U.S. Military to Build New $30.5M Lab at Dover AFB Dover Air Force Base (DAFB) in Delaware is set to become the new site of the Armed Services Whole Blood Processing Laboratory-East (ASWBPL-East) facility. Delaware Business Times reported Jan. 9 that the $30.5 million project will replace the 1955 building currently at the base, expand its square footage and make refrigerator and freezer upgrades to store blood properly and safely. The funding for the new lab was a part of the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which received bipartisan support in Congress and was signed into law by President Biden on Dec. 22. In total, the NDAA authorized a record $886 billion in annual military spending, along with a 5.2 percent pay raise for military servicemembers and the Department of Defense’s (DOD) civilian workforce. “Dover Air Force Base has long been a premier military installation bolstering the readiness of our armed forces,” said U.S. Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester, D-Del. “Today, with the funding authorization of the Armed Services Whole Blood Processing Laboratory-East facility, DAFB will continue to lead the way in supporting the mission of those in uniform.” By constructing the new ASWBPL in

The funding for the new lab was a part of the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which received bipartisan support in Congress and was signed into law by President Biden on Dec. 22. Delaware, it will replace the current East Coast facility at Joint Base McGuire-DixLakehurst in New Jersey. It will become one of only two such centers maintained by DOD in the United States; the other is located at Travis Air Force Base in California. Captain Leslie Riggs, division chief of the Armed Services Blood Program (ASBP), told Delaware Business Times that DAFB was selected for the new facility due to its military flight line. “I am looking forward to the capabilities this is going to bring us,” he said. “As facilities age, and as requirements have grown

over the years, you need a little more square footage and … more refrigerators and freezers.” Riggs estimates the new facility will break ground in 2026. Lab to Supply Blood for Domestic, Overseas Needs From its new home at Dover Air Force Base, the ASWBPL-East facility will be the primary processing and distribution center for blood products to support the Central, European, and Africa combatant commands in addition to military medical treatment

facilities and Veterans Affairs medical centers. “The 2024 NDAA takes meaningful steps to ensure America’s armed forces are prepared for a changing world, and it supports our national security, servicemembers, and veterans,” Delaware’s U.S. Sen. Chris Coons said in a statement. “I am particularly proud of the investment in a new ASWBPLEast facility at Dover Air Force Base, which will make it easier and more efficient for the blood products that travel through Delaware to reach servicemembers around the world.” Established in 1952, the ASBP functions like the American Red Cross and has more than 150 locations. As the U.S. military’s official blood program, it provides blood products for deployment on the front lines and overseas operations, supplies lifesaving transfusion products on the battlefield and in treatment off the frontlines. Additionally, as a joint operation among the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, the ASBP: • Provides quality blood products for service members, veterans and their families in both peace and war. • Collects, processes, stores, distributes and transfuses blood worldwide. • Works closely with its civilian counterparts in times of need. 

Newark Liberty Airport to Build $570M Cable Car System After several years of fits and starts, plans to construct a new AirTrain system for Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey are moving ahead — with a twist. The almost 28-year-old monorail system that will soon exceed its useful life is to be replaced with a modern cable car system, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey announced in December. “It’s a very reliable system based on the centralized propulsion design and proven service in severe weather,” explained James Heitmann, the Port Authority’s chief operating officer. “It also brings superior customer experience by way of enhanced dynamic digital signage.” Plus, it is much cheaper than original estimates of $2 billion or more to replace the system, NorthJersey.com reported Dec. 28. The contract awarded to Austrian-based Doppelmayr Group was for $570 million to design and construct the 2.5-mi. automated people-mover system through Newark Liberty, which has a new Terminal A, a new Terminal B in the design phase, and a comprehensive plan being developed for a renovation of the entire complex in Newark and Elizabeth. Additionally, the contract between the

Port Authority and Doppelmayr includes options, at a value of $385 million in net present value, to operate and maintain the system for 20 years. After 2025 Start, Construction to Last Four Years Plans call for major construction on the cable car system to begin in the spring of 2025, with the people mover likely becoming fully operational in 2029. It will be built next to the current AirTrain at the northern New Jersey airport, which will stay in operation throughout construction. Doppelmayr is known for building cable systems for gondolas, ski lifts and airport trams, including BART’s airport connector in San Francisco and the DART connector to London’s Luton Airport. The proposed Newark system is expected to eclipse the customer use at both of those airports. Currently, Newark’s AirTrain shuttles an average of 33,000 passengers a day. In contrast, the Doppelmayr system in San Francisco transported an average of 3,300 people a day after its first year in service, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

On its opening day, the new Newark system will be designed to carry double the capacity of the current system using five-car trains and over time will be capable of expanding by 40 percent. High Costs Led to More Innovative Design Getting to this point, however, has been a challenge, according to NorthJersey.com. Gov. Phil Murphy called on the Port

Authority to replace Newark’s AirTrain in 2019 because of its age and frequent breakdowns, saying it would cost the bistate agency $400 million over a decade to keep repairing it. At that time, the replacement effort was estimated to cost around $2 billion. When the bids came back in 2022, Port Authority board Chair Kevin O’Toole said, “The numbers came back, for a variety of reasons, higher than anticipated. We’re working internally to see what we can do to make it a more competitive bid.” In addition to seeking a more innovative approach, the agency opted to break up the bid package and spread out the risk. The new request for proposal was issued earlier this year. Three firms were short-listed, and ultimately Doppelmayr was chosen for providing the “best value” and because it earned “highest technical rating,” Heitmann said. O’Toole thanked his employees for their hard work in getting the proposal to this point. “This is a huge deal for the port, [and a] huge deal for the AirTrain project that has been hanging out there for a while,” he said. 

Plans call for major construction on the cable car system to begin in the spring of 2025, with the people mover likely becoming fully operational in 2029.

USPS Spectacular Bridges Stamps Highlight Construction By Ruksana Hussain CEG CORRESPONDENT

The United States Postal Service (USPS) has shown a spotlight on the architectural design and engineering feats of some of the spectacular bridges that have been connecting people and places across the country for years with the release of four new Presorted First-Class Mail stamps. Ethel Kessler, an art director of USPS, used existing photographs to design these stamps, which include the multispan steel through arch Arrigoni Bridge connecting the Connecticut municipalities of Middletown and Portland; the S-curved cable-stayed Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge between Council Bluffs, Iowa, and Omaha, Neb.; the steel truss Skydance Bridge topped by a public sculpture in Oklahoma City; and the basket-handle twin arch Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge connecting Bettendorf, Iowa, and Moline, Ill. The bridges were completed between 1938 and 2022 and chosen for being important landmarks in their communities. “We’re always looking for imaging or sets of stamps that can work. My first job was for an architectural firm and so I am not just sensitive to but enamoured with construction architecture and grand structures,” said Kessler. “Nobody gave me the assignment of doing bridges, it’s been something that I’ve had in my ‘way back burner folder’ for a long time and then it seemed like there was a need for this calibre of stamp.” Kessler, who has worked at the USPS for more than 25 years, presented 10 different images from a range of places in the country, each bridge offering something unique. Four were finalized. Presorted First-Class Mail stamps are used for bulk business mailers

and must be used with a permit. They’re only sold in self-adhesive rolls of 3,000 and 10,000. Arrigoni Bridge The Arrigoni Bridge connecting Middletown and Portland, Conn., (photographed by Joe Gowac) also is known as the Portland Bridge. The 1,200-ft.-long steel through arch bridge carries Routes 66 and 17 across the Connecticut River. It features two 600-ft. steel arches which have the longest span length of any bridge in that state. At $3.5 million, it was the most expensive bridge in the state when it opened in 1938. The bridge underwent safety and pedestrian improvements from 2020 to 2022, which involved new sidewalks; improvements to bridge approaches on both sides; replacing of the bridge deck and bearings; painting; steel and concrete repairs; and other structural upgrades to increase the bridge’s lifespan. Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge The Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge (photographed by Kyle Henderson) is a 3,000-ft.long, S-curved bridge — a $22 million project which opened late in 2008. It is one of the longest pedestrian bridges ever to be built, allowing travel over the Missouri River. Part of former U.S. Sen. Bob Kerrey’s “Back-tothe-River” efforts, it connects the Port of Omaha’s Miller Landing to One Renaissance Center in Council Bluffs. The cable-stayed bridge looks like giant sails, standing at 52 ft. above the river and due to the 200-ft.-high single-tower pylons on either side. Dramatic lighting only adds to the visual appeal. The bridge deck has an unobstructed width of 15-ft. over the entire length of the bridge.

Skydance Bridge The Skydance Bridge in Oklahoma City (photographed by Christina Woods) is inspired by Oklahoma’s state bird, the scissor-tailed flycatcher, and soars over Interstate 40. This is a 380-ft.-long pedestrian bridge with a 197-ft.-tall sculpture. The bridge opened in 2012, connects upper and lower Scissortail Park, and cost $5.8 million. It was named as one of the nation’s top 50 public arts projects by The Oklahoman at that time. The design was the winning entry in a national competition hosted by Oklahoma City. It has a steel hybrid structure with a vertically cantilevered tricord truss and simple span truss bridge as well as durable and recycled construction materials. “It is an honor for Oklahoma City, and Skydance Bridge, to be represented on this historic U.S. postage stamp commemorating this iconic landmark,” said Shannon Cox, Public Works Public Information Officer. Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge The $1 billion basket-handle twin arch Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge connecting Bettendorf, Iowa, and Moline, Ill., (photographed by Miller + Miller Architectural Photography) began construction in 2017 and opened to traffic in 2021. The gateway to the Quad Cities region on the I-74 corridor spans 800 ft., 6 mi. long and provides four lanes in each direction to address growing traffic concerns in the area. The final bridge design was completed by leading bridge engineering firm Modjeski and Masters. The westbound span was announced a winner in the major span category at the 2022 Prize Bridge Awards by The American Institute of Steel Construction and

the National Steel Bridge Alliance. Kessler found the images she worked with and works on Adobe Creative Suite for design. She has, in fact, maintained a folder titled Bridges with samples in it for at least 15 years now. “One of the first stamps that I worked on was for Frederick Law Olmstead who is the father of landscape architecture and designed Central Park. I had worked for an architectural firm and so I had the sensitivity to that subject and before I started doing stamps, I had a design firm that did work for a lot of architecture construction and landscape architecture firms so it’s right up my alley.” Four art directors meet monthly with the staff of the stamp staff division (in addition to others involved in visual research, text writing, photo assistance, etc.) presenting the different projects they’re working on. The decision on the number of designs to be released happens then. Suggestions from the public are considered but they are advised to do so at least three years out because it takes quite a while to get through legal clearance for many things especially stamps featuring people but sometimes stamps featuring previously used art. A significant legal process follows in order to get images and rights to use those images. The Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee (CSAC), appointed by the Postmaster General, approves any ideas coming in from the public or the art directors. They determine subjects based on specific stamp selection criteria. Names of current members of the advisory committee as well as detailed information on the process is available on the USPS website.

New $300M Pa. State Police Academy Begins Construction A new and ultramodern Pennsylvania State Police Academy began construction in Hershey Dec. 18 following a ceremonial groundbreaking attended by Gov. Josh Shapiro and other state and law enforcement officials. When complete in 2028, the estimated $300 million facility will be the most comprehensive update to the Academy since it opened in 1960 and will help the Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) and municipal police departments across the state to remain well-staffed, trained, funded, and equipped, according to a news release from the governor’s office. Shapiro, standing alongside Lieutenant Governor Austin Davis, Department of General Services (DGS) Secretary Reggie McNeil, and PSP Commissioner Col. Christopher Paris, also unveiled design plans for the new world-class law enforcement training facility. The modernization project will replace outdated infrastructure with multiple new buildings totaling 366,000 sq. ft. on the 146acre site in Hershey, including a five-story Marquee Building with modern classrooms and administrative offices, 300 individual cadet dormitories, a 500-seat auditorium and a spacious cafeteria. In addition, the new PSP facility will

include a physical education building with two gymnasiums, a training tank and a weight room to provide space and equipment for self-defense training, water safety courses and fitness conditioning. Indoor and outdoor tactical villages will host simulations of high-risk incidents such as active shooters, hostage situations and barricaded subjects. “The new Pennsylvania State Police Academy will be a state-of-the-art facility second to none in [this] country that will give cadets hands-on learning opportunities that will better prepare them for service in our communities,” Shapiro said in the statement released by his office. “I firmly believe that every Pennsylvanian deserves to be safe and feel safe in their community. “Policing is a noble profession, and good people want to come here to this academy and train for a career in public service,” he continued. “It’s on us to invest in them and give them the resources they need to succeed.” Additional facilities at the new PSP Academy will include a new headquarters for the Bureau of Emergency and Special Operations, horse stables for the Mounted Unit, a central supply warehouse and a vehicle garage at the Pennsylvania State Police Historical, Educational and Memorial

2000 Eco Park Blvd. South Mills, NC 27976

Center. “I want to thank all of the cadets for your selfless commitment to keeping our communities safe,” noted Lt. Gov. Davis. “For the folks that live in rural communities, the state police are their police department, and many Pennsylvanians come from those small towns and townships to attend this academy because they are inspired by the state troopers they meet in their communities.” Davis added “our state troopers deserve the best training and the best facilities to ensure they are prepared for what lies ahead. We can never thank them enough for their service to the Commonwealth.” Modern PSP Academy Long Overdue The existing Academy facilities will remain operational throughout the next several years of construction, according to the governor’s office, which will include the demolition of several existing structures. To build the new PSP Academy, the Pennsylvania DGS awarded a $205.5 million general construction contract to Wohlsen Construction Co. in Lancaster; a $37 million HVAC contract to Midline Mechanical LLC, in Ephrata; a $42.8 million electrical contract to Glenmoore, Pa.based Philips Brothers Electrical Contractors Contact Bryan Smith bsmith@secva.net

Inc.; and a $20.1 million plumbing contract to Jay R. Reynolds Inc., in Willow Street, Pa. “Updated facilities and amenities are long overdue here at the Pennsylvania State Police Academy, the nation’s premier law enforcement training facility,” said the PSP’s Paris. “The new Academy will support the highest level of instruction for cadets, troopers, and our law enforcement partners.” Next year marks 100 years of training law enforcement recruits in Hershey. The Pennsylvania State Highway Patrol secured the use of the former Hershey Inn, on Cocoa Avenue, from Milton S. Hershey and began training there in 1924. The Highway Patrol later merged with the PSP in 1937 and continued training at that site until 1960. In the 2023-24 Pennsylvania budget, Shapiro secured new funding for four PSP cadet classes to train 384 new troopers, filling staffing gaps and ensuring that the PSP force is well-funded and well-trained. In August, he and Paris announced that the PSP would remove the college credit requirement for Pennsylvanians who want to serve as state troopers to expand opportunities for individuals seeking careers in state law enforcement. In the two months following that announcement, the PSP saw a 258 percent increase in applicants taking the test to become state troopers. 

BABA Policy Has Been in Existence Since Late 1970s POLICY from page 1

That has the transportation industry nervous for the future. Last year’s National Highway Construction Cost Index (NHCCI) shows it reached “a new all-time high” in the first quarter of 2023. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) reported an increase of 2.7 percent from the last quarter of 2022. During the 2.5-year span, second quarter 2022 grew faster than any other period, at 11.9 percent. BTS also noted that highway construction costs jumped in the last 9 of 10 quarters through the first quarter of 2023. “Over the 10 quarters, highway construction costs grew 53.8 percent,” reported the federal bureau. Double-Edged Sword The Biden administration has heavily campaigned the Buy America Act (BABA) with a goal of growing the policy into new areas. A proposed new rulemaking project with a goal of applying BABA to manufactured products is scheduled to be published in April. “Until the proposal is published, we cannot gauge likely impacts,” said Marc Scribner, transportation policy analyst of think tank Reason Foundation. “If the rule is expansive in scope, it is likely to impose significant new construction costs on state departments of transportation.” Scribner said the fed’s eagerness to leverage BABA’s expansion is “especially unfortunate” for state transportation agencies. States “have seen highway construction costs increase by 50 percent over the past two years.” Congress imposed BABA procurement requirements for federally funded state highway projects during the Carter administration. The 1978 Surface Transportation Assistance Act made the use of domestic steel, iron and manufactured products mandatory for federally funded projects. A general waiver was applied back then to products and materials, other than structural steel, used in highway construction. Scribner said in 1983 Congress find-tuned BABA requirements and maintained the general waiver for manufactured products. “In doing so, FHWA agreed that it was ‘very difficult to identify the various materials and then trace their origin’ in complex manufactured products,” he said. The BABA waiver for manufactured products has held its place on the federal policy books since then. But labor unions and manufacturers both have opposed the general waiver all this time, citing protectionist issues. According to Scribner, the anti-trade

lobby scored a significant win with IIJA, which included the BABA. “BABA expressed a general policy preference against any ‘waiver … not limited to the use of specific products for use in a specific project.’” The Biden administration has applauded the $92 million increase in highway spending that was a major chunk of IIJA. “Unfortunately, it is increasingly likely that inflation will wipe out the entirety of that funding increase,” believes Scribner. “New Buy America requirements on manufactured products will make this problem even worse.” He notes the federal Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) has the impacts of BABA on FHWA projects listed as “undetermined.” Scribner believes this suggests the final rule will determine where annual costs land on the status scale. It’s a matter of whether costs reach $100 million, considered “major” status, or $200 million, “significant” status. “FHWA could choose to combine any narrowing or repeal of the general waiver with a more robust and permissive product-specific waiver process.” Scribner maintains that policymakers need to understand that in

the “real world of budget constraints,” cost increases translate to less work. “Federally mandated cost increases necessarily translate to fewer transportation projects and reduced benefits for Americans,” he said. “The best option would be for Congress to reconsider BABA and instead codify a general manufactured products waiver.” This would reduce uncertainty and avoid cost increases associated with the “significant” interpretation of BABA’s manufactured products application, he said.

Transportation construction inflation has risen by 50 percent over the last two years.

If BABA’s domestic-sourcing policies expand further, it’s likely to impose significant new construction costs on states.

Industry’s Perspective As an example of the tenuous situation, Washington State finds its transportation construction activity hamstrung by construction inflation. WSDOT advertised a Seattle bridge project with a cost of just more than $800 million. The agency received only two bids, and the lowest was approximately $1.3 billion. “Such a massive overshoot of the estimated price tag is cause for concern to lawmakers on its own,” wrote David Kroman of the Seattle Times. In July, the state awarded a contract for work on I-405 toll lanes that was $230 million over its estimated price. And a contract for related work on Highway 167 was 40 percent over the estimation. The price to convert three ferries to hybrid-electric went up by $30 million, or 25 percent, according to the Times. The situation has state lawmakers concerned. Washington is on a “15-year sprint” to build out its transportation network. “It makes it tough to do all of the projects we’ve voted on to pass and to do,” Sen. Curtis King said. “It makes it tough to meet those promises.” Several factors are at play, including material costs, supply-chain delays — and inflation. “But WSDOT has raised particular alarm about a trend noticed over the last year and a half: declining competition for large designbuild contracts,” wrote Kroman. As recently as 2021, the state averaged more than six bids per project. So far in 2023, that number has dropped to around 2.5, he noted. “It’s certainly a concerning trend because we have a lot of design builds coming up in the next couple of years,” said Chris Christopher, WSDOT. see POLICY page 40

LICA to Host Its First Water Management Forum at St. Joseph’s College in Ind. National LICA is set to host a groundbreaking event that will reshape the water management landscape. The inaugural LICA Water Management Forum will take place at the historic St. Joseph’s College in Rensselaer, Ind., on June 13 and 14, 2024, bringing together water management professionals, contractors, farmers, government officials and educators. Jerry Biuso Sr., CEO of LICA, has long aspired to organize a comprehensive drainage conference. The perfect venue proved elusive until May when a meeting with St. Joseph’s College, recommended by VP Tony Cain, unveiled the picturesque campus as an ideal space for the LICA Water Management Forum. This two-day forum offers a comprehensive lineup, including seminars, equipment demonstrations, indoor and outdoor exhibits, an OSHA 10-hour course, first aid training, a heavy equipment mobile simulator donated

by ElectriCom of Paoli, Ind., an Introduction to Heavy Construction Equipment course for veterans and high school students, and a golf outing. The program is tailored to the interests and needs of current and future water management professionals, ensuring exploration of the latest advancements and cutting-edge technologies. A key feature is the extensive educational component, with leading university educators in agriculture sharing insights. The Agricultural Drainage Management Coalition (ADMC) also will bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, amplifying the impact of the forum and broadening its reach. Abundant networking opportunities create a platform for professionals from across North America to connect, collaborate and build partnerships. To encourage broad participation, complimentary booth space has been allocated to each LICA state chapter. Additionally, LICA has extended an

invitation to its Canadian counterpart, the Land Improvement Contractors of Ontario (LICO), making this event international. St. Joseph’s College, with its historic significance and multi-faceted facilities, serves as an ideal location. The venue features well-equipped classrooms, a spacious auditorium, and over 10 acres of training ground for outdoor exhibits and demonstrations. Given the college staff’s goal of reopening as a vocational school, collaborative efforts with organizations like LICA add momentum to the initiative, fostering awareness and interest in essential careers. As June 13 approaches, excitement is building for the LICA Water Management Forum. Professionals from various corners of the water management spectrum are gearing up to converge at St. Joseph’s College, ready to explore, learn and contribute to the future of sustainable water management. 

FHWA: Changes in Indexes Suggest Easing of Inflation On Material Prices POLICY from page 28

The combined demand for contractors and labor shortages has created a one-two punch in the gut for the state’s transportation build-out. “We’ve got a lot of large contracts happening and the contractors who are capable … are not as numerous as they need to be,” said Sen. Marko Liias. As a result, the state is considering ways to create more appeal for smaller contractors, including breaking these megaprojects into multiple, smaller contracts. For now, Rep. Jake Fey proposed rejecting Highway 520 bids and revisiting the details of the project. “We don’t have another $500 million laying around.” FHWA’s Take On Index Results It’s a situation affecting contractors across the transportation construction spectrum and well beyond Washington State. In analyzing the latest NHCC index results, FHWA reported that for the second quarter of 2023 a 3.8 percent increase continued from the first quarter. “Compared to the historical quarterly average of 1.4 percent growth, this is still higher than average inflation,” said FHWA. The agency said the numbers are “less than the high inflation observed during 2021 and 2022, where average quarterly growth was 5.2 percent.” They suggested that elevated inflation in 2021 and 2022 may have been driven by supply chain disruptions and fluctuating oil prices. “Current trends in the index indicate that as these factors stabilize, the NHCCI may revert to its long-term average.” Overall changes in such construction-related indexes suggests an easing of inflation on material prices, said FHWA. “Divergence in producer price index [PPI] and NHCCI suggests factors other than material input prices may be contributing to NHCCI inflation,” it said. “Notably, the PPI for asphalt showed a 20.5 percent increase during 2023 Q2 after showing a 22.2 percent decrease during 2023 Q1.” Other construction-related PPI such

Other construction-related materials, such as materials, concrete products and fabricated structural metal, are more expensive to purchase for construction projects.

as materials, concrete products and fabricated structural metal showed modest inflation between 0-2 percent. “The asphalt price volatility combined with relatively stable prices for other material may partially explain why the NHCCI continues to outpace the PPI.” The Real Numbers, Crunched The Eno Center noted that when FHWA released its latest cost index, it had to admit construction inflation had not slowed. In fact, the transportation think tank said, the cost of building highways increased by 3.8 percent in the second quarter of 2023. That figure is equivalent to a 15.3 percent annual inflation rate, said the policy organization. “This shows that, even though inflation had lessened elsewhere in the economy by that point, it was not yet done with highway construction.” FHWA tracks construction costs quarterly through the NHCC index. In mid-2021, according to Eno, the index began growing rapidly. It peaked in the April-June 2022 quarter, and had a “temporary respite” in the fourth quarter of 2022, after which acceleration began once more. “Since the end of 2020, the NHCCI says that highway construction costs have increased by 59.3 percent,” reported the Eno Center. The organization is not surprised by

the fact that the largest share of the increase was from rises in the cost of asphalt, dictated by the price of petroleum. “But the second-largest cause of the quarterly increase was from traffic control, which is particularly labor-intensive,” said Eno policy analysts. FHWA concluded that while it’s suggested labor costs are a driving factor in NHCCI inflation, the “relatively low and stable inflation” proves inconsistent “The disparities in growth among the indices underline that each index’s sensitivity to broader events varies,” said the federal agency. Those factors include COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions, material shortages, and oil price swings, FHWA added. “New FHWA spending obligations in fiscal years 2021, 2022 and the first three quarters of 2023 totaled $152 billion,” noted Eno. The organization suggests re-basing highway construction costs the last quarter of 2020, then deflate everything after that. The result is that $152 million in new obligations deflates to a “real” total of $116 billion, according to the Eno Center. The think tank figures that $35.2 billion in real buying power of the IIJA and regular funding has been lost to highway construction cost inflation since then.  CEG

Tuscarora Tunnels Receive Badly-Needed Makeover

The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission is nearing the end of a project to improve both the eastbound and westbound tubes of the Tuscarora Tunnel.

A challenge on the project has been the coordination of 28 contractors (one prime and 27 subs), many with specialty work items, and approximately a dozen state, local and PTC stakeholders. TUNNEL from page 1

Pittsburgh, Pa., where the president is Brian J. Gilkey and the superintendent is Mike Rhoads. The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission Project Manager is John R. Cottle of Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson Inc. (JMT) of Pittsburgh, Pa., which serves as the construction consultant under the direction of Anthony Ciarico, project manager. Ciarico noted that the two tunnels are located in central Pennsylvania. The eastbound tunnel is more than 80 years old. “Actually, it was first drilled for a railroad company back in the late 1800s, abandoned, and then when the Turnpike did their initial mainline construction in the early 1940s, I believe, they used this tunnel,” he said. “The second tunnel is the westbound, built in the late ’60s, early ’70s. So, the two tunnels being built in different time periods have a little bit different characteristics … so the scope was different for each tunnel.” He explained that work on the eastbound side included the

The prime contractor is Mosites Construction Company of Pittsburgh, Pa.

There were approximately 27 subcontractors on the project.

removal of all the existing barrier and the ceiling, which brought the tunnel back to basically its original arch shape, installation of new drainage, water infiltration, a new collection system, a new tunnel waterproofing system, new life safety features, CO monitors, alarms and linear heat detection systems. Other additions included lane control signs, dynamic message boards, new LED lighting and a new pavement section both within the tunnel and for the tunnel approaches. “This, along with a white epoxy coating applied to the walls, resulted in wider lanes and a brighter look,” Ciarico said. He added that the westbound tunnel maintained its existing shape without removing the ceiling or the barrier, so it was a more traditional rehabilitation. New inlets were added for drainage and a better water infiltration collection system also was installed. Concrete and crack repairs also were done throughout and life safety features similar to those in the first tunnel also were added, as well as LED lights and new pavement. For the two portal buildings at each end of the tunnel, upgrades included new electric switch gear systems and an

improved ventilation system. Generators also were updated and upgrades were made in the office space where the tunnel guards work. Late in the design, substructure work was added for two small bridges just west of the tunnel that needed some repairs. Conducting a construction project during COVID was one of the main challenges with the project. “Statewide, all construction projects were halted for a minimum of one month during the onset of COVID,” Ciarico said. “Upon resumption, special safety measures were taken to halt spread and a COVID response program was implemented. Later, supply chain issues became a hindrance along with the inflation spike impacting certain material costs.” He noted that the original completion date was the end of June of last year, but the contract had to be extended by seven months. Another challenge was the coordination of 28 contractors (one prime and 27 subs), many with specialty work items, see TUNNEL page 88

O&G Industries Focuses On Investing in Sustainability

The Cat 988K XE is a 120,000-lb. machine with a 10.5-yd. bucket.

“This new concept with the Cat 988K XE is gaining momentum with northeast aggregate producers,” said Scott Gilligan, H.O. Penn Machinery sales representative. “More power and half the fuel consumption, it just makes sense. This technology will continue to spread throughout the Caterpillar product offering.” O&G from page 49

decades saw the additions of asphalt and concrete plants, as well as the mason division. O&G has built more than 300 schools, including more than six million square feet of sustainable, net-zero and LEED-certified space. The success is built by the dedication of thousands of employees over the decades. Every milestone of the company’s first 100

years comes down to a simple fact: working strategically and professionally, they have accomplished great things together. Investing in Sustainability The type of work that O&G Industries does can often be associated with having a negative impact on the environment. However, for some time, O&G Industries has focused on the critical work of being a good environmental steward and is constant-

ly looking for ways to improve operations at all of its facilities to eliminate adverse environmental impacts. The company and its board of directors have adopted an environmental policy “to protect the environment for the health, safety and quality of life for their communities, their employees, their customers and the general public.” This commitment has been demonstrated in a variety of ways.

O&G Industries invested in adding solar power to many of its facilities, the most significant being the Southbury quarry, where 3,762 solar panels generate enough electricity to run the entire quarry and run surplus energy back into the grid. O&G Industries’ asphalt and concrete plants have taken the ENERGY STAR Challenge to improve the overall efficiency of its plants by at least 10 percent. It also is see O&G page 58

O&G Industries Relies On H.O. Penn for Equipment Needs O&G from page 56

committed to producing greener asphalt; the goal being to produce net-zero pavement by 2025. It also is constantly introducing new products to its asphalt customers, such as fiber reinforced asphalt, which is 100 percent recyclable. In Connecticut, Urban Mining is turning glass from local recycling facilities into a product called Pozzotive, an additive to concrete that makes the concrete very high performance and more sustainable, and at the same time, cuts the energy needed to produce the concrete and reduces CO2 emissions from the concrete production process. These and other commitments that O&G Industries has made to protecting the planet are not just for show, they are a long-term part of the company’s corporate philosophy. Equipment Plays Major Role in Green Initiatives Recently, Scott Gilligan, H.O. Penn Machinery’s sales representative, worked with Jim Zambero, vice president of O&G Industries, to make a major equipment purchase that would further advance the company’s green initiative. Zambero, who has been

with O&G Industries for 44 years and manages its entire equipment fleet, is constantly looking for ways for his fleet of literally thousands of pieces of equipment, to contribute to O&G Industries green initiative. Gilligan contacted Zambero about an extraordinary new quarry loader, the Cat 988K XE, a new hybrid loader that would fall right in line with O&G Industries initiatives. The cutting-edge technology in the new 988K XE creates a diesel-electric hybrid machine. A traditional 988K that has been retrofitted with an electric transmission and as a result, the power plant is substantially smaller, which produces approximately a 50 percent savings in fuel consumption with no reduction in power and generates 32 percent less CO2 emissions. The three-speed electronic transmission generates more force into the pile and more bite into the pile than the previous transmissions, making it a more efficient machine. Not only is it consuming less fuel and producing less emissions, it also is reducing cycle times. Because the transmission is electric, the increased amounts of torque and bite are there immediately. There is no waiting for increased rpms and horsepower to get the increased torque.

“A great added feature is that you can turn the torque down on rainy days when traction is an issue, and you don’t want as much torque because ultimately it would create more tire wear,” Zambero said. In a traditional loader, the operator is constantly on and off the throttle: revving up the throttle to break into the pile, reducing the throttle when pulling out of the pile, making constant throttle adjustments. With the electronic transmission, all of that is handled within the transmission. The throttle of the engine stays pretty much the same throughout the entire process. The Cat 988K XE is a 120,000-lb. machine with a 10.5-yd. bucket. According to Gilligan, “This new concept with the Cat 988K XE is gaining momentum with northeast aggregate producers. With more power and half the fuel consumption, it just makes sense. This technology will continue to spread throughout the Caterpillar product offering.” “There is a premium price you are paying for this technology, but the fuel savings paid for it in a very short time,” said Zambero. “Making the decision to buy this machine was not a painful process. It’s not very often you see a return on investment in

such a short period of time. H.O. Penn Works Closely With O&G “The majority of our fleet is Caterpillar machines from H.O. Penn,” he added. “Scott [Gilligan] is very knowledgeable and handson with our account. He and I meet on a weekly basis to discuss future equipment needs including rentals and purchases. “Phil Molloy, our PSSR from H.O. Penn, does a great job handling and scheduling our service and warranty repairs. He provides a computerized inspection report of all our crawler machine undercarriages. He monitors all of our oil samples that have warranty coverage and provides a host of other services that keep our downtime to a minimum. Whenever I am asked, I encourage other equipment fleet managers that are planning on making a purchase of new or used machines to make sure they are working with a reputable dealer that has a strong service and parts department to ensure their machine up-time. That certainly describes H.O. Penn.”  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2024 Construction Equipment Guide, except where noted.)

Tips On Selecting the Right Snow Tool for Your Application Ignite Attachments photo

Snowblade

By Darin Gronwold SPECIAL TO CEG

Ignite Attachments photo

Snowblower

When it comes to snow removal, getting the job done as quickly as possible is usually a top priority. However, bigger doesn’t always mean better when it comes to snow tools. To maximize efficiency, operators need to ensure they’ve got the right tool for the job and the carrier. Ask yourself these three questions to get the right fit for your snow removal application.

Ignite Attachments photo

Snowpusher

What Does Job Site Look Like Are you looking to clear a large open space, or do you need something that can get into tight spaces and around obstacles? The layout of your job site will be the primary factor in your snow tool choice: Snow Pusher • Best for open spaces • Move large volumes of snow quickly • Turn heavy snow into a lighter lift for your machine • No hoses or hydraulic hookups Snow Blade • Best for driveways, sidewalks and other precision snow removal applications • More versatility in where snow can go • Push snow out of the way or into windrows • Requires hydraulics Snow Blower • Highly maneuverable and great for precision snow removal • Propels snow out of the way rather than just pushing • Not available for all types of compact equipment You also will want to assess any obstacles that might be hidden under the snow, such as curbs, manhole covers and other immovable objects. As a side note, operators should always wear their seatbelt, and they should travel at a slow rate until they are familiar with the area. Hitting hidden objects that are under the snow could injure the operator as well as damage your machine and attachment. What Can My Carrier Handle When working with any attachment, it’s important to know your carrier’s limitations. This includes the operating and lifting capacity. Snow can be very heavy, especially when pushing it over

large open areas with a snow pusher. You want an attachment that is wider than your compact tractor, skid steer or compact track loader. You’ll also need to make sure you have enough tractive effort and horsepower for large volumes of snow. If using a snow blower, you’ll also want to ensure adequate PTO. Your dealer can help with understanding your carrier’s specifications. There also are online tools, like Ignite Attachments’ Fit Finder, that allow you to simply enter your carrier’s make and model for confident online purchasing. Which Tool Has Best ROI for Situation The best way to maximize ROI on your attachment is to pick the right tool for all or most of your planned snow removal applications. Look for things like: • Durable construction to handle heavy loads and frequent use • Reinforced frame to withstand the weight of heavy snow and impacts • Reversible and replaceable skid shoes • Adjustable spring-loaded blade trip • Reversible, high-strength steel cutting edges to double the useful life of blades • Corrosive-resistant finishes • Top-notch service and support Snow removal is never a fun task, but with the right equipment, you can get the job done quickly and efficiently. 

Vermeer Redesigns, Enhances VXT600 Vacuum Excavator With a 12-cu.-yd. elongated spoil tank design and 1,200-gal. freshwater tank capacity, the Vermeer VXT600 vacuum truck is the lightest vacuum excavator in its size class, weighing in at just 40,000 lbs.

The Vermeer VXT600 vacuum excavator has undergone a redesign to enhance its performance. The load capacity has been increased for road use, and the component and technology reliability and serviceability have been optimized. Furthermore, the machine has incorporated performance-enhancing features to boost productivity for vacuum crews. With a 12-cu. yd. elongated spoil tank design and 1,200-gal. freshwater tank capacity, the Vermeer VXT600 vacuum truck is the lightest vacuum excavator in its size class, weighing in at just 40,000 lb. This new design allows for even weight distribution when traveling while maximizing the volume of material hauled. It also has a low profile with a height (with boom) of 12.25 ft. so that it can maneuver under trees, power lines and bridges.

The VXT600 is a powerful digging machine that operates quietly while on the job. It features a vacuum system that is powered by a 6,400-cfm. Helical tri-lobe Jurop blower. With a 23-ft. boom, an 8-in. diameter dig hose, a vacuum level of 27 inHg, and a water pump that produces 10 gpm of flow at 3,000 psi (206.8 bar), the VXT600 can dig quickly and deeply. Additionally, the boom dig hose can be stowed with the dig tube attached to minimize setup time between digs. When it’s time to empty the spoil tank, crews will appreciate the labor-saving and efficient functionality of the VXT600 vacuum truck. They don’t need to unstow the boom before dumping, and the tank’s camover door is easy to operate. The spoil tank can be lifted to a 50-degree angle for quick offloading. For even more efficient

cleanouts, an optional tank vibrator is available. Additionally, the VXT600 includes a handwashing station for operator convenience. “We have incorporated many features that contractors appreciate about the popular Vermeer VXT300 vacuum excavator to create the larger and more powerful VXT600,” said T.J. Steele, product manager of Vermeer MV Solutions. “We believe this second-generation VXT600 is exactly what the industry is looking for in a high-production vacuum excavator. It is an excellent choice for utility contractors who want to increase their potholing productivity. We designed the new VXT600 from the ground up with the goal of making the lightest 12-yd truck on the market.” The VXT600 has a 7-in. LCD electronic

display and a full-function wireless remote with the option of a belly pack or handheld unit. There are two chassis options available: a Kenworth T880 truck with a 510-hp (380-kW) Paccar MX-13 engine and a 6speed Allison 4500RDS transmission; and a Mack Granite truck with a 505-hp (377kW) Mack MP8 engine with a 6-speed Allison 4500RDS engine. Both chassis have an 86,000-lb. GVWR and two pusher axles. Other customization accessories available for the VXT600 include a 180-cfm, 110-psi (7.58 bar) air compressor for dry digging and powering pneumatic tools, a 20-gpm water pump to allow crews to dig with two wands, a 420,000 BTU Dynablast hot water heater, and a cold weather kit to heat cabinets, water lines and valves.

Approximately 27 Subs Assist With Pa. Tunnel Project TUNNEL from page 44

and approximately a dozen state, local and PTC stakeholders. “Weekly coordination meetings were held and typically attended by 20 or more individuals,” Ciarico said. “Pre-activity meetings were held to educate the contractors and inspection staff about the work items and the expectations per the contract. There were a lot of specialty contractors with specific niche work, and some of the work our inspection staff was not totally familiar with going in. We are typically a heavy highway project management company, so we do have a little bit of tunnel background for some people, but a lot of people are mostly familiar with paving, bridges, things like that. So, there were some learning curves with that and also coordination with all those.” In addition to the subcontractors, there were approximately a dozen state, local and turnpike stakeholders, with different individuals for each of the two counties involved. “That weekly meeting helped keep everybody on the same page and brought issues out,” Cottle said. “With JMT as our construction manager and Mosites as the prime contractor, they were always willing to sit down at the table and talk things through, coordinate issues, what’s our best plan of attack here and adjust accordingly. So, it was a good job with a lot of coordination as Tony [Ciarico] said. As issues came up … we sat down and worked through them and it was a good project on that regard.” Ciarico agreed. “This job embraced the partnering concept that the Turnpike is a big proponent of,” he said. “Everybody was very open with their needs and what we were trying to accomplish and the communication on the project was one of the best ones that I’ve been a part of in my 35 years in the business.” Finally, rehabilitation of 80- and 50-yearold tubes resulted in numerous unforeseen conditions requiring significant communication and occasional changes on the fly in order to keep the project moving forward. “You just never know what you’re going to encounter as you start knocking things down and knocking things away,” Ciarico said. “We had a bunch of surprises. With the demolition, we found out that there was actually a haunch that was hard to determine from the drawings and with that PVC liner, you basically needed it to be a smooth finish, and with those triangular haunches we had to then go and knock those down. When we were in the westbound tunnel, at each of those panel joints, we were chipping back about a foot to create the area to place the drainage and then that would get filler material and then a shotcrete liner. But as you

chipped it back a foot, oftentimes we found a lot of funky concrete, you would end up going further back into the wall on the tunnel, which I think is only 3 feet thick, so you don’t want to go all the way back. So, every time you would knock something down or take something away, you would find something that was a little bit of surprise that we had to kind of work on the fly to keep the job going.” Cottle said that one concern when the job started was for safety, and days were spent training with emergency personnel since crossover bidirectional traffic was placed in the other tunnel to maintain traffic east and west. “We did have a few accidents, but fortu- Rehabilitation of 80- and 50-year-old tubes resulted in numerous unforeseen conditions requiring significant communication and occasional changes on the nately nothing major,” he said.

In addition, there were approximately 27 other subcontractors on the project. For Independence Excavating, the equipment list included a Kobelco with a muncher attached, a hydraulic set of jaws that would actually crush the concrete, which was 8 inches thick in the ceiling. Ciarico reported that Schneider Moran and Mosites used JLGs and scissor lifts for the most part to get the material put in place for the PVC liner. “But they did design and construct their own scaffold — it’s like a mobile scaffold unit,” he said. “When you’re using scissor lifts and JLGs, you’re kind of limiting yourself access-wise, so they built this on their own, to work up in the ceiling area and on the different sides, different wooden scaffolds you could work with.”  CEG (All photos courtesy of Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson Inc.)
