution is to deliver a robust best-in-class solution to help our customers succeed,” said Dana Miller, director digital and service solutions of

Cummins.

Effective asset management solutions don’t just provide more data about a site’s equipment and engines, they help ensure that data is useful and organized so stakeholders can be more proactive. For example, understanding where a truck is in the mine, what its payload is, and which operator is driving it, all provide useful context to analyze why the engine is behaving a particular way.

By combining engine and non-engine data, mining customers will be able to see all of their equipment data in one place, with insights and recommendations for a holistic view of the machine.

“The collaboration between Cummins and Komatsu on broader data sets opens opportunities for us to build more complex analytics and insights,” Lanz added. “The secret sauce is combining the expertise of both teams.” For more information, visit www.komatsu.com and cummins.com. 

Manitou Launches Rough-Terrain Forklifts Built for Rental

Manitou is launching two new models of rough-terrain forklifts for the rental industry with a focus on durability, ease of use and simplicity of service: the all-new M30-4 and M40-4. Both models feature 4-wheel drive with 24-in. rough-terrain tires with two options for easy and confident operation on all surfaces.

“These new rough-terrain forklifts are purpose-built for success in the rental industry, with a focus on premium Manitou quality and lower total cost of ownership [TCO],” said Brian Rabe, product marketing and training manager, Manitou. “They are extremely easy to operate and easy to service, easy to transport — all while delivering an overall operator experience that will

ensure high utilization and

rentability.”

The all-new M30-4 and M40-4 feature rated operating capacities of 6,063 lbs. (M30-4) and 8,179 lbs. (M40-4), a 42-degree forward tilt angle, a shorter width and length for greater maneuverability, shorter turning radii and considerably greater ground clearances of 15.5 in. (M30-4) and 16 in. (M40-4).

Two mast options are available on each machine: a full visibility duplex (FVD) mast with an extended mast height of 18 ft., and a full visibility triplex (FVT) mast with an extended mast height of 26 ft. Both feature sideshift capabilities and tilting performance of 38 degrees forward and 12 degrees back (M30-4) and 42 degrees forward and 12 degrees back (M40-4).

“The capacities of these machines will go toe-to-toe with anyone, and each of these units have a considerable advantage in comfort and operation in a more confined footprint — making it more practical to rent in a broader range of applications,” said Rabe.

Base models feature an open cab with ROPS and no glass — built for simplicity and lower TCO, especially in warm weather regions. Additional options for the M30-4 and M40-4 include a semi-enclosed cab and door kit, a heating system, cold weather operating packages, lighting packages and a Bluetooth radio setup.

DEVELON Tool Carriers NowAvailable in NorthAmerica

DEVELON, formerly known as Doosan Infracore, has introduced its next-generation tool carrier models — the DL200TC-7 and DL250TC-7 — in the United States and Canada. These new models round out the -7 Series wheel loader introductions for the company.

Like their -5 Series predecessors, the DL200TC-7 and DL250TC-7 tool carriers have a parallel-lift linkage system that gives operators precise control over a variety of attachments in applications other than loading, such as lift- and place-type applications. The tool carrier’s lift arm design keeps the attachment level, allowing for faster lifting and placing of materials.

“We’ve incorporated performance and design elements, like enhanced visibility, into our -7 Series tool carriers to help operators on jobsites,” said Bill Zak, wheel loader product manager. “Our tool carrier models can improve an operator’s ability to load, unload and move materials, reducing the need for additional equipment and enhancing productivity.”

Versatility on the job site is important to wheel loader operators, especially when they want to change attachments quickly. The DL200TC-7 and DL250TC-7 may be equipped with an optional hydraulic quick coupler to easily change non-hydraulic attachments, including buckets — general purpose, light material or multi-purpose — and pallet forks.

Increased Visibility, All-Day Comfort

With increased visibility down the center of the parallellift arms, operators can clearly see the ground, truck or work area in front of the machine. The tool carriers also feature increased glass area, full glass door, large mirrors and optional LED work lights to improve overall visibility. A standard rearview camera provides an additional view of the machine’s surroundings and appears on the 8-in. Smart Touch display inside the cab.

With the exclusive Transparent Bucket option, operators can get a supplemental view “through the bucket” from an in-cab display. The wheel loader cab offers relocated, intuitive controls, and the SmartTouch screen displays all important information as well as the rearview camera view.

The heating and air conditioning system has been

redesigned from previous wheel loader generations to help operators stay comfortable year-round.

More Power, Improved Precision

The hydrostatic transmission in the DL200TC-7 tool carrier delivers more power, better fuel efficiency and improved precision. Key features of the hydrostatic drive include:

• Dynamic Braking: When operators remove their foot from the travel control pedal, the system will automatically reduce the flow of oil, causing the machine to slow. This means less wear on the brakes and reduced energy consumption.

• Speed Management: Operators can adjust their maximum travel speed independently from engine speed. Operators also can use the convenient creep function to easily fine-tune their loader’s position without pressing the accelerator pedal.

For more control when doing precision work, the variable speed control offers seven preset speeds within first gear. And using the traction control management system, operators can easily adjust traction force to match jobsite conditions for efficiency in digging, stockpiling and loading applications.

Load-sensing hydraulics improve fuel efficiency by adjusting hydraulic flow to optimal levels based on working conditions.

Lift Large Loads With Ease

The DL200TC-7 and DL250TC-7 offer stronger, larger axles that help lift larger loads, and an optional additional counterweight is available for added lifting performance. The new models also feature wider radiator fin spacing and a standard reversible fan that clears dust, dirt and other large debris to help prevent clogging.

The wheel loader’s durable box frame and articulating design deliver enhanced rigidity and load distribution. A deeper front fender provides additional wheel coverage that helps protect the windshield, and the optional rear full fender improves stability.

High-Lift Configuration

A high-lift configuration is available for the two tool carriers, providing additional dump height for processing plants, scrap and recycling facilities and agricultural operations. Added dump height is particularly useful for tool carrier operators who regularly load trucks and need additional lift height to efficiently dump material into the truck. The optional high-lift configuration provides an additional 18 in. of dump height.

Standard Technology Features

Operators improve their productivity with standard technology features on the -7 Series tool carriers, like the telematics system. It makes it easy for owners to monitor their fleet and manage maintenance to reduce operating costs.

Using a smartphone, tablet or computer, owners can check machine location, operating hours, fuel usage, engine idle versus work time, error codes, engine and hydraulic oil temperature and various other data points.

An improved Load Isolation System boosts wheel loader stability while moving, which can reduce cycle times, increase productivity and boost fuel efficiency.

the past two decades. The Sioux Falls Regional Water Reclamation Plant is critical infrastructure, and we need to ensure it is well-positioned to meet the needs of our growing community for decades to come.”

An official groundbreaking took place in early May 2022, but the expansion has been a long time in the making.

“As our team likes to say, this project takes a marathon mentality. After years of preparation, the launch of this project intersected with the COVID-19 pandemic, which wreaked havoc in many ways, from the way our internal and external project teams communicated to supply chain issues and cost escalation. In the end, and to this day, it took determination and perseverance from our team to keep this project moving forward.”

Perry explained the improvements involve five main areas of impact, including headworks, aeration basins, chlorine contact basins, solids handling and electrical system

improvements.

“The improvements will increase the plant’s hydraulic ability from 21 mgd to 30 mgd flow. The peak flow during wet weather will be increased to a capacity of 60 mgd. The solids loading treatment capacity will also be increased from 51,200 pounds per day to 66,700 pounds per day removal.

“All this translates into increasing the plant capacity for regional service of approximately 295,000 people in the future, compared with a little more than 215,000 people today. The wastewater will be treated to the same quality level as in the past, but the facility will now be set up to convert to increased nutrient removal limits in the future, which will further increase the quality of the water discharged into the Big Sioux River.”

Perry said the community has been supportive of the project.

“Any time a municipality is taking on a construction project, particularly with this price tag, it’s important that we are

communicative and transparent. Overall, people understand the importance and necessity of this work.”

He added, “This project wouldn’t be possible without the countless hours and immense talent dedicated to it by our public works team, teams from across the city of Sioux Falls and our many contractors. Our core values are safety, teamwork, character and respect. I see each one of those values embodied in our team members as they’ve taken on this colossal project.

“On behalf of our team, we all feel this work is incredibly rewarding. The long days and any hurdles we face with this project will all be worth it to know we are creating something for our community that will outlive many of us. It’s rewarding in that sense to be part of something bigger than yourself.”

According to Dave Moran, project director, McCarthy Building Companies Inc. based in St. Louis, Mo., a number

ALL Offers Surplus, Used, Reconditioned Parts for Sale

The ALL Family of Companies has a reputation as a crane rental powerhouse. But in fact, it has always been much more.

Yes, renting its 3,600 pieces of equipment across 33 North American branches rightfully dominates the story, but ALL also is an authorized dealer of sales of new cranes from names like Kobelco, Skyjack and Maeda, and is a wellknown seller of ready-to-work used cranes from its own fleet.

Sales has always been part of the ALL story, not just rental.

That includes selling parts.

ALL’s newly appointed parts sales manager, Jordan Nessmith, is tasked with growing ALL’s sales of used, reconditioned and surplus parts from top manufacturers, straight from ALL’s own massive inventory of parts and attachments.

“We’re an organization that keeps on hand spare engines for every type of crane in our fleet. That tells you everything you need to know about how seriously we take parts,” said Nessmith.

ALL’s parts department works hand-in-hand with its service and maintenance department. ALL’s reputation for maintaining its fleet in likenew condition is well known.

“To anticipate every service need, we keep a lot of parts in stock so our service team has what it needs to keep machines in like-new condition,”

said Nessmith. “When a type of crane leaves our fleet because we’ve upgraded, we have all these parts left in stock for cranes we no longer own. Now, we’re making them available for sale.”

Buying parts from ALL comes with advantages over purchasing from a typical third-party seller, the company said.

“The institutional knowledge you get from buying from us can’t be matched,” said Nessmith. “ALL knows cranes inside and out, and we pass that know-how and expertise on to the parts-seeking customer. They’re never flying blind.”

Nessmith currently spends his time getting the word out about ALL’s surplus parts business. Ideal customers are numerous and include companies with smaller crane fleets, maritime/bargebased construction, bridge contractors, tree services and overseas companies that work with older cranes

“Export shipping is not a problem,” said Nessmith.

To get a taste of the parts ALL has to offer, Nessmith recommends starting with its dedicated parts website, craneparts.com. For questions about a specific part, or if users don’t see what they’re looking for on the website, they can contact the ALL branch in their region. Find a complete list of ALL branches at www.allcrane.com/find-a-branch.

NearlyAll New Iron Sports Tech to Prevent Downtime

software will be more than $2 trillion this year, much of it financed.

“Slower economic growth underlies the trends this year,” said Ralph Petta, ELFA president. “Equipment acquisition continues to drive supply chains across all U.S. manufacturing and service sectors.”

Though the association forecasts “sluggish growth” this year, it views as “a solid jumping-off point for 2023” the 12-percent annualized growth in capital spending last year.

“Rising interest rates, high inflation and other economic uncertainties are expected to weigh on investment,” ELFA reported.

The association predicts 4.2 percent growth in equipment and software investment this year. Tighter financial conditions are foreseen as well. “Interest-rate levels are expected to rise above 5 percent this year.”

That number has the potential to go higher as the federal government fights inflation.

“Even if rate increases slow down or pause later in the year, the Fed’s shrinking balance sheet will contribute to tighter financial conditions,” said ELFA.

Paying for Those Purchases

At 55 percent, the majority of equipment acquired will be financed, the association maintains.

“Protection from equipment obsolescence, tax advantages and cash-flow optimization will be the top drivers for end users to finance.”

As a result, contractors will turn to automation and technology to offset labor costs this year.

“Additional benefits will be increased economic productivity and downward pres-

sure on inflation in the long term,” said ELFA.

Supply-chain backlogs will ease up, opening doors for equipment acquisitions. Because those backlogs have returned to their historical averages, said ELFA, delivery delays or shortages will improve.

“A combination of cooling demand and improving public health have given suppliers a chance to catch up,” the association said. “In addition, global supply-chain disruptions have triggered a paradigm shift.”

Many large organizations are “near-shorting” or “re-shoring” elements of their supply chains, in fact. The slow-growth economy will have many categories of equipment thriving, said ELFA, as residual pandemic effects will spur demand.

Post-pandemic hybrid work arrangements will dictate the acquisition of office equipment, computers, software and communications technology. And the trending commitment by companies to cut greenhouse gases will grow demand for green projects. That means construction of wind turbines, solar energy systems, microgrids and battery storage facilities will grow.

The five-year distribution program for the legislation passed by Congress will boost demand for off-road equipment. Globally, an estimated $18 trillion of climate-focused equipment is forecast to be financed between now and 2030, according to ELFA.

“If you are thinking about developing or enhancing your fleet sustainability management strategy, this is the year,” said Tony Lourakis, of Fleet Complete.

“Working toward a greener fleet is something your competitors are most likely already looking into or have adopted,” added the telematics company CEO.

Technology Is King

The Association of Equipment Distributors (AED) has formed a trends list of its own. Construction fleets this year will be most affected by technology.

Online sales and rentals, vehicle electrification, connected job sites, parts and equipment rental in particular will be front and center.

“Whatever happens in the auto industry is coming to construction equipment dealerships,” said Garry Bartecki, Illini High Reach CFO, commenting on the growing trend in online sales of automobiles, which reached 30 percent of the market two years ago.

Back then, dealers said in a survey they believed it was likely that OEMS will implement a direct-to-consumer model in five years.

“They expect fully digital sales — including the actual purchase — for new equipment to increase from 7 percent to 29 percent,” noted the AED survey.

Digital rentals were expected to increase from 7 percent to 33 percent within that same timeframe.

“We definitely see things moving in this direction,” said Jefferson Yin, director of new business models of Volvo Construction Equipment.

The global off-highway electric vehicle (EV) market size is expected to reach $42 billion by 2030, according to AED. That growth will be driven by lower operating costs as well as improved technology and lower costs for batteries.

Verizon Connect found that only 17 percent of respondents to its 2023 Fleet Technology Trends Survey use EVs. The majority of those respondents said EVs were

only a small part of their fleet makeup.

“Amajor barrier to EV adoption for many is a lack of charging infrastructure,” reported Verizon Connect. “Even though [contractors] may have found EVs desirable, without charging stations along their routes it simply wasn’t feasible.”

However, the bipartisan infrastructure act has earmarked funds for a national EV charging infrastructure.

“It will take time for this infrastructure to be built out, but now is the time to start planning,” advised Verizon. “It’s important for fleets to take a thoughtful approach to EV adoption. Fleet technology can help.”

GPS fleet tracking software can help fleet managers determine which vehicles should be replaced with EVs. The technology can aid in developing an optimized EV charging strategy and comparing costs between EVs and other vehicles. The technology also can optimize routing as equipment owners and contractors add EVs to their fleets.

Steve Clegg, owner of business development firm Winsby Inc., believes the industry will see a switch to battery or hybrid machines.

“The amount of parts drops by about 90 percent, so if your operating costs for a skid steer were $20 an hour, that drops to $3 per hour,” he said.

Electric machines will cut the maintenance costs. “It’s a whole new ball game,” said Bartecki of Illini High Reach.

As a result, construction equipment dealerships will add new services as revenue sources. Support and servicing of batteries and providing services including recharging vehicles, tires, wear parts and repair are examples that Clegg cited.

The demand for construction of wind turbines, solar energy systems, microgrids and battery storage facilities will grow.

All new construction machinery is now equipped with downtime-prevention technology. Getting contractors on board with the technology is a challenge.

Crews Perform Excavation, Concrete Work for Water Plant

WATER from page 36

of tasks have already been finished.

“To date, we have completed the excavations for the new headworks building; A-Basin expansion; the four new final clarifiers; CCB expansion; and portions of the new switchgear building. Concrete has been placed at the lower level of headworks; portions of the slabs and walls have been placed; and A-basins and portions of the final clarifiers have been placed.”

Crews are currently working on the structural concrete at headworks; concrete for A-Basins 7 through 9; mechanical and structural work inA-Basin 6; yard piping for the influent and effluent of the A-Basins; underslab piping at the final clarifiers; structural concrete at CCB and demolition at the thickening building.

“We are still very early in the project, so many significant activities remain,” said Moran. “Through 2023, we will focus on yard piping, structural concrete andA-Basin 1-6. In 2024, the focus will be process piping, mechanical installation and general building trades.”

Moran noted one of the major issues on the project involves the upgrades of existing aeration basins, due to the structural and mechanical upgrades required.

“Out of the six existing basins, only one can be taken out of service at a time while flow into and out of the remaining basins must be maintained.”

Keeping everyone out of harm’s way is also a top concern.

“The safety of the plant staff, along with craft working on the project, is our highest priority. Working in the existing facility poses several challenges, including live electrical,

live process lines and potentially dangerous gasses.”

Rehabilitating the existing plant involves a great deal of planning.

“Due to improvements taking place across several different parts across the existing plant, several provisions must be made to facilitate flow around construction activities, which we refer to as Maintenance of Plant Operations [MOPOs]. While the job site has more than 40 MOPOs, some of the critical ones include temporary piping and structures to bypass the splitter structure/A-Basin Influent, the A-Basin effluent manhole and bypassing the CCB.”

Long overdue for an upgrade, the structure is in definite need of the repairs now being made.

“Overall, the plant staff has done a fantastic job maintaining the facility in the areas they can access,” said Moran. “We are still determining much of the plant condition, because it cannot be determined until basins are drained or demolition has been complete.”

Mass grading and structure excavation has already taken place for the bulk of the site, as well as foundation underdrain, plant drain and force main relocations. Roughly 220,000 cubic yards of dirt will be moved between excavation and backfill.

Equipment being used on the project ranges from skid steers to large excavators, including a Cat 352.

On several of the excavators and dozers, GPS machine controls are used to facilitate the speed and accuracy of mass grading operations.A65-ton rough-terrain and 90-ton roughterrain crane are currently on site, along with two tower cranes.

As for the effect of weather on construction, said Moran, “It has been an unseasonably cold and wet winter, which has impacted much of the concrete and underground work. The team has done a great job managing these challenges and continues to maintain the overall project schedule.”

The project is currently on track to be completed by 2025. Despite the many tasks that lie ahead, Moran is pleased to play a role in such an important undertaking.

“It’s extremely rewarding to be part of the team to increase the plant flow for today’s needs, along with creating solutions for future expansion. With several of our craft and staff members living in the Sioux Falls area, having a highly functioning treatment plant is important for all of us.”  CEG

Contractors Need to Monitor Factors That Impact Prices

To support the job site, nearly all new construction equipment machinery is now equipped with technology that prevents downtime, notes AED.

The challenge, according to the organization, has been getting equipment owners and contractors on board.

“The machines need to be able to talk to each other as they do in other industries,” said Ron Slee, managing director of Learning Without Scars.

This year, asset tracking emerged as the technology to see the highest percentage increase of new users, according to Verizon Connect. The number of respondents to the organization’s trends survey who are using the technology jumped to 29 percent this year.

“And 96 percent of those users found it beneficial,” reported Verizon Connect.

In addition to tracking off-road machinery location, GPS technology can provide valuable preventive maintenance data. It helps fleet managers and equipment owners meet productivity, utilization and security goals.

Survey respondents reported improvements in both equipment/trailer utilization and driver efficiency and productivity. Better equipment security and back-office staff pro-

ductivity were reported as well.

Drivers will use their mobile devices to pay at fueling and charging stations, predicted Tony Lourakas, of Fleet Complete.

“Digital transformation enables fleet managers to track driver vehicle inspections without paper,” said the telematics provider CEO. “Drivers can use assigned key fobs, RFID cards, barcodes, cameras or other authentication methods to increase productivity.”

“Try It Before You Buy It” Game

The upward path of the equipment rental market is expected to continue, according to the American Rental Association (ARA).

Construction equipment rental revenue was expected to surpass $41.6 billion last year. The notion of equipment-as-a-service, which transfers responsibility onto the manufacturer or dealer, is favored by contractors.

These customers like the freedom to focus on business. “It might involve an entire fleet to be provided for several years,” said AED.

There would at the same time be the potential to tie invoicing directly to utilization by the contractor or owner.

“Contractors use the machine to dig a hole. They are only interested in the hole, and they look at the equipment merely as an operating cost,” said Slee.

“One of the most positive aspects is the payment flexibility, since it’s usually linked to machine utilization,” said Ray Gallant, Volvo CE vice president of product management.

It Takes Total Commitment

Contractors will have to monitor other “wild-card” issues affecting equipment acquisition. Tightening credit, the federal debt-ceiling debate and energy prices could impact businesses.

But many in the construction sector are positive about the asset management side of things.

“This year will be full of new opportunities for fleet managers to drive greater efficiencies, increase fleet safety and reduce operating costs,” said Lourakas. “As businesses face interest-rate increases and the possibility of an economic recession, these benefits can help fleets realize cost savings and ROI benefits.”

In the end, fleet optimization and equipment acquisitions to guarantee that optimization come down to a team effort.

“It requires that the OEM, dealer and customer are aligned so the fleet performs accordingly and delivers the expected results,” said Gallant.  CEG

EMPShieldPlanstoBuild$1.9BFacilityinBurlington,Kan.

Gov. Laura Kelly announced Feb. 20 that EMP Shield, an industry leader in protecting electronic devices from destructive magnetic pulses, plans to invest $1.9 billion in a computer chip manufacturing facility in Burlington, Kan. The facility will create more than 1,200 jobs averaging $66,000 annually.

EMP Shield will build its facility on 300 acres in a secure campus located at Silicon Prairie Industrial Park. The company will be joined by six out-of-state suppliers, resulting in an additional 1,000 jobs created in Coffey County.

“Bringing economic prosperity to every corner of the state — particularly rural Kansas — has been a priority since my very first day in office,” Kelly said. “We achieve that with this project, creating thousands of high-paying jobs that don’t require a fouryear degree and proving that every Kansas community is ripe for investment and growth.”

EMPShield plans to have four production lines operating in approximately 235,000 sq. ft. of facilities in the new industrial park that will produce thousands of chips per week. Its suppliers will manufacture necessary components and prepare the final products for delivery.

“This high-tech advanced manufacturing project will provide lucrative career opportunities for hard-working Kansans,” Lt. Gov. and Secretary of Commerce David Toland said. “Our economic development strategy is designed to keep nurturing the roots of our young talent so they can remain here in Kansas.”

EMP Shield will leverage state support to apply for CHIPSAct funding to see its plans to fruition.

The project came together shortly after the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) Act was signed into law last August. The bipartisan legislation called for every aspect of computer chip production to be brought back to the United States — specifically into rural areas of the Midwest.Additional stipulations include private-public partnerships as well as the involvement of higher education institutions.

“Coffey County appears to really hit the

sweet spot for everything requested for CHIPS Act funding,” Tim Carty, EMP Shield founder and lead engineer said. “Everything is falling into place, and the state’s strong support hopefully gets us one step closer to a favorable federal response.”

EMP Shield is working with area partners such as Coffey County; Flint Hills Technical College;Allen County Community College; Pittsburg State University; the University of Kansas; Heartland Black Chamber of Commerce; Wichita Hispanic Chamber of Commerce; and Unified School Districts 243, 244 and 245.

“There are workforce development programs already in place that will enable high school graduates and those with two-year degrees to train up and get very high-paying jobs,” Carty said. “This will allow those who grow up here to stay in Kansas, enjoy our quality of life, and not have to go to San Francisco.”

Bus routes to transport workers from metropolitan areas will be established, and there will be purposeful diversity, equity and inclusion outreach.

“This next-generation technology project will help our community grow and make our country safer. That’s a win for everyone,” Carty said. 

American Concrete PavementAssoc. Releases White Paper

While at World of Concrete, the American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA) announced the release of a white paper, “Concrete Pavement’s Role in a Sustainable, Resilient Future,” which synthesizes research on concrete pavement’s contributions to economic, environmental and social sustainability.

As part of the organization’s role educating decision-makers who are involved in the placement and rehabilitation of roadway, highway and airfield pavements, the ACPAis providing the white paper to assist those decision-makers as they are challenged to meet ever-increasing levels of sustainability.

“‘Concrete Pavement’s Role in a Sustainable, Resilient Future’ provides an overview of sustainability and sustainability’s relationship to resilience. Because a system cannot be sustainable if it is not also resilient, pavements should be designed with a life cycle approach that contemplates pavement’s entire life span. Designing with life cycle in mind can help ensure pavements enhance all three categories of sustainability: economic, environmental, and social,” said Laura O’Neill Kaumo, president and CEO, ACPA.

“Concrete is a material well-positioned to

address the planet’s climate change considerations.”

The report summarizes concrete pavement’s role in sustainability, including:

1. The long life span of concrete pavement, which provides the greatest economic value over the long term for taxpayers and end users. Concrete can last 30 years or more before requiring a maintenance cycle.

2. Research supporting concrete pavement’s many use-phase environmental and societal benefits, including improved fuel efficiency, high albedo (which improves the

earth’s energy balance and urban heat island effect, both of which lead to cooling impacts and CO2 reduction) and CO2 absorption.

3. Examination of how the concrete pavement industry and others across the concrete value chain are working together to implement the PCA’s Roadmap to Carbon Neutrality, with a goal of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050. (Examples include reducing cement’s carbon footprint using blended cements and reducing concrete’s carbon footprint using performanceengineered mixtures.)

4. The importance of life-cycle thinking in addressing social sustainability, particularly concrete pavement’s long life (which not only provides a smooth, safe roadway for the traveling public but reduces the hazards associated with work zones throughout the life of the pavement); its ability to withstand, respond to, and recover rapidly after a disruptive event; and good performance with minimal traffic disruption due to maintenance.

Steve Friess, chairman of the board of ACPA said, “Installing long-life pavements is one very important way of improving sustainability. Another big contribution to sustainability, and one that I and my company have been personally involved in, is developing performance mixes to reduce cementitious content. As an industry, we’re seeing significant success with such mixes.”

Because millions of miles of pavements across the globe are placed or rehabilitated every year, the role of concrete pavement in sustainability cannot be understated. With its release of “Concrete Pavement’s Role in a Sustainable, Resilient Future,” the ACPA provides valuable guidance for road owners and other decision-makers as they weigh the many considerations involved in delivering sustainable infrastructure.

“Concrete is a material well-positioned to address the planet’s climate changeconsiderations.”

Benefits of Ground Penetrating Radar Technology in Paving for Contractors

When it comes to asphalt, measuring pavement density is key to building longer-lasting roads.

Paving contractors must ensure that the pavement is compacted enough to ensure long-term asphalt health. In addition, identifying the percentage of air voids in the overall placed pavement mix is the accepted measure of evaluating this key factor to the integrity of the roads. The current industry standard for measuring compaction and air voids are point-by-point techniques such as coring or using a nuclear density gauge, but up-and-coming Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology could provide a better alternative.

Trouble With Point-By-Point Techniques

Point-by-point technology is limited in terms of density testing. With these techniques, inspectors measure random sample locations of the pavement and extrapolate this data to the entire road. However, this technique does not cover a large area and could potentially miss problem areas.

As Kyle Hoegh of the Minnesota Department of Transportation explained, “You could be at a location that is well within passing density, then move just a few feet away on the pavement and observe a failing density, which does not make spot-check methods well-suited for getting a reliable assessment.”

Coring currently is the golden standard for assessing pavement health, but it has further issues. This destructive method tests for air voids at the cost of pavement integrity. Sometimes additional resources and road closures are needed to fill in these cored areas.

Besides being destructive, this method also is lacking because it cannot provide real-time data, but rather requires a lengthy and costly process of sending out the cores to be analyzed. Nuclear gauge testing, another point-by-point method, requires certificates for safety and operation, which can be cumbersome.

Benefits of Ground Penetrating Radar

While coring is destructive, ground penetrating radar is a non-destructive method for analyzing pavement.

“The technique of using dielectric constant to relate to asphalt density has been around since at least the 1990s… but up until recently, the technology wasn’t precise enough to be able to use it for deployment on actual asphalt pavement projects,” Hoegh said.

MnDOT Studies Uphold Value of GPR in Paving

In 2020, MnDOT joined a group of states and the Federal Highway Administration in creating a pooled fund to experiment with GPR technology to improve asphalt pavement density. MnDOT became the leader of this national pooled fund, focused specifically on deploying continuous asphalt pavement compaction technology.

Through this project, MnDOT collaborates with researchers and on-the-ground workers such as foremen and contractors in a unique and iterative process.

Currently, MnDOT is familiarizing contractors with the technology so they understand the information it provides and how it can assist with construction practices. Contractors

MnDOT’s field tests have demonstrated the efficiency of using GPR and getting real-time data on pavement density.

also provide valuable feedback in evaluating the protocols that are in development, with the ultimate goal of rolling out GPR as a quality assurance tool in Minnesota or recommending it for quality assurance nationally.

MnDOT, provides density assessments throughout the project as a trial in creating protocols for future work.

“There are many contractors already doing everything they can to try to get consistently good density and are looking for any sort of information that can help them continue to improve. They’ve been very receptive to trial data collection on their projects, and we’ve even had multiple contractors using the information from the GPR technology to improve their compaction operations,” Hoegh said.

The process thus far demonstrates the effectiveness of GPR in paving.

For example, a MnDOT team recently tested the technology on a highway echelon paving project. Two asphalt pavers were simultaneously paving both lanes of a two-lane highway, which allows for good compaction at the longitudinal joint, or the area between those two lanes, since the compaction occurs while both lanes were hot. However, the MnDOT team was able to use a density profiling system to identify that less than a foot away from the joint there was a problem.

They noted periodic lower densities along one side of the joint, for as long as 100 to 200 ft. stretches. The MnDOT team was then able to collaborate with the contractor in real time to brainstorm. The team identified what was causing the lower densities and made the necessary changes to ensure adequate pavement density.

GPR in Future of Paving

These MnDOT projects have demonstrated the potential of GPR technology. The advent of the use of intelligent construction technologies in day-to-day work is occurring at MnDOT and other partners. The continued expansion of these technologies could benefit other states and even countries as more and more information of the paving process becomes available.

Work to date shows that longer-lasting road integrity through improved density is on the horizon if this technology is adequately implemented. 

FleetWatcher, OnStation Partner for e-Ticketing Load Tracking Function

Earthwave has integrated its e-ticketing functionality with OnStation to allow users to pinpoint the exact station location where each load of asphalt is placed on a job site.

This new functionality automatically tracks the load from the time it is loaded at the asphalt plant, through its dumping into the paver on the job site.

The exact station location becomes a part of the digital eticket, with no operator intervention required. Operators and transportation agency officials can know precisely on a job site where a specific load of asphalt was laid, so that if a future problem arises, they can investigate other parameters around that location, including core tests, density, drainage or others, to determine the scope of the problem.

Specific station locations on each e-ticket replace the latitude/longitude indications which are commonly included now, but which are not readily referenceable on the job site.

This versatile functionality also is applicable for loads of aggregate or other materials commonly used on road construction job sites. Because it is automatically added to the eticket, the information is readily available to DOT and construction crew personnel, whether they reference it in a week or a year.

How It Works

When a FleetWatcher equipped truck enters a jobsite geozone, the vehicles latitude/longitude is sent to OnStation.

Zero Carbon Emission...

Specific station locations on each e-ticket replace the latitude/longitude indications, which are commonly included now, but are not readily referenceable on the job site.

After verifying that it is part of the project, OnStation return the station, alignment and offset where the load is deposited, which then becomes part of the e-ticket. The e-ticket then flows normally though to the DOT and construction crew personnel.

The process occurs automatically and replaces manual tracking systems, which are often inaccurate and unreliable. Additionally, this stationing information about each load is maintained in FleetWatcher indefinitely for future use. For more information, visit www.EarthwaveTech.com and www.OnStationApp.com. 

Volvo CE Partners With NAPAOn Its

‘TheRoadForward’IndustryInitiative

Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) has joined The Road Forward, an industry-wide initiative of the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) to achieve net zero carbon emission asphalt pavements.

Volvo CE is a longtime NAPA member, having joined in 1956. Chad Fluent, product planning manager — compaction, represents Volvo CE on NAPA’s associate member council.

The Volvo CE commitment to The Road Forward aligns with the company’s own sustainability framework, which includes reaching net zero emissions by 2040 using Science Based Targets (SBTi), rethinking existing production and consumption patterns working toward zero waste, and putting the health, safety and wellbeing of people at its core.

With 180 years of experience, Volvo

CE continues developing products and solutions with innovation and sustainability in mind — for example, building the first construction machine made of fossil-free steel.

“Our goal at Volvo is to help build the future we want to live in, and The Road Forward has a big part to play in that future,” said Fluent. “I’m thrilled we have partnered with NAPAto work toward these important goals.”

The Road Forward and Volvo CE also share the goal of engaging the entire asphalt community: employees, customers, suppliers, stakeholders and decision makers. NAPA welcomes Volvo’s commitment to The Road Forward and to helping the asphalt pavement industry advance toward net zero emission asphalt pavements.

In supporting The Road Forward, Volvo CE is providing industry leadership on climate action. Their support

will help fund ongoing research and education to aid the entire U.S. asphalt industry in reaching net zero carbon emission asphalt production and construction by 2050.

“Having committed stakeholders across the asphalt pavement industry, including equipment manufacturers like Volvo Construction Equipment, is critical to achieve our net zero goals,” said NAPAPresident and CEOAudrey Copeland. “Support from Volvo CE propels our vision for the future: sustainable communities and commerce, connected by net zero carbon asphalt pavements.”

New opportunities for NAPA member companies to join The Road Forward will become available in February.

Total Reconstruction Under Way On Mound Road Project

MOUND from page 8

Sarmiento said the north segment (15 ½ Mile Road to M59) outside two lanes are complete.

“Crews are working on the inside two lanes, including crossovers. North segment watermain, sanitary and storm sewer improvements are close to completion.The contractor began working on the south segment I-696 to 15 ½ Mile Road to install temporary widening within the median lanes of northbound and southbound Mound, including storm sewer and watermain improvements.”

Among the tasks remaining are crossover reconstruction; traffic signal infrastructure; ITS infrastructure; permanent pavementmarkings;permanenttrafficsigns;restoration;and miscellaneous sidewalk on the north segment.

Sarmiento said the most time-consuming task for crews involves paving concrete.

“This is due to the extensive material and labor that go into the operation. Once the concrete is paved out, it takes roughly an additional five days to achieve the required strength prior to opening it up to traffic.”

Site work has been busy, with contractors performing various tasks from I-696 to M-59.

The existing pavement and underlying base material was cut down 27 in. below the proposed top of pavement grade to construct the new pavement section. If underlying soil conditions were poor, this material was undercut and replaced with stone. The cross section of the proposed Mound Road pavement consists of 16 in. of open graded drainage course with 11 in. of concrete.

Demo was required for all existing pavement and infrastructure that is to be replaced or improved, including existing storm sewer, traffic signal/ITS conduit, etc.Additionally, portions of the Mound Road bridges over the Plum Brook Creek were torn down for widening of the bridges to accommodate the fourth lane.

holes, water main pipe, concrete, reinforcement steel, topsoil, seed, mast arms and traffic signals.

Sarmiento said it’s truly rewarding to work on a project that will serve so many for years to come.

“It means a lot. It’s always great to see a project through its entire life cycle, from concept to construction. Once motorists and pedestrians are able to drive and enjoy the finished corridor, I am hopeful their everyday commute or trip will be more enjoyable.”  CEG

The multi-million-dollar undertaking will reportedly strengthen connectivity by using sophisticated design and smart technology to build a modern, multimodal stretch of roadway.

Heavy machinery being used on the project includes bulldozers, excavators, rollers, dump trucks, a trimming machine, concrete paving machine, backhoes and survey equipment. Materials include aggregate stone, geotextile liner, underdrain pipe, storm sewer pipe, storm sewer man-

A total of $98 million in federal funds was awarded to the county from the USDOT. The grant required that all funds be spent, and the project be completed by the end of 2024.

O’Hare InternationalAirport to Receive $50M in Grants

Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot announced Feb. 27 that O’Hare International Airport will receive $50M in Airport Terminal Program grant funds from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law — the largest such grant thisyearforanyairportinAmerica—which will upgrade customer amenities, improve security screening and expand accessibility for passengers with disabilities at Terminal 3.

“O’Hare is one of the busiest airports in the world, with millions of travelers passing through every year,” said Lightfoot. “This investment is critical for improving accessibility, safety and energy efficiency at Terminal 3, and it complements the CDA’s ongoing efforts to modernize and expand O’Hare. Due to the Biden-Harris Administration’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, we will be better equipped to meet the rebounding travel demand and ensure our residents and visitors have one of the best passenger experiences in the world.”

Planned upgrades at Terminal 3 that will be financed by this federal grant include eligible work related to:

• Reconfiguration of TSA checkpoint, providing space for modern and more efficient screening equipment;

• An expanded passenger corridor

between Concourse K and Concourse L, tripling the current corridor’s width;

• Expansion of the holdroom space at Gates K1 and L2A, improving the passenger experience;

• Approximately 10,000 sq. ft. of new concessions and amenity spaces;

• Upgrades to the terminal’s baggage facilities and systems;

• Renovated restrooms and a new family restroom; and

• Other renovations of the terminal’s interior and exterior structures and systems, which will improve overall energy efficiency.

“Terminal 3 is an iconic piece of Chicago infrastructure that must remain a key part of the nation’s aviation system for decades to come,” said Jamie. L. Rhee, commissioner of the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA), which owns and operates both O’Hare and Midway international airports.

The estimated $200 million project at Terminal 3 is a component of O’Hare 21, Chicago’s vision for a 21st century airport. The balance of the Terminal 3 upgrade will be paid for by previously allocated federal funds and airline rates and charges. Construction is scheduled to begin this summerandwillbeundertakeninphasestomin-

imize disruption to terminal operations during construction, with an anticipated completion date of 2025.

“Chicago O’Hare International Airport is an important hub in American’s global network and we are thrilled that today’s announcement includes much-needed improvements to Terminal 3,” said Nate Gatten, American Airlines’ chief government affairs officer. “This project will enhance the travel experience for our loyal customers who choose to fly to and from ORD, as well as those connecting from throughout the world.”

A key component of the grant request is the CDA’s commitment to employment, education, and training opportunities for individuals from historically disadvantaged communities. This includes the O’Hare Bid and Resource Center, which will partner with local community-based organizations to offer resources in disinvested Chicago communities, hosting career expos and establishing an internship partnership with Chicago Public Schools (CPS).

Additional O’Hare 21 construction work continues to progress. In January, Mayor Lightfoot formally opened the newly renovated and expanded Terminal 5, which includes 10 new gates, expanded dining and

retail locations and a new Delta Sky Club lounge. Construction work also continues on a new, six-story parking garage for Terminal 5, which will more than double the amount of available parking at the terminal and expand capacity to offer a mix of short- and long-term parking options, like those available at the airport's main terminals. The Terminal 5 development was named “Public Project of the Year” by the Hispanic AmericanConstructionIndustryAssociation (HACIA), which noted the CDA’s “out-ofthe-box thinking” on diversity and inclusion for the project.

And last fall, the CDA received final approval from the FAAto proceed with construction on the central component of O’Hare 21, the Terminal Area Plan. This includes construction of two new satellite concourses and the new O’Hare Global Terminal, which will ultimately replace Terminal 2, the airport’s oldest facility. In cooperation with its airline partners, the CDA continues to examine federal funding for all elements of the O’Hare 21 capital plan.

Preparatory work on the satellite concourses is scheduled to begin this spring.

ConExpo-Con/AGG Salutes Women Who Work in Construction; Highlights Events

When ConExpo-Con/AGG unveiled the world’s largest 3Dprinted statue of a woman who works in construction during the 2020 show, the show was already a leader in recognizing the growing role women play in the construction industry and encouraging more women to explore construction careers.

With Women in Construction

Week from March 5-11, the largest trade show in North America is highlighting the events at ConExpoCon/AGG that feature women working in the construction industry.

“As North America’s largest construction show, we recognize the important and growing role women play in our industry, and ConExpo-Con/AGG has invited a number of influential women to share their experiences working in construction,” said ConExpo-Con/AGG Show Director Dana Wuesthoff.

“There’s a big need for more people to enter the construction trades and industry. These are jobs that pay solid, living wages without the need to take on large amounts of debt to enter, and we want to encourage more women to explore these opportunities.”

This year, Alexandra Smith, known as “Al the Little Operator,” will host a meetup in the new ConExpoCon/AGG Community Zone entitled “Collaborating with Women in Construction,” March 14, at 2:30 p.m.

Smith, who has been promoting women in construction for years, most recently on an episode of the ConExpoCon/AGG Podcast, grew up in Haverhill, Mass., and has been working with her father in the septic system business since she was 14 years old. She thought her dream was to become a congresswoman, but ultimately realized she was happiest working with the dirt.

She has been running equipment full-time for the past five years and couldn’t be happier as she pursues a career in septic design.

Additionally, Missy Guerrero Scherber will be joined in the Community Zone by Kayti Bjorklund-Strandlund and Ry Bostrom for a discussion called “Changing Culture with Professional Development: How a School Teacher Duo is Changing the Industry as We Know It” on March 16 from 12 p.m.

When two educators left the public school system and repurposed themselves in the world of construction, they were shocked with the dated approaches of team development and the ugly construction stigma that came with the industry. To battle the stigma, the two are implementing personal and professional development (just like in the world of education!) with their team at DW Companies.

Additional Education, Community Zone Sessions

• Women in the Workforce: Recruit, Retain, and Promote (Rachel Quam, Ashly Rieman, Latrell Cates, Maty Katherine Harbin, Shawn Boyce) — West Hall. Diversity and inclusion are key to future sustainability as an industry. This session will discuss management efforts to recruit, retain and promote women in the industry. A panel of indus-

try leaders will address the importance of attracting qualified women and addressing the needs of women to keep them in the industry while developing a culture of inclusivity.

• Bold Leadership for Women (Kristina Mahler McMillan, Alicia Brentzel, Amanda Kurt, Katherine Freeman, Stephanie Scott) — West Hall. A panel discussion including female business leaders across the industry discussing real-life experiences and advice for how to not just make it in a male-dominated industry, but how to discover your own voice and power.

• Ask The Influencers — Panel Discussion & Meetup With the Most Popular Construction Minds (Missy Guerrero Scherber, James Starbuck, Katie Kelleher, Matthew Stanley, Taylor White) — West Hall. Featuring five of some of the most well-known industry personalities on social media, this 2-hour session will allow you to understand how they got to where they are and the trends they see that will impact the industry going forward. They will provide tips and tricks on how to better your social media skills, build relationships online, and much more. This is a panel discussion so be sure to come and ask them questions.

• Viva Las Asphalt Mixer (Hosted by Women of Asphalt, NationalAsphalt PavementAssoc.) — Silver Lot 3, near Las Vegas Monorail Entrance. Join Viva Las Asphalt for a thrilling collaboration between WofAand NAPA’sAssociate Member Council. This one-of-a-kind opportunity will connect like-minded individuals from across the asphalt industry. Jam with their special guest appearance from the King of Rock and Roll himself. To attend, be sure to pick up your complimentary wristband available at the WofA(GL-12596) and NAPA (GL-20707) booths while they last.

AMERICAN PUBLIC WORKS ASSOCIATION

NORTH AMERICAN SNOW CONFERENCE 2023

Dates: April 16 – 19, 2023

Place: CHI Health Center 455 N. 10th Street, Omaha, NE 68102

The 2023 Snow Conference has it all, from expert-led snow and ice education sessions to an exhibit floor full of vendors excited to show you the latest winter maintenance solutions for your community. Make plans now to join your peers and take advantage of everything the Snow Conference has to offer.

Education Program

APWA’s goal for the Snow Education Program is to create an event where you can make meaningful connections and discover and produce game-changing insights and solutions.

APWA knows the challenges and opportunities facing public works are unprecedented. The speed of social and technological change places an enormous responsibility on you to proactively provide and maintain the infrastructure needed for your community’s growth and well-being. You need a Snow experience that will help you gain new perspectives, exchange ideas, and participate in important and thought-provoking discussions on the shape of things to come. We need you to arrive in Omaha prepared to ask the essential questions and share your views and ideas. Start thinking now about the following:

. What challenges are you facing that a solution seems out of reach?

. What leadership qualities, skills, and resources are needed to lead and manage the modern Public Works Department?

. What innovations and solutions have your agency implemented that would help the whole profession provide better Public Works services?

. What are your blind spots? Are you open to fresh and broader perspectives?

. How should we be providing Public Works infrastructure and services that are resilient and sustainable?

Don’t stop here – what else is on your mind? We’re counting on you to show up eager to ask questions and to join your colleagues in imagining the future your communities deserve?

APWA is committed to helping you learn from each other, and the 2023 Snow Conference Education Program will include opportunities for you to make intentional connections.
