Gov. Gina M. Raimonda noted that Rhode Island is proud to be home to the nation’s first offshore wind farm. “With this project, we’re putting hundreds of our local workers to work at-sea and at our worldclass ports to build a project that will help diversify Rhode Island’s energy mix and protect our environment. I applaud Deepwater Wind for their successful first offshore construction season, and I look forward to seeing the project fully operational and generating renewable energy in 2016.” Deepwater Wind photo During the 18-week construction period last When fully completed, the wind farm will consist of five, 6year, approximately 200 workers (100 of them megawatt wind turbine generators, a submarine cable local) and a dozen construction and transport interconnecting the turbines, and a submarine cable from barges, tugboats, crew ships and monitoring ves- the northernmost turbine to an interconnection point on Block Island. sels were active at the project’s port.

Deepwater Wind and General Electric established a new temporary manufacturing facility at the Port of Providence for the assembly of turbine components.

Deepwater Wind and General Electric established a new temporary manufacturing facility at the Port of Providence for the assembly of turbine components. GE (which recently completed its acquisition of Alstom’s offshore wind unit) is supplying the 6-megawatt Haliade 150 offshore wind turbines for the Block Island Wind Farm. Approximately 60 local workers will be involved in this aspect of the project. GE’s work will include the installation of the electrical, mechanical, and safety equipment within the bottom tower sections now at ProvPort, with the remaining tower sections arriving in Rhode Island next year. Each turbine tower consists of three sections, with a total height of approximately 270 ft. (82.3 m), and a total weight of approximately 440 tons (399 t), once assembled. Some construction and staging work also is being completed at Quonset Point, in North Kingstown, R.I. Fabrication of some of the foundation components was completed by local welders at Quonset’s Specialty Diving Services in early 2015, and the port continues to host construction work and vessel staging for the wind farm. Quonset also will host the project’s long-term operations and maintenance facility. The project is scheduled to be in-service and generating power in the fourth quarter of 2016. A joint venture between Weeks Marine and Manson Construction is serving as Deepwater Wind’s offshore foundation installation contractor. Local contractors assisting with this work include Aladdin Electric; Bay Crane New England; Essex Newbury; E.W. Audet & Sons; Aero Mechanical Inc.; Waterson Terminal Services; GZA GeoEnvironmental; VHB; and Fuss & O’Neill. Workers from the laborers, carpenters, elevator constructors, IBEW, ironworkers, plumbers and pipefitters, cement masons, operating engineers and stevedoring unions will be involved. “Building an offshore wind industry in the U.S. will create thousands of American jobs,” states Deepwater Wind’s website “Today, the offshore wind industry in Europe employs nearly 60,000 workers. There are approximately 2,500 wind turbines spinning in the ocean off the coast of Europe today, but none yet in the United States. Developing an offshore wind industry right here in America will increase our nation’s competitiveness in energy sector, revitalize industrial ports, bolster the manufacturing sector, and create good, high paying, jobs in the years to come.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

RIDOT Hosts Nation’s DOTs to Share Winter Storm Practices Improved winter storm operations and dramatically reduced pothole claims were among the messages being delivered as the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) hosted officials from Departments of Transportation from across the country. The Clear Roads Spring Meeting took place the week of April 14 at the Radisson Hotel Providence Airport in Warwick, R.I. The conference, featured representation from 33 states, afforded an opportunity for transportation professionals to learn from each other about uses of innovative technology and equipment and other steps taken to more effectively and efficiently keep roads clear of snow and ice. This is the first time Rhode Island has hosted this conference, which occurs twice each year, and provided RIDOT an opportunity to learn from best practices employed elsewhere in the country. Peter Alviti Jr., RIDOT director, opened the conference by discussing management changes in the past year, including the conversion of 40 unfilled administrative positions, and eliminating such positions as photographer, to bolster its maintenance work-

force to provide additional personnel for winter storms and maintenance operations year round. Also at the conference, RIDOT announced that both calls from citizens reporting potholes and claims filed with the Department dropped significantly this winter season. In the past five years, RIDOT has averaged approximately 560 pothole claims per year. This past winter, RIDOT only received 148 claims — a drop of 75 percent. A similar sharp decline was observed in pothole calls, with the total number of calls received in March 2016 to date is less than a quarter of the pothole calls received in March 2015. “While most people think we had a milder than usual winter, our records show we actually experienced a typical winter season,” Alviti said. “The drop in calls and complaints is evidence of the many steps we have taken to bring about change at RIDOT and improve the quality of our roads for the traveling public.” RIDOT credits the drop in potholes to the use of automated pothole patching machines, brought into service to help

restore roads following the harsh winter of 2014-15. The machines operated throughout the summer and fall months, providing a more durable and longer lasting patch as compared with traditional methods. The pothole patching services utilize the latest spray-injection technology to repair potholes more efficiently and safely while ensuring a longer-lasting fix. The patchers (which are controlled by a single operator from the cab of a truck) are capable of cleaning away debris and filling a pothole in only a few minutes. The pothole patching machines were on duty this past winter, providing a reliable hot-mix equivalent (typically unavailable from December through March) for fixing potholes all season. RIDOT in 2015 also placed a high priority on resurfacing roads that had generated numerous pothole complaints for several years, such as Routes 37, 102, 116, Cumberland Hill Road and sections of I-95. The past winter also saw the debut of the state’s first-ever strategic salt reserve, meant to protect against national road salt shortages experienced in previous winters. RIDOT purchased an additional 20,000 tons

(18,143.7 t) of salt and stockpiled it at its Jefferson Boulevard salt facility to be used to supplement its normal inventory of 30,000 tons (27,215.5 t) should the need arise. RIDOT continues to grow its winter fleet as well, adding 13 new plow trucks for this past season, bringing its total to 115 trucks. A larger fleet allows the state to more effectively manage storms and reduces the need for private vendors to assist with winter operations. Launched in 2004 by experienced winter maintenance professionals, Clear Roads is a research program aimed at rigorous testing of winter maintenance materials, equipment, and methods for use by highway maintenance crews. RIDOT joined the peer exchange group in 2012 to take full advantage of the depth of research for winter maintenance operations as well as the direct relationship with its DOT partners across the country.

Until recently, Equipment East carried mostly heavy construction and screening equipment from Doosan, Keestrack, Yanmar, Liugong, Ramfos, Felling and Atlas Copco. According to Giovanni Albanese, founder of Equipment East, “I wanted to expand into the small tool/compact line because I think it’s important to be able to fully support our customers. Contractors not only need the large excavators, loaders and dump trucks, but all job sites require the

use of the smaller tools and parts as well,” he said. “[Customers can] come to Equipment East for all of their equipment and service needs. “Our staff and technicians are formally trained and certified to work on all of our new lines, so that we are able to provide our customers with the supreme customer sup-

port and turnaround they’re used to receiving. Our new line of equipment not only appeals to the everyday contractor, but also to our neighbors. Anyone in need of purchasing a small tool for yard work, home repair, or project can come to Equipment East. Not only can we provide them with a high-quality product, but we can back it will a full-service, maintenance and repair for years to come.” Equipment East works with its customers to provide them with the right equipment and construction attachment appropriate for their application. Its goal is to help increase the customer’s productivity and profitability, according to the company. For more information, call 978/697-3505 or visit www.equipmenteast.com.

MoNtPeLier, Vt. (AP) A fragmented Vermont supreme court sided with developers of a major solar power project in rutland town against the wishes of the town and its neighbors. the five-member court split three ways before ruling 3-2 in support of allowing construction of the rutland town project. the three-member majority was split 2-1 on one of the big issues in the case. the court upheld a ruling by the state Public service Board that gave the 2.3 megawatt rutland renewable energy project a green light. in doing so, it rehashed arguments heard at the Legislature over who should have greater say — the state or local communities — when developers come to a town looking to build solar and windpower projects. the town spent a year developing local solar siting standards, only to see them rejected by the Public service Board as carrying sufficient weight in

its consideration of the project at hand. town officials then authored a resolution, demanding greater local say over the projects. More than 150 of Vermont’s 251 municipalities signed on. the town and neighbors objected that the rutland renewable energy project would have undue aesthetic and historic impacts and would use prime agricultural land. they also sought to use an addendum to the town plan to slow the project or scale it back. But the court majority upheld the board’s findings that the opponents’ concerns did not outweigh the greater good of the state. it said it generally grants great deference to decisions by the board, which has expertise in energy issues. the “Legislature can change the balance between state and local regulation as it deems appropriate,” the majority opinion said. “in the absence of such a statutory change, the Board has the final policy decision. Under the deferential standard of review, we must uphold that policy choice.” the court decision came as a senate

committee was considering House changes to a senate-passed bill that would give towns and regional planning commissions more clout but call on them to develop energy plans comporting with a state goal of getting 90 percent of Vermont’s energy from renewables by 2050. Associate Justices John dooley iii and Marilyn skoglund wrote the majority opinion; Associate Justice Beth robinson wrote a concurrence that split in one respect from the majority, saying it didn’t grapple enough with the question of whether the board had given “due consideration” to the town’s concerns. chief Justice Paul reiber, who practiced law in rutland before former Gov. Jim douglas appointed him to the court, joined by Associate Justice Harold eaton, wrote a stinging dissent that called the Public service Board decision “self-serving” and “disingenuous at best.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

RIDOT Using Accelerated Method for East Bay Bridges Gov. Gina M. Raimondo joined with Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) officials to tour RIDOT’s accelerated bridge reconstruction project for the East Shore Expressway and McCormick Quarry bridges in East Providence, two examples of the many deficient bridges which RIDOT is going to fix as it moves forward with its RhodeWorks program. The bridges serve as a vital link in Rhode Island’s highway system, providing direct access for the East Shore Expressway (one bridge for each direction of travel) over Warren Avenue and connecting all of Rhode Island’s East Bay communities (East Providence, Barrington, Warren and Bristol) with I-195. Both bridges have structural deficiencies that cannot be addressed without a complete replacement. Already, area businesses and residents have been disrupted by a 17-ton (15.4 t) weight limit for the bridge carrying off-ramp traffic from I-195 East onto Route 114 South. The weight limit has been in effect for more than four years, requiring trucks to detour onto East Providence city streets. “When we took action to rebuild Rhode Island’s crumbling roads and bridges, we also committed to rebuilding RIDOT to be ready to manage these projects and deliver results on time and on budget,” said

Raimondo. “Today’s project update was a good opportunity to see firsthand the new methods RIDOT is putting in place to innovate in the department, move more quickly, and get the job done. We’re going to keep fixing bridges like this that are so important to the communities they serve, and we’re going to keep putting Rhode Islanders back to work in the process.” RIDOT will reconstruct the bridges by using precast foundation elements and by constructing the new bridge decks on large supports adjacent to the current bridges. When the new bridge decks are finished this fall, RIDOT will temporarily close the first structure (East Shore Expressway Bridge) and the road underneath and in one 80-hour extended weekend closure, will remove the old bridge and install the new one. The process will be repeated in approximately two weeks for the second structure, the McCormick Quarry Bridge. Using accelerated bridge construction methods, RIDOT will dramatically shorten the overall construction timeframe, completing the bridge one year earlier than would be possible using conventional construction methods. Additionally, if RIDOT had not taken this approach, the travelling public would have been impacted over the course of a year with each ramp only opened at half

capacity. “Rhode Island has the worst bridges in the country, and with a great sense of urgency we are exploring all options, including innovative accelerated bridge construction methods like we’re using on this project,” Peter Alviti Jr., RIDOT director said. “With careful and diligent oversight through our new project management approach, we are committed to delivering the project on time, on budget and with the highest quality.” These two bridges, originally built back in 1959, are being replaced through a $16.7 million project with a $663,000 budget contingency. The East Shore Expressway Bridge, which carries traffic from I-195 East to Route 114 South, carries 20,600 vehicles per day. The McCormick Quarry Bridge services 17,000 vehicles per day making the return trip from Route 114 North to I-195 West. The East Shore Expressway Bridge is classified as functionally obsolete, with significant concrete cracking that limits its ability to service large vehicles, resulting in the bridge’s 17-ton weight limit. The supports on the McCormick Quarry Bridge are severely deteriorated, and are supplemented with large wooden timbers to carry the bridge’s structural load. Pre-construction activities to relocate util-

ities and minor drainage work began last fall, with full construction resuming last month. Ongoing operations include excavation of the soil behind the bridge’s current supporting columns to make room for the construction of foundations for the new bridges. RIDOT also is making use of geosynthetic reinforced soil walls for the bridge’s abutments, which utilize layers of crushed stone and reinforcing fabric to quickly assemble the these foundation elements. In the coming weeks, motorists will see construction begin on the supporting structures for the new bridge decks, followed shortly by the delivery of large steel beams for the decks. Work will progress through the summer in completing the decks to the point where they can be installed using selfpropelled modular transporters — multiwheel dollies capable of lifting the bridge decks off their temporary supports, driving them toward the bridge’s foundations and setting them into place. Once installed, RIDOT will pave the bridge and approaches and open the road to traffic. For more information, visit www.dot.ri.gov.

Work on Massachusetts MGM Casino Kicking Into Full Gear MGM from page 1

opening.” The project endured a lengthy review by historic preservation authorities over the planned demolition of downtown buildings in the months after last year’s March 24 groundbreaking. Then MGM asked the state and city for permission to open a year later in September 2018, on account of a major interstate highway project happening nearby that it feared would impact the first year of operation. The company followed that request up by proposing cost saving design changes, including the controversial elimination of a 25-story glass hotel tower (in favor of a sixstory structure with the same 250 rooms) and a reduction in total square footage of the complex by about 10 percent. Even with the changes, the project has ballooned from $800 million to $950 million because of updated labor, material and administrative cost estimates. “Things happen on a complex project. It isn’t unique,” said Michael Mathis, MGM Springfield president. “It was less active than we planned. But it’s such a sprawling site that we were able to do some work all along the way.” Since the groundbreaking, Mathis said, underground utility work has been done and many downtown buildings have been razed or partly demolished to clear the 14.5-acre development site. Preparations are now under way for the first major new structure — a roughly 3,400space parking garage. Mathis said 700 construction workers have been employed to date. The project is required to provide a minimum of 2,000 temporary jobs during construction and 3,000 permanent ones when it opens. But Springfield and other government agencies will have to wait longer for their big payouts. The Las Vegas-based company is required to pay Springfield over $16 million before the casino opens and $25 million annually thereafter. Kennedy, of the Sarno administration, said MGM has so far met its financial obligations. It has paid the city about $8 million of the pre-opening payments, as scheduled. Another $4.5 million is due later this year, and the final $4 million comes in 2017. Massachusetts also claims a share of annual gambling revenues, and 10 surrounding cities and towns get more modest upfront and annual payments from the casino. Michael Fenton, Springfield City Council president said he’ll be watching the project

isn’t “further watered down” without fair compensation to the city. One open question, he said, is where MGM places a promised apartment complex eliminated in the new designs. The company has said the roughly 50 market-rate units be built within a half mile of the casino but not on site. MGM’s involvement in the casino debate in nearby Connecticut is also worrying,

Fenton said. Connecticut lawmakers have authorized the two tribes that separately own Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun to seek a new site for a jointly-run casino, likely in the Hartford-area near Springfield. But MGM has sued in federal court, arguing the law violates the U.S. constitution by giving the two tribes an unfair advantage over other would-be developers. It’s also helping finance another federal complaint by the Schaghticoke Tribal Nation that makes similar arguments. “I have no issues with MGM trying to stop the expansion of Connecticut gaming,” Fenton said. “But if they’re teaming up with another tribe to compete with the Springfield casino, I have a real big problem with that.” Mathis declined to discuss the Connecticut lawsuits in detail. “It has nothing to do with our day-to-day job here,” he said. “We’re focused on getting this project built. There’s a separate part of the company that’s pursuing opportunities in Connecticut and other parts of the country and the rest of the world.” Meanwhile, Wynn Resorts is hoping to open a $1.7 billion Boston-area resort in late 2018 and the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe said it’ll break ground in April on a resort near Cape Cod that could open as soon as next year. Plainridge Park, a slots parlor in Plainville, opened last summer. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
