Work continues on a $2.3 billion construction project designed to convert Northern Virginia’s Interstate 66 into a multimodal corridor. The undertaking will reportedly move more people, provide reliable trips and offer new travel options.
“The Transform 66 Outside the Beltway project is needed to address existing and future transportation problems within northern Virginia and the greater Washington, D.C. region,” said Michelle Holland, communications manager of Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) Northern Virginia Megaprojects. “The project is intended to improve multimodal mobility along the I-66
Corridor by providing diverse travel choices in a cost-effective manner. The improvements will enhance transportation safety and travel reliability. Annual daily traffic volumes along the busiest stretches of I-66 are approximately 200,000 vehicles per day.” The endeavor is a public-private partnership between VDOT, the Department of Rail and see TRANSFORM page 38
N.J. Hikes Gas Tax to Recoup Road Fund Loss Motorists and equipment operators in the Garden State will have to pay more at the pump by October, as New Jersey will hike its gasoline tax to try to recoup revenue lost from lower demand due to the coronavirus pandemic. New Jersey’s Department of the Treasury announced Aug. 28 that a gas tax increase of 9.3 cents a gallon will go into effect on Oct. 1, due to lower fuel consumption trends that have been “exacerbated by the COVID-19
pandemic.” That increase brings the state’s share to 50.7 cents per gallon for regular gas and 57.7 cents per gallon for diesel. “As we’ve noted before, any changes in the gas tax rate are dictated by several factors that are beyond the control of the administration,” State Treasurer Elizabeth Maher Muoio said in a statement. Under a 2016 law signed by former Gov. Chris Christie, New Jersey’s Transportation
Trust Fund (TTF) program requires a steady stream of revenue to provide $16 billion over eight years to support critical infrastructure improvements to the state’s roadways and bridges. In order to guarantee the state has the funds to support such projects, the 2016 law outlines that the Petroleum Products Gross Receipt (PPGR) tax rate must be adjusted accordingly to generate roughly $2 billion per year. see GAS page 102

New Route 355 Bridge Designed to Provide Flood Relief Just to the northwest of Washington, D.C., most drivers are all too familiar with brutal traffic on Maryland Route 355, where it’s known as Wisconsin Avenue and Rockville Pike. Where MD Route 355 is known as Frederick Road, drivers can expect temporary stoppages after work ramped up on the construction of a new bridge over Little Bennett Creek in Hyattstown. The new structure is being built in place of a 93-year-old existing bridge on the twolane stretch of road near the border between Montgomery and Frederick counties. State highway officials said the old span was still safe for travel but had reached the end of its reliable service life. The new structure is being erected 3 ft. higher than the old bridge to minimize stream bank erosion when water levels rise along the creek below. In addition, crews also will be redirecting and redesigning 900 ft. of Little Bennett Creek to prevent further erosion, according to the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA). That work will include creating more chan-

nels for water to be diverted when the stream swells after heavy rains. A temporary bridge and roadway, adjacent to the original, is now carrying MD Route 355 traffic during construction. Concrete General Inc. in Gaithersburg is the prime contractor for the Maryland
bridge replacement. The total cost of the project is $10.4 million. With the job more than 71 percent complete, on Aug. 25, huge precast concrete beams were hauled to the site on flatbed trucks. Periodically, flagging crews are stopping traffic in both directions to enable
a crane to remove the beams from the truck and swing them into place. The MDOT SHA said crews will try to keep traffic stops to a minimum wait time. Daily construction is expected to wrap up by 3 p.m. to minimize delays during afternoon rush hour. After the bridge beams are in place, Maryland highway officials said construction of the new deck will begin in September. Recently completed work includes: • Crews drilling and installing the steel core H-piles needed for the foundation of the south abutment (Abutment A), • Work also was finished on the placement and installation of the concrete footing for Abutment A. • Concrete General performed the form work needed for the stem of the south abutment. According to the MDOT SHA, the bridge construction will continue throughout the fall and winter. If all goes to plan, the estimated completion of the new MD Route 355 bridge will be the late spring of 2020.
Port Authority Needs $3B to Move Forward on JFK Overhaul With passenger numbers and revenues mere fractions of what they were in 2019, airlines and airports are rethinking some of their largest expenditures amid the ongoing pandemic. Specifically, the widesweeping billion-dollar renovation projects under way at hubs across the country. One of the latest airport projects with an uncertain future? The $13 billion overhaul of New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport. According to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey — the agency that runs JFK — without a cash infusion from a second government COVID-19 relief bill, the airport’s construction could be indefinitely delayed or require parts of the project to be halted. “The Port Authority is funded by travelrelated activities and has suffered a $3 billion loss,” New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo wrote in a recent letter to congressional lawmakers. “Without federal assistance construction at LaGuardia and John F. Kennedy Airport and other improvements could very well be stopped or delayed.” The agency has requested $3 billion from Congress to cover its deficit, which it calculated based on projections that it will continue to lose revenue into 2022. Because its construction hasn’t yet begun, JFK’s redevelopment is one of the projects most at risk, according to the Port Authority, along with new AirTrains for
LaGuardia and Newark airports. The ongoing massive construction at LaGuardia, along with a new Terminal One currently being built at Newark, are less likely to be halted, but aspects of those plans could nonetheless be in jeopardy as well if federal funding doesn’t come through. The initial plan to overhaul JFK was announced by Cuomo in October 2018, with the goal to prepare for a projected influx of 100 million annual passengers by 2050, as well as to streamline the airport’s disparate network of buildings by demolishing several of the older isolated terminals and building larger, more connected facilities in their place. Other terminals also would see renovations and additions. The ground-breaking was supposed to happen this past spring, with the first new gates opening in 2023 and the development completed in 2025. That timeline is unlikely to come to fruition; the largest parts of the projects have already been delayed as officials await federal relief funds. Construction on brand new buildings for Terminals 4 and 6 — future homes to Delta and JetBlue, respectively — have been put on hold. Ground-breaking on JFK’s new Terminal 1 building, which is funded by a consortium of international airlines — Lufthansa, Air France, Japan Airlines and
Korean Airlines — was scheduled for earlier in 2020. The $7 billion project will instead be delayed until early next year, the director of the consortium said. One aspect of JFK International’s overhaul is moving its timeline forward: the $344 million renovation of Terminal 8. That project, under way since last winter, is funded entirely by the partner carriers who will occupy the facility, American Airlines and British Airways. In fact, 90 percent of the JFK revamp is being funded by private investors, such as airlines, with the Port Authority putting up the rest of the money. In the first federal COVID-19 relief bill, the Port Authority was given $450 million in government aid, earmarked specifically for its three airports. Even so, the agency contends it no longer has the funds to back its portion of the project. Traffic across the three New York–area airports is still down by almost 90 percent, which means a major loss in fees and other passenger revenues that go to the Port Authority. Most experts predict that demand in the air travel industry won’t recover to 2019 levels until at least 2023, with some predictions stretching as far as 2025. “We are asking Congress to provide the Port Authority with direct financial assistance to offset its massive revenue losses
so we can ensure critically important capital construction projects can move forward,” said Rick Cotton, the Port Authority’s executive director in a July statement, noting that budgets for the agency’s improvement projects leverage a combined $10 billion in private money. What’s more, he added those private investments could “easily be lost” if any of the various construction projects are compromised. Experts say that U.S. airports also need a second round of relief aid just to cover their operating costs as passenger numbers continue to lag. Earlier this summer, industry group Airports Council International, North America, asked Congress for an additional $13 billion in emergency funding (in the first federal relief bill, U.S. airports received $10 billion). At this point, however, any type of federal stimulus money is uncertain, as Congressional negotiations for a second COVID-19 relief bill have been stalled since early August. In the meantime, airports across the country are facing similar delays on major construction work due to revenue losses. For instance, Orlando International Airport was forced to scale back a $3 billion new terminal facility, while Dallas-Fort Worth Airport and San Francisco International each postponed billion-dollar-plus terminal construction projects.

“As a supervisor, what I admire most is his rigorous honesty. If you ask him a question, you will get an honest answer.”
After 42 years of uninterrupted service, Rick Palmesi is retiring from Westchester Tractor. Palmesi’s tenure began in 1978, when, fresh from automotive school, he interviewed with John Apple, founder and president of Westchester Tractor. Westchester, which had only been in operation for one year, was at that time a Ford tractor and construction equipment dealership. Palmesi started out as a technician, and over the years did just about every parts- and service-related job the company had to offer, before eventually landing in the service manager position. “The service manager position has certainly evolved over the years,” Palmesi said. “When I was first introduced to the job, it basically revolved around taking care of the billing, answering the phone and working on the shop floor. Today, the job entails overseeing nine technicians, recruiting, hiring and retaining new technicians, working with local vocational schools to develop educational opportunities for students interested in working in the trades, assisting with warranty administration, scheduling all service repair work and working together with the shop forman on solving complicated service issues.” According to Palmesi, one of the biggest challenges associated with the service manager job is hiring new employees. “Finding individuals who are willing to work, capable of working and have an aptitude for working in this industry is extremely difficult,” he said. “Vocational work just does not seem to appeal to today’s job applicants. “I have done a number of things to try and change that, including making presentations to our local BOCES school to try to recruit some interest from high school students. We also work closely with New York State’s ag and technical colleges, specifically SUNY Cobleskill and SUNY Morrisville, to try to pick up trained technicians as they are graduating from the universities.

Being Neighborly — Suburban Philly’s Gill Quarries
Best Line Equipment has sold 16 Doosan machines in all to Ratoskey & Trainor, including a DL550-3 wheel loader, two DX180LC-3 crawler excavators and a DX80R mini-excavator.
Of all the work Ray Trainor oversees — the drill blasting, the demolition, the recycling and excavating — one task never strays far from his mind: remaining a good neighbor. Set in a neighborhood northwest of Philadelphia, Trainor’s company, Gill Quarries, mines six days a week while churning out recycled concrete, cut stone, rock products and more. Surrounded by rows of suburban homes, the quarry always shuts down by 4 p.m., and teams try to limit the digging on weekends. “Our quarry is in a residential area,” Trainor said. “We have to be very mindful of the people around us.” But there’s always more to do. Staying on top of demand is the biggest challenge for Trainor and his partner, Rob Ratoskey. The two also run a construction firm, Ratoskey & Trainor, requiring them to make the most of every daylight hour. And that requires a diverse mix of equipment for their equally diverse work.
Try It Out
Rob Ratoskey and Ray Trainor keep their Doosan dealer up to speed about their growing fleet needs. In fact, Best Line Equipment Sales Manager Armand Cencetti knows Ratoskey and Trainor’s business so well that he occasionally drops off a machine for them to demo unprompted. It’s almost always a hit. “It seems like whenever he sends something, it never goes [back],” Trainor said. And the benefits of a tight-knit dealer relationship show up elsewhere, too, he said, including in service and repairs. “Everything they’ve ever said to me, I pretty much could take it to the bank.”

Funding Woes Could Delay Mon-Fayette Expressway Funding shortfalls as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could delay another major Pennsylvania highway project — the northern section of the Mon-Fayette Expressway from Duquesne to Monroeville, east of Pittsburgh. The Pennsylvania Turnpike, which is building the toll road, said Sept. 1 it has funding to build the southern section of the highway from Jefferson Hills to PA Route 837 in Duquesne. That 8-mi., $900 million project is in final design and scheduled to begin construction in 2024. But because the project is funded through the oil franchise tax and people are using less gasoline during the pandemic, revenue from that tax is down substantially. As a result, the turnpike is reviewing whether it should delay the design of the northern section on the long-awaited highway, said Brad Heigel, the turnpike’s chief engineer. Under ordinary circumstances, Heigel said, the turnpike would begin designing the northern section once it begins construction on the southern portion. The build is expected to take four years. With incoming revenue from the oil franchise tax at a low point, Heigel said, the agency will spend the next few months monitoring how quickly it recovers. Some have estimated the tax could generate $800 million to $900 million less than expected over the next few years. “Right now, we’re assessing what’s happening with that revenue,” he explained. “I wouldn’t want to be getting too far out in front of it and begin the final design if we’re not sure we will have the money. “I’m very optimistic about what the schedule looks like for the first section. I don’t have an answer for what happens after that. Likely, the northern section will be delayed.” The turnpike funds new construction such as the expressway and the Southern Beltway near Pittsburgh International Airport, which is scheduled to open in fall 2021, through the franchise tax on a pay-as-you go basis with little borrowing. That’s different than capital improvements on the existing parts of the turnpike, which often are funded through bonds. Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald, who also chairs the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission, which oversees transportation projects in the 10-county region, tried to redirect money from the expressway to other projects three years ago. When that wasn’t possible, he voted for the
“…the expressway is a long-term economic generator for the Mon Valley.”

Austin Davis Pennsylvania State Representative
project that has been discussed for more than five decades. “I think [delays in transportation projects are] something you’re going to see again and again,” Fitzgerald said. “Funding is short because taxing isn’t keeping up with the needs we have. Pennsylvania is no different than any other state. These projects are reliant on the funding. We need a national infrastructure bill, and we need it sooner rather than later.” State Rep. Austin Davis said he’s pleased the southern part of the project remains on schedule and “disappointed but not surprised” with the funding concern for the northern section. His McKeesport district includes the southern section of the highway. “Obviously, the expressway is a longterm economic generator for the Mon Valley,” he said. “At this time, the project is still on schedule and we will have to see what happens with the franchise tax in the future.” Hugh Baird, an aide to Sen. Jim Brewster, McKeesport, agreed. “From Sen. Brewster’s standpoint, it’s still moving ahead and that’s a priority for him,” Baird said. “A lot of [what happens next] has to do with how quickly the economy kicks back into gear.” Davis, who also is a member of the Port Authority of Allegheny County’s board, said the situation with the expressway “further highlights the need for sustainable funding at the state level.” The Legislature seemed poised to deal with that issue this year before the pandemic. “Things are so uncertain right now because COVID affects everything,” he said. “It’s a very fluid situation. At this point, I think all options are still on the table.” Heigel said one benefit about the construction of the expressway project is that it will be built from south to north through a series of small contracts. As a result, each part can open to motorists as it is finished rather than all of it having to be finished at once like the Southern Beltway.

Brex Enterprises Sets New Standards for Safety, Innovation Based in Irwin, Pa., – approximately 22 mi. southeast of Pittsburgh, Brex Enterprises provides pipeline maintenance and services; earthwork and development; trucking and hauling; and right-of-way services. A family business with a history of generations of construction experience, it operates mainly in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia and New York. Founded in 2012 as Brentzel Excavation LLC, the company, attributes its growth and success to building upon a solid foundation comprised of five essential components, according to Alicia Brentzel, president and co-owner with husband Andrew (A.J.). The company was begun when A.J. — who had been working for a family member doing excavation — decided to form his own excavation business. Slowly, the company moved into also doing pipeline work for the oil and gas industry. Eagle Eye Productions photo In 2014, Brentzel Excavation LLC changed its name to a Founded in 2012 as Brentzel Excavation LLC, Brex DBA (Doing Business As): Brex Enterprises. ‘Br’ for Enterprises attributes its growth and success to Brentzel and ‘ex’ for excavation. building upon a solid foundation consisting of five A.J.’s family construction history spans back four gener- essential components, said Alicia Brentzel, president and co-owner with husband Andrew (A.J.). ations and touches upon most aspects of construction. At the beginning of 2019, Brex Enterprises earned a Women Business Enterprise (WBE) cer- Eagle Eye Productions photo tification from the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC). It is a private thirdparty that certifies women-owned businesses on behalf of U.S. corporations or WBE certification through city, county or state programs. “The certification gives us another tool in our toolbox to use to go after certain government contracts that require a minimum participation level of spend with small businesses and diverse business enterprises,” she explains. A Foundation of Safety One part of the company’s foundation is safety, said Alicia Brentzel. “Our employees are the company’s greatest asset and their health and safety is the company’s number one priority. Our safety record is amazing and we attribute that to truly establishing the priority that safety is first. We do not make any sacrifices to safety, period.” All employees receive comprehensive annual training from company management on all aspects of work Brex Enterprises does. A company safety committee — made up of employees and managers — meet monthly to monitor and address issues. The committee also conducts on-site inspections at random. There is a company-wide commitment to safety on an employee and management level, she added. This is achieved through initial training and annual training thereafter.
All employees receive comprehensive annual training from company management on all aspects of work Brex Enterprises does. A company safety committee – made up of employees and managers – meet monthly to monitor and address issues. The committee also conducts on-site inspections at random.
The company’s safety training programs comply with all clients’ requests and regulatory agencies, including the U.S. DOT and OSHA. Being in the oil and gas industry there are already additional safety measures that we must comply with, Brentzel pointed out. That includes SafeLandUSA training — a standardized orientation training for workers in the U.S. Onshore and Gas Exploration & Production industries. “Part of our bidding process is to conduct a preliminary safety analysis of the job to determine if we need to add more time and additional safety measures. Things that would add cost or time to a job is accounted for upfront." Up to 2018, the company had no lost work claims. Since then there has been only minor incidents. Measuring Customer Satisfaction “Another part of our solid foundation is customer satisfaction, which we pride ourselves on,” said Brentzel. “One of the things we do to measure customer satisfaction, aside from ongoing checks, is that is after every project we do surveys. These are typically sent to the site supervisor and essentially everyone we have worked with on that job. “The survey is just a couple of questions to seek feedback. We ask things like: how was our performance, what could we improve on, do you want to call out anything that was positive or negative? This enables us to continuously monitor and improve the customer experience we provide.” Innovation Drives Growth Innovation is another foundation component. The development and application of ideas, improvements and technologies improves processes, productivity, profitability and safety, which, in turn drives company growth, Brentzel pointed out. By way of example, the company has created a custom attachment for its excavating machines that increase safety and productivity.
Growth Through Vertical Integration Obviously, growth is good for a business, is vital for future success and must be part of a company’s foundation, said Brentzel. The company is All new employees are paired up with an experienced worker to more constantly looking to take advantage of new quickly get them acclimated to the job and the company ways. New opportunities and attract more customers. employees are moved around to different positions so they are able to “We are also developing new ranges of services perform different duties. for our customers by taking a vertical integration strategy. With this, our customers do not have Eagle Eye Productions photo to go to multiple companies to have work done.” Staying True to Core Values The remaining component of Brex Enterprises’ foundation is its cores values: accountability, selfless leadership and integrity. • Accountability. The objective here is to have all employees to be accountable and responsible for accomplishing the company’s business goals, explained Brentzel. For this to happen, employees need to understand those see BREX page 100

Razing of Former JP Morgan Chase HQ Progresses in NYC Demolition is visibly moving along on JP Morgan Chase’s former 52-story headquarters at 270 Park Ave. in midtown Manhattan, N.Y. Formerly referred to as the Union Carbide Building, the financial company is in the midst of razing the 707ft.-tall mid-century skyscraper in order to make way for a 1,425-ft.-tall, 2.5-million-sq. ft. supertall, which will be one of the tallest structures in New York City. The building’s western podium annex is almost completely gone, with only a couple floors remaining. This looks to be the fastest part of the demolition process. Views from above show a team of machinery busily ripping apart the steel structural columns, girders, and beams, while large

Experienced Mobile Crane Technician Are you a Crane Industry Technician looking for some fresh air and a new place to build a career? Wood’s CRW, a nearly 60 year old family owned company is looking for an experienced Crane Technician to add to our Williston, Vermont team. Vermont is considered the healthiest state in the country according to the United Health Foundations 2019 report.
chunks of the concrete floor slabs and torn metal decking have been removed and lay in piles waiting to be hauled away. Most of the skyscraper is still standing, though the demolition progress is apparent. A huge amount of scaffolding and black netting shrouds all four sides of the superstructure, except for the area around the base of the construction crane on the southern elevation facing East 47th Street. This assembly is divided with the use of three platforms located on the 16th, 29th, and 41st floors of the structure. The crane is dismantling each floor and removing debris along the way. The platforms on the south side of the building jut out on all four sides from the steel exterior. They help to support the weight of the external scaffolding and ultimately serve to break up the skyscraper and demolition process into a quartet of
major sections and stages. The interior floors of the current 270 Park Ave. structure have been stripped to the bare bones of the concrete and steel superstructure, which allows crews to easily bring down the edifice floor by floor. The repetitive stack of rectangular-shaped floor plates and columns also accelerates the process. When the demolition project is finished, 270 Park Avenue will make history as the tallest building ever to be peacefully taken down. The record has long been held by the Singer Building, which was torn down in 1968 to clear the way for the construction of One Liberty Plaza. Expectations are that the building will be fully demolished in 2021. A completion date for the new JP Morgan headquarters taking its place, as well as a finalized rendering of the office supertall, have yet to be disclosed.
CRW offers a safe, enjoyable work environment with competitive salary and benefits. Benefits include medical insurance upon hire, vacation and sick time, technical training, paid holidays, short-term disability insurance, and a 401(k) plan/profit sharing.

Brooklyn, N.Y.-Based Steiner Studios to Build New Facility
Dattner Architects rendering
Steiner Studios has partnered with Dattner Architects to complete a 500,000-sq.-ft. productions studio at Bush Terminal in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.
Steiner Studios, a New York City-based film and TV production studio, has partnered with Dattner Architects in Manhattan to complete a new 500,000-sq.-ft. productions studio at Bush Terminal in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. The new facility will arrive as Steiner Studios’ second Brooklyn outpost and its first in the “Made in New York Campus,” which is expected to open in 2021. The campus is a collaborative effort by the city’s Economic Development Corporation and the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment to create a onestop shop for film and media production, garment manufacturing and other related service industries. As part of the expanding campus, the Steiner Studios facility will include eight sound stages, production support spaces and a new parking structure. The studio’s existing complex at the nearby Brooklyn Navy Yard is already the largest film and television production complex in the United States outside Hollywood. At that location, Steiner Studios is spread across a 50-acre private enclave encompassing 760,000 sq. ft. and 30 soundstages.
As revealed in renderings from Dattner Architects, the new Sunset Park facility will comprise eight neighboring sound stages, dedicated loading docks, a roof-level terrace, and an unspecified six-story building at the northern end of the site. The production support component will be housed in two existing buildings located at the southern boundary of the facility. The structures will be fully gutted and renovated as needed for its intended use. The new parking structure stands six stories above ground and is positioned between the existing buildings and the primary studio component. The project is estimated to create approximately 1,800 construction jobs and 2,200 full-time positions. While an official project timeline has not been revealed, construction broke ground earlier this year. Total costs for the project reportedly hover around $320 million. New York City agencies have contributed about $15 million toward completion of the development. Additional components within the greater campus will include a public plaza, an expanded esplanade along Upper Bay and an upgraded infrastructure to support the new buildings.

JCB Restores Vintage Backhoe Loader to Former Glory for UK-Based Contractor One of JCB’s longest-standing customers has unwrapped a unique present — a vintage backhoe loader restored to its former glory to mark the equipment manufacturer’s approaching 75th anniversary. Lincolnshire-based Eric Carnaby & Son has been a customer since 1959 and over the following six decades has bought more than 150 JCB machines. Now JCB has said thank you to the firm for its loyalty by restoring the Carnaby family’s cherished 1964 JCB 1 backhoe. The project was kept a closely guarded secret until George Bamford — grandson of JCB Founder Joseph Cyril Bamford CBE — sprung the restoration surprise during a visit to the company’s base in Immingham, near Grimsby, to collect the machine. Now six months later the backhoe has been handed back to the company after a team at JCB’s World HQ in Rocester, Staffordshire, spent hundreds of hours lovingly restoring it. Eric Carnaby & Son Director Roland Carnaby Junior said: “My family and I are over the moon with the restoration. Our JCB 1 is precious to us and we’ve been meaning to restore it for some time, but you know how it is — a business to run, and all that.” George Bamford said: “It has been amazing to see an old machine brought back to life by the JCB team. It looks just as it would have done on the day it came off the production line in 1964.” Founded by Eric Carnaby in 1946, the plant hire and road

haulage firm is now run by father-and-son team Roland Carnaby Senior and Roland Carnaby Junior. The company’s first JCB purchase was a JCB 4 backhoe in 1959 and it was the JCB backhoe loader which formed the backbone of the Eric Carnaby & Son fleet for many years to come — with up to 12 in operation during the 1970s and 1980s. The company’s most recent purchase was the latest X Series excavator. The two family businesses have been strongly intertwined throughout the 61-year period, with 95 percent of the Eric Carnaby & Son fleet now made up of JCB equipment.

FAM Construction Leads $2.3B Transform 66 Project TRANSFORM from page 1
Public Transportation (DRPT) and private partner I-66 Express Mobility Partners. Construction is being led by design-build contractor FAM Construction LLC, a partnership between Ferrovial Agroman US and Allan Myers, VA. “Construction is actively under way throughout the 22.5-mile project corridor, with visible progress on widening I-66, replacing bridge crossings with new bridges, reconstructing interchanges and building new noise walls to protect neighboring communities,” said Holland. Improvements include more than 22 mi. of new express lanes alongside three regular lanes on I-66 from I-495 to University Boulevard in Gainesville and faster trips on I-66 due to dynamically-tolled express lanes that will be available to solo drivers who choose to pay a toll, and free to vehicles with three or more individuals. Other benefits will include new and improved bus service and transit routes, expanded park and ride lots providing convenient access to the express lanes and more than 4,000 new park and ride spaces. Crews also are making interchange improvements to enhance safety and reduce congestion, including auxiliary lanes between interchanges, where needed. In addition, 11 mi. of new bike and pedestrian trails will be offered. Benefits to the Commonwealth from the partnership project agreement include $500 million being used for additional improvements to the I-66 Corridor, $600 million in anticipated public subsidy returned for other projects, $800 million in transit subsidy and $350 million in future I-66 Corridor improvements. The project corridor has been divided into three segments. Each has a design and construction management team from EMP/FAM and VDOT and has weekly construction meetings. Work is occurring across all three segments simultaneously to meet the construction schedule. Disciplines and specialties, such as traffic, environmental, utilities, outreach, etc., span all three VDOT photo Early project work began in December 2017. segments.

I-66 Corridor Project to Transform Travel in Northern Va. TRANSFORM from page 38
Major roadway construction means several years of lane shifts and temporary lane closures. Managing construction while keeping traffic flowing is among the project’s challenges. “The construction team does its best to minimize the impact of activities on traffic, but drivers are advised to expect to find additional traffic congestion and safety challenges throughout the I-66 Corridor, both during rush hour and off-peak trips. VDOT and the project team have invested in a broad range of programs to help commuters and others stay mobile and safe during construction. “Generally, construction-related lane closures are not allowed on I-66 during peak travel times. Single-lane closures are allowed during daytime, non-peak hours. Much of the work, such as bridge beam lifts and demolition over I-66, must occur during nighttime hours as it takes place over I-66, and requires multiple lanes of I-66 to be closed. This type of traffic-impacting work must occur when traffic is lightest and multiple lanes can be shut down on I-66.” Since the COVID-19 pandemic, traffic volumes have been lighter, and VDOT was able to provide the contractor with greater flexibility in extended lane closures. “This flexibility has helped construction to progress. VDOT monitors traffic volumes and commute patterns daily and makes adjustments to any extended lane closure provisions as needed.” Replacing all the bridges, including several over the Metrorail (Vaden Drive, Cedar Lane, Gallows Road and new ramps at I-495), also is a major undertaking. In addition, the eastern half of the project is being built in an urban area and already developed suburb with adjacent neighborhoods. Extensive utility relocations are always a concern for crews working in this type location. As for construction already completed, Holland said, “The focus has been on shifting traffic to the inside of the roadway while work occurs on the outside. Once construction on the outside of I-66 is completed, traffic will be shifted to the outside, so that crews can rebuild the inside lanes and create the new express lanes. Construction activities have included extensive utility relocation, noise wall demolition, small charge blasting to remove adjacent and underground rock and demolition of bridges.” Key tasks remaining include finishing construction on outside of I-66 (earthworks, noise wall construction, paving to shift traffic to newly paved outside lanes) and bridge construction. Priority will then shift to construction on the inside of I-66, including the center of I-66 to build the new express lanes, dedicated access ramps to and from the new express lanes, connections to interchanges and continued work on the general purpose lanes. As of August 2020, a total of 47 of 70 bridges are under construction, and seven bridges are nearly complete. Also, 98 of 197 retaining walls are under construction, with twodozen nearly finished. Additionally, 12 out of 22 new noise walls are under construction, and two are complete. Holland noted that the planned summer shutdown of the Metrorail Orange Line has provided a helpful window for accelerated construction that needs to occur over the Metrorail lines, including demolition and new bridge beam lifts at Cedar Lane Bridge, new bridge construction at Gallows Road and new bridge beam lifts at I-495. Under normal Metrorail operations, construction must be coordi-

nated nightly, and is generally limited to a short number of hours per night over the rails and stations. Noise wall and retaining wall construction is progressing, with some sections complete. Box culverts have been built for both drainage and the shared-used path and connections. According to Holland, noise wall design and construction generates probably the most intense interest from adjacent residents and communities during the project’s planning phase and during construction. “The final noise analysis that shows detailed evaluation of whether noise walls are warranted, and the maps of where new noise walls will be built, are made available to the public on the project website. Most residents are interested in the timeline for replacement of their specific walls, including replacement of existing walls and construction of new walls. Schedules of the noise walls vary, but once the design-build contractor removes an old noise wall, our technical requirements in our project agreement requires that they replace it with the new noise wall generally within eight months, and must show continuous work during this timeframe.” The shutdown of the Cedar Lane bridge over I-66 for roughly six months will have an impact on motorists in the area. Cedar Lane traffic will be detoured to Gallows Road to cross I-66 during the closure. This includes bicycle and

pedestrian traffic, as well as Fairfax Connector bus. The project has worked with Fairfax County and the town of Vienna to monitor and address concerns about increased cut through traffic. As part of the demolition, crews used excavators with hoe rams, pinchers and crushers to remove concrete. Reinforcing steel and steel beams were removed with excavators and cranes. Steel was hauled away to be recycled. Concrete was crushed both onsite and offsite (to reduce nighttime noise for project neighbors) to be recycled. Some recycled concrete is being used elsewhere within the project. As for construction of new bridge abutments and piers, Holland said demolition and construction adjacent to Metro and the travel lanes has presented challenges. “Metro’s tracks need to be protected from debris and can make it harder to place machinery to perform work. The project benefited from the planned Metrorail Orange Line closure for major maintenance during summer 2020. Additionally, the project design for the new bridge and pier construction needed to accommodate the future express lanes and space needed for the Orange Line.” Excavation for the new north bridge abutment was straightforward. “The previous abutment was demolished and the area for the new abutment was excavated. Suitable material is being used or stockpiled as fill for use elsewhere in the project. Unsuitable material is being disposed of.” To date, weather has not been a major issue. “We have been fortunate so far to have had two winters with very little snowfall that impacted work,” said Holland. “We had record rainfall for the year in 2018, which impacted work. This summer we had the most 90-plus degree days in July that D.C. has ever had, followed by Tropical Storm Isaias. But weather delays are expected and planned for in the world of construction.” Early project work began in December 2017. The express lanes are scheduled to open in December 2022. CEG

Car Free Lane Construction Work Nears Finish on Two Washington, D.C., Streets Washington, D.C.’s District Department of Transportation (DDOT) announced construction of Car Free Lanes on 7th Street NW and M Street SE began Aug. 17. According to DDOT Director Jeff Marootian, the project is part of a yearlong effort to improve bus performance and safety throughout the District, thus fulfilling a commitment of D.C. Mayor Murial Bowser’s administration. “These Car Free Lanes will not only increase bus travel speeds and reliability but will also help reinvigorate business and commuter activity in the downtown area,” he added. Car Free Lanes are part of DDOT’s Bus Priority Program, Bowser’s initiative to enhance bus service across all eight wards of the District. Beginning Aug. 17, motorists, pedestrians and cyclists should expect the following traffic impacts on 7th Street NW: • Removal of all on-street parking on 7th Street NW from Pennsylvania Avenue NW to Massachusetts Avenue
NW, • Intermittent, alternate lane closures on 7th Street NW in both directions for installation of sidewalk extensions and, • Periodic closures of Metrobus zones and commercial loading zones. Starting on or about Sept. 14, these roadways will be restricted to buses, bicycles, and trucks 24 hours a day, seven days a week: • 7th Street NW (between Pennsylvania Avenue NW and Massachusetts Avenue NW), • G Street (between 7th Street NW and 8th Street NW) and, • Construction is expected to last approximately 60 days. Also, around Sept. 14, the M Street SE Car Free Lane portion of the project should begin and will entail: • Curbside lanes on M Street SE between 10th Street SE and Half Street SE being closed in both directions intermittently and restricted to only buses and bicycles during the morning and evening rush hours (existing offpeak parking will be restored once the
project is complete) and, • Construction is expected to take about 30 days. After the Car Free Lanes are open, the DDOT said the street upgrades in downtown Washington will allow Metro and Circulator DC buses to efficiently operate their routes, supporting improved bus travel times and reliability. Additionally, the 7th Street NW project should improve pedestrian safety with expanded sidewalks for social distancing. Car Free Lanes will be designated with red curb paint and bicycle sharrow, or shared-lane, markings. DDOT plans to study the performance of buses and other multimodal traffic in the corridor to assess benefits, impacts, and necessary refinements. The mission of the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is to enhance the quality of life for District residents and visitors by ensuring that people, goods and information move efficiently and safely with minimal adverse impact on residents and the environment.
ASAE Recognizes ARTBA as One of 100 Associations That Will ‘Save the World’ The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) has been named as one of 100 associations “that will save the world” by the American Society of Association Executives. The summer 2020 centennial issue of the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) magazine, Associations Now, recognized ARTBA in the safety category for its contributions to establishing “Smart Infrastructure.” “Collectively, these associations and many others are conducting research, convening experts and advocates, and deploying volunteers to advance healthcare, improve local communities, fuel businesses, and advance equity in the workforce and society,” said the magazine’s Editor-
in-Chief Julie Shoop. “And this year, many have turned on a dime to respond to the COVID-19 crisis, even as they feel the devastating impact of the pandemic themselves.” “This honor is a testament to the innovations and vision of the more than 8,000 ARTBA members who strive each day to make our transportation systems safer and more efficient for the general public and the workers who build them,” said Dave Bauer, ARTBA president and CEO. The magazine noted that 118-yearold ARTBA is working to jump-start the transportation infrastructure network in the 21st century by making it smarter. “That means autonomous cars, road sensors to help traffic flow safe-
ly and use of hyperloops — sealed pods in frictionless tubes — to transport people and products,” Associations Now said. What will that success look like? “Sensors in the road and new design and construction techniques help keep vehicles moving,” ARTBA Executive Vice President and COO Matthew Jeanneret told the magazine. “The nearly 36,000 annual highway fatalities have largely been eliminated.” ARTBA’s ally, the American Public Transportation Association (APTA), was the other industry group named to the ASAE list.

Advocates Push for Proposed Maglev Train Project Between Baltimore, Washington Scientists first came up with the idea of using superconducting magnets to levitate a train car above a concrete guideway to dramatically increase both its speed and power. These electromagnets are cooled to extreme temperatures during use, which greatly boosts the power of the magnetic field. Known as Maglev train technology, superconducting magnets suspend a train car above a U-shaped concrete guideway. Like ordinary magnets, these magnets repel one another when matching poles face each other. By 2004, the first commercial passenger use of such trains was operating in Shanghai at speeds above 300 miles per hour. In the United States, several Maglev routes are being explored to connect cities such as Baltimore and Washington, D.C. Now, advocates for the technologically advanced service are pushing for construction to move forward on a proposed Maglev project to connect the two mid-Atlantic cities, along with other populated area in the Northeast.
The enterprise would cost about $10 billion, but officials with Baltimore’s Metropolitan Regional Council of Carpenters Union said July 30 the jobs it would bring will help the entire region. Maglev officials joined labor leaders in calling for the high-speed rail project to proceed. “It’s going to change things here in Maryland, and it’s going to be unionbuilt,” said Wayne Rogers, CEO of Northeast Maglev. A Maglev train traveling 311 miles per hour could connect Washington, D.C., to New York in an hour, and Washington, D.C., to Baltimore in 15 minutes. “It’s going to change the difference from a person being able to say, ‘Maybe I make my kid’s baseball game in the afternoon instead of leaving work and being stuck in traffic,’” Rogers added. Local East Coast chambers of commerce endorsed the project in December, as did the Carpenters Union, saying construction alone will create 74,000 jobs in the region.
Another 1,500 jobs would be permanent. “The ability to travel so quickly from Washington, D.C., to New York and all the airports in between will facilitate an economic development expansion that is unprecedented,” said William Sproule of the Metropolitan Regional Council of Carpenters. “I can appreciate this will be a building boom for construction, for technology, but we have a lot of problems with our existing railway lines that we have to fix,” explained Laurel City Councilman Mike Leszcz, adding he also has concerns about the project’s cost and impact on the environment. An environmental impact study, which federal and state officials are currently drafting, would analyze those concerns. Public hearings would follow the release of that environmental impact study. The first leg of construction, alone, would take seven years. A route for the proposed line connecting Washington and Baltimore has not yet been selected.
I-70 Road Repairs, Paving Scheduled Near West Virginia Welcome Center Motorists traveling on Interstate 70 past the West Virginia Welcome Center can expect to see construction crews making repairs and repaving that section of highway near the Pennsylvania state line after longwall mining moved beyond that location. The interstate improvements are east of Wheeling in West Virginia’s northern panhandle. In addition to upcoming road repairs, it is likely the welcome center building will remain closed until the next panel of longwall mining passes by that location early next year, said West Virginia Division of Highways (DOH) Area Engineer Mike Witherow. Still, he added, the DOH is looking at options for temporarily reopening the center soon. “Right now, we are in a holding pattern because there is a chance the welcome center could experience effects from the next longwall panel,” Witherow explained. “We’ll have another panel [move through], probably in January or February.” This past April, The Hughes
Corporation, of Sycamore, Pa.,, began mitigation work on the welcome center to minimize structural damage to the building as a result of possible ground subsidence. The problem arose from mining being performed hundreds of feet beneath the site by the Tunnel Ridge Coal Co., which hired Hughes to perform the mitigation work, including dividing the building into three sections. Then, in late May, the current longwall panel encroached beneath the embankment on the eastbound side of the highway before moving beneath the welcome center in June. Witherow said July 21 the DOH hopes to finalize plans for making repairs to that section of highway and begin work within a week or two. “We ran a mobile LiDAR [survey technology] on the roadway in order to redesign the roadway profile to meet the 70-mile-per-hour speed limit,” he explained. According to Witherow, the DOH expects to make some “asphalt lifts”
due to ground subsidence in areas of the relief joints. “That’s where we see a lot of movement. We do milling to keep it safe and do a little bit deeper base repair at those locations,” he said. “We should be out there real soon doing the paving work.” After the repairs and paving, Witherow is hopeful that traffic will be able to return to two lanes in both directions in several weeks. Until then, the Ohio County Sheriff’s Department continues to monitor traffic in the area. Motorists encountered weeks of delays on the interstate on the eastern edge of Ohio County on two separate occasions in 2019 as a result of the longwall mining operations. Witherow said the coal company is scheduled to make several more passes beneath the highway in that general area over the next few years. “There are a few more [coal] panels to come and it will be going on for the next couple of years,” he said.

Diverse Work Calls for Diverse Mix of Heavy Equipment GILL from page 18
This partnership started far from home, though, at a job site in Delaware. A recycling firm years ago hired Ratoskey & Trainor for a job there, where Trainor spotted an orange wheel loader. He hopped inside and liked what he found. When Trainor asked the machine’s owner who sold it to him, he heard a familiar name: Armand Cencetti. Trainor remembered the name: Armand had been by his yard before so Trainor called him and had a Doosan wheel loader brought out the next day. But the big business came with the quarry. “That’s when they got their DX420LC-5, DX350LC-5 and the DA30-5 trucks,” Cencetti said. “Previously, I was selling them more DL250s, DX180LCs and DX225LCs. They definitely went to large-frame equipment when they bought the new property. Best Line Equipment has sold 16 Doosan machines in all to
A
Ratoskey & Trainor, including a DL550-3 wheel loader, two DX180LC-3 crawler excavators and a DX80R mini-excavator. The company’s fleet is now 90 percent orange.” Productivity In The Pit Trainor and Ratoskey’s quarry contains argillite, a sedimentary rock used to make highways. And getting it from the ground takes a slew of heavy equipment. It starts with a bang as a controlled explosion in the quarry breaks the stone into manageable chunks. Then, at the quarry floor, DX350LC-5 excavators with hydraulic breakers split up any larger rocks. Wheel loaders place the stone inside DA30-5 articulated dump trucks (ADTs) to transport it topside. Once out of the quarry, a DX225LC-3 excavator dumps the stone into a crusher. Excavators both bigger and smaller are available for the job, such as the DX300LC-3 and DX180LC-3, but
the mid-sized DX225LC-3 fits the bill perfectly, Trainor explained. “If we use the giant machine, you’d put one giant scoop in it and then you’d be sitting there for 10 minutes until the crusher did its business,” Trainor said. The DX225LC-3, however, “is the exact size for the reach and to handle what the bucket can hold.” The excavator comes in handy later, too. When the crusher shuts down, Trainor’s crew attaches a breaker to it to let the machine slam away on materials. The crushed stone then gets mechanically screened into sizes approved for road construction by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. One size goes into highways. Another ends up beneath concrete. One fine grade is purchased for underground gas lines. “Definite, Noticeable Fuel Savings” For maximum savings, Trainor’s heavy machines run
mostly in eco-mode — even the articulated dump trucks hauling tons of argillite. Unless an operation like hammering requires the extra oomph, Trainor said, he’d always rather save fuel. “There’s a definite, noticeable fuel savings in eco with loading the crushers every day,” Trainor explained. “You’re loading, and it’s all loose material so you don't really need all that power.” Beyond saving fuel, the firm also saves concrete from sanitary landfills. The recycling business at Gill Quarries has grown exponentially over the past few years, a trend Trainor sees continuing. “Our quarry might have 800,000 to a million tons of reserve, so eventually recycling will be a lot larger part of the dayto-day operation of the quarry,” he explained. In its early days, Ratoskey and Trainor’s team would sell about 100 tons of recycled materials each week. That number’s now up to 1,000 tons a week. The recycled
material can be used the same way as virgin material. “It’s really catching on,” Trainor said. “Eventually all we will sell as an aggregate is recycled material.” Ready for the Future As business partners, Ratoskey and Trainor have stayed open to change. In the early years, their business centered on residential jobs: demolishing houses, digging basements, septic and storm work — whatever needed doing. Now, with the quarry operation and booming recycling work, the two remain open to whatever’s next. Trainor and Ratoskey employ around 40 workers between both businesses, taking crews throughout Pennsylvania and beyond. “Wherever our customer base sends us, if we can go and help, we do,” Trainor said.

New England Rock Poses No Challenge for Griffin Brothers In 2006, Garrett and Bill Griffin took a big leap of faith and, with some financial backing from their parents, started Griffin Brothers Excavation LLC. The first few years were tough. Small homeowner projects such as septic systems and other residential type work was all that seemed to be available to them. Then came the big recession in 2008. But the brothers stayed the course, worked very hard and eventually made it. Today, the company has 14 employees and boasts an equipment fleet that includes nine excavators, three loaders, two haul trucks, three dozers and a brand-new Powerscreen Premiertrak 330. Approximately five years into the (L-R): Taylor Carey, technician, and Garret Griffin and Billy Griffin, all of Griffin Brothers company’s growth, as their projects Construction; and Graham Wylie, Powerscreen New England. expanded into small road building projects and some commercial subdivision Multiple conveyors allow for production of work, it became obvious to the brothers that multiple size materials. they needed to invest in some crushing and screening equipment. The economics weren’t quite right for them to invest in a brand-new spread, but that did not stop Graham Wylie, their sales representative with Powerscreen New England, from finding a way to help them out. The boys acquired an older Powerscreen Chieftain that got Griffin Brothers in the business of screening topsoil as well as other spec’ed material, and it wasn’t long after that a used Metro Trak portable tracked jaw crusher was added to the mix. Connecticut is known for its rocky conditions and as Griffin Brothers expanded its operation the need to be able to crush rock and have the ability to produce its own aggregate for re-use elsewhere on site without bringing in outside contractors was imperative. By putting together a used package that met its needs, Wylie was able to assist Griffin Brothers in reaching its next level of growth. By producing its own aggregate and topsoil and at times selling what it produced, er projects. “One of the challenges in the New Griffin Brothers was able to greatly increase Unfortunately, with larger projects comes England market, besides the hard rock, is the its profitability.

Giorgio Carera: Fifteen Years of Leadership at FAE USA Building and rapidly growing a brandnew distribution and a dealer network in North America is a daunting task for any group to undertake. In the case of FAE, one person — Giorgio Carera — took on this task for the Italian land clearing and construction equipment manufacturer and created a deeply rooted FAE USA operation, which continues to maintain rapid growth on a monthly basis. He not only met the company’s goals, he shattered their expectations. “Giorgio has always been an important contributor for the company and a strong pillar for FAE,” said Diego Scanzoni, president of FAE Group. “He is a man that puts the company before everything else, just as he does with his family. He is a manager that never gave up in tough times and to whom challenges gave an even stronger motivation to make FAE USA successful. He has a great passion for the company, the industry and the business. He is a man of integrity that regenerates strategies to improve the company each and every day. In the course of these last 15 years, he has been able to adapt and grow with the company and to pass down his great passion and love for the product to his team. Together, we will achieve more goals and success.” Carera came on board as CEO in early 2005 in the very infancy stage of the company with the primary focus on the U.S. marketplace and was charged with the responsibility of putting down roots and setting the
stage for initiating a rapid growth of distribution. FAE USA initially started in a small warehouse space in Grayson, Ga., and had exactly two committed dealers — one on the West Coast, one on the East Coast, and the original operation setup consisted of just two people. After Carera came on board, he set out to find suitable land and the best deal for building a new purpose-built facility for the North American headquarters. This endeavor brought him to select Hall County and the Flowery Branch/Oakwood area in Georgia to be the best selection and the most inviting
and industry friendly community for this long-term commitment. The organizational chart for many manufacturers sees their top leadership in the capacity of CEO or director for an average of maybe seven to eight years. At FAE USA, Carera has been in the CEO position for 15 years. Given the success he has achieved, the passion for the growth of the company and his commitment to the quality of the product line, there seems to be absolutely no letting up or stepping aside for Carera anytime in the near future. There seems to be a contagious philosophy that Carera holds that per-

vades the entire organization. That philosophy includes the simplistic values of treating people right, having fun and completely and totally enjoying what you do. Today, FAE USA has well over 30 fulltime employees, more than 300 dealers in the United States, and the company continues to add high quality staffers to the organization on an annual basis. The retention of staff members is a testament to Carera’s business philosophies of quality people — selling and servicing a quality product. When Carera was recently interviewed for his assessment and thoughts about FAE, he started by saying, “The ownership is very dynamic, innovative and they have a focused vision. Narrowed down to my personal business thoughts, I see FAE as a great company, with a great product and top-notch support. They gave me a solid opportunity and the freedom to develop it as I see fit. Bottom line, I continue to see a big future for myself because of the innovation of the company as a whole. “FAE constantly evolves and now has more than 1,000 dealers globally,” added Carera. “I find it exciting to be a part of a company that sets industry standards for a wide range of products. FAE is a company that continues to grow and invest in human capital, innovation and marketing. The leadership at the top tier is solution-based and very proactive in all sectors of our business.” The company is seeing record sales months in 2020, and every year becomes better than the one before. So, life is good for Carera who enthusiastically said, “I look forward to the next 15 years as FAE USA’s CEO.”
FAE produces a wide range of skid steer/compact track loader and excavator mulcher heads.

The Cat engine gives us a confidence level that if something were to go wrong, we know we will be able to get up and running in no time as far as the engine is concerned.” The crusher also is equipped with Powerscreen Pulse Intelligence, a GPS driven system that allows Griffin Brothers to monitor location, start and stop times, fuel consumption, production levels, jaw set-
tings, wear ratings, operating hours, maintenance status, as well as alert Powerscreen New England if service is needed. Since the purchase of the new machine, Griffin Brothers has experienced dramatic increases in production with decreased input costs, all with the perfect size machine. “If the machine was any larger than the 40-ton size, we would have the inconvenience of having to use a 4 axle trailer in a lot of these tighter rural areas, as well as it would have required additional permitting. When we arrive on site, the machine requires literally no setup, and it’s sized perfectly to be for fed from our 2-3 yard excavators,” Bill Griffin said. “The machine has met all of our expectations. Production levels are higher than anticipated, its breaking bigger rocks than anticipated. It has literally done everything Graham told us it would do. This machine was sitting on the production line in Ireland when the COVID pandemic struck and we literally had to wait months to get our machine. It was very much worth the wait.” For more information, visit www.powerscreen-ne.com. CEG

Some of the most innovative construction sites use MB Crusher machines to facilitate the work and increase business, according to the company. “If you think of construction work as easy, let us tell you that you are wrong,” the company said, adding that at almost any stage of the job, difficulties can arise. And every problem must be solved quickly and without incurring additional expenses. Everyone solves difficulties in their own way, either with the machinery they already own or by adopting new processes that not only solve their problems but allows them to generate revenue. “Sometimes, however, customers surprise us,” MB Crusher said. “In a truly brilliant way, they solve problematic situations using our machinery in a way we would have never thought.”
“If you think of construction work as easy, let us tell you that you are wrong.”
Demolish Not Destroy: The Grapple With a Delicate Touch On a construction site in Japan, it was necessary to demolish a wooden house without destroying or ruining the material. Traditional three-tooth claw grapples, make it difficult to remove and move the small pieces of wood. The MB-G900 grapple removed the wooden planks, and delicately and precisely moved them without destroying the material. Using the MB-G900, the house was deconstructed, not just demolished. The job was completed quickly, accurately, and without additional costs. At the Port, Work Never Stops At the port of Conakry, Guinea, approximately 2 million tons of goods get trafficked every year. A $774 million dollar restoration project was under way, which included the restoration of the handling and storage area that had begun to deform after continuous storage and movement of heavy cargos. Elimination of the existing self-blocking concrete blocks used to reinforce the subsoil is no easy task, let alone trying to replace them while the port activity continued. The solution the construction site adopted was using a BF80.3 crusher bucket — with this agile and compact unit they managed to crush the existing blocks on the spot, reduc-

ing them to a size of 0 to 3 cm. They then mixed the crushed material with the existing sub-base, creating a mixture capable of withstanding heavy loads. All done in a small space, without using trucks and disposing of waste material: three successfully attained goals. So Clean It’s Beautiful Trentino Alto Adige, Italy, is known for its aesthetically pleasing public greenery: everything is treated in detail, flowers and other decorations are always perfectly arranged. A landscaping company was tasked to clean dirty natural stones to create flower beds and fencing and decorative retaining walls without disturbing the surrounding areas. The solution they adopted was to use the MB-S18 screening bucket with 80 mm panels to select and clean the stones inside a tight, water-filled container. Good-bye Weeds In France, a mountain valley in the southeast had been overrun by the Japanese knotweed (which is commonly known as the “Polygon of Japan”): more than 1,196 sq. yds. of biodiversity was at risk. The task was to eliminate the weeds without the use of trucks to move tons of soil out. The inventive idea was to use an MBHDS320 shafts screener to pull live rootstalk and mulch it. This would deem the rootstalk unfit for regeneration, and it was no longer able to infest the land. Even in a Mine A new tunnel had to be created in a mine in Sinaloa, Mexico. The obstacle? To find a machine that could create the mine with precision and be effective in tight spaces. The company thought to use a tool that hadn’t been used in a mine before: the MBR900 drum cutter. They mounted the unit on a Komatsu PC200 and created an underground tunnel with millimeter precision.

An immediate focus of the industry is receiving emergency funding during the pandemic. The American Logging Council is spearheading an effort to include the logging and trucking industry in the next COVID-19 financial relief bill. Scott Dane is a former merchant marine careerist who segued into a leadership role in the Minnesota logging industry.
By Giles Lambertson CEG CORRESPONDENT
Scott Dane is a former merchant marine careerist who segued into a leadership role in the Minnesota logging industry. Recently, the marine engineer “capped” his diverse career with a national appearance on TV as a speaker at the Republican National Convention — he wore a “Make Logging Great Again” cap during his talk. The television pitch wasn’t show biz for Dane, however. It was a serious attempt to bring to the nation’s attention the straits in which the timber and logging industry finds itself. “Logging is the most dangerous job in the country, but we embrace that risk because we know America was built by strong people building things together,” he told the viewing audience. “America needs us to keep building, and we can’t wait to be part of it.” His appearance at a political event came about because the Trump administration in Washington has been supportive of the industry. The administration gave logging a boost when it imposed a tariff averaging 20 percent on Canadian lumber shipments into the United States. Washington justified the

duties on the wood products because most of the timber industry in Canada is provincially owned and is harvested at artificially low cost — it is subsidized, in other words, which violates established fair trade rules. Dane is executive director of Contract Loggers & Truckers of Minnesota. He responded to a telephone interview from Virginia, Minn., approximately 90 mi. south of the Canada-U.S. border. “Every day we would watch train after train go by, heading south from Canada and loaded with Canadian wood products. By imposing duties, that has leveled the playing field some-
what.” The subsidy dispute has gone on for about 40 years. In 2017, President Trump imposed the tariff to restore some competitive pricing. However, the World Trade Organization has sided with Canada in the trade argument, saying the United States hadn’t proven its contention. Dane said the WTO decision is not decisive. “The World Trade Organization doesn’t currently have a full complement of seated members so it’s not able to enforce its decision. It can’t implement it.

Scott Dane Brings Logging Industry Issues Into Spotlight During RNC LOGGING from page 68
maintain the tariff in the long term.” The tariff may lead to talks. In early August, the National Association of Home Builders sent a letter to the administration complaining of increases in lumber prices. It appealed to U.S. lumber companies to “ramp up production” and make it a “priority to work with Canada on a new softwood lumber agreement.” In Minnesota, logging and wood products industry is top heavy and struggling. At the turn of the 20th century, the state had 30,000 loggers felling pine and other softwood trees. Sawmills were set up near prime pine forests with some two billion board feet of lumber produced annually. But mills have been closing in recent decades and the number of people today dropping and handling the timber totals just 1,500, according to Dane. “Everything downstream from the logging operations — the mills and manufacturing plants — are depending upon 1,500 people in the woods. If something doesn’t happen, we will see the industry decline further,” the executive director said. His organization represents about 175 logging companies and another 50 or so associate members such as John Deere and Caterpillar, manufacturers of logging equipment. In any given month, about 150 of the logging firms are felling trees. One reason the number of logging camp personnel has shrunk dramatically is the modern equipment used to handle the trees. Where 80 to 100 lumberjacks used to work together, a typical operation today numbers two to four people. The number varies, Dane said, depending upon whether the logging is being done conventionally or is a cut-to-length operation. In conventional logging, the camp might have four people operating four machines — a tree-dropping piece of equipment called a feller buncher that saws a tree and lays the logs in an orderly pile, a skidder or two with grapples that drag the logs to an access road, and a knuckleboom loader to place the logs on ribbed semi-trailer trucks for hauling to a mill. Cut-to-length jobs get by with a couple of machines in many cases — a harvester that drops a trunk, delimbs it and saws it to a desirable length, and a for-
warder, which is an articulated machine carrying a hoist that can pick up the pre-cut logs, deposit them on its trailer and haul them to an access road for offloading. So, all those lumberjacks hand-sawing the timber and manhandling it are history. “Mechanization has changed the industry tremendously,” Dane said. “It has made it more productive and safer.” The markets that need fixing now, he said. Minnesota’s pine trees become lumber products, but its spruce, aspen and birch forests are mostly turned into paper products. “We need new markets,” Dane said. “Paper demand continues to decrease. We have been working to transition into the bio-crude market, which is really exciting.” A pilot plant in Canada has been distilling wood into the synthetic petroleum product. A mill in Bemidji is prepared to invest $120 million if the new market develops. The holdup to such investment is yet another dispute, this time with the Environmental Protection Agency. “The bureaucratic holdup in the EPA has been going on for three years,” Dane said. The agency’s definition of what constitutes acceptable biomass feedstock for the bio-crude operation is a loner among public oversight groups, he said. “We’re working with this administration to overcome the objection. We have spruce forests that we can’t harvest until it’s determined if it can be used for biomass feedstock. It’s tied the hands of those working on the biocrude refinery.” Another issue that the current administration has helped out on is more favorable forest management policies. Forest management is a national issue, though not an overriding one in Minnesota where federal timberland constitutes just 10 percent of the total. The issue is between the environmental community and the timber industry, with the ecological lobby arguing against incursions into the forest. The industry responds that logging trees and thinning dead forest stock helps protect standing trees by lessening the hazards of uncontrolled fires, such as the ones currently ravaging parts of California and other Western
states. Dane has a son in a firefighting helicopter crew in Oregon, so he is personally familiar with the issue. “For forest fires, you need oxygen and fuel. We can’t take oxygen out of the air and we can’t eliminate lightning strikes,” he said. “The only component of the fire that we can address is fuel. Through proper forest management, we can reduce the fuel load in the woods.” He said the Trump administration has promoted more timbering on federal land and has “streamlined” forest management rules. An immediate focus of the industry is receiving emergency funding during the pandemic. The American Logging Council is spearheading an effort to include the logging and trucking industry in the next COVID-19 financial relief bill. Why it wasn’t included in the first financial recovery bill is unclear, but inclusion in the next bill has support across political parties and in both houses of Congress. Two members of Minnesota’s congressional delegation are co-sponsoring the legislation. “It is critical that we save the mills and trucking industry for when the pandemic ends,” Dane said. The industry is asking for $2.5 billion in assistance. The infusion of cash will indirectly help logging equipment manufacturers and dealers, which have seen a slowdown in sales this year. Dane has led the Minnesota association for 16 years now. Though he has never logged, he is a Minnesota native and his great-grandfather worked in a Minnesota logging camp as a locomotive engineer. He is an executive now, but nevertheless remains a rolled-upsleeves guy who has welded for a living and is “used to getting my hands dirty.” Still, appearing before a national audience at a political convention is pretty exhilarating. Will it interest him in future political activity? He laughed at the suggestion. “Shortly after I returned home to Minnesota to raise my boys in the woods, I ran for state representative. I felt it was my civic responsibility to get involved. I didn’t win, but I found out how ugly politics can get. A friend asked recently when I was going to run for office again. Before I could say anything, my wife answered, ‘Not in this marriage.” CEG

Kenworth’s T880s Meet Challenge of Charah Solutions When Charah Solutions challenged Kenworth to meet its tough truck application specifications, the result was a success for its operations. “We had a wide range and mix of manufacturers’ trucks at different sites. I saw the need to come up with a better solution than anybody else had offered before,” said Gavin Nawrocki, fleet manager of Charah Solutions. “Kenworth advertises that they make the World’s Best trucks and I challenged them to do that.” Founded in 1987 and based in Louisville, Ky., Charah Solutions is a leading provider of environmental and maintenance services to the power generation industry. The company handles millions of tons of ash annually, which dramatically reduces the amount of ash sent to landfills and provides valuable recycled material. Today, Charah Solutions has operations in more than 50 coal-fired and nuclear power generation sites across the United States. “Cookie cutter trucks won’t work on our sites because of the off-road conditions we are faced with every day. We recognized we needed a severe duty, rigid frame truck that you could not just go to the dealer lot and buy. It would have to be engineered for us,” Nawrocki said. “I shopped around at all the different manufacturers and approached our local Kenworth dealer, [Palmer Trucks in Louisville]. We decided on Kenworth because they were the only company willing to engineer a truck specifically for us…for our application and our needs,” he said. “Like everybody else, we want to haul as much as we can. We knew our target goal was 40 tons on these trucks. So, for example, we had to have some super heavy duty rear ends, among other specifications. Kenworth was the only company that could do that at the factory level and not have to go aftermarket with a lot of add-on things,” he said. Today, Charah Solutions operates more than 100 Kenworth trucks. The lineup is led by 50 Kenworth T880 dump trucks — including some with PACCAR MX-13 engines. The T880s also are specified with Allison 4500RDS 5-speed automatic transmissions, PACCAR front axle and Meritor rear axles. The company expects delivery of 23 more T880s this year. The fleet also oper-
“We haul anywhere from 41 tons to about 46 to 48 tons a truck, depending on the weight and whether we are hauling wet or dry material,” said Travis Guillot, a Charah Solutions site supervisor.
ates four Kenworth C500s and a dozen Kenworth T370s. “We haul anywhere from 41 tons to about 46 to 48 tons a truck, depending on the weight and whether we are hauling wet or dry material,” said Travis Guillot, a Charah Solutions site supervisor at the company’s site in Lena, La. “We used to haul at this location with five trucks. It would take us from 15 to 20 loads per truck a day, and we worked six days a week. Since we went to the Kenworth C500,
we’re down here to about 10 loads per truck and operating five days a week, 10 hours a day. It cut down our hauling time big,” Guillot said. “We’re keeping up with the production at the plant, and minimizing the usage of our equipment, too. This material can do some damage when it gets wet and sticky. The C500 has been handling it.” “Absolutely what we wanted and what we needed. The Kenworth T880 and C500 have exceeded our expectations. Our maintenance
costs have been dramatically reduced. Driver retention has gone up. The Kenworths perform,” Nawrocki said. “Kenworth advertises that they make The World’s Best trucks. I challenged them to do that…and they did,” concluded Nawrocki. Charah Solutions is featured in a new video on the Kenworth YouTube site (www.youtube.com/watch?v=POKGRZTi5 Uc).

Mack Trucks announced the availability of Geotab Connected by Mack, a new integrated, expandable open telematics platform offering fleet management, Electronic Logging Device (ELD) and driver compliance solutions.
Mack Trucks announced the availability of Geotab Connected by Mack, a new integrated, expandable open telematics platform for fleet managers and drivers which includes access to fleet management, Electronic Logging Device (ELD) and driver compliance solutions. Geotab Connected by Mack is a cloudbased platform and requires no additional installation or hardware on 2015 and newer Mack truck models. “Mack Trucks is pleased to partner with Geotab to offer a cloud-based integrated platform for fleet management and driver compliance,” said David Pardue, Mack Trucks vice president of connected vehicle and uptime services. “Geotab Connected by Mack enables customers and drivers to generate multiple reports that can help them be more efficient and improve productivity — all through one integrated platform.” Included in Geotab Connected is Geotab Drive, an ELD application launched by Mack in 2019 which leverages cloud computing via Geotab, the global leader in IoT and transportation solutions. The device, factory-installed in every Mack vehicle, sends engine and
positional data to the cloud, which then generates automatic duty status logs. The driver can access these through the Geotab Drive app on a mobile device, allowing for an easy-to-use option to receive a comprehensive and accurate record of duty status. The cloud enables reports for hours of service, records of duty status and driver vehicle inspection reports. With no pairing process required, the vehicle will continue to record data regardless of the connection status of the mobile unit. Wireless interference will not impact reporting. “Geotab Connected by Mack equips customers with access to the data they need to help increase efficiency, monitor compliance and improve productivity,” said Scott Sutarik, vice president of Commercial Vehicle Solutions at Geotab. “As a company dedicated to optimizing fleet management, it is exciting to work together with Mack to not only increase value for customers through this robust fleet management offering, but also to help simplify the customers experience by offering one integrated, easy-to-use platform.” For more information, visit www.macktrucks.com.

IntercompWIM Delta Software Simplifies Inventory Tracking Intercomp, a manufacturer of portable vehicle weighing and measurement products, has made its IntercompWIM Delta software available to the global industrial scale market. The software is a stand-alone interface for customers to take advantage of the efficiency and cost-savings of Weigh-InMotion (WIM) technology while more accurately tracking bulk material inventory, in real time. IntercompWIM Delta automates weight collection to compare and calculate Gross/Net weights for vehicles hauling incoming and outgoing goods. IntercompWIM Delta compares records with matching vehicle IDs to calculate net, tare and gross weights. The system utilizes those values to determine the weight of incoming and outgoing materials. This data is then able to be forwarded to a third-party inventory software for real-time tracking or exported to a spreadsheet. Vehicle usage and overweight alerts also are saved and can be recalled or exported for later use. IntercompWIM Delta’s ability to control scales monitoring up to two lanes of traffic — for example, a dedicated inbound and outbound lane — simplifies how WIM scale technology is utilized for daily operations of nearly any type of business. When paired with IntercompWIM scales, the software completes a stand-alone system for small or large facilities. The software is available for purchase through any scale dealer that sells Intercomp’s line of Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) Strip Sensors, LS-WIM and portable LS630-WIM using a PC. IntercompWIM Delta automates weight collection to compare and calculate Gross/Net weights for vehicles hauling incoming and outgoing goods. For more information, visit intercompcompany.com.
Kenworth T880S Adds Set-Forward Fixed Grille Option The Kenworth T880S with set-forward front axle has added a new fixed grille option. A radiator-mounted grille is now available for the T880S equipped with the 114-in. BBC short hood. The new option allows the hood to be opened in applications where equipment is mounted to the front of the T880S. “The fixed grille is an excellent option for truck operators who use the Kenworth T880S as snowplows, cranes, vacuum trucks or other applications that require equipment mounted in front of the hood,” said Laura Bloch, Kenworth assistant general manager of sales and marketing. The T880S is offered with a set-forward front axle ranging from 14,600 to 22,800 lbs. and is standard with the PACCAR MX-13 engine with up to 510 hp and 1,850 lb-ft of torque. For weight-sensitive applications, the 10.8-L PACCAR MX-11 engine is 400 lbs. lighter than larger displacement engines and provides up to 430 hp and 1,650 lb-ft of torque. The Kenworth T880S offers low operating cost, excellent performance and productivity, and outstanding driver comfort. For more information, visit www.kenworth.com.

Ritchie’s Truck Tractor Sales Hit Record High in June In just one month, Ritchie Bros. sold more than 4,500 truck tractors in the United States — up 23 percent from the same time period last year. More than 5,500 trucks were sold globally during the same time period, which also is a new company record — up approximately 10 percent from the previous record set in December 2019. “On top of spillover from 2019, which was one of the largest repossession years we’ve ever seen,” said Rob Slavin, senior valuation analyst, Ritchie Bros., “we are seeing trucks come to us due to fleet resizing, dealer trade-in packages and trucks coming in from the energy sector, which has struggled in 2020.” Ritchie Bros. has particularly sold a lot of trucks in Texas — through its site auctions in Houston and Fort Worth, as well as through its weekly IronPlanet auction and MarketplaceE events.

what, but the prices are coming back.” The top make and model truck being sold at auction these days is the Freightliner Cascadia, with more than 650 units in the United States in June 2020. The depreciation curve is sharpest for 2+ and 9+ year-old-units. Other popular manufacturers include Peterbilt, International and Kenworth. “Another interesting trend we have seen in 2020 is an overall increase in end-user participation at our auctions,” said Calhoon. “Across all geographies we are seeing end-user participating increase, often by double-digits.”
New Production Slowing, While Auction Participation Increases “Supply chain disruption as a result of COVID-19 has affected truck production,” said Don Nash, territory manager, Ritchie Bros. “Meanwhile we are seeing record demand in our auctions. Our most recent auction in Fort Worth, Texas saw bidder registration increase 108 percent year over year.”
Buyers Products Breaks Ground on Bigger Warehouse Buyers Products, a manufacturer in the work truck equipment industry, is doubling the size of its distribution center and corporate headquarters in Mentor, Ohio, to accommodate the company’s growing business needs. The expansion includes 280,000 sq. ft. of 67-ft.-high, brand new warehouse space with 20 additional docks. Simultaneously Buyers will add another 17,500 sq. ft. of office space and expand its employee parking. “As customer demands continue to grow, it’s imperative that we keep up,” said Gary Kadow, warehouse operations manager. “Our customers know to come to us for excellent service and rapid delivery. They expect to get what they need delivered when they need it. This expansion ensures we continue to exceed those expectations.” Buyers current warehouse stands at 250,000 sq. ft. It was built in 2002 and expanded to its current size in 2007. On Aug. 18, a small groundbreaking ceremony was held in accordance with current social distancing guidelines to kick-off construction of the new expansion. The ceremony included brief statements from company leadership and a “Golden Shovel” ceremony to honor outstanding members of the Buyers team for their contributions toward the company’s ongoing success.

The Mack MD Series began full production Sept. 1 at Mack’s Roanoke Valley Operations (RVO) facility in the Roanoke Valley, Va.
Mack Trucks recently hosted a virtual deep-dive session about the all new Mack MD Series of medium-duty trucks for more than 300 people, who represented more than 200 different municipalities and companies, as well as their Mack dealers. The event highlighted key features of the MD Series exterior, such as sharp wheel cut for maneuverability and industry-best bumper-to-back-of-cab (BBC) measurement, as well as interior features, including a standard airride driver’s seat and an ergonomically designed dash. The event was designed to increase product knowledge about the new Mack MD Series, but also to allow customers to more completely understand why the MD is best suited for their needs. “With the addition of the Mack MD Series, Mack now offers a complete lineup of Class 6 to 8 vehicles, enabling us to deliver the right truck for our customers' needs, whatever that may be” said Jonathan Randall, senior vice president of North American sales of Mack Trucks. “Customer response has been outstanding, and we look forward to delivering on our Mack commitment to offering the best solution for each customer.” The session included important product information related to exterior and interior features and benefits, along with a Q&A session with Mack executives. The session was offered virtually and was filmed at Mack World Headquarters in Greensboro, N.C. Customers represented municipalities, beverage, construction, sand and gravel and fire. The Mack MD Series began full production Sept. 1 at Mack’s Roanoke Valley Operations (RVO) facility in the Roanoke Valley, Va. The Mack MD6, a Class 6 model, has a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 25,995 lbs., and the MD7, a Class 7 model, has a GVWR of 33,000 lbs. Both models
are exempt from the 12 percent Federal Excise Tax (FET). Both the MD6 and MD7 models are available in 4x2 configurations. These new medium-duty trucks will meet the needs of applications requiring dry van/refrigerated, stake/flatbed, dump and tank truck vocations. The MD6 model does not require a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) to operate for non-hazardous payloads. The Mack MD6 and MD7 models were designed with the driver in mind. Both offer comfortable and ergonomic features to ensure a quiet ride, according to the manufacturer. The exterior of the medium-duty models was inspired by the Mack Anthem, Mack’s highway model, matching its bold look and styling through the grille and hood design. The Mack MD Series will be supported through Geotab Go offering access to Mack OneCall agents, available 24/7 at the Mack Uptime Center based in Greensboro, N.C. The MD Series models feature a sharp wheel cut for optimal maneuverability in tough-to-navigate urban settings. The MD6 and MD7 models offer a BBC measurement of 103 in. and have a clear back of cab and top of frame rail to make it easy for body builder adaptations. The Mack Body Builder Support Team and the Mack Body Builder Portal will support the Mack MD Series, offering customers, body builders and dealers the tools needed for a quick upfit process of truck bodies and equipment. Mack MD model information on the Body Builder Portal will be available beginning Sept. 1. The Mack Body Builder Portal includes useful information, such as body builder manuals, wiring diagrams for electrical interfaces, Technical and Maintenance Council (TMC) recommended practices and information about diagnostic tools.

In the first week of July, the first Morooka MST-3000VDR rubber track carrier, with enhanced hydraulics and a larger bed, rolled off the line at the manufacturing facility in Ashland, Va. Morooka’s VDR models all feature an upper structure that can rotate 360 degrees in either direction independently from the undercarriage and tracks. This helps users reduce surface damage that occurs when turning the machine, as well as aiding users that have limited operating space, according to the manufacturer. The new MST-3000VDR is powered by a 300 hp Caterpillar C7.1 engine and can handle a maximum load of 36,000 lbs. Even so, it has a top speed of 8 mph and yet only exerts a ground pressure of 3.6-8.0 psi. Ken Byrd, founder and president of Morooka USA, recounted just how the new machine came to be. When Morooka customer Bobby Ross of Rosscapes Inc., in Canonsville, Pa., needed something with a bit more capacity than the MST-2200VDR, he turned to his local dealer, Anderson Equipment. Anderson Equipment, Rosscapes and Morooka America worked closely together to develop the MST-3000VDR, the largest U.S.-built rotator to date. The carrier’s power and carrying capacity allow Rosscapes to move dirt nearly twice as fast as before, according to the company. Rosscapes, which specializes in environmental restoration services such as wetland and stream restoration, currently has a fleet of five Morooka rotators and is looking to add more MST-3000VDR units in the future. The MST-3000VDR is currently available by special order only. For more information about Morooka, visit www.morookacarriers.com.

Manufacturer Sees Enormous Potential for Tiltrotators Although the tiltrotator phenomenon has been around for over 30 years, more than 97 percent of the world’s excavators still don’t have one. This is despite the fact that it streamlines digging and turns the excavator into an all-round multitool. The concept is well established in the Nordics and through Engcon the tiltrotator has gradually extended its reach globally. Excavators recognize the flexibility and efficiency the tiltrotator brings, improving profitability, enhancing safety and reducing the environment impact, according to the manufacturer. For a very long time the tiltrotator has been relatively unknown outside the Nordics. Due to Engcon’s communication work sharing information via its website, trade shows, advertising, press releases, articles, Krister Blomgren, CEO of Engcon Group social media and influencer marketing, the concept has become a global phe- smarter, according to Engcon. “From the fact that the excavator previnomenon. At this year’s ConExpo it became clear that many attendees were aware of the ously only dug a pit, new accessories have phenomenon and familiar through articles developed the excavator into a multi-tool and videos of how it helped excavators work that can dig, lift, pack, sweep. Most contrac-
tors want to be able to take on more jobs and solve them faster and smarter to make more money. We believe that the tiltrotator is the key to that,” said Krister Blomgren, CEO of Engcon Group.
Change the World of Digging Engcon has been working with its motto “Change the world of digging” for a long time and decided in 2020 to also use it as its vision. “That is exactly what we want to do in the long run. If we can get more excavators to be equipped with a tiltrotator, digging will be more profitable, efficient, flexible, environmentally friendly and also safer. We are simply changing the digging world,” said Blomgren. Only 2 to 3 percent of the world’s excavators today have a tiltrotator, which means that there is an enormous development potential for streamlining the industry and making it more environmentally friendly by using less resources in the form of materials, fuel and time. “To invest in a tiltrotator is to invest in the future and we believe that it is only a matter of time before it expands in larger markets like the USA. It is simply impossible to ignore the tiltrotator’s advantages,” Blomgren said. For more information, visit www.engcon.com.

Experience-Driven Solutions Spur Kage Innovation Offerings By Ruksana Hussain

CEG CORRESPONDENT
Kage Innovation, manufacturer of commercial snowplows based in Osceola, Wis., is introducing the new WingLine laser plow guide this year. The inexpensive and easy-toinstall plow accessory, made with municipal markets and city plow trucks in mind, casts a green laser line in front of trucks to indicate where the wing plow will appear so operators can avoid obstacles like mailboxes and guard rails. “It’s a little bit of help for operators of city trucks to become more efficient and safer,” said Mike Stephan, president, founder and inventor. “They do a tough job operating equipment while it’s snowing and there are people on the road. It will help them be more productive, stay safe and keep people safe around them as well.” In an effort to try to reduce the amount of salt usage and the resultAnother product Kage Innovations released ing damage and environmental impact from rock salt running into the lakes and rivers, LiquidRage late last year is the AdvantEdge flexible cutuses brine instead to keep parking lots ting-edge system, a floating sectional cutting clean and people safe from slips and falls. edge featuring universal mounting capability to any snowplow or snow pusher.

These are just two from the fleet of products that Kage has in the market for condominiums; apartments; parking lots and ramps; and driveways and pathways, many of which offer multiple variations as well. For instance, the SnowFire snowplow box system, which was the first product Stephan usage and the resulting damdesigned, is a 2-in-1 snowplow and pusher with seamless age and environmental impact from rock salt transition right from the cab. Intended for skid steers, comrunning into the lakes and rivers, Kage pact and large wheel loaders, telehandlers and tractors, the Innovation’s solution uses brine instead to keep parking lots snowplows measure anywhere from 6 to 14 ft. wide.

“I’ve always had a very strong desire to learn how to make and build things,” said Stephan, who grew up exposed to the landscape and snow mobile industries. His entrepreneurial outlook was nurtured from a young age in his father’s landscaping and horticultural services company. “I had the opportunity along the way to explore and tinker a lot. I was also allowed to take some of the ideas I had and run with them,” he said. With his invention as a driving force, Kage Innovation see KAGE page 94

Founder Calls Company ‘True American Dream Story’ KAGE from page 93
was formed 11 years ago — as an offshoot of his father’s company that still exists today — and now specializes in snow removal equipment and a series of products built upon the foundation of the 2-in-1 system. Originally established in a 3,000-sq.-ft. location in Oak Park Heights, Minn., with just two employees, Kage, now 26 full-time employees-strong, is housed in a 26,000-sq.-ft. manufacturing facility in Osceola, Wis., housed on 19.25 acres of land, with the opportunity to increase the building size by eight times. The company’s prime markets are in the Midwest, the St. PaulMinneapolis area, and then the east coast — all regions where there’s a low tolerance for snow, typically in the 0 to 2 in. range. Dealers are visited at their location to educate them on how to best sell Kage Innovation’s products. For customers, there are instructional and informational videos on YouTube and Facebook, many presented by Stephan himself, highlighting a quick update or features and benefits. The company blog also is a useful resource on their snow removal products. Kage has a unique selling model in that the company sells to both dealers and directly to customers. “We don’t want barriers to ownership of Kage so whatever is easier, the end user is the ultimate goal,” said Stephan. Kage also stocks parts and replacement or wear items and provides two-year warranties on structural manufacturing defects. Though peak sales are observed in the last quarter of the year, the pandemic had previously affected dealer orders. “It hit right when we were trying to release our preseason and preorder programs, so some dealers were not willing to make a commitment,” said Stephan. “We had to extend that to allow them to get their bearings and reopen. Sales have been down but not bad, we are looking forward to having an excellent fourth quarter.” Kage Innovation has witnessed exponential growth in the last decade and more that it has been in business. “We went from nothing to more than $10 million in sales. We are at the point now where we are controlling that growth and having it leveled intentionally,” he said. “We don’t want to grow too quickly. At the same time, we want to drive new products to the market as well.” Keeping that in mind, the biggest challenge is to not lose focus that the company is rooted in the snowmobile and landscape industries. “That’s our expertise and what we want to move toward is to make products and to grow in these markets.” Stephan observed that overall there is a lot more equipment being used vs. trucks in the snow removal space. He attributes part of that to Kage, and other manufacturers of pusher type equipment, educating customers on the experiences they had, that trucks were inefficient and much less effective than skid steers and other equipment when it comes to townhouse driveways and the like. Looking to the future, he has plans for five new patentable products in the next 5 to 10 years — Kage Innovation has three American patents and two Canadian patents covering SnowFire — and is ramping up to double the size of the facility and increase the number of employees up to 50.
“We have cracked the market wide open with a unique 2-in-1 tool, it makes the snowmobile contractor sometimes three times more efficient,” said Stephan. “That has been so impactful, saving time and money. It’s proven the success we’ve seen because we wouldn’t have been able to start a brand like this and grow it from nothing to what we have now without having a very unique and worthy product.” With support from his father invested in Kage Innovation to help get it started, Stephan admits it was a perfect storm of drive, ideas and resources coming together for this business to take shape and grow into its current avatar. “This is the true American dream story that happened. I’m really grateful for the opportunity, for the way my dad helped, and all the other people along the way that were a key component to the success we are all seeing now.” CEG

Feds Grant $400M to Four Major Projects The Trump Administration announced a total of $400 million in federal funding will be allocated by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to four transit infrastructure projects in Arizona, Indiana, Missouri and New Jersey. The projects are advancing towards readiness to receive a Full Funding Grant Agreement (FFGA) under FTA’s Capital Investment Grants (CIG) Program. The projects must meet additional requirements in law before a grant can be awarded. “This $400 million federal investment will help ensure that critical updates can be made to our country’s public transit systems so they remain safe and operational,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao. With this announcement, FTA has advanced funding for 39 new CIG projects throughout the nation under this administration since Jan. 20, 2017, totaling approximately $9.7 billion in funding commitments. “These critical rail transit infrastructure projects will help communities improve transit service as they continue to address the impacts of COVID-19 and recover from this public health emergency,” said FTA Deputy Administrator K. Jane Williams. The CIG Program provides funding for major transit infrastructure capital investments nationwide. Projects accepted into the program must go through a multi-year, multi-step process according to requirements in law to be eligible for consideration to receive program funds. CIG Projects Receiving Allocations Phoenix, Ariz.: Northwest Extension Phase II Project The Phoenix Northwest Extension Phase II Project is a New Starts project in the engineering phase of the CIG program. The project is a 1.5-mi. extension of the Valley Metro light rail system from the existing end of line station in Northwest Phoenix to the Metrocenter Mall. FTA is allocating $50.6 million in FY 2020 CIG funds to the project. Gary, Ind.: Double Track Northwest Indiana Project The Gary Double Track Northwest Indiana Project is a New Starts project in the engineering phase of the CIG program. The project is a 26.6-mi. second track on the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District (NICTD) South Shore commuter rail line in northern Indiana between Gary and Michigan City. FTA is allocating $50.6 million in FY 2020 CIG funds to the project. Kansas City, Mo.: Kansas City Streetcar Main Street Extension Project The Kansas City Streetcar Main Street Extension project is a New Starts project that is in the engineering phase of the CIG program. The project is a 3.5-mi. extension of the Kansas City Downtown Streetcar from the existing streetcar terminus at Union Station to the University of Missouri — Kansas City. FTA is allocating $50.8 million in FY 2020 CIG funds to the project. Hudson County, N.J.: Portal North Bridge Project The Hudson County Portal North Bridge Project is a Core Capacity project in the engineering phase of the CIG program. The project is construction of a new, two-track fixed structure railroad bridge across the Hackensack River in Hudson County, N.J., along the Northeast Corridor (NEC). The project will replace the existing bridge which is more than 100 years old and represents a significant operational bottleneck. FTA is allocating a total of $248 million in FY 2018 and FY 2019 CIG funds to the project.

We do not push our company culture down on our employees. We try to build everyone up to be their own leader by encouraging an environment of respect and hard work.” She added that she and A.J. want their employees to feel empowered to do their jobs, to take ownership of their work and improve their performance. When employees embrace a company’s vision, everyone wins. “There is a caring, positive workplace culture at Brex Enterprises and we believe our employees are happy to work here. That has an impact on our success.” • Integrity. Brentzel said everyone in the company is expected to follow the cardinal rule: Treat everyone the way that you want to be treated. That means consistently being honest, ethical and trustworthy.

N.J. Plans 9.3-Cent a Gallon Gas Tax Hike GAS from page 1
“The law enacted in 2016 contains a specific formula to ensure that revenue is meeting a certain target,” Muoio said. “When it does not, the gas tax rate has to be adjusted accordingly in order for us to meet our obligation under the law and fully fund the state’s many pressing transportation infrastructure needs.” That’s why contractors across the state welcome the tax increase, despite groans from other consumers at the mere thought of paying more for their vehicle fuel. Companies that build roads, bridges, marine facilities and install utilities understand they will be paying more for fuel, an industry advocate said, but realize those costs are offset by the substantial benefits of the added revenue. “Contractors see the tax increase as simply the cost of doing business,” said Robert Briant Jr., CEO of the Utility and Transportation Contractors Association of New Jersey (UTCA). “They know that without the increase we would have a heck of a lot less work.” He added that Garden State contractors may not get more projects from the increase; rather, they want to make sure the TTF program is going to continue to
be maintained. Briant, a long-standing member of New Jersey’s TTF Authority also was involved in helping to shape and enact the fund’s creation in 2016. When the TTF’s revenue collection process was still being worked out, prior to it becoming law, Briant said that one plan was to incorporate a consumer price index into the legislation. A CPI is an automatic increase in the gas tax as inflation goes up. Instead, the New Jersey Legislature and Christie built in a true-up, or adjustment, portion to the TTF bill. “With that, they were saying ‘We are going to put in x amount of money each year to fund this eight-year program and if collections go up, we drop the tax; if collections go down, we raise the tax” Briant explained. “Well, with the coronavirus, our use of gasoline has dropped dramatically. That’s why the gas tax is going up next month.” The state’s treasury department noted that consumption of gasoline declined by a total of 38.7 percent from March to May, while diesel fuel consumption declined by 16.5 percent. Due to the formula outlined in the law, the PPGR tax rate on gasoline and diesel
fuel will increase on Oct. 1 from 30.9 cents to 40.2 cents for gasoline and from 34.9 cents to 44.2 cents for diesel fuel. When coupled with the current 10.5cent Motor Fuels Tax rate on gasoline and the 13.5-cent rate for diesel fuel, the total tax rates for gasoline and diesel fuel in New Jersey will be 50.7 cents and 57.7 cents, respectively. Briant believes the gas-tax increase will only be temporary as more people take to the roads again and purchase more gasoline. “Next year, when we are back to normal, we’re going to collect a much higher amount than we did this year and there is going to be a gas-tax decrease. That’s what is going to happen,” Briant said with confidence. “This upcoming increase is 9.3 cents, but my guess is that in 2021 it may be cut by 8 cents — maybe even 9 cents — depending on how much we get back to normal during this fiscal year in collections from the PPGR and the gas tax.” Even before the upcoming increase, a study by the American Petroleum Institute shows drivers in New Jersey already pay the 10th-highest gasoline tax in the nation and the 7th-highest diesel tax.

Alta’s Chiles, 52, Passes Away Alta Equipment’s Robert Chiles, 52, of Grosse Ile, Mich., passed away on Aug. 16, following a boating accident. Mr. Chiles was president of Alta’s Construction Division. According to the Detroit Free Press, there were 14 people aboard the 39-ft. NorTech Center Console, including the Rev. Stephen Rooney, 66, pastor of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, and close friend of Mr. Chiles, who also perished in the accident. Alta Equipment Co. issued the following statement: “On behalf of our board of directors, management team and employees, we extend our deepest sympathies to Rob’s family and friends. He was a larger-than-life figure who brought his extraordinary passion, experience and leadership to Alta and the industry.” Alta Equipment CEO Ryan Greenawalt said the company is in mourning. “Rob has served as our construction group president since 2012. Under his tire-
less leadership, Alta Construction grew to be widely recognized as a leader in the heavy equipment industry, and an award-winning Volvo CE dealership. Rob has left an indelible mark throughout the Alta family,” said Greenawalt. Due to the pandemic, funeral services will be private. However, Alta Equipment will, in the future, celebrate Mr. Chiles’ life and share memories. For those who would like to share thoughts, memories, stories and condolences, email them to rememberingrob@altaequipment.com. Robert Chiles “No words can adequately express our sadness at Rob’s passing, or our gratitude for the opportunity to work with and know him,” said Greenawalt. Mr. Chiles is survived by three children, Robbie, 15, Isabella, 14 and Jacob, 10. His wife, Christine, passed away in September 2019. CEG
