Fla.’s First Coast Expressway Built to Handle Growth The First Coast Expressway, known by some as the Outer Beltway project (SR 23), continues construction stretching from Interstate 10 on Jacksonville, Fla.’s Westside down to Clay County and east to St. Johns County. The current section of the entire 46-mi. toll road being built encompasses two phases that connect Clay County’s Blanding Boulevard in Middleburg all the way to the Shands Bridge over the St. Johns River. The two phases are
slated to be completed between 2025 and 2026. Jacksonville’s Superior Construction Company Southeast is listed by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) as the contractor of the work in Clay County, which also notes the contract as being worth almost $100 million. Right now, many parts of southern Clay County are experiencing a considerable amount of construction on the road project, designed to
give commuters a quicker drive to Jacksonville. Boosting the effort is the fact that the county has been experiencing a population boom in recent years, with a need for more homes, schools and roads. Many residents, though, are sad to see the small-town lifestyle of the southern Clay County communities of Middleburg, Lake Asbury and Green Cove Springs give way to big see EXPRESSWAY page 42

N.C. COUNTY RELIES ON EDGE, HILLS MACHINERY TO HANDLE WASTE
34
VOLVO CE EXPANDS CERTIFIED USED CENTERS IN FLORIDA
Mecklenburg County has generated much more solid waste than in years past, and with an emphasis on disposing trash and debris in an environmentally friendly manner, the county has stepped up its efforts from those of the past.
The new Volvo Certified Used center at Alta Equipment in Jacksonville, Fla., is Volvo CE’s fourth location, following the opening of centers in Philadelphia, Las Vegas and Detroit in the last two years.
A year and a half after the historic flooding of the Arkansas River in May 2019 damaged several Fort Smith, Ark., pump stations, more than $4 million in much-needed repairs are finally under way.
Every year, Terex Trucks ships a significant proportion of its articulated haulers — the TA300 and TA400 — from its Motherwell facility in Scotland to customers across North America.
A new 10.5-mi. highway that will provide direct access from Louisiana’s Port of Caddo-Bossier to Interstate 49 is on a fast track for approval. Currently, the new stretch is referred to as the I-69 Service Road.
Nesco Holdings Inc. announced on Dec. 3, 2020, it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Custom Truck One Source. Nesco and CTOS are providers of specialized truck and heavy equipment solutions.
An open house event, which had originally been slated for March of 2020, was finally held on Dec. 3 to commemorate the relocation of the Linder Industrial Machinery branch facility in Greenville, N.C.
XL Specialized Trailers is planning a $6 to $7 million expansion to its headquarters in Manchester, Iowa. The expansion will increase production capacity by more than 30 percent.
Representatives of Miami-based David's Dozer recently traveled to metro Atlanta to conduct a demonstration of their patented V-Loc Grading System guided by GPS mastless technology.
Ramp sales totaled $18,426,000, and more than 82 percent of the items received online bids. Featured sellers included Alabama Power; Forte Contracting; Scott Bridge; Flint Equipment Company; Burgundy Timber; and more.
Once the acquisition process is completed, the group’s affiliate Hyundai Construction Equipment, combined with Doosan Infracore, will become the No. 5 player in the global construction machinery market, according to HHIG.
The auction reached more than 1,100 registered bidders, a record number for Ritchason’s annual December auction event. The sale included excavators, backhoes, trucks, wheel loaders, skid steers, dump trucks and many more items.

Success of Florida’s J. McKinnon Due to Integrity, Efficiency
Reece Brimmer (L), president of Peninsula Technologies (owned by J. McKinnon) and Jesse Mckinnon, president of J. McKinnon Development.
By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR
The task of building Florida’s mammoth Brightline Trains extension from West Palm Beach to Cocoa, then west to Orlando International Airport, is a Herculean one for any of the contractors on the project. The $2.7-billion enterprise encompasses 170 mi. of track that will ultimately connect Orlando with Miami. The portion of the train line from Orlando International Airport east to the Space Coast has seen the most activity in Central Florida. Anyone traveling on the east-west SR 528/Beachline Expressway over the past year has no doubt noticed the land clearing and track installation that parallels the south side of the rural highway. And it is there that one of the Sunshine State’s most respected contractors is nearing the home stretch on its part in creating the high-speed rail service. Headquartered in Orlando, J. McKinnon Development specializes in mass earthmoving and excavation for all types of construction jobs, primarily in Florida. It also can mobilize quickly to work on projects in other states, if needed. The company’s key goal is to maintain several conveniently located borrow pits in central Florida and along its east coast for major infrastructure and development projects that need high-quality construction materials and aggregates. A third function of J. McKinnon is to provide environmental restoration at different sites across the state. The company began life as a site development operation in Kissimmee, before transitioning to being a go-to provider of earth-
moving and materials services. “We started with two borrow pits in 2015 and currently have six, with several more in the entitlement and permitting stages,” said company founder and president Jesse McKinnon. “In 2018, we acquired our Buck Hammock shell mine in St. Cloud and it was certified by the Florida Department of Transportation [FDOT] the following year. We also make a variety of rip rap/stone products at Buck Hammock, in addition to road base.” Among the variety of aggregate products available at J. McKinnon’s borrow sites, such as general fill and structural fill, it also offers clay stabilizer and beach sand at select locations. McKinnon said the company will

take special requests as well. Experienced Folks at Helm He and his core management team bring to J. McKinnon a combined 105 years of experience in the construction and aggregate industries. • Lawson Lamar II serves as vice president and joined the company to develop business and specifically shift its original focus from site work to aggregates and mass earthmoving; • Richard Partyka brings aboard more than 39 years of experience in the aggregate, quarrying and cement industries across North and South America. He is tasked with J. McKinnon’s operational management and

directs its OSHA and MSHA safety programs; and Logistics management is in the able hands of Billy Montgomery, who also works with J. McKinnon’s sister company, Peninsula Technologies, based in Orlando. His more than 35 years of expertise have made him perfect for aiding business development at J. McKinnon as well as managing its marketing and sales efforts. Jesse McKinnon said the company has grown from under 10 employees to almost 50 in 2020. In addition, J. McKinnon has assembled one of the largest specialized earthmoving equipment schedules in the Southeast. Big Machines Working at Site On Brightline, the requirements of the project demand J. McKinnon’s proficiency in excavating and conveying material at two areas along SR 528. “We are predominately responsible for all the borrow and fill material with the excavation being the main part of the work,” Lamar said. “We are excavating the east-end borrow pit at the northeast corner of the junction of Interstate 95 and SR 528 in Brevard County. Our guys are doing that with Hyundai HX520L crawler excavators and HL980 wheel loaders, then moving the material onto a conveyor over the north side of SR 528 to the south side where the line is under construction.” The other part of J. McKinnon’s focus on the Brightline project is the main borrow pit west of the first site, near Dallas Boulevard at SR 528 in Orange County. Lamar described it as being 100 acres in size and 50 see MCKINNON page 39

Prior to utilizing the EDGE line, he said the county’s processing of yard waste each fall was always more difficult and costly because the materials picked up at streetside are stuffed into plastic bags by homeowners.
N.C. County Relies on EDGE, Hills Machinery to Handle Waste By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR
North Carolina’s Mecklenburg County is the state’s largest in terms of population with just more than 1.1 million residents. Along with its county seat, Charlotte, Mecklenburg is one of the South’s major urban centers. Charlotte-Mecklenburg has epitomized the exponential growth of the New South over the past several decades. Fifty years ago, for instance, the county’s population was just more than 354,000 people, meaning that it has more than tripled in size since 1970. That growth has helped generate a lot of infrastructure building in and around Charlotte with new roads, interstates and bridges needed to handle the influx of people and transport of freight. But it also has generated much more solid waste than in years past, and with an emphasis on disposing trash and debris in an environmentally friendly manner in 2020, Mecklenburg County has stepped up its efforts from those of the past. Among its several landfills and waste facilities, the county maintains four full-service recycling centers. Among them is the Compost Central and Recycling Center at 140 Valleydale Road in Charlotte, which processes the majority of the county’s estimated 132,000 tons of yard waste each year. That material is then turned into a mulch and compost product. “What we get comes from commercial customers, as well as residential and municipal customers,” said Steve Hoffman, operations manager of Mecklenburg’s Solid Waste facilities. “We’ll receive the material at our scale, they pay the fees associated with the amount of material they have — we charge $27 per ton. The material is then brought to the drop zone, where it is pushed to be ground, then placed into windrows.” Hoffman spoke from the 42-acre Valleydale Road center where his crews were busy moving tons of autumn leaves and tree waste through the entire recycling process. The large site is completely paved, with 25 acres being concrete and the rest having an asphalt surface.
On hand to help move that debris along the processing line at the facility are an array of different pieces of equipment, he said. “We’ve got a Vermeer 7000 tub grinder here, which is among six grinders we use county-wide,” he described, “plus we have two Diamond Z’s, a second Vermeer, two Tana shredders, and we are renting a Haas slow speed shredder right now.” Unique EDGE Products The county also relies on a pair of EDGE FTS65 Mulch Master machines to help produce its composting product. Purchased from the Charlotte location of Hills Machinery, both EDGE Mulch Masters are used at the Valleydale Road The county relies on a pair of EDGE FTS65 Mulch Master machines to help produce its composting product.
site to process environmental waste, at the same time aerating and adding moisture to the debris through the machines’ large, 10-cu.-yd. hoppers before the resulting compost is moved into piles. “The EDGE machines are reliable, serviceable and fairly priced,” Hoffman added. “And they are unique, too, because we haven’t seen anything like the EDGE Mulch Master out there prior to visiting with Hills Machinery and EDGE.” Prior to utilizing the EDGE line, he said the county’s processing of yard waste each fall was always more difficult and costly because the materials picked up at street-side are stuffed into plastic bags by homeowners. see EDGE page 46

Van Horn Set to Begin Repairs on Ark. Pump Stations A year and a half after the historic flooding of the Arkansas River in May 2019 damaged several Fort Smith, Ark., pump stations, more than $4 million in much-needed repairs are finally under way. There is a total of 13 building permits for repairs to the pump stations by Russellville, Ark.-based Van Horn Construction Inc., ranging in cost from $8,760 to $1.8 million. The total cost of repairs is estimated at $4.59 million, according to the permit report for the week of Dec. 7 to 11.
“The flood damaged everything quickly. Repairs take a while. We appreciate the citizens being patient with us while we get the repairs completed and everything back online.” Lance McAvoy
Fort Smith’s Utility Department
There also were two stations damaged so badly they will need to be completely rebuilt, said Lance McAvoy, director of Fort Smith’s utility department. “The flood damaged everything quickly. Repairs take a while,” he explained. “We appreciate the citizens being patient with us while we get the repairs completed and everything back online.” Historic flooding hit the Arkansas River (McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System, or MKARNS) in May to June of 2019 after rains of up to 600 percent above normal in northeast Oklahoma and southeast Kansas overtook the capacity of Oklahoma reservoirs to store the water. Along with repairing the damage caused by the flood, stations are being modified so another flood like the one in 2019 will not destroy the pump facilities, McAvoy added. The utility department is using diesel by-pass pumps for the two stations that need to be rebuilt and other pumps that could not operate without repairs, but those are only a temporary fix, he said. The total cost of repair and rebuild for the pump stations crippled by the flooding is estimated at $12 million, according to McAvoy. All work on the stations is in the utility department’s capital improvement plan for the coming years, which he presented to the board of directors in October. The department is still waiting on the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to approve a plan presented to rebuild the two most severely damaged pumps. The city also is looking forward to FEMA reimbursement for all the pump station fixes. Fort Smith will pay for the projects, and then FEMA will reimburse the city 75 percent of the cost, McAvoy said.

Louisiana Highway Connecting Port to Interstate 49 on Fast Track for Construction A new 10.5-mi. highway that will provide direct access from Louisiana’s Port of Caddo-Bossier to Interstate 49 is on a fast track for approval. The DeSoto Parish Police Jury (DPPJ) and Port of CaddoBossier commission members at their separate meetings Dec. 14 approved of a cooperative endeavor agreement that also will include the Caddo Parish Commission and Northwest Louisiana Council of Governments (NLCOG). All are being asked to sign CEAs by month’s end and commit to their portion of the funding. Currently, the new stretch is referred to as the I-69 Service Road. That’s because when or if Interstate 69 is constructed, this road will parallel the proposed route and continue to act as a service road for the interstate. “This is a bit unique because even though it’s part of an interstate it’s on a fast track,” said DeSoto Police Jury Administrator Steve Brown. Discussions about the joint project started a year ago. Environmental studies are expected to be completed at the beginning of 2021, with the design following before the year is over. “Construction will begin late next year, and it will be complete by December of 2022,” Brown declared. Working in favor of the four entities that are pitching in money is that the bulk of the funds for the $32-33 million roadway are already in hand. The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) has committed 50 percent, NLCOG is providing $10 million and the rest is
a mixture of federal and local dollars. Brown said DeSoto Parish’s portion amounts to $2 million. By comparison, he explained that is the same amount of revenue the Parish receives from one of the port’s tenants, Pratt Industries, which brings its waste to the DeSoto Parish landfill. “One year’s revenue from them pays for the costs that are outlined,” he added. A benefit to keeping costs down is that the I-69 Service Road will follow the existing path of Stonewall-Frierson Road from I-49 until it veers northeast and heads to the port. About 7 mi. of the service road are in DeSoto Parish; the remaining 3.5 mi. is in Caddo Parish. That is another benefit to the DPPJ as it already owns the 80-ft. right-of-way for about the first 2 mi. of the route. DPPJ also must agree, Brown said, to work with DOTD in right-of-way acquisition on the remaining route. “One of the biggest benefits of having the road is the ability to have commercial and residential economic development along that corridor,” he explained, adding it as an “unlimited access road, meaning anything can be built off it. “I don’t have to tell you how important economic development is right now,” continued Brown, who referenced the closure of Dolet Hills Mining and the impending termination of the Dolet Hills Power Plant as big blows to the Parish’s economy. “Those are some good jobs we’re losing so anything we can do to create a good atmosphere for good jobs is needed.”

David’s Dozer Presents Grading System Demo in Georgia Representatives of Miami-based David's Dozer recently traveled to metro Atlanta to conduct a demonstration of their patented V-Loc Grading System guided by GPS mastless technology. Attendees had an opportunity to see and get a hands-on feel for this combination of products and technology. At the core of this configuration is the David's Dozer patented VLoc method, which automates the dozer blade design using patented company developed technology. All communication between the machine and the blade takes place through the V-Lectral communication module. This V-Lectral module works in conjunction with the V-Hydra valve system, located on the blade to control the row and yaw functions. The V-Hydra has been developed and engineered by the company in conjunction with Danfoss. Host machines (CTLs) do not require any specific hydraulic adjustments – the blade will operate on a standard flow auxiliary circuit. The addition of automation makes this a system where the operator can simply control the direction of the machine. The most common automation system used is laser control. The addition of laser control can automate the blade to grade a single slope such as a flat pad for a concrete pour on a new build, or a dual slope where the operator is grading in two planes. This is a bit more complex, but a key application for the drainage of roads, parking lots and parking garages. The benefit of
The no wheel design of the VLoc Grading System provides the advantage of allowing an operator to cut into the ground for roughing in and complete projects to a finish-grade with one machine.
dual grades over single grades is that water can be directed to a single point. The Leica system that was utilized for the demonstration was GPS mastless technology. GPS receives its signal from satellites and sends slope information to the antennas on the roof of the machine and into the computer mounted inside the cab. In simple terms, GPS systems receive the same satellite positioning signals as a car or smart phone map and navigation systems. The receivers use this information to check or survey a site and provide information to cut and fill a profile that exactly matches the X-Y-Z coordinates on a digital 3D topographic plan. It is ideal for multiple slope surfaces such as golf courses. This technology can eliminate

the need for a mast to be attached to the machine. By not having a mast, the system delivers a greater accuracy and smoother performance. Masts mounted on the blade to receive a signal can shake or be moved up and down on an uneven job site and interrupt the signal. Masts also can impede the operator's line of vision. GPS mastless solutions signal eliminate these issues. The design of the V-Loc Grading System includes NOT

requiring wheels on the blade to stabilize the machine. This provides the advantage of allowing the operator to complete projects to a finish grade with one machine. A “no wheel” system also allows the operator to achieve downward pressure on the blade to spread out material, the ability to cut into the ground for roughing in, and completely improves the overall maneuverability of the machine around the job site. Operators and fleet owners are
seeing the benefits of using a CTL with a blade over the use of a traditional dozer, especially with smaller job sites. A CTL with a dozer blade can: achieve a significant cost saving when measured against the purchase of a dedicated dozer; move from job to job being towed behind a smaller truck with trailer, which saves time and money; and offer an owner greater versatility when compared to a dedicated dozer. For more info on this product, visit www.davidsdozer.com.
(L-R): Matt Basden and Kert Parker of Leica Geosystems are deep in discussions of their technology being used in conjunction with the David’s Dozer V-Loc Grading System with company representative Toby Allen and owner David Armas.

Hyundai Heavy Industries Group (HHIG) has been selected as the preferred bidder to acquire Doosan Infracore. Once the acquisition process is completed, the group’s affiliate Hyundai Construction Equipment, combined with Doosan Infracore, will become the No. 5 player in the global construction machinery market, according to HHIG. Doosan Group selected the HHIG-KDB Investment Consortium as the preferred bidder and reported it to its creditors, including Korea Development Bank. The two sides aim to conclude the main contract by the end of 2020 after two to three weeks of additional negotiations. HHIG will acquire a 36.07 percent stake in Doosan Infracore, excluding Doosan Bobcat. The acquisition price is said to be in the mid-700 billion won range, which is lower than the market’s initial estimate of 800 billion won to 1 trillion won. Analysts said that the two companies will be able to generate synergies as their main markets are different. Doosan Infracore fares well in China while Hyundai Construction Equipment excels in India and Russia. Doosan Infracore sold 15,766 excavators in China in the first 10 months of 2020, the best performance since 2010 when China’s construction industry enjoyed a boom. But the corporate combination should pass the Korean Fair Trade Commission’s approval process. When the two companies combine, the unified company’s share of the domestic market exceeds 50 percent. The two have the largest and second largest shares in the Korean construction machinery market.

FAE-Primetech PT Prime Movers Reduce Wildfire Potential Forest fire fuels reduction in California is an evolving and developing process. Just as this process is becoming more important than ever, the machines contractors use to get the job done is just as important. Machine characteristics contractors consider when purchasing a machine for fuel reduction include: Reliability — can the machine hold up with minimal down time; Maneuverability — grade and slope capability while maintaining operator confidence; Production — How many acres per hour can be cleared and where can production be accomplished; Finished product — The ability to determine the final size of the finished product; Comfort/confidence — The ability to confidently operate the machines all day in a safe and quiet cab that is OSHA approved for low noise and high-quality air standards; Support — this includes parts availability, dealer and

Staying ‘Ahead of the Game’ Near California’s Creek Fire PRIMETECH from page 23
they’ve proven to save properties when fires came in close proximity, Garrett said, “Most definitely, we’ve done thousands of acres across El Dorado County. Being a small county, you either know or get to know the firemen who respond to these fires. Word gets around when you created the anchor point for them to set up and back burn to save some houses. “Our work sells itself,” Garrett added. “We’re never going to be able to prevent the fires with what we do, but by totally removing the understory and improving the forest health, we can help keep the fires on the ground. A fire is like any catastrophic disaster. Everyone forgets that it can happen until it happens. Unfortunately, when there’s a big fire, the calls start pouring in and by that time it could be too late. The optimal time to perform fire mitigation is spring, winter, fall and early summer. We can work throughout the summer, but with dust, fire dangers and Project Activity Levels [PAL] precautions, we cannot get in as much production.” Garrett said that work during fire season can actually be slow. “Every morning we have to call the Project Activity Level line and they give us different levels of how we can work. At a C level we can work all day, at D level we can work all day but we have to have a fire watch while we’re working and two hours after, and EV level we can only work until 1 p.m., and then have to have patrol the job site for two hours looking for accidental fire starts. These are days where fuel moisture is low and there are worries about winds. This is why production can be low during the summer and it’s just one of the things we deal with. We don’t want to be the reason the fire starts, but the reason they can stop it.” Owen Wadsworth, operations manager/owning member of Red Mountain Resources, a Georgetown-based reforestation contractor that does work throughout the entire
Kingsley Grinding's FAE-Primetech PT-175 grinds through a severely dusty burn-scar challenged by virtually zero visibility.
United States, said, “Our bread and butter has always been using our hand crews. We’ve done a lot of hand tree planting, but only recently in California due to the popularity of fuels reduction and a result of the wildfires they’ve been suffering from. We’ve been getting more involved with fuels reduction and found it convenient to incorporate the FAE PT-300 because a lot of jobs require both hand crews and machines.”
Staying “ahead of the game” for land clearing near California’s Creek Fire, FAE-Primetech PT prime movers are used for heavy mulching for forestry fuels reduction.
According to Wadsworth, his company is using an FAEPrimetech PT-300 prime mover, a purchase from Global Machinery, to target brush and to open up areas for the hand crews to come in. This piece of equipment makes it a much smoother process than in the past where the company was reliant on other contractors to come in do the clearing. Now, his company can do it on its own. Another big advantage for the use of prime movers in fuel reductions is that much of the public lands can’t use herbicide. “What we’re seeing is a lot of these mega fires coming through on public lands where they cannot use herbicide, and the fires are brushing in really heavy. In order to take over the site they have to do a mechanical mitigation or burn it again. Fire is a pretty touchy subject here, so it’s strictly mechanical,” Wadsworth said. “We’ve been able to take on anything that was thrown at us with the PT-300,” he added. “Where the PT really shines is a brush field that they are trying to reinvent into a timber stand, or they are trying to make a safety zone for structures.” Joel Fonoimoana, Primetech operator of Red Mountain Resources, who was operating in the French Meadows, Tahoe National Forest, added his thoughts to the topic of fuels reduction. “The main thing is, by eliminating the fuel ladders, it helps prevent the fire’s ability to spread as quickly by keeping the barrier low to the ground. If a fire happens to start, then it will only burn the vegetation that was left. Anything that is left is intentional.” Red Mountain Resources currently has two FAE Primetech PT-300’s purchased from Global Machinery and both machines are working well for its fuels reductions contracts. Fonoimoana added that the forestry services “like to leave clumps of low brush, what they might call a mosaic. The spacing may vary but the premise is that they don’t want to totally annihilate all the underbrush on public lands. The big goal is removal of fuel ladders — meaning any living or dead vegetation that allows a fire to climb from the forest floor to the tree canopy.”

Metso Outotec donated Lokotrack LT106 leaving the factory towards Beirut in October 2020.
Metso Outotec is supporting the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) emergency program in Beirut, Lebanon, in collaboration with UNICEF Finland, by donating equipment that will be used in the reconstruction of the disaster area in order to secure clean water, sanitation and healthier living conditions for thousands of children and families. The donated equipment is expected to arrive in Beirut in December 2020. The explosion in August caused massive destruction of buildings and infrastructure. The equipment that Metso Outotec donated will be used to clear up the explosion waste, such as concrete from buildings and asphalt from roads and paving. The equipment also is used in recycling and production of aggregates for reconstruction. “When UNICEF approached us for financial support, we realized our equipment could help the people and the destruction area in a very concrete way,” said Eeva Sipilä,
the CFO at Metso Outotec. “We are happy that through collaboration with UNICEF, we can offer our expertise and do our share in the enormous effort to rebuild the city.” “We are extremely grateful for this donation. As COVID19 cases continue to surge and there is a high risk of waterborne diseases in the affected area, it is more critical than ever to ensure that children and families have access to safe water and sanitation. With Metso Outotec’s help we will be able to clear the explosion waste and help rebuild sanitation services more rapidly”, said Marja-Riitta Ketola, executive director of the Finnish committee for UNICEF. The donated equipment includes one Lokotrack LT106 mobile jaw crusher and two Lokotrack ST4.8 mobile screens. In addition to the equipment, Metso Outotec will provide training and technical support to operate the equipment. For more information, visit mogroup.com.

Volvo CE Expands Certified Used Centers in Florida The new Volvo Certified Used center at Alta Equipment in Jacksonville, Fla., is Volvo CE’s fourth location, following the opening of centers in Philadelphia, Las Vegas and Detroit in the last two years. Machines in the Volvo Certified Used (VCU) program go through a rigorous inspection process, giving customers confidence in what they’re buying. “The construction industry has seen an increase in used equipment purchases in recent years, and the trend has accelerated in 2020 with the uncertainty caused by the pandemic,” said Tara Stryker, director of used equipment, Sales Region Americas of Volvo CE. “With a Volvo Certified Used machine, you know exactly what you’re getting so it makes that decision easier.” What VCU Means to Customers At Volvo Certified Used Centers, off-lease Volvo equipment undergoes a rigorous 140-plus point inspection from certified dealer technicians and is refurbished to OEM standards using genuine parts. All factory updates are completed, and the machines are packaged with a 6-month/1,200-hour Powertrain warranty. The certified machines also come with a free one-year subscription to the ActiveCare Direct telematics service, and they qualify for Volvo’s Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty. The entire process is overseen by Volvo CE in partnership with the dealerships, which own and operate the centers — putting people who know equipment in charge. This is different from programs that are run by the financial arm of the company.

ing to the manufacturer. “We want to be a leader in used equipment,” said Tommy Ball, senior vice president at Alta. “Becoming a VCU Center helps us further establish ourselves as that leader in the southeast.” Alta invested in major facility upgrades for the transition, including clearing land; installing a track press, paint booth, sandblaster and wash rack; and performing electrical and plumbing updates. Employees have been to other locations for training, and additional painters and mechanics are being hired. Volvo continues to evaluate future Volvo Certified Used Center locations with dealerships across the United States and Canada. For more information, visit https://volvousedce.com/.
“We run this program like we’re spending the customer’s money, and we won’t spend their dollars unwisely,” said Stryker. “We’re committed to lowering the total cost of ownership for our customers.” Prime Location The southeast United States has more Volvo pre-owned equipment than any other region in the country, which is a major reason the Jacksonville location made sense for the new VCU Center.

Hills Machinery Brings New Levels of Success to Terex Trucks Every year, Terex Trucks ships a significant proportion of its articulated haulers — the TA300 and TA400 — from its Motherwell facility in Scotland to customers across North America. This year, Hills Machinery — the company’s dealer in North and South Carolina — has taken a considerable amount of the trucks to meet customer demand, resulting in a market share improvement of around 80 percent in its territories. “Since Volvo Construction Equipment took ownership of Terex Trucks, there has been huge investment in the products and they’re now producing great articulated dump trucks,” said Jim Hills, co-founder and president of Hills Machinery. “The latest trucks are robust, reliable and perform well in whatever conditions you put them in. They are good value for money, simple to operate and easy to maintain. All of this, together with a generous warranty and both ours and Terex Trucks’ strong commitment to product support and parts availability, makes a very attractive offer for customers. I think that’s why we’ve seen such a strong increase in demand for the trucks.” Strong Partnership Hills Machinery started selling, renting,
leasing and servicing the TA300 and TA400 in 2018. The company has eight locations across the Carolinas and approximately 130 employees.
Founded by Jim and Adam Hills in 2007, the dealership supplies complementary construction equipment as well as attachments and ground engaging tools. With a diverse

territory which includes everything from coastal lowlands, where the trucks are operating in very wet conditions, to mountains, where the trucks carry heavy loads up and down steep gradients, means Hills Machinery serves customers in a variety of industries including construction, mining, land clearing and road building. “North America is an important market for us,” said Robert Franklin, sales and marketing director Americas at Terex Trucks. “We want to grow our business in the region and reach new customers, which is exactly what Hills Machinery is helping us achieve. The team has excellent market, product and application knowledge, and they do whatever it takes to satisfy customer needs. They are committed to delivering the best products together with the best customer support, and I think that’s the secret to their success.” Proven Performance “Since we started working with Terex Trucks, customer feedback has been exceptional,” said Hill. “Our customers tell us that the trucks help them to make more money through their reliability, fuel efficiency and low total cost of ownership.” For more information, visit www.terextrucks.com.

BladeCore Announces Its New NiCore Premium Blade Series
NiCore blades currently are available through BladeCore for Fortress, Genesis and LaBounty shears as well as many other types of stationary shears.
BladeCore, a supplier of mobile shear and stationary shear blades, introduced its new NiCore premium blade series. Made from high-alloy material with a 4 percent nickel content, these blades are yielding an average of 60 to 80 percent longer per edge than a standard blade, according to the manufacturer. During a trial with almost 75 customers, more than 90 percent concluded that they preferred blades comprised of this material because of the additional output of processed scrap. “We used to go through two or more blade kits a year and we’re down to one now, which is huge. The additional savings from less down time is also great for us,” a Pennsylvania customer said. NiCore blades currently are available through BladeCore for Fortress, Genesis and LaBounty shears as well as many other types of stationary shears. Jay McDevitt, BladeCore division manager, said, “We’ve never seen blade life like this on a blade before. These NiCore blades will redefine life expectations in the scrap metal and demo industries.” BladeCore, a division of Exodus Machines, offers replacement blades for mobile and stationary shears as well as direct sales and service support.
Bucket, Thumb System, Coupler Offer Bundled Solution Stanley Infrastructure announced that its Paladin brand has introduced new bucket, thumb system and coupler products that provide a bundled attachment solution for excavators, no matter the manufacturer. Paladin’s upgraded JRB excavator bucket increases capacity by 15 percent, while maintaining required OEM pin-to-tip geometry. A dual-tapered design reduces dig out (fill) and dumping forces to maximize onsite digging effectiveness, reducing work time needed. The new bucket features a durable design for long life and is optimized for highproduction digging. Similarly, Paladin’s new, configurable JRB thumb systems are installed with ease, offer best-in-class clamping and rotation and utilize hardened pins, field replaceable bushings, dual-cushioned cylinders and high-strength and abrasion-resistant material that maximizes product life. Bringing it all together is the Paladin power-latch coupler, which gives operators maximum flexibility at the work site. Multi-pin spread capability allows pickup of a wide range of attachments, while its dual-locking system facilitates safe and swift attachment changes. This new coupler sets the North America industry standard for versatility and safety compliance (ISO13031). Installation kits are available with no special tools or skills needed.

McKinnon Adds Hyundai Machines to Brightline Fleet MCKINNON from page 8
ft. deep. It provides all the fill for the project, he added. “We also have an eight-yard dragline for moving some shell material at that main borrow pit as well,” Lamar said. Logistically, conveying materials worked better, he explained, since so few roads intersect with the SR 528 toll route in the unpopulated grasslands between the eastern edge of Orlando and I-95. Big Believer in Hyundai Machines Although J. McKinnon has various construction equipment made by different companies, for Brightline it has been most impressed by the performance it has gotten from its Hyundai crawler excavators and wheel loaders. McKinnon and Lamar credit Earthmovers Construction Equipment, with locations in Apopka and Ft. Pierce, for helping J. McKinnon obtain and service the Hyundai line, which they said has proven to be the best heavy machinery for their projects. Working with Brian Darville, territory sales manager for Earthmovers in central and western Florida, also has given J. McKinnon a smooth path to get the machines it needs. Among its fleet of Hyundai equipment on Brightline, besides the HX520L excavators and HL980L loaders, are HL480 excavators, Lamar said. They also are using 30-ton Bell trucks from Earthmovers to separate designated materials, “The Hyundai excavators are extremely reliable and fuel-efficient, priced out as the best machine for the money for production,” he said from the job site off SR 528. “They have a great warranty, great service and very little breakdown. In the unlikely event that we have a substantial breakdown, Earthmovers has had equipment from its rental fleet here immediately to allow us to take up the loading slack while our machine is being fixed. The service we have had from Earthmovers has truly kept us moving and in production.” Restoration Efforts Important to J. McKinnon J. McKinnon has a successful track record of large projects in the state, but Lamar said the Brightline work has been, by far, the company’s biggest excavation job to date. However, the firm also feels another part of its mission is to achieve prosperity in environmental restoration efforts, a calling that drives it to grow and re-establish Florida’s native species at excavation sites back to their natural state. “We use this opportunity to cultivate our own reclamation tree species on site, which allows us to increase our restorative efforts
LoadScan is a system designed to give users and customers an accurate and reliable load volume count.
beyond local and state requirements for the best possible environmental benefit and aesthetic,” Lamar said. As a bonus, the nature of the work has given J. McKinnon the chance to be involved in other unique enterprises. “We worked on the Kissimmee River restoration project in the Everglades about four years ago,” he said, “and moved a lot of dirt there for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. That was an interesting project because literally the intent of it was to put the bend back in the river and slow everything to allow some of the nutrients to precipitate down into the water to be able to get it cleaned up.” LoadScan Key to Honesty, Efficiency To maintain a construction aggregates business that is honest, efficient, and precise
— and one that ensures its customer’s expectations — J. McKinnon employs the latest technologies in measuring and tracking the amount of aggregate and earth that it sells. That is done through its use of LoadScan, a system designed to give users and customers an accurate and reliable load volume count. LoadScan measures actual loaded truck (or conveyor belt) volumes and reports in real time with an accuracy of plus or minus one percent. At J. McKinnon, the scanning technology only bills the customer for actual material loaded, eliminating guesswork and discrepancies. Most importantly to contractors, it allows them to maximize loading efficiency and cycle times. According to Lamar, LoadScan has been essential to his company and, he added, “fundamental to J. McKinnon’s success.” “About six or seven years ago, I was vis-

iting with a customer and working on negotiating a billion-plus yard import and he asked, ‘How are we going to measure it?’ And I said, ‘What are you going to need?’” So, after doing some checking, Lamar learned about the LoadScan technology and saw it run at another company. He was so impressed by its abilities that he soon brought the precision tool to J. McKinnon. “We ran it at one of our borrow pits until we got a high level of confidence with it, after which we began implementing it as a point-of-sale device,” he said. “We started selling customers on the program and got a lot of good traction. Disney and Universal in Orlando have contracted with us to import millions of yards of material to their theme parks and their directives stipulated that we measure all that earth using this technology.” LoadScan also has helped J. McKinnon to get into a lot of projects through its synergy with Peninsula Technologies, now the authorized LoadScan sales and service representative in North America. The product was invented more than 20 years ago in New Zealand, where it is still manufactured. In tandem with LoadScan, J. McKinnon also gives its customers the option of using Dauber, a logistics app and dispatching support tool that provides trucking companies, contractors and material suppliers the ability to not only go paperless, but share information in real-time, automate their dispatch, and give trucks more loads per day. “The order process has been a focus during the COVID-19 pandemic,” McKinnon said. “To streamline and reduce human-tohuman contact during the ticketing process, we adopted Dauber so that our customers could enjoy a ticketless experience via smart phone interface and where they can check on up-to-the-second truck locations, ensure a correct dump location with geo-fencing capabilities, as well as other functions.” “It falls in line with our mission of honesty,” Lamar added. “We want to bill ourselves as being up front — the young, transparent guys.” J.

Nesco Holdings to Acquire Custom Truck One Source Nesco Holdings Inc. announced on Dec. 3, 2020, it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Custom Truck One Source (CTOS) for a purchase price of $1.475 billion. Nesco and CTOS are providers of specialized truck and heavy equipment solutions including rental, sales and aftermarket parts and service. The acquisition will create a one-stop-shop provider of specialty rental equipment serving growing infrastructure end-markets, including transmission and distribution, the 5G revolution build-out and critical rail and other national infrastructure initiatives. With complementary business lines, customer bases and capabilities, the combination is expected to yield significant benefits from increased scale, breadth of product and service offerings and expanded geographic coverage. Following closing, the combined company will have a more attractive financial profile with significantly reduced leverage and enhanced liquidity providing flexibility to address anticipated demand in the large and growing addressable market in which it operates, according to Nesco. “Since Capitol’s investment in Nesco last year, our number-one strategic priority has been to find a way to bring these two companies together, given the significant value inherent in the combination,” said Mark Ein, chairman and CEO of Capitol and vice chairman of Nesco. “With enhanced scale, a broader set of capabilities and vastly improved financial flexibility, we believe the new company will be distinctively well-positioned to take advantage of the anticipated growth in critical U.S. infrastructure efforts in energy, telecom and rail over the near term and beyond. We are very pleased to partner with

Platinum [Equity] given its deep knowledge and strong track record in the equipment rental industry, as well as the existing CTOS shareholders led by Blackstone. Together with Platinum and our other co-investors and the combined company’s Board and management team, we look forward to capturing the meaningful upside opportunities that lie ahead.” Platinum Equity was previously the majority owner of Nesco from 2011 to 2014 and has been a longtime investor in a wide range of specialty rental businesses. “This is a powerful team of investors coming together to create value,” said Tom Gores, chairman and CEO of Platinum Equity. “We will deploy our industry knowl-
edge and global operating expertise to maximize the potential of this investment.” “We know these companies and the industry extremely well and we have a well-defined playbook for creating value in this space,” said Louis Samson, partner of Platinum Equity. “We also have a deep bench of operations professionals specialized in merger integration and business transformation who will help bring Nesco and CTOS together, building on the best attributes of each. We expect the combination will create a compelling industrial growth company with strong fundamentals and multiple ways to drive EBITDA [Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization]
organically or through additional M&A.” “We are excited to bring together our complementary companies to provide a full range of solutions to our customers,” said Fred Ross, CEO of CTOS. “I want to thank our dedicated employees for all that they do each day. Looking ahead, as a combined company, we will be very well positioned to capitalize on a broad range of growth opportunities and better serve our customers' specialty rental equipment needs on a national basis. We look forward to working together with the Nesco team to realize substantial synergies that will create meaningful value for all our stakeholders.” John-Paul (JP) Munfa, managing director of Blackstone, added, “We at Blackstone are proud to have played a role in the establishment of CTOS, in partnership with Fred Ross and other CTOS shareholders, and have seen the company more than double in size during our ownership. We believe the additional scale and public market access provided by the transaction are the next logical step in the company’s evolution, and we are pleased to invest in a transaction carrying significant commercial benefits for the company’s customers, in partnership with Platinum, Capitol, ECP and Nesco’s existing shareholders.” “This combination will create
new opportunities for our company, our employees and the customers we serve,” said Lee Jacobson, CEO of Nesco. “Nesco and CTOS are a perfect fit and together will be well positioned to pursue numerous opportunities in the rapidly growing specialty rental segment. We couldn’t have reached this milestone without the hard work of our team, and we look forward to working together with CTOS to ensure a seamless transition.” Strategic Combination Creates Compelling Industrial Growth Co. Enhanced value proposition to customers through “one-stopshop” national platform. The combined company will offer customers a full suite of solutions across the specialty rental equipment value chain, including equipment rental, new sales, used sales, aftermarket parts and service and retail parts, tools and accessories. Together, the combined company will operate on a national scale with more than 1,800 employees, 46 company-operated locations and a rental fleet that will be nearly double in size with almost 9,000 units and more than $1.3 billion in combined original equipment cost. Favorable exposure to highly attractive end-markets with strong fundamentals. The combined company’s core end-markets will include T&D, telecom, rail and infrastructure, all of which benefit from strong secular growth and macro mega trends, as well as limited downside cyclicality. The combined company’s increased scale and national presence will provide significant opportunities to further penetrate new and existing customers across geographies and end-markets. see NESCO page 41

First Coast Expressway Adds XL Specialized Trailers Set Critical Evacuation Route to Expand Manchester HQ EXPRESSWAY from page 1
city suburbia. But while some have lamented the growth because of the population boom, others welcome it because of the long commute so many county residents face right now. “As everyone knows, Blanding Boulevard and some of the primary routes are pretty congested,� said Sara Pleasants, a spokesperson of the FDOT. “So, this provides an alternative to that for people who live out on the far west-side of the Jacksonville metro area.� Pleasants also pointed out that the growth is not due to the new road; rather, it’s the other way around: The First Coast Expressway is being built to accommodate the huge expansion Clay County has undergone. County leaders also are aware of some unease by longtime residents with the growth but said the new expressway is critical to the future of the area. “I think you could call it a big deal for Clay because it is,� said Clay County Commission Chairman Mike Cella. “[We
need it] so that our people don’t have to drive as far to go to work. Right now, Clay is the number one county in the state in which more people leave to go to work instead of stay [locally] to work. Cella said population projections for Clay County show it should add 85,000 new residents by 2040, and the new expressway is needed to accommodate all that growth — something that is not new for the county. To illustrate, Cella noted that in 1970, Clay’s population was only about 32,000 people. He added that large amounts of land that are environmentally protected in the county will not be developed. Once the two phases to connect Blanding Boulevard with the Shands Bridge are completed, there will be a rebuild of the latter span that connects Clay and St. Johns counties. That project is slated to begin in 2022 and finish in 2029. The FDOT added that the First Coast Expressway also will add a critical hurricane evacuation route for evacuees traveling north from South Florida. 

XL Specialized Trailers is planning a $6 to $7 million expansion to its headquarters in Manchester, Iowa. The expansion will increase production capacity by more than 30 percent. The new development, which will be under way at the end of 2020 or early 2021, will add roughly 55,000 sq. ft. to the north side of its current manufacturing footprint. Construction is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2021. The growth at XL is not limited to the facility. The expansion also will allow room to add many new positions to the company. Currently the manufacturer has hundreds of people on its team with plans to add 65 new jobs to the small eastern Iowa city of nearly 5,000 residents. “Increasing our space and adding more team members positions us to serve our customers better than ever before,â€? said Stuart Sleper, president and CEO of XL Specialized Trailers. “We will be well positioned for growth in the market and reduce lead times on our products.â€? Currently, XL is working with the state of Iowa, in addition to the city, to receive zoning permits and tax incentives. The city of Manchester is holding a public hearing for an Urban Renewal Plan Amendment and would give XL a 10year, 80 percent tax rebate if passed. The date for the hearing is set for Dec. 14. A record sales year in 2019 has allowed XL to power through the COVID-19 pandemic despite what the market indicates as a 45 percent drop in the low-bed trailer industry in 2020. “We’re fortunate to have a diversified portfolio in the industries we serve with some sectors performing better than others,â€? said Sleper. “At the moment, we have a backlog and strong order activity. We also are fortunate to have the best dealership network in the industry and a loyal customer following. When the economy bounces back, we’ll be able to take advantage of our expansion in production capacity.â€? Because of its recent financial health, XL has plans for community outreach and support. “We’ve never really been active as a community partner before, and we’d like to change that,â€? said Sleper. “We want to be the employer of choice in the area, and also be recognized as a helpful partner in our city and community. XL Specialized Trailers has big plans, and we are excited for the future.â€? For more, visit www.xlspecializedtrailer.com. 

EDGE from page 12
“During leaf season in Mecklenburg County, we collect roughly 15,000 to 20,000 tons of leaves in plastic bags and we have to separate the bags from the leaves for us to process [the natural waste] in a compost or mulch product we can sell,” Hoffman said. “For 15 years, we hired temp agencies to send people to us to cut open the bags with razor blades to separate out the leaves.” Again, Hoffman and his department turned to EDGE and Hills Machinery to help the county find another more efficient product for dealing with bagged yard waste. “We spoke to a lot of people over the years with hopes of finding a machine that could do that for us and we were not able to until we met with EDGE and Hills,” he said. “EDGE designed and built a trommel screen equipped with cutting knives that separates the plastic from the leaves — something that was done for our specific needs.” Hoffman said the crews at Valleydale Road now send the bags through a slow screen shredder first before depositing them and their contents into an EDGE TRM622 mobile trommel. As the bags tumble, the plastic gets caught on the knives, and lets the debris pass through a pick station and onto an EDGE MS80 stacker for placement into windrows. He added that the EDGE trommel, in tandem with the stacker, allows the recycling center to do twice the volume of work in half the time. Whereas before, the compost center was taking in 10,000 tons of leaves in plastic bags and spending four months to sort through the waste, Hoffman said the operation now processes 20,000 tons of natural detritus in two months with the EDGE equipment. “The stackers are extremely helpful, and we’re looking to get another one,” he continued. “[Having one] takes a loader out of the operation, which allows us to reduce our fuel consumption, save money on labor and eliminate the risk of a backing incident with a loader. At this facility, the grinding was coming off from a discharge belt and we would have to
move that material with a wheel loader back and forth several times. Near misses on the conveyor were regular occurrences, so if you put an EDGE 80-foot stacker in the process, it is much safer.” Waste Facilities Rely on Hills Machinery A 23-year veteran of working for Mecklenburg County Solid Waste, Hoffman and his colleague, Doyle Tyson, the county department’s environmental supervisor, have obviously become big fans of EDGE products. Part of Tyson’s role is the purchasing and maintenance of the equipment used at its waste-handling sites. But they also have come to rely on and remain impressed with the continued good service and attention they get from Hills Machinery and its environmental sales representative, Frank Murphy. Hills has carved itself a prominent niche in the market by consistently offering outstanding equipment brands and timely service to folks across the two Carolinas. “In Mecklenburg County, we have 70-75 pieces of equipment, and the EDGE products have performed as good, if not better, than anything else we have in use out there,” Hoffman said. “Plus, the service from Hills Machinery has been great when we have needed it, but I will say we haven’t needed it a lot due to their durable products. “Of course, machines with moving parts do break and Hills has been fantastic in its response time and getting us any parts we need to get a machine up and running again.” Hills Machinery (and its environmental division) has eight locations across North and South Carolina, including branches in Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, Asheville and Greenville in the Tarheel State. In the Palmetto State, Hills Machinery operates stores in Charleston, Columbia, and Greenville. The full-service equipment dealership’s website can be found at www.hillsmachinery.com. CEG

TDOT Improving Flow on SR 317 By Lori Tobias
Fans of Little Debbie cakes might be pleased to know that transportation of the treats from the Collegedale, Tenn., plant is about to get that much sweeter. The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) began work in March on the third and most significant phase of a project to reconstruct and widen a 3.4 mi. stretch of SR 317 (known by locals as Apison Pike). “Collegedale is one of the fastest growing towns in Hamilton County,” said Darrell Bost, construction services manager of the consulting firm, Neel-Schaffer Inc. “It’s a very popular place to live because of the schools. It’s also home to McKee Foods, the company that makes Little Debbie snack cakes. It will help them with transportation to and from their plant, and meeting public demands. It also will give them the infrastructure to help them to continue to grow.” Two phases of the project have already been completed. The first connected SR 317 to I-75. It was the first design/build project undertaken by TDOT in region two, which covers the eastern middle section of the state and Chattanooga. The second project began at the end of the first project and through the SR 321 (Ooltewah Ringgold Road) intersection. “This project widened Apison Pike to five lanes from two lanes,” said Ken Flynn, TDOT director of operations. “It also added sidewalks and signalization at some of the side roads. It was definitely needed and helped the community a lot.” The current project improves the section of SR 317 from Ooltewah Ringgold Road to east of Layton Lane near the Municipal Airport. It also will add 4-ft. bike lanes, 5-ft. sidewalks and extend the Wolftever Creek Greenway. The bid was awarded to Wright Brothers Construction Co. Inc. of Charleston, Tenn. In addition to McKee Foods, SR 317 provides the connection between the Chattanooga suburbs of Ooltewah, Collegedale and Apison, as well as access to Enterprise South Industrial Park, Southern Adventist University and the Collegedale Municipal Airport. The $93.1 million phase features five bridges, 10 retaining walls and six box culverts. One of those bridges one is 1,500 ft. long, crossing the railroad, a creek, a greenway and city
street. The steel I-beam bridge will rise 50 to 60 ft. above the roadway. “The biggest and most important thing about this project is the bridge over the railroad track,” said TDOT region two spokesperson Jennifer Flynn. “That will be a game changer in the Collegedale area. The current setup of the at-grade crossing is not ideal. The rail line is a very busy one, and traffic backs up there all the time. The predictability of having the new bridge over the track will definitely help traffic flow in the area, including getting the Little Debbie snack cakes delivered faster.” One of the biggest challenges on the project has been working with the soil. “Much of this project is wetlands,” said Bost. “We’re having to deal with very soft material, hauling solid rock. We have a large cut on the project, where we’ll borrow material to build the road bed. We’ll put it on top of the solid rock. We’ve also got a lot of utilities going in — water, sewer, gas, fiber optics, power. There’s a petroleum line going through the project.” Crews will excavate 709,000 cu. yds. of road and drainage material, and bring in 100,000 tons of graded solid rock. That’s 50 percent more material than plans initially called for. “With a capacity for 22 tons per truck, you can imagine with 100,000 tons of rock how many trucks you have to have to haul that,” said Ken Flynn. Other equipment on-site, owned by Wright Brothers, includes a 150-ton crane; a 100-ton crane; Caterpillar 236 track hoes; two 320 excavators; D6 and D8 dozers; a dump truck loader; and a track drill. In addition to the soft soils, crews also have encountered difficulty with the bedrock. “We’re in an area where we’ve got drill shafts,” said Bost. “One of the problems we run into, doing the drill shaft, once you get to the rock, it’s not solid rock, but like Swiss cheese. There are voids in the rock. We’re in a wetland. A creek goes through the project and there’s a lot of underground water. It carries that silt and it comes right back in. The worst one we have, we got it drilled and couldn’t keep the fill. We had to pour concrete and drill again.” The project is slated for completion in June 2025. CEG

JM Wood Holds Two-Day Auction in Montgomery, Ala.
J
M Wood held its end of year two-day auction on Dec. 8 and 9 at the company’s Montgomery, Ala., headquarters facility. Ramp sales totaled $18,426,000, and more than 82 percent of the auction items received online bids. Featured sellers included Alabama Power; Forte Contracting; Scott Bridge; Flint Equipment Company; Burgundy Timber; and more than 200 other sellers. “December capped off an unpredictable year,” said Russ Wood. “Used equipment pricing has continued to rise since June and the supply of low-houred machinery has decreased. “We look forward to a strong March 16 to 20 auction.” CEG
A high volume of excavators is the norm for onsite and online bidders at most JM Wood sales in Montgomery.
A festive 20-ft. Christmas tree greeted customers and guests as they entered the lobby. JM Wood staffers usher in an assortment of late-model Cat dozers to be auctioned, including this pair of D5K2s.
JM Wood’s Russ Wood (L) and Charles Rhodes, a Montgomery County row crop farmer, discuss the Alabama cotton crop loss from Hurricane Zeta.
A large selection of Caterpillar forestry equipment was sold from locations across the country. (L-R): Bill Woods, Woods Equipment, Nashville, Tenn; George Massey, JM Wood Auction; and Stan Maxey, VC Trucking, Montgomery, Ala., watch and discuss the machines and trucks being auctioned.
Another great selection of 2020 Kenworth T880s rolled across the ramp and were sold for $187,500 each.
At the ramp-side Internet station, JM Wood’s Spencer Clark keeps up with the Internet bidding on a rather chilly Montgomery, Ala., morning.
To ensure that all bidders are on top of what lot is being sold and where the pricing stands, numerous big screen TVs are positioned everywhere throughout the auction theater and the lobby area.
