Chadwick-BaRoss Inc. (CBR) has completed the acquisition of Southern Rhode Island Equipment Sales Ltd. (SRIES). The deal, which closed on Jan. 26, will result in the expansion of CBR’s operations into the state of Rhode Island, starting with the former SRIES location in Warwick. CBR also confirmed that it will be retaining all employees at the Warwick site as new members of the CBR team. “We welcome the SRIES employees to the CBR family,” said Randy Mace, president of Chadwick-BaRoss. “The Warwick team has done a tremendous job of building a great local business over the past 20 years, and we look forward to integrating them into our company and learning from the outstanding experience base that they bring to our operations.”

The Warwick branch will be CBR’s 6th location in the Maine-based company’s operations, which cover Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. “This acquisition is important for us,” said Mace. “The growth opportunity that SRIES represents is significant, but it also represents an important avenue for us to better support and service our existing customers in the neighboring areas where CBR already had a presence. We’re very much looking forward to building upon SRIES’s great relationships in Rhode Island, and continuing to represent the CBR brand throughout New England.” For more information, visit www.chadwick-baross.com.

Avangrid Renewables Commissions Firm’s First Project in Vt. Avangrid Renewables, a subsidiary of AVANGRID Inc. began commercial operation at its newest wind farm, and first in Vermont, the Deerfield Wind Farm, in the towns of Readsboro and Searsburg. The new wind farm construction, which created nearly 200 jobs at its peak and millions of dollars of local spending, is the first wind farm on U.S. Forest Service land in the country. “This project in concept has been at the forefront of our program of work for many years,” said John Sinclair, forest supervisor of the Green Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests. “Today we are proud to recognize the dedicated USFS employees, local leaders, partners and government agencies that have contributed countless hours of work toward making the development of our nation’s first commercial-scale wind energy facility on National Forest System lands a reality here in Vermont.” The two towns combined will receive direct annual pay-

ments expected to total $6.8 million over the life of the project, and the wind farm will generate an estimated $6 million in tax payments to the state to support education funding. “This project took a long time, but will deliver big benefits for everyone in Searsburg,” said Searsburg board member and town energy coordinator Mike Johnson. “It’s a giant boost for clean energy, and we believe the winds of time will prove their worth.” We are thankful for a job well done,” said Helyn StromHenriksen, the Selectboard chair from the town of Readsboro. “We are looking forward to the positive impacts this project will have on the area.” The 30-megawatt wind farm includes 15 Siemens Gamesa wind turbines which produce enough clean, renewable energy to power roughly 14,000 average Vermont homes annually. Avangrid Renewables will own and operate the wind farm, and sell the energy to Green Mountain Power

under a 25-year power purchase agreement. “We are able to celebrate this milestone because of the hard work of our many partners, especially at the local level,” said Dave Carroll, vice president of projects for Avangrid Renewables. “Working with Green Mountain Power, the U.S. Forest Service, and the local communities means we’re able to create clean energy and local economic benefits in rural Vermont.” The Deerfield Wind Farm construction has spent roughly $7.5 million locally. More than 25 New England-based companies worked on the wind farm, including 11 from Vermont, supplying a range of services from labor and materials to engineering and electrical work.

Gov. Malloy, CTDOT Postpone Transportation Projects Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) Commissioner James P. Redeker released a full list of projects totaling $4.3 billion that are postponed indefinitely until new revenue is appropriated for the Special Transportation Fund (STF). The governor made clear that his administration will announce detailed proposals this month that, if adopted by the General Assembly, would bring the projects back online.

The STF finances the state’s transportation system, including the operating costs of the CTDOT and all of the services it provides. Last month, Gov. Malloy reiterated and increased his warnings on the solvency of the fund following the release of a report showing that without prompt action, the STF will be in deficit by fiscal year 2019, which begins July 1, 2018. Hundreds of projects across the state, such as critical

improvements to the I-91/Route 15 interchange on the Charter Oak Bridge; the replacement of the Waterbury Mixmaster; and the widening of I-95 from Bridgeport to Stamford, are postponed indefinitely, or until resources are identified to allow projects to continue. Even routine highway maintenance and transportation aid to cities and towns are seriously jeopardized. “If Connecticut does not take the necessary action to allow us to restart these vital projects, not only will it put the state’s infrastructure into a further state of disrepair, it will hurt our economy,” Malloy said. “If we want to compete in the 21st century economy, we need a transportation system that works for people and businesses, and we need to invest in transit-oriented development to build the communities where people and businesses want to be. I want to be very clear — this is preventable, but it requires immediate action. The legislature must act this year to avoid potentially devastating setbacks to our transportation system.” “This isn’t a problem that can be punted until future years. Connecticut needs immediate action,” Redeker said. “As Governor Malloy noted last month, the solvency of the Special Transportation Fund is in doubt without new revenues. In real terms, that means we need to postpone indefinitely important projects today.” “The cupboard is bare. Without a dedicated, stable stream of revenue to the Special Transportation Fund, our infrastructure will continue to rot and decay,” State Representative Tony Guerrera, co-chair of the legislature’s Transportation Committee, said. “We sit at the precipice of a transportation tragedy that can be avoided by investing in roads and bridges. We must act immediately in the 2018 legislative session and institute tolls or another revenue stream to avert the oncoming crisis.” The Governor will be releasing his recommendations to ensure the solvency of the STF in advance of the 2018 legislative session.

Gov. Baker Forms Commission on Future of Transportation Gov. Charlie Baker signed Executive Order No. 579 on Jan. 23, 2018, establishing the Commission on the Future of Transportation in the Commonwealth to advise the Baker-Polito Administration on future transportation needs and challenges. The Governor named 18 appointees to the Commission, which will develop a range of scenarios anticipated between 2020 and 2040 and be used to inform the panel’s findings. The Commission will meet monthly and will provide a report on the analysis of members and make recommendations by Dec. 1, 2018. “This commission will advise our administration on the future of transportation in Massachusetts that sensibly accounts for impending disruptions due to changes in technology, climate, demographics and more,” said Baker. “Making informed transportation decisions and policy guided by the best analysis possible will be the foundation for success across the board in years to come to keep our innovation economy thriving and competitive.” “Members of the Future of Transportation in the Commonwealth Commission have generously agreed to help us chart an important future of the Commonwealth,” said Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito. “Our appointees bring exceptional institutional knowledge of our transportation history and a keen understanding of the challenges Massachusetts will need to address over the next several years.” “I look forward to working with members of the Commission, many of whom are professionally recognized as leaders in fields that will impact transportation, as we wrestle with a wide range of facts and trends to develop plausible scenarios and guidance to decision-makers and other stakeholders,” said Steven Kadish, who will chair the Commission. Eileen McAnneny, Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation (MTF) president, who will serve on the Commission, said its creation reflects MTF’s recent report that stressed how transportation is undergoing disruptive change. “This Commission positions the Commonwealth as a national leader in factoring the impacts of technological advances, climate change and changing transportation consumption habits into its capital investment and strategic planning processes,” McAnneny said. The Governor named 18 members with a range of backgrounds and skill sets to serve as unpaid members of the Commission, which will be chaired by Baker’s former Chief of Staff, Steven Kadish. The Secretary of the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs and the Secretary and

Beaton serving as ex-officio members, other members of the Commission include:

Massachusetts Governor

CEO of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation will serve as ex officio members. Commission members will focus on at least five key areas anticipated to have a dramatic impact on transportation in the future: • Climate and resiliency; • transportation electrification; • autonomous and connected vehicles, including ride-sharing services; • transit and mobility services; and • land use and demographic trends. “This is going to be a serious effort, with a broad range of experts who will seek to better understand and evaluate how technology and other forces in society will affect transportation in the decades ahead,” said Transportation Secretary and CEO Stephanie Pollack. “We believe Massachusetts is the first state in the nation to convene a group like this which will play an important role in looking at disruptive changes in transportation, an exercise that is essential to laying the foundation for any future transportation blueprint. Those same forces could affect the types of capital investments Massachusetts will need and should make as well as the sources of revenue to support such future infrastructure investments in the Commonwealth.” “The Baker-Polito Administration continues to utilize a collaborative approach to work across state government and with our cities and towns to reduce carbon emissions and prepare for the impacts of climate change,” said Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Matthew Beaton. “As Massachusetts continues its efforts to meet our commitments under the Global

Warming Solutions Act of 2008, the Commission on the Future of Transportation in the Commonwealth will be crucial in identifying solutions to achieving substantial greenhouse gas emission reductions from the transportation sector.” The Baker-Polito Administration began a series of statewide listening sessions in September 2017 to discuss possible solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector. Following the forums, state environmental and transportation leaders continue to develop the Commonwealth’s strategy to reduce transportation sector emissions, develop a comprehensive regional strategy for the deployment of zero emission vehicles, and increase the resilience of transportation infrastructure as the climate changes. The Commission will engage with a range of non-profit groups, academic thought leaders and other stakeholders. As needed, Commonwealth of Massachusetts knowledge experts in various secretariats will be providing information to the Commission. In addition to Secretaries Pollack and

for Economy, Energy By Patrick Whittle ASSOCIATED PRESS

Supporters of one of the most-debated power transmission projects in New Hampshire history said approval of the project is essential for economic and energy development in the state. The backers of the $1.6 billion Northern Pass hydropower project filed their final brief with the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee. The project would include a 192-mi. transmission line from Pittsburg to Deerfield. Northern Pass Transmission LLC is a subsidiary of Boston-based Eversource, and the submission of the final brief is a key step in the project’s approvals process. Northern Pass backers said in the executive summary of the brief that the proposal would have no view impacts in the White Mountain National Forest, Appalachian Trail or Franconia Notch areas. They also wrote that the proposal “has received the most extensive review of any electric transmission project in the history of New Hampshire” and would “deliver clean, affordable hydropower into the New England power grid.” The project is designed to carry hydropower from Canada to southern New England markets, providing power for about a million homes. Opponents who are skeptical of the economics and environmental impacts of the project have rallied against it and called on state regulators to prevent it from moving forward. The Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests filed a memo earlier this month stating the project would “pervasively and permanently scar the northern two thirds of our state with towers and transmission lines that cut through unique forest ecosystems and rise well above the tree canopy.” New Hampshire regulators completed hearings on the project in December. The Site Evaluation Committee is expected to begin deliberations about the Northern Pass application in the final days of January. Then, state regulators are expected to announce their final decision on the project by the end of March. Project supporters would like to begin construction by the spring. Their final brief states that the project would “create or generate 2,600 jobs during construction, with a commitment to hire NH workers first.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

FTA Provides First $100M in Promised Grant MBTA Funds The Federal Transit Administration has released the first $100 million of $996 million in promised grant funds to the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority for its 4.7-mi. light rail project that will build a Green Line Extension (GLX) from Cambridge to Medford. “Governor Charlie Baker’s commitment to responsibly manage taxpayer dollars in the building of this project was persuasive,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao. She said the Boston area “can now look forward to an enhanced transportation network as the Green Line is extended to serve tens of thousands of area residents daily.” The FTA and the Boston transit agency signed a full-funding grant agreement in 2015 to help fund the project. The MBTA is overseen by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation and the state’s Fiscal and Management Control Board. Stephanie Pollack, MassDOT secretary said news of the federal grant release “is the latest positive turn for an important project that was under construction in 2012 but

which was buried by cost overruns two years ago.” She said the state had “hit the pause button, addressed the cost overruns, led the effort to redesign the project to meet the affordability limit, worked with stakeholders including officials with the Federal Transit Administration and took other structural steps necessary to give the project new life.” The FTA said it was providing the funds after the MBTA “completed a series of reviews to redesign the GLX project to contain costs without sacrificing schedule,” and the state strengthened the MBTA’s project management team and governance structure. It also said the project adheres to the scope and benefits identified in the grant accord, with six new light rail stations, replacement or rehabilitation of eight bridges and a new pedestrian/bike path. The MBTA said the new line segment is projected to open for passenger service in 2021. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Empire Crane Company’s Luke Lonergan (R) spoke with Riccardo Magni, the inventor and founder of Magni telescopic handlers, at World of Concrete. Empire purchased two new 2018 Magni rotating telehandlers at World of Concrete in Las Vegas.

Empire Crane Company has purchased two new 2018 Magni rotating telehandlers at World of Concrete in Las Vegas. The two newest models, RTH6.30SH and RTH6.35SH, are going to be added to Empire’s New England rental fleet and will be available immediately. “People love the Magni units that we currently offer and can’t say enough good things about the ease of use. My brother and I are confident that these machines will be extremely busy and will only begin to satisfy the craving for Magni telehandlers in New England,” Empire owner and CEO Luke Lonergan said. The 2018 Magni RTH6.30SH has a lift capacity of 6.6 tons (6 t). Its max lift height is 97.9 ft. (30 m) where it can carry up to 5,500 lbs. (2,494 kg). The 2018 Magni RTH6.35SH also has a lift capacity of 6.6 tons but a max lift height of 114.5 ft. (35 m). At that height, it also can

carry a maximum of 5,500 lbs. Both models feature Magni’s quick-fit design that allows for easy switching between attachments. This makes them multi-functional tools including aerial platforms and forklifts. They both have 4 cylinder engines, 360 degree continuous rotation and high tension steel booms, which greatly improves lifting performances. “When speaking with Mr. Riccardo Magni himself, [the inventor and founder of Magni Telescopic Handlers] and other eastern United States Magni dealers, there are only high hopes and total confidence in the product” Lonergan said. “We expect the new higher capacity Magni telehandlers to be a real asset to our customers and to be a part of the construction boom that we all are hoping to see happen in 2018.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
