Bove Industries Leads Way for Route 112 Reconstruction

A Cat 980G removes the excavated asphalt.

Bove Industries is a privately held company with a current staff of approximately 100 office and field employees that work on Route 112 and other various projects throughout the Long Island and New York City regions. Bove Industries was started in 1985 by the owner and current President/CEO Louis J. Bove. Located in East Setauket, N.Y., Bove Industries has developed into a major sitework and heavy/highway contractor on Long Island and over the past five years has become very active in the New York City construction market both in the private and public sectors. Its scope of work includes but not limited too; mass excavation, all types of underground utility work, concrete foundations, sheeting and shoring work. During the past two years the firm has diversified and ventured into the specialized field of directional drilling to add to its field of expertise. Recently, the New York State Department of Transportation awarded Bove Industries a $38 million project for the reconstruction of Route 112 between CR83 and Route 347 in Port Jefferson Station, N.Y. At the time of letting, this was the largest ARRA project released to date by NYSDOT. This 3.2-mi. (5.1 km) long project has several components and when completed will improve traffic flow for motorists, improve pedestrian safety and eliminate roadway flooding, not to mention promote a greener environment for the community. To improve traffic flow and safety, NYSDOT has proposed to widen the roadway to include center medians and turning lanes. The addition of a new improved traffic informed system will also assist the flow of traffic through many of the existing intersections that make up this stretch of roadway. Water and drainage improvements are a significant part of this project. The drainage work consists of installing 30,000 linear ft. (9.144 m) of concrete pipe, and approximately 202 structures, some of which are placed to depths in excess of 30 ft. (9.1 m).

This work required the use of temporary steel sheeting, however due to the proximity of the existing overhead electrical lines and the inability to de-energize these lines for an appreciable amount of time, Bove and NYSDOT partnered to re-design the shoring system using the GME Slide Rail System. In order to complete the drainage work, the expansion of one existing recharge basin and the excavation of two new recharge basins were necessary; a total of approximately 60,000 cu. yds. (50,167 sq m) of material was removed. “We would not be able to complete this job without the Caterpillar 365C excavator that we purchased specifically for this project. We did not own an excavator in this

Peterson’s BT40 Blower Truck a Hit With Varsity

In February, Cleveland Brothers delivered hose reel. With remote control operations, a Peterson BT40 blower truck to erosion only two people are needed to run the truck, control specialists Varsity Inc. of and an automatic reel on the back of the Swoyersville, Luzerne County, Pa. The truck manages the hose. Planks on the truck truck is the first of its kind sold in northeast floor “walk” and shift the load, preventing Pennsylvania. the bridging that can happen in V blowers. Al Nocerine, Varsity’s project manager, said, “The new truck fills the 24- and 32-inch erosion control ‘socks’that the DEP now requires for erosion control and hydroseeding at drilling sites.” Varsity is a certified Filtrexx supplier. Filtrexx FilterSoxx erosion control socks are biodegradable tubes that can be filled with a variety of organic materials including wood chips, mulch and compost. “The ‘socks’can be placed along a river bank, or you can put them along the highway.” Nocerine said. “The application can be used anywhere. This Peterson truck gives us the ability to go 550 feet.” Varsity chose a Peterson truck for Peterson’s BT40 fills erosion control “socks” required two reasons: Its walking floor and its by the DEP.

The Peterson BT40 blower truck enables work to be done as far as 550 ft. (167 m) away.

“It actually walks the product to the back. It walks the product to the front,” Nocerine said. “It’s pretty amazing. After a day at the end of the hose, you’re kind of tired,” Nocerine said. “You don’t want to drag 500 feet of hose.” Varsity once used a Peterson truck rented from Cleveland Brothers to install a third-floor roof garden on a Hudson River apartment building. Cleveland Brothers, which sells Peterson machines, brought reliable service and an extensive parts net-

work to the deal, Nocerine said. “I’ve known our rep, Jeff Connolly, for a long time,” he said. “Cleveland Brothers is great to deal with, and the service is wonderful. When the truck was delivered, Cleveland Brothers service spent half a day learning the truck. They said this will be something we’ll work together on.” With the Peterson blower truck, Varsity is positioned to win contracts reclaiming drilling sites to DEP specifications — and getting the job done right the first time. Nocerine said, “We figured this was a great business to get into on the ground floor.”

The Power of Product and Support www.takeuchi-us.com

JCB Chairman Sir Anthony Bamford is giving assistance worth $250,000, including two 4CX backhoe loaders, to help in the reconstruction of Pakistan in the wake of the devastating floods.

JCB Chairman Sir Anthony Bamford pledged assistance worth $250,000 to help in the reconstruction effort in the wake of the devastating floods in Pakistan. He is donating two high specification 4CX backhoe loaders with attachments to the stricken country where the worst floods in decades have left millions people homeless and where rebuilding costs are expected to be in the region of $17 billion. Bamford said: “Britain has been leading the way with the level of its donations to Pakistan, and as a British manufacturer I am keen for us to help in any way possible and hope that JCB’s donation of machines can assist in some small way.” It is not the first time that JCB has helped Pakistan in times of natural disaster. After the 2005 earthquake the company donated excavators to help in the clean up operation. Earlier this year JCB donated equipment to help the disaster relief effort in Haiti fol-

lowing the devastating earthquake that killed approximately 220,000 people. This was followed by assistance worth $100,000 to help in the rebuilding efforts in the wake of the Chilean earthquake disaster. Bamford donated a 3C backhoe loader complete with attachments and spare parts to help with reconstruction efforts in the country’s second city Concepcion which was hit by an 8.8magnitude quake, killing more than 700 people. The contribution to the aid effort follows a series of other JCB machinery donations in recent years to other parts of the world hit by natural disasters, including the 2008 earthquake in Sichuan Province in China, when six backhoe loaders worth more than $600,000 and a team of operators were sent from the company’s factory in Shanghai to help the clear-up effort in the region. JCB also donated machines to help in the aftermath of the Asian Tsunami in 2004.

NYC’s 9/11 Museum to Be Built Below Memorial Plaza MUSEUM from page 1

said architect Steven Davis, a partner at Davis Brody Bond Aedas, “you’d be saying ‘wow, how cool.’ But because it’s underground … the progress is less than evident.” Wearing hardhats and protective eye gear, the media reached bedrock level — where the main exhibition spaces will be located — along temporary wooden stairs and a freight elevator. When the museum opens in 2012, the tour will start at an above-ground glass pavilion, where a 665-ft. (200 m) long “ribbon,” or gently sloped ramp, will carry visitors through the site. The ribbon — reminiscent of the ramp that workers used to build the original towers and during the recovery efforts following the attacks — will wind down 45 ft. (13.7 m) to the Memorial Hall, or lobby, past a three-pronged trident column recovered from the trade center rubble.

The memory of the twin towers is triggered from different areas of the museum by the depth of the memorial pools in the cavernous site. The pools will be clad in a recycled aluminum material similar to that used in the original towers. Special lighting will make them appear to be floating over the space. “They exist in true reference to their place and their position on the site so you can see immediately the relationship of the placement of the memorial pools with the actual location of the tower footprint itself,” Davis said. “This is something we thought was very important, this spatial accuracy.” Parapets of varying heights along the ramp will reveal different parts of the museum as visitors go down. Museum architect Mark Wagner said the ramp is not intended to be a bold architectural statement, but rather an access path that allows the events of 9/11 to unfold. On

Aug. 10, it was still covered in rough concrete. The surface will be dark wood, while the underside will be muted, finished in dark, raw metal. Stairs or an escalator will provide the final 25-ft. (7.6 m) descent to bedrock, and to a trapezoidal expanse containing the 60-ft. (18 m) high slurry wall that held back the Hudson. “You begin to understand that the slurry wall is the separation between the basement of the original trade center” and the river, Davis said. The last standing 36-ft. (11 m) steel column that was removed from the trade center debris at the end of the nine-month recovery effort in 2002 stands in front of the slurry wall. It became a spontaneous memorial to the victims; construction workers and family members covered it with tributes, photographs and inscriptions. On Aug. 10, it was sheathed in a climate-controlled covering.

The tower’s foundational steel box columns are exposed at bedrock in the floor slabs, providing an outline of the buildings. The federal government said the column bases and slurry wall should remain in place. The final descent runs parallel to the Vesey Street stairs, known as the survivors’ staircase, encased in wooden scaffolding on Aug. 10. The 37 steps served as an escape route for people fleeing. It stood for years as the last remaining above-ground remnant of the original complex. There also are several places where visitors can stand between the remnants of the two towers. Thousands of unidentified remains of 9/11 victims will be stored in the museum, in an area reserved for the medical examiner’s office; an adjacent room will be set aside for family members. These areas will be off limits to the public.

A quotation from Virgil’s “Aeneid”, “No Day Shall Erase You From the Memory of Time,” will be incised into the wall that separates the private and public spaces. “The wall is only a membrane that separates us from them, and it’s our obligation to remember,” said museum director Alice Greenwald. Anthoula Katsimatides, whose brother died in the attacks, said she hoped visitors will “learn something about one of those beautiful people who passed away on that day” and come away with “a sense of peace and a sense of hope.” The idea for the museum design began with “all the things we were given,” the remnants of the complex. “A traditional museum design is an icon which contains exhibits,” he said. “But this museum, the icon is the exhibit.”

Obama Plan Calls for 150,000 Miles of Road Rebuilding PLAN from page 1

this year. When Congress returns from summer recess in midSeptember, it is likely to remain in session for only a few weeks before lawmakers return home to campaign for re-election. Administration officials said that even if Congress quickly approved the program, it would not produce jobs until sometime next year. That means the proposal's only pre-election impact may be a political one as the White House tries to demonstrate to voters that it is working to boost the economy and create jobs. At a Labor Day speech in Milwaukee, Obama said Republicans are betting that between now and the Nov. 2 elections, Americans will forget the Republican economic policies that led to the recession. He said Republicans have opposed virtually everything he has done to help the economy, and have proposed solutions that have only made the problem worse. “That philosophy didn’t work out so well for middle-class fami-

lies all across America,” Obama said. “It didn’t work out so well for our country. All it did was rack up record deficits and result in the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.” He said Republicans have consistently opposed his economic proposals. Republicans made clear that Obama should not expect any help from them. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell said the plan “should be met with justifiable skepticism.” He said it would raise taxes while Americans are “still looking for the ‘shovelready’ jobs they were promised more than a year ago” in the $814 billion economic stimulus measure. The Republican leader in the House of Representatives, John Boehner, added “We don't need more government ‘stimulus’ spending. We need to end Washington Democrats’ out-ofcontrol spending spree, stop their tax hikes, and create jobs by eliminating the job-killing uncertainty that is hampering our small busi-

The plan calls for rebuilding 150,000 mi. (241,400 km) of roads; building and maintaining 4,000 mi. (6,400 km) of rail lines and 150 mi. (240 km) of airport runways, and installing a new air navigation system to reduce travel times and delays.

nesses.” Administration officials are hunting broadly for ways to revive the economy. But they are likely to drop a separate proposal to renew a law exempting companies from paying federal pension taxes on any unemployed workers they hire, according to a White

House official who spoke on condition of anonymity because the decision was not final. Obama acknowledged that the past eight months of modest private-sector job growth hasn’t been enough to bring down the unemployment rate. Administration officials said

the transportation plan’s initial $50 billion would be the beginning of a six-year program of transportation improvements, but they did not give an overall figure. The proposal has a longer-range focus than last year’s economic stimulus bill, which was more targeted on immediate job creation. The plan calls for rebuilding 150,000 mi. (241,400 km) of roads; building and maintaining 4,000 mi. (6,400 km) of rail lines and 150 mi. (240 km) of airport runways, and installing a new air navigation system to reduce travel times and delays. Obama also called for a permanent funding mechanism, an infrastructure bank, to focus on paying for national and regional infrastructure projects. Officials provided few details of how the bank would work. Obama said the proposal would be fully paid for. In an earlier briefing for reporters, administration officials said Obama would pay for the program by asking lawmakers to close tax breaks for oil and gas companies and multinational corporations.

‘Sandhogs’Take to Tunnels for Historic, Massive Project TUNNEL from page 1

paving phase of Tunnel 3 under Manhattan. The final phase involves installation of piping, mechanical and electrical systems, a process that won’t be completed until sometime in 2013 and will cost another $176 million. As construction projects go, Tunnel 3 is one of the more curious in engineering annals. For the most part it has been ongoing for decades almost completely out of sight of millions of people living within a few hundred feet of it. Other ongoing underground NYC construction projects – including mass transit ventures like the East Side access and Second Avenue subway – are significant, but they don’t measure up, or down, to Tunnel 3. Tunnel 3 is incomparable in terms of its duration through six city administrations, its massive cost – the Manhattan tunneling phase alone cost $680 million – and its demanding logistics, requiring hardhat labor at depths of 400 to 800 ft. (121 to 242 m) for miles and miles on end. It’s All About Water “We can live without a lot of things, water is not one of them,” Mayor Michael Bloomberg has said in backing the tunnel project. The mayor alluded to the city’s responsibility to furnish some 1.5 billion gal. of water each day to 9 million NYC metropolitan area residents for drinking, cooking and bathing. Almost as important, the water is a necessity for firefighting. City fathers found all this to be true in the 19th century when a series of epidemics stemming from bad water ran through the

city and then a devastating fire struck it. Consequently, a series of aqueducts from upstate New York were dug to supply greater volumes of water to the city from watersheds as far as 125 mi. (200 km) away. Then early in the 20th century, two tunnels were created to disperse the gravity-fed water to the five city boroughs. Tunnel 1 was completed in 1917 and Tunnel 2 in 1936. They were constructed painstakingly — literally, with some tunneling workers dying from the “bends” as a consequence of their work in underground pressurized caissons. Their work was not in vain, however, for the two tunnels have been

an unqualified success. That’s the problem: They are indispensable. They have never been out of service – and need to be. Like any other infrastructure, the rub of constant utilization erodes and debilitates surfaces and wears out mechanical and electrical systems. Construction of Tunnel 3 will let water be diverted from Tunnels 1 and then 2 so that much-needed inspection and repair of the two older tunnels will be possible. Mayor Bloomberg has among other degrees a bachelor of engineering from John S. Hopkins University. He made completion of the tunnel a city funding priority.

“I looked at our water tunnels and, in the past six years we have dedicated more money in this area than did the previous five administrations combined,” he told an interviewer for Leaders Magazine in 2008. “A third tunnel will give us redundancy and more capacity and because of the way it’s designed, it will let us turn off each of the two old ones, which nobody has looked at before. We’re afraid to turn them off because we think we may not be able to turn them back on, and there’s a worry that without water in them, they will collapse.” While there is as yet no repair schedule, Tunnel 1 will be the first one drained and scrutinized. It is the oldest and most vital of the two. The city’s Department of Environmental Protection, which manages the New York City water supply, will send inspectors into the tunnels for a meticulous assessment of tunnel walls and valves. When Tunnel 3 is completely functioning and inspection of the other two tunnels proceeds, the water will flow unabated. Everything is tied to keeping the water constantly moving – hundreds of millions of gallons a day – from one tunnel or another, up through vertical shafts spaced periodically along the way, into 7,000 mi. (11,200 km) of water mains and finally into lines serving homes and commercial buildings. Building the Tunnel Construction of Tunnel 3 involved a variety of general contractors through the years, but it utilized the same union of craftspeople who gave the city the Holland and Lincoln see TUNNEL page 28

Frank Bardonaro Jr. to Resign as AmQuip President, CEO AmQuip Crane Rental LLC Aug. 24 announced that Frank Bardonaro Jr. has stepped down as president and CEO of the company. He will maintain his relationship with AmQuip through a newly-created board position, and he will retain his shareholdings in the company. It will be “business as usual at AmQuip,” commented Richard Bard, AmQuip’s board chairman (and CEO of Bard Capital Group, an investor in the company). “All issues previously directed to Frank Bardonaro will be handled by Al Bove, COO, who joined AmQuip last December,” he added. Bove is an industry veteran, having been COO of General Crane’s operations in the southwest and western United States prior to joining AmQuip. He was the CEO at Maxim

Topcon vs. Trimble in head-to-head MC competition Vince Lombardi knew a thing or two about competing and winning. The legendary football coach noted that everyone in the race runs, but only one wins. So he summarized his philosophy in three small words — run to win. It was a sound idea then. And it is one that Topcon has philosophically — and literally — taken and run with today. Take Topcon’s 3D-MC2 technology. Promoted as fastest in the industry. Most precise. Most productive. Most efficient. Saying it is one thing … but how do you prove it? The answer: you line the system up head-to-head against its main competitor… and let the results speak for themselves. That’s exactly what Topcon did at its May Technology Road Show in Livermore, California. Topcon placed its industry-leading 3D-MC2 system — operating on a John Deere 750 dozer — up against a Trimble GCS 900 system operating on a CAT D-6 dozer. “Our biggest challenge is how to convey just how great the system is,” said Tony Vanneman, Topcon construction products

3D-MC2 enhances the production, performance and ease of operation.

John Bennetti Pape Machinery

marketing manager. “Telling people is one thing. But we wanted them to be able to see it, feel it and experience it. “The Topcon 3D-MC2 outperformed the Trimble GCS 900 system operating at twice the speed and accuracy of the competition. “Everything we do is geared toward helping our customers understand for themselves,” he continued. “What differences does the system deliver? What level of production gains does it deliver? What level of accuracy does it deliver? And how much money can customers make by using the right machine control system on their earth moving equipment?” That kind of bottom-line focus is imperative in today’s challenging economic climate, Vanneman said. “Lots of contractors are

finding themselves in one of two positions. Either they have some work and need to squeeze every bit of profit they can out of it. Or they don’t have enough — or any — work and they’ve got to change their approach and business process to compete more effectively for the work that is out there. The 3D-MC2 system is a tremendous tool in both of those situations.” Vanneman explained, “When you enable a contractor to get on grade and move that material where it needs to be moved in fewer passes, good things happen. You use fewer man hours. You use less fuel. There’s less wear and tear on your equipment. And that translates to lower operating expense.” Tom King, Topcon California area manager, agreed. “I brought several customers who own the Trimble system. Some of them have been operating heavy equipment for 30-40 years. They got off the equipment using 3D-MC2 equipment grinning ear-to-ear. They were in utter awe as to how it performed.” King worked for Trimble for 13 years before joining Topcon. “Some of the people I invited

had purchased Trimble systems. We put ‘em on the 3D-MC2 system to let them see and experience the difference for themselves. They could not believe how smooth it performed and how well it reacted in the vertical curve.” John Benetti is sales manager for Pape Machinery, which provided the John Deere dozer on which the 3D-MC2 system performed. He noted: “Competition in the earth moving machinery market segment is unprecedented. As a result, we are constantly looking for ways to set our machines apart from the other folks out there — a feature or functionality that makes John Deere look good. That’s what the Topcon system does for us. It unquestionably enhances the production, performance and ease of operation of the John Deere dozer. “Customers are still talking about it,” Benetti continued. “As they lay out their upcoming purchasing decisions, it definitely elevated Topcon in their decision making process. And from our standpoint, it also allowed our machine to stand out and really differentiated us in the marketplace.” The technology road shows also provide customers additional, important benefits, Vanneman said. “They are treated to a presentation that explains how our core systems and technology operate, and how they represent the very latest in technological advances. Most importantly, we relate how all that can provide them an advantage in a very competitive marketplace. “We also spend time on what’s happening right now within the industry,” Vanneman continued. “And we take a look at what’s coming down the road – exploring and explaining the universal trends that will affect everyone’s lives in the dirt moving business.” But clearly, the opportunity to operate the Topcon system alongside its competitor and compare the results was the highlight of the day.” Advertisement: Topcon Positioning Systems

Sandhogs Continue Burrowing Under New York City TUNNEL from page 24

tunnels and mile upon mile of functioning subway and sewer tunnels. They are members of Laborers Local Union No. 147, affectionately called “Sandhogs.” The name came from their first job rooting around in sand during construction of footings for the Brooklyn Bridge. They are categorized as miners – urban miners – because they often dig through subterranean rock and soil. They differ from other miners in that their tunneling is the purpose of their labor. But as in other mining work, it can be dangerous: 24 people have died in the course of Tunnel 3’s construction, though none in recent years. Regardless of the dangers involved, in some NYC families Sandhogs go back for several generations. It is a testament to the unique appeal of the work, to Local 147’s attractive wages and to the pride that comes from laying the foundation, almost literally, for many of the monumental commercial and infrastructure projects in the city.

Experiencing New River Gorge Bridge From Beneath It By Monica Orosz

CHARLESTON DAILY MAIL

People can drive across the engineering marvel known as the New River Gorge Bridge any day they want. Once a year, during Bridge Day, they can walk across the longest single arch bridge in the Western Hemisphere, or if they are so bold, leap from it with a parachute or rappel down on a high line. Now add another way to experience the second highest bridge in the United States — walking under it, along the 24-in.-wide catwalk that spans the bridge 25 ft. below its deck. Bridge Walk is the newest tourist attraction in Fayette County and as soon as the weather cooperates and the walkway from the Canyon Rim Visitor’s Center here to the catwalk is complete, anyone who has the nerve and the ability to walk about a mile and half can take in a breathtaking and panoramic view of the New River Gorge from this vantage point. “I think this will be on a lot of people's bucket list,” said Benjy Simpson, a longtime Fayetteville adventurer and businessman who is one of the partners in Bridge Walk LLC, which is composed of six partners who are operating the tour business in cooperation with the U.S. Parks Service and the state Department of Transportation.

“If you can walk 1 1/2 to 2 miles, you can do this,” said Simpson, who is a good advertisement for what he preaches. He is recovering from a broken hip suffered in a mountain bicycling accident and he has hobbled along the 3,030-foot catwalk using crutches. “A third of our guests are going to be my age or older,” Simpson, 62, predicted. Children as young as 10 who are at least 4 ft. tall will be able to cross the catwalk. The catwalk will be open for tours year round and Simpson envisions special events during full moons, for Halloween and even Easter Sunday morning at sunrise. He loves to talk about the juxtaposition of what the bridge offers — a view of one of the world's most amazing manmade structures, which crosses one of nature's most amazing structures. “This is not going to be an amusement ride,” Simpson said of the tours that will begin with an educational presentation at the visitor's center. Along the catwalk, tour guides will point out coal mine entrances and lookout points along the gorge and point to the whitewater riffs below. Bridge Walk has been three years and a half-million dollars in the making, said Simpson — though the 1978 management plan by the U.S. Parks Service for the area proposed catwalk tours. Simpson and his partners had to draw up

a proposal for a proper walkway to the catwalk and a safety harness system. “It was a long process,” he said. “We had to jump through a lot of hoops.” Once plans were approved, construction began — including grading the hillside beside the bridge and hoisting into place more than 60 steel supports that are bolted to the underside of the bridge so that the safety cable system could be installed. Visitors step into a harness that wraps around their legs and is latched into straps that attach to the safety cables via transfasteners that allow you to walk across the catwalk securely attached to the safety cable. “It’s there for your protection. If you were to fall, you're not going anywhere,” Simpson said. He has led enough tours of the catwalk — which right now can be accessed only by a ladder — that he has developed a soothing way of talking skittish visitors across the span. He says he can tell by looking someone in the eye if he or she will make it. “I’ve had some people go 200 feet and turn back,” he said. Stick with him, though, and you’ll get the view of a lifetime — and some pretty good bragging rights. The catwalk is immediately disconcerting. I hadn’t accounted for the fact that the catwalk vibrates because of the traffic over-

head. The vibrations are stronger in some places than others. Heights also take on different, well, height, when you are in the open air. The catwalk starts about 250 ft. from the ground. At the center of the bridge, you are standing 850 ft. above the New River. Once paths are completed at both ends, visitors will cross from east to west and be picked up by a shuttle. The tour is expected to take as long as two hours from beginning to end and will cost $69 a person — including a certificate for completing the walk. Simpson and his partners expected to open in the spring, but rainy weather has slowed construction. He’s now hopeful the Bridge Walk will be up and running by the end of the month. Already, he has received calls from as far as Germany, Australia, New Zealand and Peru. “That amazes me,” Simpson said. “We really appreciate everybody's patience and cooperation.” The bridge can accommodate 100 visitors at a time, though Simpson said groups as small as four can book walks. His business partners include Bruce Vest, a coal operator from Kanawha County, Simpson’s son, Benjy Simpson III, two principals in Ace Adventures who separately are partnering in Bridge Walk and Adventures on the Gorge, an outdoors outfitter. Simpson will help coordinate tours.

Roadways Busy

PHILADELPHIA (AP) Drivers in the Philadelphia region are increasingly finding themselves sitting in gridlock with the number of road repair and construction projects, many of them funded by stimulus money, now in progress along area highways. In Philadelphia and the four surrounding counties, $646 million in federal and state money is being spent on roadwork, almost twice as much as is ordinarily approved for the region, according to Pennsylvania Department of Transportation officials. “We’re in a record year of construction coming off a record year of contract awards,” PennDOT spokesman Gene Blaum said. “We can only do so much to minimize the impact. We have to be on the roadway.” Stimulus money has provided billions for state and local governments to build and repair roads and bridges. Blaum said the $257.7 million for the five-county region has started 30 projects that otherwise wouldn’t have happened for a number of years. New Jersey also is topping records for road and bridge work, largely due to $652 million in federal stimulus aid, said Tim Greeley, a spokesman of the state Department of Transportation. “All of these construction projects are a necessary evil,” said Jim Lardear, director of public and government affairs of AAAMid-Atlantic, which covers the region from Virginia through New Jersey. “With the feds pushing stimulus money out the door ... there is just no easy answer around congestion.” Blaum said the state transportation department is not the sole source of the tie-ups, since utility work also is being done along with projects by municipalities. And the Pennsylvania Turnpike said it is doing two major widening projects in Montgomery and Chester Counties, and overhead bridges must be rebuilt before roadwork begins. Lardear said recent polling by his organization in the Philadelphia area indicates that drivers think congestion is getting worse and is a major source of a growing problem of aggressive driving. “In construction zones, there is little margin for driver error,” he said.

Gas Drilling Companies: W.Va.’s New H.O. Penn Names Road-Repair Rules Too Expensive Callahan Product By Vicki Smith

ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) Transportation Secretary Paul Mattox wants natural gas drilling companies to anticipate and pay for the wear and tear they’re causing West Virginia’s country roads, many of which have “more or less evolved from a mere wagon trail.” But at least one industry official complains the new rules — issued in an Aug. 4 memo — are vague, unreasonable and potentially too expensive for some to bear. “These go well above and beyond what is necessary to safeguard roadways in the state, and we are assessing our response,” said Charlie Burd, executive director of the Independent Oil and Gas Association of West Virginia. Gas companies have no choice but to rely on rural roads as they rush to tap the rich Marcellus shale reserves. But residents are frustrated by both the volume of traffic and damage, Mattox wrote, and so are county road crews whose budgets are geared toward regular maintenance, not major repairs and construction. His memo requires gas project planners to meet with local highway supervisors and agree on various obligations for widening, paving and drainage — before, during and after a drilling job. Companies would have to post road-repair bonds ranging from $50,000 to $100,000 per mile, depending on whether the road is topped with gravel, tar and chip, or pavement. Those amounts could increase if bridges are in the agreedupon truck routes. “`Let’s say you were 10 miles off the main highway to a well site. That’s a million-dollar bond. The bond’s more than three times as much as the well,” Burd said.“This has the potential of being catastrophic in nature to conventional wells, and it could be very harmful to Marcellus wells.” Burd also complained the rules are unclear about things such as who must purchase right of way, who’s responsible for the physical completion of the work and whether that work must comply with state purchasing laws if it’s done by the gas companies. Marcellus shale underlies Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and New York, and drilling is in high gear in both Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia. The gas is locked in tightly compacted rock a mile underground, and freeing it requires unconventional horizontal drilling technologies and vast amounts of water. That means traffic in the form of trucks carrying large equipment and water on roads not built to withstand the weight or damage. The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation also is considering whether to increase bond limits for its roads.

The current requirements — $6,000 per mile for an unpaved road, $12,500 per mile for a hard-surface road — do not protect taxpayers, given the far-higher cost of repairing roads today, said Elam Herr, the assistant executive director of the Pennsylvania State Association of Township Supervisors. Despite the many reports of damaged roads, Herr said many municipal officials say gas companies are generally working diligently to ensure roads are fixed and passable. When drilling first started in remote Wetzel County, retiree Ray Renaud put a time-lapse camera in his window and counted as many as 50 trucks an hour passing his home near New Martinsville. Chesapeake Energy has responded well to complaints, he said, providing warning trucks and repairing one damaged road last fall. By spring, however, traffic had again destroyed the road. “I moved here for the serenity of the country. Fifty trucks an hour and living in an industrial zone is not serenity,” said Renaud, an emergency medical technician who also worries about safety and accidents. In 2003, lawmakers approved legislation that allowed overweight coal trucks to travel on designated routes in southern West Virginia. Hauling companies were required to buy permits, with the money used to maintain the roads and bridges along the routes. The Department of Transportation realized it needed a similar system to address the growing needs of the gas industry, said spokesman Brent Walker. Many drilling companies are fine, responsible operators, he said, and the new rules are a response to “a few irresponsible companies kind of making it harder on the rest of the industry.” Corky DeMarco, executive director of the West Virginia Oil and Gas Association, acknowledged his industry must address the concerns of both citizens and state officials. Although gas industry leaders had been attending informal talks about roads in meetings hosted by a handful of state legislators, DeMarco said they did not sit down with Mattox or the DOT to craft the rules they were given. Though many details have to be worked out, he said companies are “generally open and receptive” to Mattox’s requirements. Bonding, for example, could become “an accounting nightmare” for some companies. The upside of the DOT plan, however, is that everyone will understand what’s expected before a project begins. “This is like the old Fram oil filter commercial: You either pay me now or pay me later,” DeMarco said. “We’re going to be paying one way or another. What’s going to cost us less in the long run? I think working with the highways department and doing the plan beforehand.”

PEORIA, Ill. (AP) Caterpillar Inc. plans to spend about $180 million to expand its manufacturing capacity in Brazil and meet growing demand in Latin America. The world’s largest maker of construction and mining equipment said Sept. 1 that it had purchased an existing manufacturing plant in Campo Largo, Brazil, and over the next two years, it plans to expand its existing plant at Piracicaba, Brazil. Caterpillar said the Campo Largo facility will produce backhoes and small-wheel loaders used in construction. It is expected to begin production during 2011, and it will employ as many as 1,000 people at full capacity. Caterpillar’s Rich Lavin said this Brazilian expansion will help the company based in Peoria, Ill., serve its growing customer base in Latin America.

Whitcher Builder Constructs Island Hideaway in N.H. By Jennifer Hetrick

CEG EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

Smedley Crane & Rigging, the New England dealer of Eagle West Equipment Inc., of Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada, shares a common service belief, “total lifting solutions,” and as the exclusive distributor/dealer in New England for San Marco cranes and Boscaro products it is currently in the process of living up to that belief. Whitcher Builder Inc., Strafford, N.H., is putting up a 2,800 sq. ft. home on an island in Bow Lake, Strafford, N.H. The structure will be made almost entirely of glass, with TriCast Inc., from Somersworth, N.H., performing the steel erection for the project. Work began in April and will most likely continue into spring 2011. Mike Whitcher, president of Whitcher Builder Inc., needed a crane that would be able to hoist a 3,000 lb. skylight, one of the focal points of the house. The beams weigh approximately 4,500 lbs. and stand 3 ft. tall. He is using a San Marco SMH 421 selferecting tower crane that he rented from Smedley Crane & Rigging, Branford, Conn., one of the largest in Eagle West’s network of 10 dealerships covering 24 of the lower 48 states. The small island that Whitcher is working on does not provide enough working space for the crane to do its job, so Blackdog Divers, Portsmouth, N.H., built an interlocking barge system on which to position the crane. The barge has four sections, each one measuring 10 by 30 ft. (3 by 9.1 m). The barge itself had to be shipped to Strafford in three loads and took four hours to put together. The crane was shipped in three loads but required only nine hours of set-up time, including mounting it to the barge. Once the crane/barge system was ready, a pontoon boat pushed it across the lake and into place beside the island. The barge was then spudded and chained to the island. The crane is held in place on the barge by concrete counterweights and mats are used to distribute the weight across the barge, which can support 350,000 lbs. (158,757 kg) The SMH 421 crane has a standing weight of just 99,207 lbs. (45,000 kg) so a 3.5:1 safety factor was achieved. With the barge and crane successfully in place, the work on the house itself could begin. Piece of cake. Or not. “Most people wouldn’t do it

Boscaro Crane accessories are also provided through Smedley Crane & Rigging and the Eagle West distribution network. “A complicated thing executed correctly appears elegant – that’s what we’ve done,” said Gerry Wiebe, vice president of sales and business development, Eagle West Equipment Inc. The Smedley Company was founded in 1860. The Palmer family is the current owner of Smedley, with the fourth generation of the family running the business at this time. The original markets served by the company included general merchandise; warehousing household goods; storage and moving; and transportation and rigging. Smedley still serves those industries today, but in the past 50 years the focus has shifted to a greater concentration in the markets of heavy Working with massive equipment in a massive lake is no easy hauling, rigging, plant relocatask, but the team of Smedley, Eagle West and San Marco found tions, crane rentals and milla way to make it work for Whitcher. wright work.

focus became noticeably more commercial, and the company trained staff, computerized, strengthened the estimating department and became involved in several formal training programs. By 1990, more than 75 percent of its business was commercial, with more than 60 percent of the jobs being public projects. Over the past ten years, Whitcher Builders has risen to the top tier among building contractors and has been consistently listed as one of the top 20 construction firms within the state of New Hampshire since 1996.

Private Sector, Construction Add Jobs in August; Construction Spending Drops in July Nonfarm payroll employment in August fell by 54,000, seasonally adjusted, as layoffs of temporary Census workers swamped an increase of 67,000 in private-sector payrolls, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported. The unemployment rate in August was 9.6 percent (9.5 percent, not seasonally adjusted), up slightly from 9.5 percent in July. “In construction, employment was up by 19,000 in August; however, about half of the increase was due to the return of 10,000 workers to their jobs following a strike in July,” BLS Commissioner Keith Hall said in a statement. “On net, construction employment is about unchanged since March.” The construction unemployment rate in August was 17.0 percent, not seasonally adjusted, the highest August rate since BLS began calculating industry rates in 1976 and up from 16.5 percent a year before. (Unadjusted rates for industries with large seasonal swings, such as construction, should be compared only to the same month in past years, not across months. BLS does not disseminate seasonally adjusted industry rates.) Over the past year, seasonally adjusted construction employment declined by 274,000 (4.7 percent) with decreases in all five BLS categories: nonresidential specialty trade contractors, 123,700 (5.8 percent); residential specialty trade contractors, 63,200 (4.0 percent); residential building, 45,700 (7.4 percent); nonresidential building, 31,900 (4.5 percent); and heavy and civil engineering construction, 10,000 (1.2 percent). Architectural and engineering services employment, a harbinger of future demand for construction, was flat for the month and down 24,400 (1.9 percent) over 12 months.

Average hourly earnings for all workers in construction rose 3 cents to $25.20 in August, seasonally adjusted, and 28 cents (1.1 percent) from August 2009. Construction spending fell 1.0 percent in July to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $805 billion, a 10-year low and a drop of 11 percent from July 2009, the Census Bureau reported. Totals for June and May were revised down. Private nonresidential spending rose 0.8 percent for the month, due mainly to an 8 percent rise in power construction. But private nonresidential spending plunged 24 percent from a year earlier and all 11 of Census’ categories fell, most at double-digit rates. Public construction fell 1.2 percent for the month and 7.9 percent year-over-year as declining state and local spending evidently outweighed the boost from federal stimulus funds. The three biggest public categories declined over both spans: highway and street construction was down 2.9 percent and 7.0 percent, respectively; educational construction sank 0.1 percent and 19 percent; and transportation facilities fell 3.8 percent and 1.4 percent. Three categories that have recently received considerable stimulus funding rose: sewage and waste disposal, 2.5 percent and 11 percent; water supply, 2.2 percent and 0.7 percent; and public housing, 0.3 percent and 18 percent. Private residential spending dropped 2.6 percent for the third straight monthly decline since the homebuyer tax credit expired at the end of April, although the July total was 5.5 percent higher than in July 2009. Of Census’s three private residential categories, new single-family construction fell 2.5 percent for the month but

rose 14 percent from a year ago; new multi-family fell 1.5 percent and 52 percent; and improvements to existing units fell 2.9 percent in July but increased 12 percent from a year earlier. Prices for some construction inputs are rising. Copper futures closed at $3.49, up more than 25 percent from last spring. “Although domestic demand for many commodities remained weak in July and August, prices for some commodities, such as scrap steel, rebounded in August due to increased foreign demand,” Jim Sobeck, president of New South Construction Supply (jim.sobeck@newsouthsupply.com), wrote on August 25. “There are still shortages of some types of resins used in the manufacture of construction materials, which has resulted in resin suppliers continuing to raise prices in August and announcing increases for September. [D]omestic rebar mills, led by Nucor, announced on August 11th that they will increase prices for their September rollings by $25.00/ton. Although rebar prices have firmed up recently, demand remains weak and prices to contractors remain lower now than what they will be in September. Concrete reinforcing wire mesh prices remained stable in August after falling modestly in mid-July by approximately 3 percent. Wire rod prices are anticipated to rise in September, due [to] the increase in scrap steel, but as demand remains weak, wire mesh manufacturers are expected to hold the line on prices for September shipments. Polyethylene C A film manufacturers increased prices by 10 percent in August, as resin prices increased by a

whopping $.15/pound since mid-July. Resin manufacturers have announced another price increase for September orders of $.05 to $.06/pound as certain types of polyethylene resins remain in short supply. As resin prices will increase in September, most polyethylene C A film manufacturers have announced they will increase prices by another 5 percent by mid September. Although wire rod prices are expected to increase in September, masonry reinforcing manufacturers have adequate inventories of rod for their anticipated demand in September and do not feel that the industry will support an increase at this time. Several manufacturers of caulking and joint sealants have either already increased prices or have announced increases for September, due to increased costs for raw materials over the past several months.” In contrast, liquid asphalt prices have continued to fall. The Illinois Department of Transportation posted its monthly bituminous index: $443.89 per ton, down $12.11 (2.7 percent) from August and the sixth straight drop, totaling $73.71 (14 percent), from the peak in March. New orders for U.S. manufactured goods (excluding semiconductor manufacturing) inched up 0.1 percent in July following a decrease of 0.6 percent in June, Census reported. Orders for construction materials and supplies fell 2.5 percent in July and 0.5 percent in June. Orders for construction machinery jumped 16 percent in July after slumping 18 percent in June. © Kenneth D. Simonson is chief economist of the Associated General Contractors of America.

Spazzarini Construction: Going Strong After 90 Years of Work Italian Immigrant Antonio Spazzarini Started Company With One Truck, One Dream, in 1921 By Jay Adams

CEG CORRESPONDENT

They answered when Avon called; but they have nothing to do with cosmetics. They built ING and the Evergreen Walk; they’ve talked the Evergreen Talk for nearly 90 years. Spazzarini Construction Company was founded in 1921– as most earth-moving companies were after World War I– by a hard-working immigrant seeking a better life for his family. Founder Antonio Spazzarini migrated to the United States in 1907 when President Teddy Roosevelt served as a national go-getting role model. Some 14 years later, as the 20s roared, his small trucking company began to roll. More than 35 years later, after hard work and easier dreams in 1956, he was still supervising his better life, until his sudden death led his grandson, Anthony Spazzarini, to continue the company. Anthony soon developed his trucking business into a small contracting business, serving various public and private clients. Another Generation Follows Times changed and Spazzarini generations with it. The company has always been a family venture, to this very day. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Anthony initiated his two sons, Edward and Mark, into his business. Word spread about how good they were. Meeting this changing world, the company redeveloped itself toward total commercial building construction. Services ranged from site work and foundations to structural steel and roofing. Amazingly, however, Anthony’s wife Judith solely staffed the office for the first 30 years. In 1986, Spazzarini developed and built a 52-house subdivision in Enfield, Conn. In

(L-R): Anthony, Mark, Edward and Brian Spazzarini keep the 90-year old family business running.

the early 1990s, company ownership began to transition to Mark and Edward, who leaned more toward heavy iron and highway construction, moving away from commercial building work. The Spazzarini legacy has continued to grow in the competent hands of Edward and Mark. Their keen insight and business acumen have enabled them to build Spazzarini Construction Company Inc. into a multi-million dollar contracting firm that enjoys the status as one of the premier road and site contractors in Connecticut.

Spazzarini Construction fields an extensive fleet of trucks.

Serving Clients in Conn. and Mass. Today, Spazzarini Construction Inc. is one of Connecticut’s leading providers of general contracting road construction and site preparation services. Located in Enfield, Conn., the company serves clients throughout all of north-central Connecticut and western Massachusetts. This includes, but is not limited to, the communities of Enfield, East Windsor, Somers, Suffield, Windsor, Broad Brook, Tolland, Vernon, Rockville, Hartford and

Bloomfield, in Connecticut, and Longmeadow, East Longmeadow, Agawam, Chicopee, Springfield, West Springfield and Westfield, in Massachusetts. The company’s main office is located at 38 Post Office Road, Enfield. In June 2009, Spazzarini Construction moved into a new facility, which combined both the office and the maintenance shop of the company, allowing for better flow of information. “The new office is significantly larger than our previous office allowing for a large conference room with cutting edge presentation equipment,” said Edward Spazzarini, president of Spazzarini Construction. “The maintenance shop in the new facility has been expanded to include more floor space to aid in the repair of equipment and the better organization of supplies, as well as an indoor wash bay to better maintain the equipment in the winter months. Our new facility also is environmentally friendly, featuring automatic lights and a heating system that runs on recycled oil.” Spazzarini also has significant gravel pit operations on Sadds Mill Road in Ellington, Conn. Company services include heavy see SPAZZARINI page 54

highway, site construction, underground utility installation, snowplowing, grading and paving and septic system installation. Major Projects Abound How could Antonio Spazzarini have dreamt back in 1921 that his little truck would give way to a legacy and a family firm that would help build a great many major projects? The first of these was Evergreen Walk, a 1.2 million sq. ft. lifestyle center in South Windsor created by developer Poag & McEwen Lifestyle Centers. On this project, Spazzarini Construction worked as site contractor under Alabama’s Hoar Construction LLC (general contractor) Some 56 acres were cleared to make room for more than 50 upscale retailers and restaurateurs, now occupying the buildings erected for this project. Next came the Windsor Regional Office Headquarters of ING Life Insurance & Annuity Company, a 47-acre project in Windsor. Spazzarini paired with the Boston office of Trammell Crow Company in this project, which was completed in late 2007. Spazzarini then worked as site contractor under Regional Construction Corporation (general contractor) for the construction of the North Haven, Conn., Pavilion, an 18-acre shopping center devel-

oped for National Realty & Development Corp (NRDC). Upon completion, the project became home to 20 stores, including Target, Sports Authority and Michael’s, all acting as anchor stores for the complex. The company was then awarded the general contract for improvements on Route 190 at the intersections of Middle Road and Palomba Road and South Road and Elm Street in Enfield. This contract was awarded and overseen by the Connecticut Department of Transportation. Spazzarini is now working on the reconstruction of Avon Mountain Road, a challenging, three-year, $13 million project in Avon. Good Reputation David Ferraro, project engineer at ConnDOT has worked with Spazzarini frequently. “I currently have three [out of five] active Projects here in District 4 [in Connecticut] with Spazzarini,” said Ferraro. “In general, they are a pleasure to work with. True gentlemen who really take pride in their work, which is rare these days. They are a great family-owned company that is run like the construction companies of years gone by with hardworking employees who sincerely care about the quality of work they produce.” Two of the projects that

Spazzarini has helped ConnDOT with are the rebuilding of Rte. 44, a $13.5 million job in Avon, Conn., and improvements to Rte. 10/202, a $1.7 million project in Simsbury, Conn. “These projects [like many nowadays] have had some challenges and difficult issues to contend with and the Spazzarinis are always cooperative and one step ahead of the game working on solutions and solving problems to keep things on schedule,” added Ferraro. “I have worked with both Edward and Mark Spazzarini as they each manage different projects.” Perhaps the company’s most unusual project was on TV.

“We volunteered our equipment and employees and some material from our gravel pit for ‘Extreme Makeover – Home Edition,’ which took place in Suffield, Connecticut in 2009, on the rainiest June week on record,” recalled Edward Spazzarini. 90 Years of Growth and Change Spazzarini Construction has worked with area companies such as Regional Construction, Purchase, N.Y.; Trammell Crow, Boston; Turner Construction, Milford, Conn.; John Moriarty & Associates, Unionville, Conn.; and Hoar Construction, Birmingham, Ala.

The company has grown from five to 50, from immediate family to extended family and beyond. In 25 years, its gross revenue also has increased tenfold. “In 1985, our revenue was $1,585,000, compared with today, which is ten times that,” added Spazzarini. “We started out with Judith Spazzarini being the sole office employee and employing about eight workers. Today, we employ over 50, with the following office employees: Two owners, a controller, two estimators and two clerical staff.” Longevity certainly is the key to consistency. But what makes this nine-decade company stand out? Is it service? Is it certain guarantees of timely contract work or workmanship? Is it the people? “We take a hands-on approach, with extensive owner involvement on each and every project,” said the involved owner himself. “We also have a staff consisting of many long-term, dedicated employees, many of whom have been with us either over or approaching 20 years. This allows us to maintain an extensive knowledge base and experienced workers.” The company president cited many loyal employees who have helped make his business so successful, including: Tod Rafferty, 24 years; Scott Richardson, 22 years; Gary Clark, 21 years; Ryan see SPAZZARINI page 56

Such an experienced staff knows that it has to adjust over the decades, especially in challenging economic times like these. “Due to the hands-on approach by the owners and our long-term employees, we are able to work efficiently. We also have a well-respected reputation which helps greatly in these times,” added Spazzarini. “We also keep our overhead low in both good times and bad, which helps us to take advantage of some incredible bargains in equipment purchases in these down times.” And what are they proudest of? No, not the big buildings or the new roads or the mall they helped to build, although these stand as beacons of pride. It all goes back to family; family which started Spazzarini; family which sustains and improves it. “We are proudest of raising a good family with good values,” said Spazzarini. “Beyond that, we hope for continued success in the industry and transitioning to the next generation of Spazzarinis.” For more information call 860/7455683 or visit www.spazzarini.com.

Housecleaning Tip: Don’t I’m a pretty good housekeeper. Ask anybody. No, wait: Don’t ask my wife. She and I disagree on certain housekeeping issues, such as whether it’s ok for a house to contain dirt. Also smells. If NASA scientists really want to know about life on Mars, instead of sending up robots that keep finding rocks, they need to send my wife and have her take a whiff of the Martian atmosphere. If there’s a single one-celled organism anywhere on the planet, she’ll smell it. And if the other astronauts don’t stop her, she’ll kill it with Lysol. Which is why her approach to leftovers baffles me. I am opposed to leftovers. I believe the only food that should be kept around is takeout Chinese, which contains a power preservative called “kung pao” that enables it to remain edible for several football seasons. All other leftover foods should be thrown away immediately, for the same reason you should not go to your 40th high-school reunion. You go expecting to see people whom you vaguely remember as being attractive, and even though you know they’ve aged some — heck, even YOU have aged some — you figure, hey, it’s not as if you’re OLD yet. You’re middle-aged. Like Harrison Ford. So you go to the reunion, and suddenly you find yourself in a room full of unrecognizable fossils, lurching around the dance floor to the sounds of Herman’s Hermits, and you realize to your horror that YOU ARE ONE OF THEM. You get the same kind of unpleasant shock with leftovers. Time and again, in my house, when we’re cleaning up after dinner, there will be, say, a small clump of uneaten string beans, and I’ll have it poised over the garbage, and my wife will lunge for it like a person rescuing a baby from a wood chipper, saying: “Those will be good for leftovers.” She’ll carefully seal the string beans in a plastic container and put them in the refrigerator, as if she truly believes that sometime in the near future an actual human in our household will say: “Dang. I could really chow down on some old string beans.” Now fast-forward about a month, when my wife, passing the refrigerator, detects an odor molecule. So she takes out the plastic container and discovers that EWWW the string beans have been replaced by alien space worms with inch-long blue fur. Which,

of course, she hurls into the garbage, which, as you may recall, is exactly where I tried to throw them a month earlier. This is what happens to, I would estimate, 100 percent of our non-Chinese-takeout “leftovers.” Speaking of refrigerator odors, here’s a: PRACTICAL HOMEMAKER TIP — Keep an open box of baking soda in your refrigerator. That way, when people come to visit, you can say: “Would you care for some cold baking soda?” Then they will leave. But I digress. My point — and I know this because I’m using powerful point-detection software — is that people have differing views about what constitutes good housekeeping. This is why I’m so interested in an article that appeared recently in The New York Times. The article states that your kitchen — yes, YOUR kitchen — is basically a festering swarm of potentially deadly bacteria. The most interesting part of the article concerns a discovery by a University of Arizona microbiology professor named Chuck Gerba, who is an expert on household germs. I am familiar with Gerba, because some years ago I interviewed him on bathroom cleanliness, and he told me that the only sure way to kill all the bacteria on a toilet is — I am not making this up — to put laboratory alcohol on the bowl and set it on fire. LEGAL ADVISORY — Gerba is a trained bathroom scientist. As a layperson, you must NEVER EVER set your toilet on fire, EVER. Also be advised that it looks much cooler with the lights out. So anyway, Gerba has found that the cleanest-looking kitchens were often the dirtiest. “Because ‘clean’people wipe up so much, they often end up spreading bacteria all over the place. The cleanest kitchens,” he said, “were in the homes of bachelors, who never wiped up and just put their dirty dishes in the sink.” That’s right: You so-called “good housekeepers” are in fact smearing bacteria around, while we so-called “slobs” are, by courageous inaction, making the world’s kitchens safer for everybody. There’s no need to thank us. All we ask is a little respect. Also, while you’re sniffing those leftovers, please grab us a beer. © 2010 Tribune Media Services Inc.

Five Companies Collaborate to Tackle Rough Terrain Problems Locke Crane Services, a full service crane rental company in New England, has recently added a National model 8100D - 23 ton (21 t) hydraulic crane mounted to a Caterpillar 574 Forwarder to its fleet. The unique combination of crane and forwarder is well suited for the rough terrain that Locke travels, especially when working on power transmission lines. Installing the National model 8100D onto the Cat Forwarder was a collaborative effort between Locke Crane Services, Shawmut Equipment, National Crane, Milton CAT and CUE Engineering. Each company contributed to the project and the result is a machine designed and built to service job sites that are difficult to access with traditional machinery. The National model 8100D mounted on the Cat 574 Forwarder offers a 100-ft. (30.5 m) main boom and a two-person man basket. Additionally the crane was designed with 48 in. (122 cm) outrigger jacks capable of leveling the crane in adverse conditions. The Cat 574 carrier is capable of traveling in any terrain and leaves minimal impact on the environment. The Cat 574 Forwarder eliminates the need for extensive matting typically required to access these areas. This saves Locke's customers valuable time and money when this special crane is used. “We’re thinking this unit here, that’s actually a piece of forestry equipment except with a crane built on it, will be able to go anywhere we want it to go…through the mud up the mountains. Since the National crane is built on a Cat forThere’s no place this machine can’t go,” said owner Kenny Locke. warder and not the typical boom truck it can climb Joe Vergoni (L) of Shawmut Equipment shakes hands with “The guys really like this piece of equipment because it can do over rocks and up mountains to get to the job site.

Well, my fellow Rochesterians, this is long overdue, but I’m finally getting around to writing this letter. And let’s hope something good comes out of it. To: Dave St. Peter, President, Minnesota Twins From: A die-hard Rochester Red Wings fan Dear St. Peter: First, I hope you don’t mind me not using Mr. I did so because your name has special meaning and we here in Rochester really need a saint’s help. We just hope you are one more than in name only. That is, we need someone to open the pearly gates of Triple-A baseball heaven because the hell where we’ve spent this season was a nightmare. And since our team has been your team’s farm club for eight seasons now, we’re counting on you. The Red Wings’ numbers for 2010 are disgusting, including ending the season with a 16-1 loss to the Buffalo Bisons. As I’m sure you know, the Wings cleaned out their lockers with a 49-95 record, the first time they’ve had that many games in the “L” column since 1920, when they went 45-106. All the other numbers are equally staggering, including: • A 26-45 record at Frontier Field, which is a major league baseball park with 10,084 seats and where the Red Wings have played their home games for the past 13 seasons. • This team had a 6-71 record when trailing after six innings, a 3-75 record when trailing after seven innings and a 0-81 record when trailing after eight innings. • The team went 1-14 in their last 15 games and is only the third International League team to lose 90 or more games since 1979. • The Red Wings used 48 different players this season and 17 of them were called up to your Twins at one time or another. • And on a positive note, this train wreck of a team still drew 462,004 fans this season, surpassing last year’s total attendance by 58. Had enough, St. Peter? Still, there is no doubt that Rochester is one of the greatest baseball cities on the planet. This franchise has been around since people went to the games on horses, or in a buggy pulled by a horse — that is, since 1885. FYI: That’s 55 years before your Twins even existed. Oh, and our team became the Red Wings in 1929. Many great players and managers who are in the Baseball Hall of Fame — too many to mention here — wore Red Wings uniforms at one time or another.

The bottom line, St. Peter, is that people in this area love to go to Red Wings games. Thanks to COO Naomi Silver and GM Dan Mason and the others in the Wings front office, it’s as much of a social event as a sports event. Watching baseball is far less intense than getting all wired up for a football game. You can have a cool one and a hot dog or burger, chat with the people around it and basically, just relax. The only thing missing this was … well, St. Peter, you know the answer to that one: talented players — or at least players who could produce. We had a young roster that had too little experience and maybe too many nerves. And no, don’t blame manager Tom Nieto. He didn’t throw gopher balls to opposing batters or hit into double plays with the bases loaded in the late innings. And, of course, there is nothing Silver or Mason can do about it. Like Nieto, they have to dance with who brung ‘em. The ball’s in the Twins’ court, St. Peter, and the solution is simple: Sign and send to Rochester some real Triple-A baseball players — make that a whole bunch of Triple-A baseball players who are borderline big leaguers. I have been told that your Twins have a game plan to revive not only the Red Wings but also your Double-A New Britain Rock Cats (44-98 record, worst in the Eastern League by 22 games). Pardon the cliché, St. Peter, but the proof is in the pudding. We were all excited when the Red Wings and Baltimore Orioles got a divorce and our team signed up with the Twins. Now, though, St. Peter, as far as we fans are concerned, this honeymoon is over. Yeah, our teams’ relationship has a two-year extension, but it won’t take many more disastrous seasons — even any — to kill this deal, too. You and your front office pals have a few more than 200 days to make the Red Wings a bona fide International League team before the 2011 season starts. So do it, St. Peter, do it — please! Sincerely, Red Wings fan with fingers crossed (Rick Woodson is a regular columnist for the “Rochester Business Journal” in Rochester, N.Y., and is the author of “Words of Woodson”, a collection of sports columns, available at www.authorhouse.com and www.thegolftee.net.

N.J.’s H&H Mack Sales Goes Green With Solar Energy H&H Mack Sales of Rockaway, N.J., one of the largest single location Mack Trucks dealership in the northeast, announced the installation of its new solar electric system at its headquarters. The system will provide 80 percent of the building’s electrical needs and will have environmental benefits equivalent to the absorption of CO2 from planting 3.2 acres of trees, or cutting back annual green house emissions from roughly taking seven cars off of the road Bill Horne, president of H&H Mack Sales explained, “The decision to invest in solar technology was based on the many environmental benefits, and also the high return on invested capital. I carefully evaluated the significant revenue from the sale of the SRECs, the elimination of up to 80 percent of my electric bill, federal and state rebates and the reduction of tax liability due to deprecation. Ultimately, the investment decision proved more attractive to me than many other business and investment options available in today’s economy.” Horne also noted that he feels fortune that his business has been among the H&H Mack Sales’ new solar electric system will provide 80 percent of the building’s electrical needs. fastest growing truck dealerships in the North East during the past several years. “We have worked hard to Jersey’s Department of Clean Energy’s About H&H Mack Sales earn our place in this indusRebate Program and the Federal Solar Founded in 1993, H & H Mack boasts the highest custry with exceptional people, Grant Program which provided 41 percent tomer service rating of any Mack Dealer in New Jersey. exceptional service, and of the cost of installation.

Brake Plan Helps Truck Operators Better Prepare for Winter

Highway agencies spray magnesium chloride and calcium chloride on pavement in advance of a coming storm or they mix the chemicals with salt and sand to make snow removal easier. These corrosive chemicals can penetrate truck components like brakes.

Each winter, local, state, and provincial highway agencies use liquid de-icers in their battle against snow and ice in an effort to save money and to reduce the impact of sand on air and groundwater quality. The highway agencies spray magnesium chloride and calcium chloride on pavement in advance of a coming storm or they mix the chemicals with salt and sand. “Since these chemicals don’t readily evaporate and are highly soluble in water, chemical de-icers stick around and prevent ice from forming on the roadways, making snow removal easier,” said Jeff Sass, general marketing manager of Paccar Parts. “But those same qualities make it easier for the corrosive chemicals to penetrate truck components like brakes.” “Roadleveler offers new and remanufactured brake components that can last longer and perform more reliably under these corrosive conditions,” Sass said. “In order to eliminate uneven wear allowing for greater stopping power and longer life, each Roadleveler brake shoe is coined,” Sass added.

Coining is a form of precision stamping where each Roadleveler brake shoe is stamped like a minted coin in a 1,000-ton hydraulic press. This ensures that the radius and depth of the shoe table is manufactured to OEM tolerances.” Coining also eliminates the gaps between the shoe table and the friction material to prevent water and road chemical de-icers from seeping behind the friction material, Sass said. “A special anti-corrosion hydraplex enamel coating that’s first applied through full immersion sets the Roadleveler product apart,” Sass said. This full immersion doesn’t leave surfaces exposed to possible environmental contaminants like chemical de-icers. Then the enamel coating is baked on at 200 degrees for several cycles to ensure proper adhesion, rather than spraying on a waterbased coating that’s air dried and prone to rust jacking. “Rust jacking, or the build up of rust behind the friction material on brake shoes,

can cause brake linings to lift and crack, a leading cause of out-of-service violations during brake inspections,” Sass added. According to the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA), one out of every three trucks inspected during last year’s annual brake inspection was sidelined due to defects with brakes or with their components or adjustments. “Truck operators can be better prepared for the upcoming winter by having Roadleveler brake components installed,” Sass said.

About Roadleveler Roadleveler is a licensed Paccar brand of precision fit replacement parts including brake shoes and hardware kits, ride-control and steering components, including shock absorbers. Roadleveler products are sold exclusively in North America. All Roadleveler brake products meet or exceed Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 121. Paccar Parts distributes Roadleveler brake products exclusively through Kenworth and Peterbilt dealers in the United States and Canada. For more information, visit www.RoadLevelertruckparts.com.
