The legacy of Kidder Building & Wrecking Inc. in Plaistow, N.H., spans three generations in four states over the past 43 years. The company’s cranes and fleet of heavy equipment have worked and are working major projects in Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire. Roscoe Kidder founded his original company in Haverhill, Mass., in 1948 with immediate proximity to the tri-state region of Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. He later passed the firm onto his son and namesake, Roscoe N. Kidder, who still works with his sons, Shawn N. Kidder and Dan Kidder, the future co-owners of the family business. Roscoe oversees all of the operations and projects that his two boys plan, control and execute. Originally a construction company three years after the end of World War II, Shawn Kidder said the dismantling of buildings began in order to gain materials at a cheaper cost, versus buying them new. Over the next 20 years, the “wrecking” business dominated while the construction end “slipped away,” according to Shawn Kidder. In 1971, Kidder Building & Wrecking Inc. was established.
Old School Muscle “The beginning only included two one-ton, six-wheeler dump trucks, the owner and his son — my father — and old school muscle,” said Kidder. “My grandfather ran the construction and dismantling full time and my father, Roscoe N. Kidder [the current president] would work days with the family business and nights at Western Electric. My grandfather, Roscoe Kidder Sr., passed away due to cancer, and Dad took full reigns of the company.” Having learned all aspects of building, the company evolved surely, based on years of individual job experience. “Their trade as a dismantler came natural due to being a carpenter and knowing the process of constructing a building,” said Kidder. “Dismantling was just reversing the process. Having the carpenter background gave them the upper hand against those who just tried to take a building down not knowing its internal structure.” Simple woodworking has evolved into a full-service company: • All demolition and dismantling services (interior gut outs and complete takedowns of residential, commercial, industrial and educational buildings) • Disposal of all debris/masonry/concrete to legal see KIDDEr page 4

ule,” said Kidder. “Over the past 43 years, we have been fortunate to employ family that can be trusted and who are loyal to the well-being of the company. It also allowed us to train sons, uncles, cousins, from a young age,” said Kidder. “This allowed us to gain more experience in the field at a younger age and gain youth on a vigorous job site. This is an advantage for us because time is money. An expertly-trained crew in their mid-20s to mid-30s who can perform for 10-plus hours gives us the upper hand physically. Also, having the ability to train on equipment from a young age allows us to utilize our employees more fully. We can use our operators as laborers and save on personnel.” Currently, Kidder employs between 20 to 25 people, depending on season, from a full office staff, two full-time mechanics, versatile truck drivers/operators, operators who serve as foremen and skilled laborers. “Services also include a full concrete-cutting division which goes hand-in-hand with our dismantling and select demolition projects,” said Kidder. “We also continue to salvage building materials that can range from 2x4s to fire escapes and granite, all for sale.” Crane work is another major contributor to the company’s scope of work. “With all the dismantling projects we do, usually at active sites where the business is still running, it takes delicate work to complete the project and not disturb the client,” said Kidder. “Cranes help lift large sections of roofs, buildings, roof top units, etc. This usually leads to an open location [parking lot] for breaking and loading.

Gov. Deval Patrick Celebrates Grand C&D Names Ondrick Opening of New Yawkey Station to Recycling Hall of Gov. Deval Patrick celebrated the grand opening March 10 of the new Yawkey Commuter Rail Station and the start of enhanced Commuter Rail service on the Framingham/Worcester Line. The Yawkey Commuter Rail station, which serves Fenway Park and the Longwood Medical area, is now fully accessible, allows for increased service along the Worcester/Framingham line and will expand economic opportunities for each city and town along the line. The governor was joined by MassDOT Secretary & CEO Richard A. Davey, Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce President & CEO Timothy Murray and Red Sox President & CEO Larry Lucchino. “The opening of Yawkey Station is the culmination of many years of cooperation and partnership to increase access to accessible, convenient and efficient public transportation between Worcester and Fenway,” said Patrick. “This project shows that our growth strategy is real, not rhetorical. We must use public investment — of time, money and ideas — to stimulate growth and build opportunity for our residents. During construction, the tracks at Yawkey Commuter Rail Station were realigned to allow for double-track capacity, serving as the catalyst for expanded Framingham/Worcester Line service. This increases commuter options from Worcester to Boston, connecting the Commonwealth’s two largest cities, as well as along the entire length of the Framingham/Worcester Line. “By increasing service from Boston to Worcester, MassDOT continues to encourage economic growth in and around the region,” said Davey. “The Framingham/Worcester Line serves 13,000 customers daily and continues to demonstrate consistent growth, and MassDOT is confident that with this expansion, we will see that number climb.” With the new schedule, inbound departures from Worcester to Boston increase from 17 to 20 trains per day. Outbound departures from Boston to Worcester also will increase, from 16 to 20 trains per day. The service also will offer three new off-peak trains, including a new departure at 11:10
p.m. for those leaving the area later in the evening. Additionally, there will be an increase from two to three trains leaving Boston, scheduled to arrive in Worcester before 8:30 a.m. Likewise, there will be an increase in service during peak times, with a new train departing from South Station at 6:40 p.m., stopping at Yawkey and then ending in Worcester. An additional new outbound train will depart South Station at 9:25 p.m. before stopping at Yawkey. The 9:25 p.m. train will shorten the previous nearly two hour evening gap to one hour. “The renovated Yawkey Way Commuter Rail Station and the expanded Worcester/Framingham rail schedule will have a profound impact on many of our fans who use public transportation,” said Lucchino. “With 40 stops per day under the new schedule — more than twice as many as before — visitors from the Metrowest area will have greater flexibility getting to and from Fenway Park for games, events and visits to this vibrant neighborhood.” “Smart transportation investments have proven effective time and again in generating private sector job creation,” said Murray. “Strengthening the transportation network between New England’s two largest cities, Boston and Worcester, through commuter rail expansion will build on that legacy.” Yawkey Commuter Rail station now has two fully accessible, fulllength train platforms, four new elevators and an accessibility ramp. The main entrance is now on the new Yawkey Way Extension, which provides vehicular and pedestrian access off of Brookline Avenue through an area that had been used for Red Sox parking. In addition, new access to Maitland Street and Beacon Street was created, as well as a bike share station and new waiting areas with canopies and windscreens. The new Yawkey Station will provide more convenient, safer and more comfortable access to thousands of people living, working or visiting the Fenway neighborhood. “I am proud to say that Yawkey Commuter Rail station is now fully accessible to all wishing to use its services,” said GM Scott. “This is another
important step in making the entire MBTA system fully ADA compliant.” The Framingham/Worcester Line was finalized with public participation from over 500 customer responses that were received in response to MBTA inquiries surrounding the expanded schedule. The Patrick Administration worked closely with members of the Legislature to make sure that the needs of our constituents were heard while crafting this improved schedule. “The new Yawkey Station is an important transportation enhancement for serving the Longwood Medical area and the Fenway neighborhood — both economic engines for our State,” said Sen. Will Brownsberger. “Today marks an important step in the continued revitalization of downtown Worcester,” said Rep. Dan Donahue. “This increase in train service from Union Station is a long time coming for the city of Worcester. The city is poised to take off with housing and economic development projects throughout the city, and the added train service only amplifies what is already happening in Worcester.” “To invest in public transit is to invest in the city’s economic future,” said Boston City Councilor At Large Ayanna Pressley. “By improving our public transportation system, we are not only increasing access to economic opportunities, but also connecting communities and improving the quality of life for residents. I commend the Governor for his vision and leadership on this and thank the Mayor of Boston (past and present), as well as the many community partners, activists and development organizations who have worked tirelessly to see Yawkey Commuter Rail Station to fruition.” Former Lt. Gov. Murray, along with members of the legislature from cities and towns along the Framingham/Worcester Line arrived to Monday’s event on the new 512 train that departs Worcester’s historic Union Station at 7:35 a.m. They were greeted at Yawkey Station just before 9 a.m. by Patrick, Davey and the other guests.

Fame in Las Vegas Ted “Tadj” Ondrick, president and CEO of Ted Ondrick Company LLC, Chicopee, Mass., was inducted into the C&D Recycling Hall of Fame during the recent C&D World, the annual meeting of the Construction & Demolition Recycling Association, in Las Vegas, N.V. Ondrick was honored for his pioneering work in the recycling of construction and asphalt in New England. For example, in the early 1980s, long before the recycling of concrete and asphalt become commonplace, his company recycled the material generated at the rehabilitation of the Westover AFB in Chicopee. At that time he had to modify and design the equipment to do so. To this day Ondrick Materials and Recycling, which is now operated by his sons Todd and Adam, still recycles concrete, asphalt and contaminated soil locally and throughout New England. Ondrick also was a member of the first board of directors of the CDRA’s predecessor, the Construction Materials Recycling Association, and was instrumental in building the organization into the go-to place for information about the recycling of materials generated during construction and demolition, such as concrete, asphalt, wood, metals, asphalt shingles, ceiling tile, carpet and drywall. The Construction & Demolition Recycling Association is a national non-profit organization that promotes the recycling of the more than 350 million tons of construction and demolition materials generated annually.

Maine, N.H. Settle Lawsuit With M/V Harbour Feature On April 1, 2013, the M/V Harbour Feature, a 473-ft. tanker, broke her mooring lines at the New Hampshire State Pier in Portsmouth, N.H. and struck the Sarah Mildred Long Bridge, which spans the Piscataqua River between Kittery, Maine and Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The bridge is jointly owned by both states. As a result of the incident, this bridge sustained substantial damage. The States of Maine and New Hampshire subsequently filed suit against the M/V Harbour Feature in the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire seeking repayment of the costs incurred in repairing the bridge. The states and the vessel have now settled those claims for $1.3 million, and the suit has been dismissed. Both Maine and New Hampshire are satisfied with the agreed settlement.

Kidder Increases Production Despite Harsh Winter hampered efforts to stop the fire. It raged out of control for much of the night, forcing nearby residents to evacuate. By morning, the oncebusy textile complex was completely devastated. The fire was a disaster in more ways than one. The mills employed most of the immigrant workers in the struggling factory cities of Methuen and Lawrence, Mass. Malden Mills was one of the largest employers in the area. Kidder Building & Wrecking came in to help authorities pick up all of the many charred pieces and begin the daunting task of rebuilding.
KIDDER from page 4
Safety is Kidder’s first issue of the day on every project. When any new job starts, as well as during projects already in motion, safety orientations are conducted on a regular basis. Hazards are continuously discussed and reminded and ways of preventing injury and property loss are always set in place before work commences. “All our employees have at least the OSHA10. All foremen have their OSHA30. We are HAZWOPER 40 trained. Asbestos awareness courses are annually completed. Proper PPE [hard hats, high visibility clothing] is supplied to all employees on site and everyone is trained to each different job situation to perform at highest caution,” said Kidder. A Very Good Winter Even though, the company does not venture into snow plowing during harsh northern New England winters to augment seasonal work, this very cold, very snowy winter did not slow Kidder Building & Wrecking down. In fact, they increased production. “This winter snow total has been high compared to previous years; usually it’s one or two storms which we would typically shut down for the day, depending on schedule. But this past winter has, by far, been one of our most productive winters in years,” said Kidder. “Even though we were bombarded with snowstorm after snowstorm, our schedule had to remain strict due to project timelines awarded to us by our contractors. We hired more laborers, worked through snowstorms, 10plus-hour days, 2nd shifts, and we cut holidays short to stay ahead.” Kidder has been part of some of the more memorable projects in the region over the years. “One of our proudest projects was helping after the great Malden Mills Fire in Lawrence, Mass., on December 11, 1995. It put us on the map, showing how a familyowned-and-operated business can compete [and complete] in industrial plant demolition. This is a field slowly being taken over by union power house demolition companies,” said Kidder.
Other Projects There have been many other Kidder projects over four decades, such as the demolition of dorms and administration buildings at the University of New Hampshire. “We are responsible for major high school demolitions such as Reading, Needham, Maynard, Bolyston, Dracut and Watertown that cleared the way for multi-million dollar schools,” said Kidder. “Another is the 3rd Avenue project in Burlington, Mass., where we have already cleared 16 buildings in the past two years and several more to go in a huge industrial park remodel for Nordbloom’s. Kidder Building & Wrecking headquarters are on a 52-acre yard, with its fleet of equipment, at 247 Main St., Plaistow, N.H.
The fire that reduced Malden Mills to rubble on that horrible evening was one of the worst in the state’s history. Seven hundred people were at work in the factory when, at a little after 8 p.m., a boiler exploded in one of the mill buildings. The explosion was so powerful that it ruptured gas mains; fire quickly engulfed the buildings. Employees fled into the streets, 33 were injured, four of them critically. Fueled by the chemicals and flammable materials used in textile production, according to many newspaper reports, the six-alarm fire gutted the mill complex. More than 200 firefighters, from as far away as New Hampshire and Boston’s South Shore, battled 50ft. (15.2 m) walls of flame. Gusty winds and temperatures near zero

New England Seeking to Tap Canadian Hydropower By David Sharp and Wilson Ring ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) A 300-mi. (483 km) power cable would be buried on land in Maine and then run across the Atlantic Ocean floor to Greater Boston under a proposal to tap Canada’s plentiful hydropower to meet the needs of power-hungry southern New England. The so-called “Green Line” is one of several proposals across Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont aimed at fulfilling a goal by New England governors to tap up to 3,600 megawatts of renewable energy, lower electricity costs and offset losses as aging power plants go offline. It is expected to cost more than $1 billion. “Our projects are in response to a really unusual moment in time, the six governors of New England coming together and indicating that they want to support bringing additional electrical infrastructure into New England for the sake of bringing clean energy into New England,” Ed Krapels of Anbaric, one of the Green Line partners, told The Associated Press. After a bitter winter that saw big spikes in natural gas prices, the six states have come together to ensure a more reliable — and greener — power supply that can help stabilize prices in the region. “It’s pretty huge,” Chris Recchia, the commissioner of the Vermont Department of Public Service, said of the states working so closely together. “To my knowledge it hasn’t been done before.” In the next few months, the governors are expected to issue requests for proposals for 1,200 to 3,600 megawatts of transmission capacity that could carry wind and hydroelectric power from the northern reaches and Canada. They are working to ensure the region has a reliable supply natural gas to avoid future repeats of this winter’s extreme price spikes. Many of the proposals have been talked about in utility circles for some time, but came into sharper focus after January’s spike in natural gas prices. Those hikes significantly increased power costs for New England electric rate payers, highlighting the need for alternative power sources such as hydro and wind, as well as reliable sources of natural gas. “The level of urgency has probably increased as a result of the events in January,” said Tom Dunn, the president of VELCO, which manages the transmission grid in Vermont, a potential path to southern
New England for Canadian hydro power. “I think the concern is that this stuff takes a long time to permit and build. This situation is going to be with us for a number of years.” Patrick Woodcock, the governor's energy chief in Maine, said something has to change because the region’s energy rates are skyhigh and there are consequences of relying too heavily on fossil fuels. “There are a lot of costs to inaction,” he said. Massachusetts and Connecticut are driving the push to bring clean hydropower from Canada to help the states meet their cleanenergy goals. But the other four states, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Maine, agreed through the New England States Committee on Electricity, made up of state utility officials from the six states. They have agreed to share the costs because they would benefit from the overall reduction of energy costs, although the details of how that would be done remain to be worked out. The “Green Line” is one of two such proposals in Maine, with a construction team including Maine-based Cianbro, Mass.based Anbaric Holding LLC of Massachusetts and Powerbridge of Connecticut. Their proposal is unusual in that it proposes a construction hybrid of burying cable underground — possibly along railroad tracks — in Maine and then running cable under the ocean to Greater Boston — a total distance of about 300 mi. Halifax, Nova Scotia-based Emera is leading a similar proposal, to bring up to 1,100 megawatts of energy across Maine, in a project dubbed the Northeast Energy Link. Other proposals include the Northern Pass through New Hampshire, a proposal to run cables under Vermont’s Lake Champlain and a smaller Anbaric proposal to bring New York power into the New England power grid in northwestern Vermont, also under a portion of Lake Champlain. Anbaric, experienced in laying underwater power lines between New Jersey and New York, says the use of submarine cables is the most efficient method of transporting energy in terms of siting and permitting. The Green Line proposal is set up to tap both wind energy from northern Maine and hydropower from Quebec, New Brunswick and Labrador.

“We have gutted out one building and we have five more takedowns to go. The industrial park remodel will result in the construction of strip malls, bowling alleys, restaurants, movie theaters, corporate offices, residential housing and parking. This project is contracted by Erland Corporation.” A few unusual projects included the partial demolition and remodel of a future Market Basket (food market) in Manchester, N.H. “After the building was taken down and we were digging out the foundation wall, we had discovered underground walls and chambers that were unknown by the GC. After further digging and uncovering, and with the confirmation of the historical society, we had uncovered an old railroad station turntable from the mid-1800s,” said Kidder. “There were multiple tracks leading to the turntable that would, in the right time, rotate to a different direction. Following our discovery, the site crews were digging a new foundation and found two locomotives on their side, buried. They were not removed for reasons unknown. One lay inside the footprint of the building and the other in the foundation path. That train was dragged inside the foundation line and reburied.” Another job successfully completed was the removal of 10,000 sq. ft. (929 sq m) of steel decking roof and its 65-ft. (19.8 m) bar joists at the Hanover, N.H. paper mill. “What made this job challenging was that a new roof had been constructed 12 feet above it, to allow room for a larger printing press. Also, 30 feet below the roof, we were removing an active $4 million print assembly plant and up to 10 workers that worked full-time,” said Kidder. “Also, with the high risk of fire hazards, cutting torches, grinders, and cut-off saws were not allowed during dismantle in case a spark ignited fire. We completed the project in three days with Sawzalls and Porter band saws with zero loss.” Work ahead is constant and challenging. “Main and Moody in Waltham, Mass., will be one of our biggest projects on one site, consisting of complete takedown of four buildings, three of them at the corners of major intersections, only a sidewalk’s width from busy traffic,” said Kidder. “A singlestory, a three-story, a four-story and a fivestory will begin the end of March with interior gutting. Each building has 20 to 25 days to be taken down and cleaned up. “Two of the smaller buildings will be very easy with difficulty increasing with the last

two, due to sheer size and height, mixed with safety hazard being so close to the Main Street traffic,” said Kidder. “This project is also general contracted by Erland Corp. We are very excited about the project, because we beat out some big competitors. This will help us gain exposure, with such a high-risk job. It also excites us because world-ranked demolition contractor NASDI headquarters is just over a mile down the road and they were one of the companies we beat out for the job.” All Out, All the Time Kidder Building & Wrecking, Inc. is extremely proud of its reputation. “Word of mouth is very important. Image and reputation is huge in the industry. You can’t read a book and become a professional demolition contractor. It takes experience, years of it,” said Kidder. “Sometimes, it takes learning the hard way to be wise and know how to do it the next time with great caution.” These past few years, the firm has caught the eye of general contractors with how quick and efficient they are. “Now, we are getting calls and instantly awarding us projects, in cases where we may have a higher bidding number. The GC knows what they’re getting and they know their project will get done,” said Kidder. “We have some of the most talented operators, and most experienced. Our estimators have such a wide resume and have been all over the construction field. Their knowledge is a major asset. And with my father being one of the first demolition contractors in Massachusetts, his experience is second to none,” said Kidder. “He has passed that down to me since I’ve been in the field at the age of 12. And, my being only 28, and our company being the strongest it’s ever been, Kidder Wrecking is going to be around for a very long time. “To be in this field for 43 years, through the economy struggles and past recessions, says a lot about Kidder Wrecking. Our name and reputation has such a strong foundation there’s really nothing that will take us down, no pun intended,” said Kidder. Kidder Building & Wrecking headquarters are on a 52-acre yard, with its fleet of equipment, at 247 Main St., Plaistow, N.H. For more information visit www.kbwdemo.com.
