TEREX UTILITIES SALES TEAM VOLUNTEERS IN S.D. COMMUNITY
Terex team members prepped bed kits for Sleep in Heavenly Peace by sanding, pre-drilling and staining the materials to be assembled for local children. Volunteers from Terex Utilities restocked shelves for Watertown Area People Against Child Hunger.
Terex Utilities team members from across the nation traveled to Watertown, S.D., for the company’s annual sales team meeting in March. While in Watertown, 45 employees teamed up and volunteered at two area nonprofit organizations that serve area youth.
Approximately 20 Terex team members prepped bed kits for 15 beds that were donated by Terex to Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP). This non-profit organization was founded on the premise that having a bed to sleep in is a basic need that contributes to proper physical, emotional and mental stability of children. The organization has more than 250 local chapters across the nation, which build beds and provide mattresses and bedding, so that kids don’t have to sleep on the floor.
Terex team members prepped the kits by sanding, pre-drilling and staining the materials to be assembled for local children. Each bed will come with a mattress, along with bedding donated by Terex team members in Watertown.
“We are very appreciative of Terex for holding our first on site company sponsored build event in Watertown,” said Katie Stransky, president of the SIHP. “This marks a turning point for our organization as we continue to build momentum and build more beds for our area youth.”
“The process went very smoothly in lining up this build at the Terex facility. We brought all the tools for the build and instructed their volunteers how to successfully complete each station,” Stransky added.
“We had about 15 people from our core SHP team there to assist their volunteers. We are very grateful to Terex for buying the lumber and mattresses for 15 beds. They also held a bedding drive for their employees to donate new twin sheets, comforters and pillows. They have a beautiful facility and we hope to return for future builds there.
“We would also like to thank the Terex — and we’ve made volunteering a tradition for our annual sales meeting,” said Darryl Niven, Terex Utilities vice president and general manager. “Helping to build beds for area youth was awarding, yet humbling. It’s a good feeling to know that we’re helping to give local kids a comfortable place to sleep at night.”
Another group of 25 Terex team members volunteered for Watertown PACH, or
Watertown Area People Against Child
Hunger. The volunteers helped restock shelves and prepped the bagging area for the next weekly packing night. PACH works with the Watertown and Codington
County school districts to provide nutritious snacks and meals to students who need food for weekends during the school year. The program feeds more than 500 students every week.
“Terex came on a non-packing night to help prep for the rest of the school year,” said Marci Lewno, board member and inventory coordinator of PACH. “The amount of work they did allowed for our regular prep volunteers to take a week off, and they got a few extra items ready for upcoming weeks.”
“PACH is another great organization in our area that supports local youth,” said
Niven. “We are proud to support local non-profits in the area that work to meet the needs of our community members.”

Developer Eyes What Would Be Biggest Wind Farm in Ariz.
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) A developer is exploring the potential for what would be Arizona's biggest wind farm on an expanse of high desert in Pinal County about 30 miles north of Tucson.
But the company's plan to erect up to 83 wind turbines at the site known as Oak Wells has already drawn opposition from local ranchers who say the wind farm would harm rangeland as well as the environment and native wildlife.
Oak Wells Wind LLC, an Arizona company set up by Boston-based Galehead Development, has been testing the winds with a test station set up in the area since last fall, has conducted initial studies on local bird populations and met with state and federal wildlife officials.
Galehead has partnered with Steelhead Americas, the North American development arm of Danish wind-turbine maker Vestas, to study the wind resource in a roughly 44,000acre ``area of interest.''
No decision has been made on moving forward with the wind project, which if built at a proposed capacity of up to 300 megawatts would be the largest in the state, a manager of the project said.
“At this point in time, we are still assessing the viability of a wind farm in the Oak Wells area, but we believe there would be strong interest if it is shown to be a viable area for development,'' said Patrick Brown, a project development manager for Vestas.
That's not a certainty _ the wind-power potential for most of Arizona, including the vast majority of Pinal County, is rated poor or marginal.
While no buyer for the wind power has been lined up, Brown noted that Arizona Public Service Co., the state's biggest electric utility and the power provider in the Oak Wells area, plans to acquire 600-800MW of renewable energy over the next two years to meet a goal of supplying 100% renewable energy to its customers by 2050.
Oak Wells Wind's application for at wind test station was supported by a major landowner in the area, Tucson-based Anam Inc., which has run its cattle in the area for years and stands to reap lease revenue from the proposed wind farm.
In the early 2000s, Anam proposed a housing development of up to 28,000 homes on its Willow Springs Ranch land near the wind-farm site.
While the Oak Wells wind project is still in the exploratory phase, it already has attracted opposition from a group of local cattle ranchers.
In January, the Southern Arizona Cattlemen's Protective Association penned a letter to Oak Wells Wind and local and state officials, opposing the wind farm project on grounds it would threaten rangeland improvements crucial to ranching, as well as to local wildlife, including water developments, erosion-control structures and grazing management programs. ``We oppose such a large-scale project within our membership area,'' said the group, which was founded in 1955 and represents ranching families in Pinal, Pima and Santa Cruz counties. ``Many of the lands potentially affected within the project area are multigenerational ranches, some of which have been continuously operated for nearly 150 years under single family ownership.''
The ranchers' association said the rangeland improvements and grazing schedules will be impacted by the new access roads, construction sites and staging areas during construction of the proposed wind farm.
Association member Katie Cline, whose family has ranched in the area for decades, said the wind farm developer has included some private land in its project study area without consulting the landowners. ``That's why our hackles our super-raised right now,'' said Cline, whose family currently runs about 350 head of cattle on the Flying UW and Haydon Combe ranches.
The cattlemen's association also says the wind farm would open the door to further development in the area, resulting in further loss of rangeland and harm to wildlife, noting that the project area is within the Pinal County Wildlife Connectivity Assessment that was created to support Pinal County's Open Space and Trails Master Plan.
The prospective wind-farm area is important migratory route ``for numerous large and small local and international wildlife species,'' including desert bighorn sheep, the group said. The area also is habitat for the cactus ferruginous pygmy owl, currently proposed for a threatened-species listing, as well as the Sonoran desert tortoise, a protected species in Arizona and a candidate for federal ``endangered'' status.
