CEG CORRESPONDENT

The 1930s-era Franklin Theatre on Main Street in downtown Franklin, Tenn. is getting a facelift. The owner of the theatre, the Heritage Foundation of Franklin and Williamson County, is a nonprofit organization that has been actively planning and fundraising in anticipation of the restoration and expansion ever since it acquired the theatre in 2007. Batten & Shaw Inc., is Photo courtesy of Holly Hines Photography the general contractor on the project, and

The reconstruction is intended to mirror the original theatre’s aesthetic from the 1930s to the 1940s, yet this presents a host of challenges for the contractor.

Gas Pipe Explosion Inspires Spending and Debate on Nationwide Issue Its Effect on

By Garance Burke and Jason Dearen ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITERS

SAN BRUNO, Calif. (AP) The tragic explosion of a gas pipeline in a San Francisco suburb has shed light on a problem usually kept underground: Communities have expanded over pipes built decades earlier when no one lived there.

Utilities have been under pressure for years to better inspect and replace aging gas pipes many of them laid years before sprawling communities were erected around them — that now are at risk of leaking or erupting.

But the effort has fallen short. Critics said the regulatory system is ripe for problems because the government largely leaves it up to the companies to do inspections, and utilities are reluc-

tant to spend the money necessary to properly fix and replace decrepit pipelines.

“If this was the FAA and air travel we were talking about, I wouldn't get on a plane,” said Rick Kessler, a former congressional staffer specializing in pipeline safety issues who now works for the Pipeline Safety Trust, an advocacy group based in Bellingham, Wash.

Investigators are still trying to figure out how the pipeline in San Bruno ruptured and ignited a gigantic fireball that torched one home after another in the neighborhood, killing at least four people. Pacific Gas & Electric Co., the pipeline's owner, said Sept. 13 it has set aside up to $100 million to help residents recover.

Experts say the California disaster epitomizes the risks that communities face with old gas lines. The pipe was more than 50 years see EXPLOSION page 40

Construction

By Giles Lambertson CEG CORRESPONDENT

An enduring story of the current recession has been the nation’s construction swoon, which has industry leaders and government officials alike in a daze about how to correct a grievous loss of construction jobs. With the industry’s jobless rate hovering around 17 percent and no instrument in sight to lower it, it’s little wonder that two-thirds of surveyed industry leaders believe the dilemma will continue at least another year. see SPENDING page 58

Funny Car World Champ Pays Visit to Linder Machinery

T

wo-time NHRA Funny Car world champion Tony Pedregon’s Chevrolet Funny Car, primarily sponsored by Komatsu America Corp., was in Charlotte for the O’Reilly Auto Parts NHRA Nationals, Sept. 16 through 19. The team stopped by Linder’s Charlotte office so their customers and friends could meet Pedregon and get an up-close look at the car.

“Komatsu America is excited to be sponsoring Tony Pedregon’s car,” said Erik Wilde, vice president, product marketing, Komatsu America Corp. “Tony’s reputation as a world champion aligns well with Komatsu’s worldwide reputation for producing outstanding equipment.”

Pedregon and his Snap-On Tools Chevrolet was in the class of the Funny Car field all weekend long and he was able to use his No. 1 qualifying position to his advantage and secured the win over Jack Beckman in his Valvoline/Mail Terminal Services Dodge Charger Funny Car. In the finals Pedregon posted a winning run of 4.171 seconds at 299.13 mph to a trailing 4.212 seconds at 301.81 of Beckman. This was the first win by Pedregon since his victory at the last race of the season in Pomona in 2008.

“I’ve had some great cars in my career when I drove for guys like Larry Minor and Joe Gibbs, but I don’t think I’ve been in a better car than I had this weekend,” said an emotional Pedregon.

“I can’t say enough about the team. Me, and crew chief, Danny DeGennaro, who’s a young guy in his 30s, were both kind of on the sidelines this offseason. We worked real hard to get to this point. It took us awhile to get going, and there were times when I thought, ‘What the heck are we doing this for?’ but we stayed at it.”

(L-R): Bill Cross, Linder sales representative for the Charlotte area, talks racing with Brian McManus and Larry Hoopaugh, both of Hoopaugh Grading in Charlotte.

Hoopaugh was especially excited to be at the event because he used to be a professional NASCAR driver.

Steve Davis (L) of Davis Grading Inc. in Shelby, N.C., and his father-in-law, Dwight Hendrick, talk about the utility work they are currently doing and the prospects of a few other upcoming projects.

The people at Linder’s Charlotte office pause for a photo op around the car.

(L-R): Bill Cross of Linder speaks with Dale Williams and Jule Rogers, both of Rogers Grading in Rock Hill, S.C., about the new Komatsu D51PX dozer. Rogers already owns 19 pieces of Komatsu Equipment and is thinking about adding this dozer to his fleet. Roger’s first Komatsu purchase was a used D68 dozer. He ran the machine for five years and sold it for what he paid for it five years earlier.

(L-R): Justin Fesperman, Justin Upchurch and John Basso, all of Vulcan Materials Mid East Division in Charlotte, talk excavators with Linder’s Conrad Graham.

Coming off of a good day’s work (L-R) are Kenny Powell, and Tommy, Kurt and Chad Abernathy, all of Hal Abernathy Contracting in Charlotte. They came to see the latest offerings from Komatsu and the Komatsu Funny Car.

(L-R): Two-time NHRA Funny Car world champion Tony Pedregon tells a few stories to Michael Frings of Affordable Concrete Services in Concord, N.C.; Mickey Pedulla of Pedulla Excavating in Mooresville, N.C.; and Chris Wilkes and Bill Cross, both of Linder.

Small Business Act Signed; Depreciation Bonus Extended On Sept. 27, President Barack Obama signed the Small Business Lending Fund Act (H.R. 5297) into law, creating a $30 billion fund to help small businesses expand and hire. The bill also includes eight separate tax breaks for small businesses and a boost for Small Business Administration loan programs.

The legislation reinstates the 50 percent depreciation bonus for 2010 and also creates a lending fund to provide capital for small businesses and increases Sec. 179 expensing levels to $500,000 (and the phase-out threshold amount to $2 million) for 2010 and 2011.

Obama said the incentives will help small businesses create jobs in the short term.

The credit provisions of the bill include an extension of the fee waiver for SBA 504 loans, a Small Business Administration financing program, first enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Recovery Act and a permanent increase of the maximum loan amounts to a range of $5 to $5.5 million.

Larger projects are now eligible for 504 loans and borrowers who already have loans with the SBA can now return for additional funding. Also included is a new temporary program that helps small businesses refinance existed debt.

Increase of Section 179 To motivate companies to spend money

on equipment, Section 179 of the tax code allows businesses to write off capital expenditures immediately. Due to the Recovery Act, businesses could write off up to $250,000 worth of equipment through 2009.

This bill extends the benefit through 2011 and the maximum increases to $500,000.

Bonus Depreciation Extension Businesses also can opt to recover the cost of capital expenditures by writing off a portion of the cost of the purchase over a number of years, following a depreciation schedule.

Businesses can temporarily front-load that deduction by writing off 50 percent of capital expenditures made in 2008 and 2009.

This bill extends that first-year depreciation for qualifying property that is put in service in 2010.

Help for Start-Ups Currently, entrepreneurs can deduct up to $5,000 in start-up expenses. That amount is reduced by the amount that the start-up's expenses exceed $50,000. The bill would increase the deduction to $10,000 for 2010, and the deduction would be reduced by the amount that an entrepreneur exceeds $60,000.

The new fund would be available to community banks to encourage lending to small businesses.

Urban Job Site Poses Theatre Restoration Challenges THEATRE from page 1

Hastings Architecture Associates LLC is handling the design; both companies are based in Nashville, Tenn.

Groundbreaking for the restoration was held April 7, 2010, and the projected opening date is Spring 2011. The project is comprised of two buildings — the original Franklin Theatre built in 1937 and another building next door, a pool hall, which dates back to the 1920s.

“They still look like two buildings from the exterior,” explained Mary Pearce, executive director of Heritage Foundation, “but they are being constructed as one multi-use performing center from the interior.”

The smaller pool hall building is being used for support services, such as restrooms, offices and concessions. A second-story addition has been added to the rear of both buildings where a “green room,” backstage area, catering kitchen and tech area will be located.

“We started with 7,500 square feet in both the buildings and now have more than 11,000 square feet,” Pearce noted.

The theatre will be multi-use entertainment spot. It will be unique in that it will host live performances and events in addition to movies. There will be a new elevator installed and concession areas will be available on both floors. Furthermore, there will be modern sound, light and projection systems in the theatre. Also, a unique neon marquee, displayed on the façade from 1937 to the early 1970s, will be replaced.

There will be upwards of 300 seats incorporated into the design, which is inspired by the theatre’s Depression-era Art Deco motif.

According to Sean Farrell, senior project manager of Batten & Shaw, since the Franklin Theatre has a relatively small layout and less square footage compared to other similar theatres, “there has been careful and arduous planning to ensure the theatre allows for as many seating spots as possible, roughly 303 currently.”

So far, the new addition’s roof structure and building structure are complete. A new balcony structural system has been constructed inside the theatre, new flooring for

The 1946 western Abiliene Town was featured on the marquee at the Franklin Theatre.

One instance where Main Street had to be shut down occurred on Sept. 20 when the roof top units (RTUs) were installed using a rental crane from Elliott The Crane People of Nashville, Tenn.

the seating area has been installed, and underground lighting needs have been installed and are ready for finishes. The new roof for the entire project is finished and the building is “water tight.” Also completed, all underground storm and sanitary sewer connections that impact parking in the rear of the building.

Work that is in progress consists of the new elevator shaft wall system, which has been constructed, and is ready for the new elevator cab to be installed. The marquee sign and the new LED sign have been designed and purchased; both signs are currently under fabrication. Part of the historic preservation, the reconstruction of 417 side windows, is almost finished.

Drywall is currently being hung, and work on the exterior front and rear facades is almost complete.

“The biggest accomplishment to date,” said Farrell, “the project remains on schedule and currently at or just below original budget.”

The theatre’s urban, compact location is ideal for business but has proven tricky for its renovation.

“It has been challenging to work in an urban environment,” said Pearce. “Every time we do something, we are affecting at least 12 businesses.”

The theatre is situated along side retail shops and restaurants, so the contractor tries to schedule potentially disruptive work in the early morning hours.

Businesses that used to be on Main Street have left an impact on the site as well. For example, a car dealership that disappeared from Main Street in the early 1980s left behind oily soil from questionable oil disposal practices.

“We removed about 60,000 tons of damaged soil,” Pearce said.

“Waste management had to put it into special containers for shipping.”

Likewise, the contractor has had to adapt to the site layout as needed.

Farrell stated, “The building is connected to other old building lines, and we are very limited in space and lay down area thus requiring special equipment to bring material.”

so materials are delivered “by demand,” said Farrell. In some instances, Main Street has to be shut down while the Franklin City Police monitor traffic during deliveries.

Furthermore, the limited size of the site has made the installation of the underground utilities difficult; the contractor has completed this work with backhoes and trenching equipment.

One instance where Main Street had to be shut down occurred on Sept. 20 when the roof top units (RTUs) were installed using a rental crane from Elliott The Crane People of Nashville, Tenn.

The process began at 5 a.m. when barricades and caution tape were set in place for the work area along with an additional closure of a large parking area.

Over the next several hours, safety measures were put in place, the crane was set up, and the RTU lift was completed.

Workers were assembled to assist and redirect any people arriving in downtown during the lift period.

Batten & Shaw must focus on safety in such a dense environment. Farrell explained that it was “not an option to have any pedestrian or vehicle traffic anywhere in this vicinity during this lift.”

One of the design goals of the renovation is to have a finished product that is a LEEDcertified (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) structure, which will result in a high-performance green building.

The Franklin Theatre will be the town’s first LEED-certified restoration.

Another way that the reconstruction will be “green” is by recycling and reusing whenever possible and trying to send nothing to the landfill.

For example, when demolishing the interior, old seats and fixtures were found new homes and old supplies were donated to charitable organizations.

Another aspect of the interior demolition was the challenge the original building’s design presented to the contractor. Due to the auditorium floor being concrete and sitting at an angle, Batten & Shaw rented from RSC Equipment Rental of Franklin a 40-ft (12 m) telescopic knuckle boom (oscillating), which

was essential to the initial demolition.

Currently, there is a 40-ft. wide by 17-ft. tall (12 by 5 m) scaffold stage inside the building that is crucial for work occurring near the ceiling.

The reconstruction is intended to mirror the original theatre’s aesthetic from the 1930s to the 1940s, yet this presents a host of challenges for the contractor. Namely, the building must meet current code obligations while adhering to the design of openness for seating and comfort and retaining exterior finishes.

“Since the building was mainly wood and masonry construction at the original building time,” Farrell elaborated, “our need to maintain these features, while ensuring current code obligations are met, requires careful planning and installation of structural components.”

Much of the work that has to meet code obligations will not even be visible to patrons returning to the theatre when it opens. Sound control features that encapsulate the sounds of a building’s functions, like HVAC systems, said Farrell, “require specific and unique approaches to interior wall construction and sound proofing.”

Special care also is taken when installing piping, duct, electrical conduits and structural elements not only to pass code requirements, but also to ensure the safety of the guests, performers, and staff in the event of an emergency.

To assist in construction, Batten & Shaw is overseeing approximately 17 subcontractors. Heritage Foundation also has supplied about four contractors and vendors of its choosing.

“We will be creating 35 to 40 construction jobs a day,” Pearce said.

With the help of donors and plenty of fundraising, the Heritage Foundation was able to come up with $6 million to purchase and renovate the theatre. An estimated $2 million more also will need to be raised for the project.

AGC: Construction Employment Expands in 56 Metropolitan Areas Construction employment expanded in 56 out of 337 metropolitan areas between August 2009 and August 2010 according to a new analysis of federal employment data released Sept. 27 by the Associated General Contractors of America. More cities added construction jobs during the past year than at any point since September 2008, indicating that the worst of the industry’s job losses may be over, association officials noted.

“With construction employment on the mend in an increasing number of areas, it appears that the worst is finally over,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “The fact remains, however, that this industry has a long way to go before we see construction employment back to pre-recession levels.”

Simonson noted that Kansas City, Kan. added more construction jobs (2,500 jobs, 13 percent) than any other metro area while Hanford-Corcoran, Calif., added the highest percentage (22 percent, 200 jobs).

Other areas adding jobs included Pittsburgh, Pa. (2,000 jobs, 4 percent); Calvert-Charles-Prince Georges counties, Md. (1,200 jobs, 3 percent); Chattanooga, Tenn. (700 jobs, 8 percent); and Eau Claire, Wis. (600 jobs, 19 percent).

Simonson added that 245 metro areas lost construction jobs while construction employment was unchanged in another 36.

The Chicago-Joliet-Naperville area lost more construction jobs (22,600 jobs, 16 percent) than any other metro area, even after a construction strike ended in July. Napa, Calif.

(900 jobs, 30 percent) lost the highest percentage. Other areas experiencing large declines in construction employment included Las Vegas (13,500 jobs, 22 percent); Houston (11,200 jobs, 6 percent); Seattle-Bellevue-Everett (9,100 jobs, 12 percent); and Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, Calif. (8,500 jobs, 13 percent).

Association officials said that even as the employment outlook improves in a growing number of metropolitan areas, construction unemployment remains nearly double the national average. They added that Congress is now a year late in passing major highway and transit investment legislation as well as other key infrastructure bills. Federal inaction, combined with ongoing weak private, state and local demand will continue to undermine chances of a broader construction industry recovery, officials noted.

“The fact that the best news the industry has had in years is that we’re not losing jobs as fast as we were is a reflection of how hard hit construction has been during the downturn,” said Stephen Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “Too many construction workers remain unemployed while Congress lets long-delayed infrastructure legislation idle.”

SSA Gulf Terminals, a division of SSA Marine, based in Seattle, Wash., runs marine terminals, inland ports and container yards in approximately 138 ports around the globe in seven countries.

Certainly, the machines had the weight loading capability, but we had to go through the scenario of what size buckets would be needed. We settled on the optional 10yard bucket based on the weight of the product [44 lbs. per cubic foot], what kind of volume we could fit in the bucket, and how many cycles the machine could reasonably make.

“We rely on three Komatsu WA380 machines for material loading and moving. We knew that our system needed to match up with the Port Authority’s systems and that the vessels needed to be loaded at a rate of about 1,000 tons per hour. We went through the engineering of the entire system,

honestly, we’ve hit the projections on a regular basis. Each Komatsu needs to be able to perform 53 to 54 cycles an hour, which is pretty quick. But we’ve seen them doing it. There’s often times when the warehouse is really full or over capacity and we can’t access the middle hopper, so were having to load with only two machines on the outer two hoppers and we see our operators doing as much as 65 to 68 cycles per hour per machine see SSA page 60

Bid Controversy…

Army Corps of Engineers to Begin New Bay St. Louis Seawall Soon BAY ST. LOUIS, Miss. (AP) The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is going ahead with plans to build a new seawall in Bay St. Louis after a federal agency rejected a contractor’s protest over the handling of bids for the project.

Roger Caplinger, president of Bay St. Louis-based Innovative Builders Inc., protested the bid award last January. He said his company entered a low bid of $16.25 million with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to build the 6,500-ft. (1,981m) long seawall.

The Corps awarded the contract to Hemphill-Key LLC, a Florence, Miss.-based company that bid about $17.1 million.

The Corps said the Government Accountability Office upheld its decision.

Caplinger told the Sea Coast Echo that the GAO’s decision in favor of Hemphill was “just business as usual for the federal government.”

Caplinger said his company was well qualified for the seawall job, but the government took the position that his past construction projects were on too small a scale. The result, he said, was a loss of local employment.

The seawall was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, leaving downtown Bay St. Louis more exposed to storms.

“It will be nice to have that extra area there as a barrier between the water and the street,” said business owner Cindy Fisher.

Corps spokesman Pat Robbins told WLOX-TV that a modern seawall will be built.

“The road has been redone so it will be a whole different world down there.

I believe we’re putting a little small beach out in front of it to help protect the seawall as well.

“It’s been redesigned based on occurrences that happened during Katrina. Obviously we’re using more modern things than were done years and years ago,” Robbins said.

“I think this is long overdue,” Bay St. Louis Mayor Les Fillingame said.

“We’ve been basically waiting on pins and needles for that project to get off the ground.”

Once built, the wall will follow the grade of Beach Boulevard and stretch from U.S. Highway 90 to the south along the beach.

Construction time is estimated at 18 months.

Louisiana’s GO Zone Bond Program Nearing Its Expiration Date in Dec.

By Melinda Deslatte

ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) The expiration date is nearing for Louisiana’s use of a tax-free recovery bond program set up by Congress after hurricanes Katrina and Rita, with hundreds of millions of dollars in Louisiana’s bond capacity still not used.

Louisiana received $7.8 billion in tax-free borrowing capacity from Congress through the federal Gulf Opportunity Zone Act to dole out to private business developments to help spur growth in 31 hurricane-impacted parishes after the storms struck in 2005.

About $59 million remains unallocated. Another $840 million has been allocated but the bonds have yet to be sold. Private developers borrowing money have until Dec. 31 to tap into the bond program.

GO Zone projects are given a special borrowing status so businesses can borrow money more cheaply. The State Bond Commission determines

who gets the GO Zone bond designation.

State Treasurer John Kennedy asked developers who have outstanding GO Zone bond allocations they haven’t used to explain to the Bond Commission in October whether they will use the borrowing capacity or whether the state should give it to someone else to ensure it’s not lost.

Other projects are waiting in the wings. Whit Kling, director of the Bond Commission, said the commission already has applications for $300 million in projects for its October meeting.

Among the projects that haven’t gone to the bond market yet are the expansion of a tank facility in St. James Parish, a biodiesel plant in St. Charles Parish and a hospital project in East Baton Rouge Parish.

Though several months ago Kennedy said he was worried the state would leave GO Zone bonds on the table, he said Sept. 16 that he’s confident the state will use nearly all its GO Zone capacity by the end of the year.

“You’ll never hit it on the exact

penny, but I really think we’re going to use well over 95 percent because our demand has picked up,” Kennedy said.

One of the latest projects to get approval for GO Zone bonds was for steelmaker Nucor. The Bond Commission agreed Sept. 16 to let Nucor use $600 million in recovery bonds for construction costs for a massive iron and steel plant planned in St. James Parish.

Meanwhile, a similar program offering $384 million in tax-free borrowing capacity to private Louisiana businesses damaged by Hurricane Ike, which hit Louisiana two years ago, is tapped out. A final $65 million allocation was approved Sept. 16 for Westlake Chemical Corp., for its plant in Calcasieu Parish.

For the Ike program, private businesses in 16 parishes were eligible for the replacement of losses or facility repairs, but not for new construction or expansion. Public utilities in those parishes also were eligible for repair and reconstruction projects. The taxexempt bond status is available through December 2012.

New Holland C190 Compact Track Loader Gets the JobDone The New Holland C190 compact track loader combines the reach and lift capacity of the Super Boom lift arm design along with the flotation, traction, and stability of tracks.

The C190 is available with two track options – a 15.7-in. (40 cm) track for enhanced flotation and additional traction and a 17.7-in. (45 cm) track for maximum flotation on sensitive turf.

The C190 compact track loader lowers operating costs with fast, easy servicing. All major service points can be easily reached, even with the boom down. Rear access door provides quick and easy access to check engine oil, hydraulic oil, radiator coolant and fuel fill. Routine air filter maintenance is simple with an easy to reach, side-out element. If major repairs are ever necessary, the entire boom and cab assembly lifts up and tilts forward for unobstructed engine and transmission access, according to the manufacturer.

The Super Boom vertical lift linkage also provides increased dump height and reach.

“The vertical lift Super Boom design provides more forward reach than radial lift designs, which allows the C190 to load material into the center of a truck,” the man-

The C190 is available with two track options – a 15.7-in. (40 cm) track for enhanced flotation and additional traction and a 17.7-in. (45 cm) track for maximum flotation on sensitive turf.

ufacturer said. “This allows the operator to more effectively fill high-sided trucks and hoppers.”

An optional hydraulic mount plate allows the operator to swap out more than 50

attachments without leaving the cab. Every New Holland compact track loader attachment is interchangeable with skid steer loaders and compact wheel loaders.

The C190 features a turbocharged engine

rated at 90 gross hp (67 kW), a bucket breakout force of 7,670 lbs. (3,480 kg) and an operating weight of 9,820 lbs. (4,454 kg) For more information, visit www.newholland.com.

JCB North America Launches New 515-40 Compact Telescopic Handler Small but mighty, JCB’s 515-40 is just 5 ft. 11 in. (1.8 m) tall, 5 ft. 2 in. (1.6 m) wide and 9 ft. 6 in. (2.9 m) long and weighs 7,672 lbs. (3,480 kg). To achieve the lowest possible overall height, JCB developed the 515-40 with an off-set single-spine main frame. As a result, the machine boasts a fullsize cab with both easy accessibility and plenty of space for the operator, according to the manufacturer.

According to Chris Giorgianni, general manager of product marketing at JCB North America’s headquarters in Savannah, Ga., the extremely compact 515-40 can be effectively used at sites that could previously only be accessed by skid steer loaders.

“Our new 515-40 is small enough to provide the construction, agricultural and industrial markets with the many benefits offered by our telescopic handler range,” Giorgianni said. “This machine brings the maneuverability and power of the telescopic handler to nurseries, small farms, landscape contractors, building supply yards, warehouses and many other applications that can benefit from its 8 feet 6 inches of forward reach and 13 feet 2 inches of loading height.”

With a turning radius of just 9 ft. (2.7 m) and very compact dimensions, the JCB 515-40 can maneuver in even the smallest work environments. Equipped with 4-wheel steering, 4-wheel drive, a hydrostatic transmission and enhanced ground clearance, the machine can easily traverse the challenging outdoor conditions often found at a landscaping job site or on the farm.

Its 4-wheel drive system and hydrostatic transmission are designed to get the most power to each wheel. This is achieved by mounting the four drive motors in the axle hub, ensuring the power is exactly where the operator needs it.

The drive train design ensures that the 515-40 is at home on the yard or running off-road in wet conditions, according to the manufacturer.

Powered by a 50 hp (37 kW) engine, the 515-40 can carry

a payload of 3,300 lbs. (1,500 kg) up to a maximum lift height of 13 ft. 2 in. (4 m). This combination of features allows the JCB 515-40 to maximize storage space inside small buildings, enables it to load a truck from one side and even grants it access to the inside of a standard container to load it from one end.

“The 515-40 comes standard with a universal skid steer quick attach, opening it up to a vast range of attachments,” Giorgianni added. “This extra functionality combined with ease of operation makes the machine an ideal multi-tasker for any number of applications.”

The 515-40 boasts a full-size canopy or an optional cab.

When outfitted with a cab, the 515-40 also offers optional air conditioning and a deluxe suspension seat. Low noise level and both ROPS and FOPS protection provide additional health and safety benefits. Access to the cab is made easy by a low-level step and flat cab floor, ensuring easy entry and exit for the driver.

For more information, call 912/447-2000 or visit www.jcbna.com.

Komatsu Designs Its PC35MR-3 With Comfort in Mind Komatsu America Corp.’s (KAC) PC35MR-3 compact hydraulic excavator is designed to bring increased production and added operator comfort to contractors in a variety of construction, utility, landscaping and other applications.

The PC35MR-3 is equipped with the latest Komtrax technology, which sends machine operating information to a secure Web site utilizing wireless technology. Data such as operating hours, machine location and fuel levels are relayed to the web application for analysis. The Komtrax fleet monitoring system increases machine availability, reduces the risk of machine theft and provides a wealth of other information to drive business efficiency.

Special features of the PC35MR-3 include: • Operator Comfort For operator comfort, the PC35MR-3 allows easy entry and egress due to the wide entrance and well placed hand holds. A fully adjustable suspension seat with retractable seat belt lessens fatigue, and pilot proportional joystick controls with wrist rests permit continuous, comfortable operation.

• Productivity The PC35MR-3 is a member of the minimum swing radius (MR) family of compact excavators. This enables the operator to focus on the work in front and worry less about rear swing impacts in confined areas.

The PC35MR-3 accomplishes these tasks while maintaining high lift capacity and stability.

The PC35MR-3 has an operating weight of 7,909 lbs. (3,587 kg), and features a maximum dig depth of

11 ft. 4 in. (3.4 m). The standard thumb mounting bracket and auxiliary hydraulics simplify hydraulic thumb installation, enhancing the machine’s capability and versatility. The optional Power Angle (PA) Blade allows the operator to angle the blade 25 degrees to the right or left, increasing the excavator’s productivity; this is especially useful when back-

filling trenches.

• Value The PC35MR-3 gets its power from a Komatsu engine with a net power of 28.9 hp (21.5 kW). The direct injection engine meets EPA emissions requirements and is fuel efficient without sacrificing power or efficiency. The X-track frame deters the build-up dirt and debris, saving the operator valuable time when cleaning the machine. The single, large diameter swing pin ensures long life and durability of the boom swing mechanism.

•Service and Maintenance To simplify maintenance, Komatsu equipped the PC35MR-3 with numerous features. The operator compartment tilts up for providing access to the hydraulic components and the back of the engine (starter/alternator). The wide opening engine cover and side covers provide outstanding access to daily checkpoints. In addition, the radiator and oil cooler are side by side making them easy to inspect and clean, and it ensures that only the cleanest freshest air reaches each component. Extended greasing and service intervals make it easier to schedule maintenance.

Toro Introduces Dingo TX 427 Compact Utility Loader The Toro Company’s latest additions to its Dingo compact utility loader family are the narrow and wide track TX 427 models. Both TX 427 loaders feature a 27-hp (20 kW) Kohler engine that delivers added torque for increased pulling and digging force. These models also come standard with a heavyduty two-stage air cleaner that offers enhanced dust and dirt filtration, even when the engine is working in the harshest environments.

TX 427 compact utility loaders are the successors to Toro’s TX 420 and TX 425 models.

“We’ve taken the Dingo’s proven tracked, walk-behind design and unmatched hydraulic power to the next level with the TX 427 models,” said Greg Lawrence, marketing product manager of the Toro Dingo compact utility loader family. “We’ve simplified our lineup by offering one model in either narrow or wide track design, beefed it up with a more powerful engine, and increased the power-to-weight ratio for improved job site efficiency.”

Featuring four independent hydraulic pumps, TX 427 compact utility loaders deliver 16.9 gal. (64 L) per minute (gpm) of flow to each track, 11.4 gpm (43 Lpm) to the auxiliary hydraulics, and 6 gpm (22.7 Lpm)

to the loader arm. The auxiliary hydraulics on the TX 427 models pump 19 hp (14 kW) flow to the attachment for increased productivity in ground-engaging applications.

Both TX 427 units are compatible with Toro’s multitude of compact utility loader attachments — making them well-suited to dig, haul, plant or build almost anything.

“Everything our customers love about our Dingo loaders remains the same,” said Lawrence, “including their versatility. From augering, earthmoving, tilling, and trenching

to leveling, lifting, hauling and demolishing – the applications are endless.”

Weighing just 2,006 lbs. (910 kg) with a standard bucket, the TX 427 narrow track loader has a rated operating capacity of 535 lbs. (242 kg), 35 percent of tip capacity. Its overall length of 92 in. (233 cm) including bucket and width of 33.7 in. (85 cm) allow it to work in the tightest places and easily pass through a standard 36-in. (91 cm) gate. Also, the 5.9 in. (15 cm) wide tracks on the TX 427 narrow track model distribute a mere 5.1

psi of ground pressure, so operators can get the traction they need without tearing up turf during operation, according to the manufacturer.

The TX 427 wide track model weighs 2,186 lbs. (991 kg) with a standard bucket, and it offers the same rated operating capacity as the narrow track model at 535 lbs. (35 percent of tip capacity). With an overall length of 92 in. including bucket, this model’s width is increased to 41 in. (104 cm) to accommodate the wide track set up but is still compact enough to fit through a 42 in.

(106 cm) gate. With 3.5 psi ground pressure, this unit offers a light footprint and improved flotation for better traction in sandy or wet ground conditions.

“The gas-powered TX 427 offers a high power-to-weight ratio,” said Lawrence.

“Competitive models that offer the same horsepower are much heavier machines, which means it takes operators more energy to move the units around the job site and can cause more damage to the ground. Our TX 427 compact loaders offer powerful performance that allows customers to be more productive — getting more done in less time.”

Population Increases Risk Factors EXPLOSION from page 1

old— right around the life expectancy for steel pipes. It was part of a transmission line that in one section had an “unacceptably high” risk of failure. And it was in a densely populated area.

The blast was the latest warning sign in a series of deadly infrastructure failures in recent years, including a bridge collapse in Minneapolis and a steam pipe explosion that tore open a Manhattan street in 2007. The steam pipe that ruptured was more than 80 years old.

The section of pipeline that ruptured was built in 1956, back when the neighborhood contained only a handful of homes. It is a scenario that National Transportation Safety Board vice chairman Christopher Hart has seen play out throughout the nation, as suburbs have expanded.

“That’s an issue we’re going to have to look on a bigger scale — situations in which pipes of some age were put in before the dense population arrived and now the dense population is right over the pipe,” he said.

Thousands of pipelines nationwide fit the same bill, and they frequently experience mishaps. Federal officials have recorded 2,840 significant gas pipeline accidents since 1990, more than a third causing deaths and significant injuries.

Hart said the tragedy in San Bruno could push other states to begin tougher inspections of their lines.

“It would surprise me if other states didn’t see this and learn from it and be proactive with it,” Hart said.

Congress passed a law in 2002 that required utilities for the first time to inspect pipelines that run through heavily populated areas. In the first five years, more than 3,000 problems were identified — a figure Weimer said underscores the precarious pipeline system.

Even when inspections are done and problems found, Kessler said, there is no requirement for companies to say if or what kind of repairs were made. And Weimer added industry lobbyists have since pushed to relax that provision of the law so inspections could occur once a decade or once every 15 years.

Other critics complain that the pipeline plans are drafted in secret with little opportunity for the public to speak out about the process.

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration is the federal regulatory arm that enforces rules for the safe operation of the nation’s pipeline system, and has direct authority over interstate pipelines. Most state public utility agencies have adopted the federal rules and carry out inspections and enforcement of pipelines running inside state boundaries.

But the system often relies on the pipeline operators like PG&E to survey their own gas lines and to decide which pipelines are high risk.

The American Gas Association disputes the notion that it cuts any corners and said the industry is subjected to stringent state and federal regulations.

“Safety is unequivocally the No. 1 priority for the natural gas transmission and distribution industry and always will be,” spokesman Chris Hogan said. “The industry spends billions each year to ensure the safety and reliability of the natural gas infrastructure.”

California regulators say current rules are written in a way that relies on industry to report problems and set timetables for repair.

“We’re set up to provide an incentive and a deterrent and to make sure they follow the rules, but we generally avoid telling them how to run their system,” said Julie Halligan,

deputy director of consumer protection and safety at the California Public Utilities Commission. “They can’t endlessly defer things and get away with it, because we’ll be looking after the fact to see what they’ve done.”

The challenge of ensuring pipeline safety is compounded by the sheer enormity of the nation’s natural gas network.

The federal pipeline agency said the United States has more than 2 million mi. of pipelines — enough to circle the earth about 100 times.

The agency has only about 100 federal inspectors nationwide to ensure compliance, meaning there is no guarantee violators will be caught.

“When you look at two-and-a-half million miles of pipeline with 100 inspectors, it’s not reassuring,” Weimer said. “To a grand degree the industry inspects and polices themselves.”

Potential safety threats have grown as the pipeline network has expanded and age takes its toll on existing infrastructure. More than 60 percent of the nation’s gas transmission lines are 40 years old or older.

Most of them are made of steel, with older varieties prone to corrosion. The more problematic pipes are made of castiron. A few places in Pennsylvania still had wooden gas pipes as of last year, according to officials there.

Pipelines in heavily populated locations like San Bruno fall into a category the industry refers to as “high consequence areas.”

Those areas contain about 7 percent of the 300,000 mi. of gas transmission lines in the country, or roughly 21,000 mi. of pipeline. The category has nothing to do with the safety of pipelines, and was created to put the greatest emphasis on the most populous regions.

Industry watchdogs have criticized utilities for not being willing to spend the money necessary to avoid explosions like the one in California. The cost to replace lengthy stretches of pipelines can exceed $30 million.

“They [PG&E] will prioritize and put off work to maintain their level of earnings,” said Bill Marcus, a California attorney whose firm consults nationally with consumer protection agencies and nonprofits on gas rate cases. “To some extent that’s not bad, but it is concerning when those decisions endanger public health or the environment.”

PG&E said it has spent more than $100 million to improve its gas system in recent years, and routinely surveys its 5,724 mi. of transmission and 42,142 mi. of distribution lines for leaks. The utility speeded up surveys of its distribution lines in 2008 and expects to have completed checks in December, it said.

PG&E President Chris Johns said the pipe that ruptured was inspected twice in the past year — once for corrosion and once for leaks — and the checks turned up no problems.

A section of pipe connected to the line that exploded was built in 1948, and flagged as a problem by PG&E in a memo.

PG&E submitted paperwork to regulators that said the section was within “the top 100 highest risk line sections” in the utility’s service territory, the document shows.

The fact that it’s in an urbanized area that didn’t exist when the pipe was built is emblematic of a bigger problem nationwide, experts say.

“People have been waiting for a while for this type of disaster to happen because of expanded construction near pipeline right of ways without adequate prevention,” said Paul Blackburn, a public interest lawyer in Vermillion, S.D.

Performance and reliability Dynapac’s asphalt rollers and pavers Dynapac’s CC424HF, CC524HF and CC624HF tandem asphalt rollers are a new generation of articulated tandem rollers powered by a Cummins QSB 4.5 water-cooled turbo-diesel engine with after cooler. The rated power is 125 hp at 2200 rpm for the CC424HF, and 152hp for the CC524HF and for the CC624HF. The new models have operating masses ranging from 11.6 tons to 13.9 tons, the weight split evenly between the front and rear drum modules.

Dynapac’s new F1000 series wheeled or tracked asphalt pavers have been designed especially for the North American market. They have the lowest deck height in the industry and feature 3/4-inch formed hopper wings that deliver asphalt to a high-capacity slat conveyor. A high-performance outboard auger drive and the conveyor design eliminates center line segregation.

Doosan’s DL420 Wheel Loader Sports Tier III Engine With a bucket capacity of 5.2 cu. yd. (3.9 cu m), the Doosan DL420 articulated wheel loader is designed to take on a wide range of material handling tasks from loading and transporting granular material (such as sand and gravel) to industrial, mining and quarrying applications. With the addition of the DL420, the Doosan range of articulated wheel loaders includes eight models with bucket capacities from 1.9 to 6.5 cu. yd.

(1.4 to 5 cu m).

The 49,163-lb. (22,300 kg) DL420 is powered by a 659-cu. in. (10,799 cu cm), 6 cylinder turbocharged Cummins QSM11 electronically controlled engine with high pressure unit injector system and a modern combustion system. Emissions are well below Tier III regulatory limits, according to the manufacturer.

The engine develops 280 hp (208 kW) at 2,000 rpm and offers maximum torque of 1,070 ft. lb. at 1,400 rpm for optimal traction and breakout force in loading-transport-handling applications.

Depending on the application, the operator can choose between two working modes (standard or economy) for either maximum productivity or minimum fuel consumption.

A robust Z-bar lifting system provides a standard bucket breakout force of 47,210 lbs. (21,414 kg), among the highest in its size class. This results in higher stripping force and greater productivity when working in hard materials.

The DL420 offers four forward speed ranges with maximum speeds of 4, 7.7, 11.4, and 23.6 mph (6.4, 12.4, 18.3 and 38 kmh), and three reverse speed ranges with maximum speeds of 4, 7.7 and 11.4 mph.

Due to its powerful Cummins engine, the DL420 accelerates to 90 percent of maximum speed in 2.3 seconds. The larger engine also is designed to provide increased durability and a longer service life, according to the manufacturer.

With a 5.2-cu. yd. (4 cu m) bucket, the DL420 has a static tipping load of 39,432 lbs. (17,886 kg) at maximum reach with a straight frame and a height at bucket pivot point of 14 ft. 3 in. (4.3 m). Equipped with a pin-on bucket with bolt-on cutting edge and tipped forward at 45 degrees, the dump height is 10 ft. 2 in. (3 m) and the dump reach is 4 ft. 2 in. (1.2 m).

The turning radius at bucket edge is 22 ft.

11 in. (7 m) at the maximum steering angle of 40 degrees.

Like all Doosan wheel loaders, the DL420 features a full powershift transmission with manual and automatic modes.

Standard limited slip differentials on both the front and rear axles ensure positive traction in wet or soft conditions.

Hydraulically controlled, multi-plate wet disc brakes and dual brake circuits provide positive braking power. A springapplied/hydraulically released (SAHR) parking brake is mounted on the transmission shaft to prevent the loader from rolling after engine shut down. An optional electric-powered emergency steering system backs up the hydraulic power steering system in case of a malfunction and a safety device prevents starting the engine when not in neutral.

The DL420 provides operators with improved visibility and lower cabin sound levels. A powerful heating and air conditioning system, a roomier cabin, ample storage space and a comfortable seat also help to reduce operator fatigue. Anti-pitch control provides smoother travel with a loaded bucket. Available as an option is a single lever control for travel functions and front-mounted attachments.

A new integrated monitoring system displays information about the loader’s engine and transmission, including service intervals for each filter and the engine oil. The monitoring system also provides service fault codes to the operator without the need to hook up a PC. Codes can then be reported to the dealer’s service technician, saving diagnostic time and reducing expense. In addition, the integrated monitoring system allows the transmission to be tuned by the operator without the assistance of a mechanic.

The DL420 also features a vehicle control unit that optimizes loader performance by controlling engine, transmission and hydraulic system variables.

To reduce fuel consumption and lower noise levels, the DL420 loader features a hydraulically driven, variable speed engine fan with an electronic thermostat that constantly monitors engine coolant and transmission oil temperatures. The fan direction can be reversed from the cabin to quickly clean out the radiator in dusty environments. Also, the hydraulic fan swings out to easily clean the cooler group.

All routine maintenance on the DL420 can be performed from ground level.

Centralized hydraulic check ports and easily accessible drain valves for engine oil and coolant simplify routine maintenance.

Remote greasing lubrication ports allow front pins to be lubed from the outside of the machine. The transmission oil filler pipe is located near the articulation joint for easy access and sight gauges for hydraulic oil and coolant levels allow easy daily checks while reducing the risk of contaminants entering the systems.

Marketing Pioneer Layton to Retire From Wacker Neuson After 28 years marketing to the construction and concrete industries, Jim Layton will retire from Wacker Neuson Corporation at the end of 2010. During his tenure as marketing communications manager, Layton expanded the department from a one-man operation supporting a dozen products to leading a team of communications professionals with a multi-million dollar budget supporting nearly 400 products.

He also led Western Hemisphere communications efforts during the company’s transition from a privately-held manufacturer to the global, publically traded Wacker Neuson.

Over his career, Jim has led many marketing communications campaigns, which have driven equipment sales growth.

He started the Wackerman Club, today known as the Wacker Neuson Rewards Program, which has registered more than 20,000 contractors, who receive promotional gift rewards for equipment purchases. A unique promotional campaign to support the introduction of a new, single-direction plate compactor helped to achieve product sales goals and gave away nearly 1,000 pairs of running shoes. On an annual basis, his marketing team generates more than $1 million dollars worth of editorial value in trade magazines and electronic media, helping to broaden market awareness for Wacker Neuson equipment.

His most recent marketing innovation, the Wacker Neuson Trowel Challenge, exhibited all the characteristics of an integrated marketing program. It combined efforts from sales, manufacturing, sales channel partners, trade magazine publicity and electronic social media to generate awareness for Wacker Neuson ride-on trowels. The program was directly responsible for nearly $100,000 in related equipment sales at dealer events with indirect sales tallying in the hundredsof-thousands of dollars.

Jim Layton will retire from Wacker Neuson Corporation at the end of 2010.

“Looking back, we’ve seen many changes in how we market our product to the customer, and it has been a privilege to be a part of the company’s communications success,” he commented.

His mentoring efforts have reached beyond the inner confines of Wacker Neuson to include industry and community programs. Layton has served on the American Rental Association’s board and trade show committees for the ARA, Associated Equipment Distributors and World of Concrete. He also has served on the board of directors for the Menomonee Falls Chamber of Commerce and YMCA. Layton leaves Wacker Neuson to spend more time with family and friends and to pursue other interests within the industry.

“The time is right for me to depart Wacker Neuson and close this chapter of my career,” he said. “I’m looking forward to starting a new chapter within the industry.”

Spending and Its Effect on Construction Employment SPENDING from page 1

Yet from the crucible of this recession, some painful lessons about job creation may have been learned. There is a fresh conversation about the comparative value of government versus public sector jobs and perhaps a new understanding of “job creation.”

Spending and Employment There have been no shortage of efforts to spur construction — and construction hiring — but they have been manifestly unsuccessful. The most prominent was the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The socalled stimulus bill was a $787 billion spending initiative, with approximately $100 billion of that earmarked for construction.

The Obama administration and supporters in Congress promoted the bill as a relative quick fix for the industry because emphasis was placed on “shovel-ready jobs.” This referred to projects that already were cleared by the various pre-construction agencies and lacked only funding. What wasn’t funded early was expected to continue to keep contractors cranking up their equipment for years to come.

It hasn’t worked as well as hoped. In response to a recent Associated General Contractors survey, only 28 percent of contractors and industry suppliers and distributors said the stimulus was “very or somewhat effective.” Nearly half — 47 percent — said it “neither helped nor hurt” and 11 percent said it had a negative impact. The rest didn’t have an opinion.

This lukewarm response to the stimulus within the industry reflects a generally negative view of the overall stimulus among all Americans. This is significant because the perception of middling success or failure of the stimulus makes it less likely that leadership will spend billions more on another one.

Consequently, when President Obama this late summer proposed a $50 billion “bold new vision” — notably not called a “stimulus” — for transportation infrastructure including highways, railways and airports, the reaction was muted. Industry associations generally praised the initiative but added that what really was needed was passage of a multi-year successor to the socalled SAFETEA-LU highway bill that expired a year ago and has been extended periodically to keep funds flowing.

One prominent dissenter to the president’s proposal was Florida Republican Rep. John Mica, the ranking minority member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. He is the probable committee chairman should the House majority switch to Republican after November’s elections.

“I will not support another tax-and-spend proposal while billions of transportation and infrastructure funds sit idle,” Mica said Sept.

7.

“While proposing to spend more on infrastructure in another stimulus effort may sound like the administration is doing something about jobs, in fact only 32 percent of the infrastructure funding approved 18 months ago in the first stimulus has been spent,” he said. “Projects continue to be bogged down by bureaucracy and red tape.”

Aless harsh view is that, while many projects are not in progress, most are on the verge of starting. John Horsley of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, which is “highly supportive” of the administration’s new plan, estimated that 90 percent of stimulusfunded transportation projects are under contract.

Employment Bang for Bucks What has become apparent in all this conjoining of spending and jobs is that there does not seem to be a strict correlation between money spent and jobs created.

Many assertions are made about the linkage, but they are all pretty shaky, except in the abstract. Economists argue that, theoretically, a pool of money of a certain size will create a certain number of jobs. In reality, no such hard-and-fast cause-and-effect relationship seems to exist.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has estimated that each $1 million expended on road construction produces 63 jobs — 13 crewmembers at the job site, 13 vendors and 37 in related service industry positions.

Interpolating that number, it follows that $1 billion would create 63,000 jobs, more or less. A $50 billion infrastructure spend, therefore, would create more than 3 million jobs, which would be a healthy rebound indeed.

Top-end projections aside, the numbers plugged in at the lower end have to be skeptically received. There seems to be no agreement on a formula, which suggests that the root numbers aren’t well founded. The numbers, incidentally, all reflect the consensus that spending on construction results in hiring of work crews, hiring at supporting companies and hiring elsewhere in the economy as a consequence of the expenditure of money by the first two categories of employees. The three categories of benefits are commonly referred to as direct, indirect and induced.

Using that premise, a U.S. Department of Transportation study earlier this decade concluded that 47,000 jobs are created by the expenditure of $1 billion. That is 16,000 fewer jobs than the previously mentioned Department of Commerce’s formula would produce but is the number that some presidential candidates relied on in formulating position papers during the 2008 campaign.

However, there are other numbers. An Association of Equipment Manufacturers policy statement declares that 35,000 jobs are created from each $1 billion. Yet posted elsewhere on the AEM Web site is a jobs statement by AEM President Dennis Slater; he cited a DOT study in declaring that 30,000 jobs result from a $1 billion expenditure.

Two decades ago, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said a billion dollars would create 24,000 jobs for a year. Last year, Alex Carrick, a Canadian economist, concluded that $1 billion created 20,000 jobs. Dipping slightly lower is the Heritage Foundation think tank; in 2009, it cited another U.S. DOT report in which researchers concluded that a mere 19,500 jobs would arise from expenditure of $1 billion.

Ronald Utt of the Heritage Foundation said the widely varying numbers are all misleading because they are based on a false premise. Utt argued in a background paper at the time the stimulus package was being debated that unless the $1 billion “appears out of nowhere as if it were manna from heaven,” the net creation of jobs is closer to zero. That’s because each $1 billion in funding is taken from somewhere else in the economy, thus robbing that area of its funding with a resulting slowdown in work and hiring. When the $1 billion is “new money,” that is, borrowed money, the offsetting loss of jobs elsewhere is merely deferred until payback time.

In sum, precisely how much employment results from massive spending packages is not at all clear. Furthermore, it should be noted that none of the formulations stray into the locution of “jobs saved or created,” an Obama administration construct that is almost impossible to prove or disprove.

Private Sector Versus Public Jobs Not all jobs are created equal. For example, some make-work construction positions are funded just to get money into the economy, as was the case with the Works Progress Administration of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt era. How far government should tiptoe down that path is the question, for at the far end of the path nothing of real value is created besides a paycheck. Example: Paying someone to dig a hole and then fill it again is in itself not of much lasting value.

So the debate among Keynesian economists and their conservative counterparts is partly about how much value should be expected in return for a government wage.

The wider dispute is about government jobs versus private sector employment.

President Obama said in 2009 that 3 million new jobs would be created through the stimulus bill, “more than 80 percent of them in the private sector.” Senate Minority Leader

Mitch McConnell was not impressed. He reportedly responded to the president with a question: “Well, do we really want to create 20 percent of the jobs in the public sector?

That would be 600,000 new government jobs.”

John Palatiello is president of the Business Coalition for Fair Competition, an organization of businesses, associations and taxpayer groups. The coalition argues that billions of dollars — $27 billion, to be exact — would be saved were designated government employee functions opened to competitive bidding. Palatiello said the best government policy always “recognizes that real economic growth and job creation is in the private sector, and emphasizes that government should not compete with its citizens but should rely on the private sector to the maximum extent possible.”

The Obama administration has not been open to this idea. Rather, it has modified guidelines so that more kinds of work can be reserved for government agencies. It probably is no coincidence that, since the inauguration of the current administration, private sector employment has decreased by 3.3 million and government employment has risen by some 34,000, according to the business coalition.

Palatiello’s group is leading the charge to reduce the federal payroll through outsourcing of thousands of jobs. Specifically, it has called for the administration to declare a moratorium on government insourcing.

In August, Palatiello talked to Daniel Gordon, the administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy. Gordon told him the federal government only insources under three circumstances: 1) When an activity is so inherently governmental in nature that it should not have been contracted out in the first place; 2) When activity is so critical in nature that the agency has no in-house capability to adequately award, manage and oversee the contract; or 3) When a detailed cost analysis has been performed and the agency can unequivocally quantify the savings that would be achieved.

Gordon told Palatiello the agency would welcome any examples of jobs insourced in conflict with the guidelines. The first week of September, Palatiello obliged, providing Gordon with 17 examples. In all, the coalition believes that some 850,000 federal employees are doing work that might better be done by private sector employees.

The Construction Industry Round Table is a founding member of the coalition and fully supportive of the call to reduce insourcing.

tors could do the job as well and more costeffectively than government, including environmental clean-up, military base maintenance, civil works — and especially maintenance, repair and construction of roads, waterways and buildings.

“Moreover,” Casso said, “any assertion that insourcing saves money has been debunked, by no less that Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who on Aug. 9 admitted, ‘We weren’t seeing the savings we had hoped from insourcing.’”

This ongoing dispute with the federal government is separate from long-standing comSSA Gulf Terminals uses Komatsu WA380 wheel loaders to manage their shipments plaints of the construction industry about of wood pellets. state jobs. The industry complains that state departments of transportation around the country have employees doing work that the private sector can do as well, including engineering tasks.

Wheel Loaders Reach Up to 68 Cycles Per Hour at Port SSA from page 22

and moving a total material volume of approximately 850 metric tons per hour.”

All three of the machines are now two years old, and these are the first Komatsus put into service at this location.

“We probably have a total of 70 pieces of rolling stock at the Panama City operation.

These Komatsus rolled right into the fleet very well and we put them through our regular preventative maintenance system with regular oil changes and those types of things.

We’ve really had no major issues to speak of with these machines. We run them in a very dusty environment with potential fire hazards, so in order to reduce that, and to keep the machines clean, about every hour and half we rotate them out of the warehouse and have them blown out. I think that’s been pretty successful. We blow out the radiators and filters, and we only had a simple issue with a machine air conditioner and we moved some filters around to compensate for where the air was being pulled in and the problem was solved. We’ve been very satisfied with these machines,” Downey said.

Shipping and handling requires SSA Gulf Terminals to keep the pellets completely dry at all times.

“The material runs about 4 percent moisture, which is a very dry pellet, and requires us to put a priority on keeping moisture out.

The enclosed rail cars are unloaded at a covered pit. The conveyors, both above and below ground are covered. The pellets are

covered while they are going into the warehouse. Once in the warehouse, they are unloaded and stacked. When we go to load the vessel [ship], we use our 380 Komatsus with a 10 yard bucket to take the pellets from flat storage to feed three large hoppers, to the tune of about 1,000 metric tons an hour.

That’s about 350 metric tons per hopper or so,” Downey explained.

Downey is just as satisfied with his Tractor and Equipment Company salesman, Chuck Tibbets.

“We talked with some other contractors in the area that we knew were running Komatsus, as well as Berg Pipe, which is one of our vendors here at the port who run some big Komatsus, and everyone said they were very happy with Tractor & Equipment and Komatsu machines. Chuck does a good job.

When we’ve had just a couple small issues, his staff has been right out and has gotten us up and going. When we work a ship, it’s important to be running at 100 percent. That vessel can cost anywhere from $35,000 to $50,000 a day to sit and wait for loading. So if we have delays or breakdowns, it doesn’t go over well with our customer. We need immediate service when we request it and get up and running. He’s [Chuck Tibbets] been very responsive the couple times we’ve needed him. We have no time for down time,” Downey said.

Jobs Variables The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 19 percent growth in construction jobs over the next eight years, considerably more than most other major industries. Growth is expected pretty much across the board, including in the heavy and civil construction areas where construction and repair of highways and bridges clearly are needed. The Bureau also predicts a spurt of power transmission line construction.

These two areas of building — highways and power lines — illustrate a variable in construction spending. Some kinds of building work obviously are more labor intensive than other kinds.

Myrtle Beach, S.C., backers of a proposed Interstate 73 roadway point to a research economist’s estimate of jobs creation.

Donald R. Schunk of Coastal Carolina University predicted last year that the proposed new roadway would have some 4,700 construction workers on the job on any given day in the Myrtle Beach region. If figuratively spread across the approximately 80 mi. of the South Carolina segment of I-73, that’s 55 to 60 people working per mile of new roadway.

Whereas large-scale power transmission lines require just 14 construction workers per mile of transmission, according to power industry researchers. However, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory estimates that 20,000 mi. of new lines are needed across the United States, particularly if the push for wind turbine-generated electricity in the West requires new lines running to the East Coast. With 14 people working each of those 20,000 mi., a sizeable number of con-

struction workers would be packing lunches and heading off to the job.

Yet lobbyists don’t typically distinguish among different orders of construction labor.

They lobby for an entire transportation bill, for example, as opposed to asking for targeted capital investment in bridges or runways or railways. While this probably is a good political approach, it does not address priorities among worthy projects, nor distinguish between needs and wants.

The American Society of Civil Engineers has laid a foundation for breaking the overall problem of infrastructure construction into smaller parts, issuing a national grade card that evaluates the condition of individual pieces of infrastructure.

Using the 2009 card, one can conclude that bridges, inland waterways, drinking water / wastewater systems, levees and roads are most in need of attention, each receiving a D- from the ASCE. While some other areas fared almost as poorly, they are judged to be in slightly better condition. The result of the grading process is that construction priorities are established.

The Round Table’s Casso was asked if lobbying for individual pieces of capital might be more effective in this economic climate. The answer is yes and no.

“In truth, the Round Table does not make any precise distinction between and among infrastructure project types,” he responded.

“Rather, it focuses on the need for the federal government to target funds and attention to meaningful ‘signature’ projects or programs that can far exceed the mere investment of funds to impact a greater expanse of American society, its economy, and even its security.

“These types of ‘major impact projects’ can be beneficial short-term investments and have a lasting high return. As such, they should be the focus of at least a portion of future expenditures managed by the federal government.”

Casso’s organization is working on a “white paper” outlining the request to focus on “meaningful transportation projects.” It also will call for reform of grant programs so that obvious areas of highway congestion can be targeted and consistently funded until real correction is achieved. This approach is the opposite of spreading the money around just to be fair to each congressional district and Congress to date has shown little inclination to adopt it.

Mid-Sized E42 Joins Bobcat M-Series Mini-Excavator Line The new E42 model joins the Bobcat M-Series compact excavator line in the 4-to-5-ton (3.6 to 4.5 t) weight class.

The E42 is a conventional tail swing unit with a 41.8 hp (31 kW) liquid-cooled diesel engine and an operating weight of 9,246 lbs. (4,194 kg).

Redesigned hydraulics with a load-sensing pump and closed center-valve system provide improved, refined control of machine travel and work-group operation. The new hydraulics combined with re-engineered boom geometry also result in increased bucket breakout forces. Cushioned work-group cylinders offer smooth end-of-stroke for precise control.

The E42 comes with an auto-idle feature which, if activated by the operator, automatically returns the engine to idle if excavator functions are not used for a period of four seconds, saving fuel and reducing job site noise. The engine automatically returns to the preset throttle position as soon as the operator starts working again. For precise engine speed adjustments, a new easy-to-use rotary knob has been added to the controls.

Within the operator’s area, the boom swing control has been moved from the floor and placed on a thumb switch on the left joystick, making it easier to operate and opening up space on the floor for the operator’s foot. New larger travel pedals fold up to provide more floor space while flushmounted floor mats make cleanup easier. A keyless start system that discourages theft and vandalism is available as an option.

A TOPS/ROPS canopy with high-back suspension seat, The E42 is a conventional tail swing unit with a 41.8 hp (31 kW) liquid-cooled diesel engine and an operating weight of 9,246 lbs. (4,194 kg).

Redesigned hydraulics with a load-sensing pump and closed center-valve system combined with re-engineered boom geometry result in increased bucket breakout forces.

retractable seat belt, cup holder, adjustable armrests and lockable toolbox is standard on the E42 while a quiet, comfortable enclosed “radio ready” cab with heat and air conditioning is available as an option. The cab includes an improved air conditioning system with a 20 percent increase in air flow and additional air ducts. An optional deluxe cloth seat also is available.

Like all Bobcat M-Series compact excavators, the E42 features an X-frame undercarriage that provides improved ground clearance and sheds debris for reduced cleanup time.

Drive motor covers are inset within the motor wrap-arounds to protect them from potential damage.

Integrated slew brakes hold loads still and steady on slopes for more accurate placement. The need for the operator to manually engage the slew brakes during transport is eliminated, making it easier to load and position the machine.

In addition, Bobcat’s in-track swing frame keeps the swing castings and cylinders within the width of the tracks when digging in an offset position, helping the operator dig flush against an obstacle. When other compact excavators work in an offset dig position, their components extend outside the tracks and reduce their ability to dig in tight areas.

The E42 is available with a long arm option that maximizes dig depth, reach and dump height clearance. Other popular options include pad-ready steel tracks, a hydraulic angle blade, second auxiliary hydraulics, hydraulic clamp and Hydraulic X-Change attachment mounting systems for quickly switching between the 16 attachments approved for use on the machines.

Case Improves Serviceability on Skid Steer Loaders The Case 400 Series 3 line of skid steer loaders feature powerful engines, a roomy, comfortable cab and improved serviceability, according to the manufacturer.

Clean-burning, Tier III certified engine power is available on the Case 410, 420, 430, 435, 440, 445, 450 and 465 skids steers.

Net horsepower for the line ranges from 57 to 83 (42 to 62 kW).

The 410 Series 3 is powered by an ISM 2.2-L turbocharged engine. The 420, 430, 435 and 445 Series 3 machines boast Case 3.2-L turbocharged engines. The 440, 450, and 465 Series 3 skid steer loaders are powered by a 4.5-L turbocharged Case engine.

In addition to Tier III certification, these engines provide improved torque, which increases performance across the line.

Comfort in The Cab “Operator comfort is a big factor in productivity,” said Jim Hughes, Case brand marketing manager. “That’s why Case is always striving to improve the cab and operator’s platform when designing and upgrading models.”

The cabs available for all Case Series 3 models feature a 7-percent increase in headroom and 6-percent increase in lap-bar width, along with improved forward, side, rear and overhead visibility. The 435, 445, 450 and 465 Series 3 models offer a 20-percent increase in front glass area, while the 410, 420, 430 and 440 Series 3 units record an 81-percent increase.

On the interior, a suspension seat comes standard, while a cushioned lap bar with arm rest and ergonomically designed control handles provide more comfort and space when operating the machines. The parking

brake has been relocated to the handle, and text labels for switches make the environment more user-friendly. The foot throttle also is standard on all models, allowing operators to easily control RPMs. The hand throttle was relocated on the Series 3 410, 420, 430 and 440 to be the same as the larger models. Also standard on the machines are the headliner, backup alarm and horn, footrest, 12v power plug, storage tray and cup holder.

On the exterior, side lighting provides full visibility to the sides during nighttime operation. A standard overhead window with more punch-outs than previous models provides enhanced visibility to the loader arms when the bucket is in the raised position. The redesigned loader tower profile provides better visibility while operating. Ergonomically designed grab handles provide easier egress/ingress to the machines.

Ease of Service The Case 400 Series 3 skid steers feature improved oil and fuel filter access, which helps avoid spills and speed up oil changes.

Awide-fin side-by-side radiator and oil cooler improves cooling of the machines. A nomaintenance fan belt on the 420, 430, 435 and 445 Series 3 models is a plus, while an automatic belt tensioner on the 440, 450 and 465 maximizes uptime because the belt does not need to be adjusted. Battery-disconnect and remote-jumpstart terminals are standard on all models, with the exception of the 410 and 420.

All Case 400 Series 3 skid steer models are built to start in colder temperatures. A larger, 1125 CCA battery (32 percent more powerful than previous models) and glow

The 410 Series 3 is powered by an ISM 2.2-L turbocharged engine.

The 435, 445, 450 and 465 Series 3 models offer a 20-percent increase in front glass area, while the 410, 420, 430 and 440 Series 3 units record an 81-percent increase.

plugs on the 410, or a grid heater on all other models, are standard.

The 410 Series 3 is tested to start unaided at 0 F (minus 17 C), while all other Case 400 Series 3 skid steer models are tested to start unaided at minus 10 F (minus 23 C). The massive, heavy-duty radiator and air cooler are sized for high-flow auxiliary hydraulics as well as operation in extreme temperatures with 10 fins per inch, four rows deep.

Single-location daily service checks remain a hallmark of the line, with sight gauges for checking hydraulic and coolant levels, a dipstick for checking engine oil levels and the air filter all located in the back of the machine. Easy-tilt ROPS provides access to major components for service.

Pilot Controls Available for All Models Pilot controls are available on all eight Case skid steer models. Case pilot controls for all models are available from the factory in either “H” or ISO patterns.

Factory-supplied accessory kits also are available through Case dealers to permanently change the pattern from H to ISO or vice versa.

With the H pattern, which is familiar to experienced Case operators, the operator uses the left-hand control to operate the left drive motor as well as to raise and lower the loader arms. The right-hand controller is used to operate the right drive motor and the bucket curl and dump. The H pattern gives the operator independent control of the

ground drives to position the machine with greater precision. This is especially helpful when performing tasks such as fine grading.

With the ISO pattern, the drive functions are in the left controller, and the loader arm/bucket functions are in the right controller. This allows for one-handed operation and is prevalent on non-Case machines.

Options for Increased Comfort, Convenience and Performance A variety of options are available for all models, including deluxe instrument panel with keyless start, road lights with turn signals, and a radio with MP3 player. Optional air conditioning is now available on the Case 410 and 420 Series 3 units, as well as the larger models.

Another feature is a deluxe cloth heated seat with lumbar support, which is available on units with a deluxe cab for operators working in cold climates.

A single-point lift hook is available on the 410, 420, 430, and 440 Series 3 models to facilitate craning these models up or down into building sites.

Other options include proportional auxiliary controls, a detent switch that does not have to be held down for two-speed operation, a demolition door with mar guard, an interior rearview mirror and strobe lights.

Optional removable cab windows and solid flex tires also are available.

Martin & Martin Holds Annual Fall Contractors Auction

Tom Koenig (L) and Bob Knapp attended the sale to help a few customers evaluate the machines they wanted to bid on.

David Jewell of Martin & Martin finds out which of the Komatsu MD65EX dozers the high bidder wants to take.

M

artin & Martin Auctioneers Inc. held its annual Fall Contractors Auction Sept. 22 and 23 in Pelzer, S.C.

A wide selection of equipment went on the block, including crawler dozers, backhoes, rollers and pavers, skid steers, motorgraders and scrapers, boom trucks, dump trucks, water trucks and more.

David Jewell (L) of Martin & Martin and Jeff Martin of Martin & Martin of Mississippi go over a few details about the auction between machines being sold.

Going over this Terex TX760B backhoe is Dwayne Holt of Double H Landscaping in Stokesdale, N.C. Jackie Atkinson (L) of J&J Truck Sales and Jason Payne of Atkinson Truck Sales, both in Chattham, Va., discuss a few machines they plan to bid on.

Walt Panagakos (L) of Panagakos Asphalt in Greenville had a few questions about several pieces of equipment he intended to bid on, so he found the man with the answers, Joe Boger of Martin & Martin.

(L-R): George Cobb of Cobb Equipment in Lexington, N.C.; Bob McCarter of McCarter Contracting in Columbia; and Ed Wilson of Little Loaders in Greenville, S.C., decide which of the machines they want to bid on. All three men came to buy a few machines.

Ed Turner (L) of Turner Hauling in York, S.C., and Bubba Bailes of Bailes Septic Tank in Clover, S.C., were both interested in the excavators and dump trucks.

The registered bidders came from over half the country, Mexico, Central and South America. The sale included a wide machine selection.

“We’ve been buying Case equipment for 20 years and are impressed. The compact track loaders give us power when we need it in tough situations, such as moving heavy rock. We get great digging power and traction.”

The new Case 400 Series 3 line of compact track loaders gives you everything you expect from Case…and more. We've upgraded to Tier III-certified, turbocharged engines to deliver more horsepower and torque. The redesigned cab features improved visibility on all sides.

Plus a suspension seat and ergonomically-designed controls make sure operators are more comfortable and productive. And there's more.

Our dozer-style undercarriage is engineered with fewer moving parts and better components to lower maintenance costs. The new 400 Series 3 line—we put more in, so you’ll get more out.
