Mine Drilling Services fills the need for reliable drilling support

by Jon M. Casey

One advantage of drilling with a Gill Beetle drill rig is its agility in difficult locations. With the unit's air compressor located on a lower bench, the drill operator is able to work on a small area above.

For Randy May, owning a blast hole drilling company has been a dream come true. Randy, coowner of the recently formed Mine Drilling Services of Clearfield, PA, has a long history working with drillers and blasters in the quarry industry. It was not however, until he formed a partnership with long time business associate and friend, Grant Wise, that Randy was able to set out to serve regional customers with their blast hole drilling needs in Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York and surrounding areas.

“I had been involved with drilling in some form for most of my career,” said May during a recent visit to the Glenn O. Hawbaker, Inc. Hagermans Run Aggregate Facility near Williamsport, PA. We were visiting this particular quarry because MDS’s new Model 300C Gill Rock Beetle® was busy drilling more than two dozen blast holes atop a bluff there. The rock is scheduled to be mined for aggregates that will primarily be used to support the Marcellus Shale Gas

Work is progressing nicely on the recent relocation of Hagerman's Run's processing plant. The entire plant was moved a short distance at this site to allow for additional mining of rock close to the plant. drilling industry in the area. overseeing blast drilling for a short period, Orica was “In the past, I had worked with York Drilling, DNX looking to divest itself of its drilling assets.

Orica had acquired that we could work together to serve both industries the D.C. Guelich Explosives Co., a drilling and blast- successfully.

MDS from 3 blast hole drilling, if MDS has the need for additional drilling equipment during especially busy times, it is an added benefit to have J. Roy’s, Inc. available to help us out if they have extra available rigs.”

May said that in addition to the newly purchased Beetle, MDS also has five additional Gill Rock Beetles and three smaller pneumatic top hammer drills. “We acquired the drilling assets from Orica in 2010,” he said. “We negotiated to hire 10 employees to do the drilling as well. Most of our people have from 10 to 30 years drilling experience, so it was a good fit from the very beginning.”

“Our people are the best at what they do,” he noted.

“If it wasn’t for them, we wouldn’t have been able to start right up doing the kind of business that we are currently doing. Drillers like Guy Kitchen and John Hudson, who are working this job today, are the reason that things have gone as smoothly as they have. Guy has more than 30 years experience and John, more than 10. They know the customer’s needs, they know the quarry and blasting industry and they know safety. That is an excellent combination. They all work well together to get the job done.”

“We are the exclusive drillers for Orica,” noted May. “I take care of the sales work and scheduling, and because of the relationships that I had developed with several of the quarry producers over the years, we were able to work with them to provide their blast hole drilling needs. We have been able to not only keep all of our crews busy since we started business officially on October 11, 2010, but we have picked up new accounts as well. We have hired two new people recently, and will be looking to add a couple more in the coming months.”

May said that he prefers using the Gill Rock Beetle over truck mounted drill rigs because the Beetle, with its maneuverability and separate air compressor, allows MDS drillers to drill in places where other larger equipment would be prohibited from accessing. “The articulating arm on our new Beetle makes it easy for Guy to move from one bore hole to the next one,” said May. “In a year’s time, an experienced driller like Guy can do more drill footage with a drill like this one.

May said that MDS works out of their headquarters Clearfield, PA facility, from which they serve quarries throughout the area. The shop formerly housed the drilling equipment and crews when it was under Orica ownership. “We kept the same facility because our crews all live in the area,” he said. “That makes it easier on them.” For more information on Mine Drilling Services, contact Randy May at 717-5992028 or at ramay5143@aol.com.

Gill Rock Drills offer customers distinct advantages

by Jon M. Casey During our recent visit with Randy May, it didn’t take long to realize that his company’s reliance on Gill Rock Drills was born of experience with aggregate blasting drilling. Randy’s appreciation for the agility and maneuverability of his company’s new Model 312 Gill Beetle® Drill, was evident as we watched Guy Kitchen and John Hudson drilling blast holes atop a new section of rock that was due for mining in the coming days.

He noted that because of the drill’s smaller size, MDS is able to serve their customers more effectively without sacrificing drilling production. “With the remote air compressor positioned on a lower bench, we are able to take the Beetle up to the higher level and do drilling that other, larger drills could not access,” said May. “We were able to move this rig around to the top of the bench to an area where a truck mounted drill could not safely go. As you can see, Guy

and John can position the drill safely and do the work up here where a larger rig would not be able to go.”

Eric Crosson, vice president of sales for Gill Rock Drill Co., Inc. agrees. “We have developed new technologies on our latest model the 312 Beetle Drill that makes them better equipped to drill rock on rougher terrain,” he said. “That helps equip our customers to be more productive, and at the same time, our equipment is safer to use than ever.”

Crosson recalled that Gill Rock Drill Co., Inc. has been servicing the MDS fleet for a long time. “Our history with Randy and Grant Wise goes back a number of years,” he said. “We originally worked with the D.C. Guelich Explosives Co. and then with Orica’s drilling division, before Randy and Grant bought out their assets. We also have worked with J. Roy’s, Inc. in Bowmansville, PA, Grant Wise’s drilling operation; so we have a long working relation-

ship with them.”

“That is one of the advantages of owing a Gill Rock Drill,” said Crosson. “We can jump at a moment’s notice to serve our customers if they have a need for parts or service for their equipment. We manufacture all of our parts for the drill rigs at our manufacturing plant in Lebanon, PA, so we stock a complete inventory of whatever a customer might need for his Beetle Drill. Because we have and experienced service team, we also are able to not only repair equipment when it is not working properly, but we can also train our customers’ service staff to maintain and service their drill rigs to help keep them running smoothly for many years.

Similarly, we are able to train the drillers on how to operate the latest models of our drills.”

Does your site have work groups where several people are required to “manage the work” without supervisor oversight at every minute? Are there multiple supervisors that jointly share responsibility for overseeing the work of more than one crew? Do you oversee such a group or work area? Then this article is for you.

Having a team of people manage their own work and do a good job of it sounds like management “utopia.” The truth is that their success is totally dependent on: 1. Management tools and processes that help the group understand one plan for the work; 2. The training process for bringing new members into that workgroup, and; 3. Expectations for promotion/progression attached to teamwork required for success of the team.

Without these three elements in place, 1. All success hinges on the work ethic and commitment of the individuals in that group; 2. Intellectual property of the company (i.e., the body of knowledge required to “manage the work”) will be lost when key members of the group retire. Closer supervision of such a group will not compensate for this loss.

Work groups that truly behave as tight knit teams in the workplace develop some unique dynamics.

Like Indiana University’s 1976 NCAA championship team, they get so familiar with how each other thinks that they act as a single body, knowing who is going to do what at every moment, knowing that each person is looking out for everyone else’s safety and knowing that there is a constant willingness to help get the job done throughout the day.

This sounds like a “per-

CAPITAL EQUIPMENT COMPANY 9714 Ensley Lane Leawood, KS 66206 John Mabry 816-830-6421

fect world” scenario until it’s time to rotate new people into the group for cross training or development for promotion. Now some unique challenges present themselves: 1. Employees in the group may not welcome new employees because they do not know how this person will “support the team.” This concern may be a real one of there is no expectation and accountability from within the training program that a person learn and participate in the teamwork aspect of the job. Many times training programs are SOP based. Testing and proficiency assessments are task focused.

This type of training program fails to address expectations for learning how to “manage the work” as an overarching requirement of working in a team environment. Only management can fix this problem because management sets the expectations for

performance and only management can hold people accountable for meeting those expectations, not the team.

2. Special management tools and processes are often needed to help the team stay on track with one plan. Sitting in a meeting talking about what should happen that day may not be adequate to capture a structured plan for the day. A planning worksheet with team member names and tasks done on shift often helps solve this problem, especially if team members are physically separated during the day as they complete their tasks.

Management must be aware of the success factors associated with tight knit teams and design management tools and processes to compensate for the positives and negatives that come with them.

Thought for the month: Even the best team will be compromised

AEMP elects new Executive Committee members and President/CEO, Chairman of the Board

Dave Gorski.

GLENWOOD SPRINGS, CO — AEMP (Association of Equipment Management Professionals), the

premier organization for asset management professionals of off road fleets, has elected the new 2011/2012 Executive Committee members to its Board of Directors. Each year, AEMP members select top peers from various organizations to lead the board, as well as the organization’s new president/CEO who also serves as chairman of the Board. The new members were recognized and inaugurated at AEMP’s 29th annual Spring Manage-

ment Conference in Las Vegas.

Dave Gorski, CEM, equipment manager for K5 Construction, Chicago was elected president/CEO and chairman of the Board.

He will take office immediately and serve through March 2012. Gorski’s main goals for the upcoming year are building on the organization’s strategic initiatives, including two of the most recent — AEMP University and Green Fleet Certification.

“AEMP experienced two major milestones in both these initiatives early this year,” he said.

“AEMP University was officially launched at the conference, and we awarded our first Green Fleet certified company.

I’m looking forward to continuing with these important initiatives and building on the awareness and momentum they’ve already created.”

Additionally, Gorski and his leadership team will continue to focus on building partnerships within the industry. Evidence of that commitment is AEMP’s involvement with the Association of Equipment Manufacturers. AEMP provided educational seminars at the recent CONEXPO tradeshow, and will continue joint education efforts at the ICUEE Demo Expo this October.

Gorski has been a member of AEMP since 1999.

He earned the certified equipment manager

(CEM) designation in 2000, and has served on numerous boards and committees since 2005. In his time as an active member, he has held numerous board and committee positions, including treasurer, chair elect and director of Construction Fleets.

In addition to a new CEO, AEMP elected six new Executive Committee members to the Board of Directors. Guy Gordon, CEM, director of Asset Management for Insituform Technologies, Chesterfield MO was selected chairman elect and will assume the position of chairman of the Board in March 2012.

Three vice chairmen were also chosen, Dan Connelly, CEM, vice president of Equipment, Oldcastle, Columbus, Ohio; Chris Ryan, CEM, equipment manager, Boh Bros.

Construction, New Orleans, LA and Bob Merritt, CEM, director of equipment, URS Corporation, Boise, ID. Finally, Pat Crail, CEM, fleet information manager, John R. Jurgensen Co.,

Cincinnati, Ohio was elected treasurer. Daryl Crear, fleet manager, Rumpke Consolidated Companies, Cincinnati, Ohio and outgoing chairman/CEO, will serve as immediate past chairman.

Formed in 1980, the Association of Equipment Management Professionals represents fleet professionals working in construction, government, utilities, energy, mining and more. AEMP maintains relationships among manufacturers, users, governmental agencies, educational institutions and others involved in the design and management of heavy equipment.

AEMP created the term “Equipment Triangle.” It is the cornerstone of the association’s philosophy that a balanced relationship must exist between the end user, distributor and OEM/supplier in the life cycle of a piece of heavy equipment or product. AEMP advances this philosophy through its education and certification programs. For more information, visit www.aemp.org.

‘F rom Roofs to Roads, ’ T idewater Green opens new doors to the marketplace

by Jon M. Casey

A load of ground shingles is headed for an asphalt company in North Carolina.

It has been just a little over one year since Andy and we market it in various ways to nearby Warren obtained the necessary permitting to open customers.”

Tidewater Green, a shingle and wood waste recycling Warren said that for the first year of operation, facility in Chesapeake, VA. Once the doors were open when he had a sufficient amount of shingles to grind, however, it didn’t take long for the community to he would call in a contract grinding company to grind respond. Since then, the business has grown steadi- what he had on hand. As time passed, he accumulated enough wood waste to have it ground as well. It ly, with new customers added weekly.

“We stared out looking to recycle tear off shingles, wasn’t long before Warren could see that it was time as a way of diverting them from the local landfills and for them to consider purchasing a grinder. Thus, on as a way to help reduce the cost of petroleum based the day that North American Quarry News was tourasphalt mix ingredients for the paving industry,” said ing the Tidewater Green Recycling Center, he was Warren during a recent visit. “What we quickly found demoing a new Rotochopper® MP 2 grinder, one of was that when roofers pulled off the roofing material, the equipment brands that he has been considering. a lot of times, they needed to make repairs to the “We were getting a tremendous amount of wood in wooden structures underneath. That made for mixed with the shingles,” he said. “We were having the wood loads of C&D material. We began taking that in as ground, and we then would sell it to nearby liquid well and sorting it. We began grinding the wood waste waste processors who use the ground wood as a

Tidewater Green's company logo reminds visitors of the company's desire to turn recycled shingles into new paving material. solidifier for the liquid waste. In that way, they have more options for how they could dispose of that material once the liquid had been absorbed. With our own grinder, it will give us more options for our wood waste material.”

“Today, we wanted to get a feel for how a high speed grinder would work,” said Warren. “We tested a slow speed grinder earlier this year and today, Jody Parker and Dennis Finken brought their unit by to show us how it performs under our conditions. We are looking to purchase a Rotochopper MP266, which is actually a larger unit than this one, but Jody was going to be in the area demoing this unit throughout the region, and we agreed that this would be a good opportunity to see how well a high-speed grinder would work for us.”

“From Roofs to Roads” Warren recalled that he had come from a construction background, and was a professional firefighter before going into business with Dickie Cameron, a former police officer for the Virginia Beach Police Department.

“Dickie had started a dumpster rental company, and was looking to open a transfer station when I approached him about going together in this operation. I had been in the underground utility business and had bought a hook lift truck to haul waste, dirt spoil and new piping

material. Before I knew it, I was hauling and supplying open top containers for other contractors and builders. Eventually, I ended up owning 40 open top containers for rental. That was five years ago. As that business took off, it wasn’t long before I could see that I wanted to be the one to receive the waste rather than hauling it to a landfill.”

“Dickie and I put our heads together,” he said.

“Then, we came up with some private investors who had faith in us. We began operations last April. Since then, we’ve just kept growing and growing.”

“We are passionate about landfill diversion and saving our resources, especially when it comes to foreign oil,” said Warren. “That is why we started with recycling shingles. VADOT allows approved mixes using ground shingles (RAS) as well as ground asphalt (RAP), and we saw that there was not a reliable resource in this area for ground shingles, that asphalt producers could come to for quality ground material.”

Warren sees a bright future in the ground shingle market, especially with the high prices of petroleum and asphalt products. By sorting materials on their Doppstadt DUS 6090 picking station before stockpiling the shingles for grinding, they are able to improve the quality of their raw material and at the same time, they can recycle other metals, plastic, paper and wood that tends to make its way into the loads as they come into the center.

“RAS has four to five times the asphalt percentage of RAP,” said Warren. “We want to process the shingles as a hot-mix additive that pavers can use with confidence. So we have opened new doors to that market in the tidewater area of Virginia. What is really exciting is that we have rail and barge capabilities from this location as well.”

Warren said that he was especially pleased with how well and how closely the VA Dept. of Environmental Quality worked with him and his people as they went through the permitting process.

“They were there to help us every step of the way,” he said. “They want businesses like ours to succeed because they see the need for recycling these various materials as a way of helping the nation.”

One of the biggest challenges that Tidewater Green has found in its first year of operation is getting paving contractors to come onboard with using more RAS in their mix designs. “Because of the difficult economic times right now, asphalt producers are hesitant to try something new,” said Warren. “They are slow to change because of the uncertainty in the marketplace. Despite the proven results of RAS, paving companies are still slow to make the changes in their formulations, which would make RAS a regu-

lar ingredient in many of their products.”

“More people are looking for ways to save on the cost of materials, and RAS is certainly one of those ways. Last year, we were able to divert more than 13,000 tons of shingles and wood from the landfills.

We are looking to more than double that this year.”

Andy Warren loads wood waste into the Rotochopper MP2 during a recent demonstration at Tidewater Green's facility in Chesapeake, VA.

Rotochopper demonstration gives recycler on site appraisal

by Jon M. Casey As Andy Warren began to look for ways to grind his shingles and wood waste material, he entertained the idea of both low and high speed grinders to do the job.

After a trial with a popular low speed unit, he turned to Jody Parker, regional sales manager for Rotochopper®, Inc. for an alternative high speed unit to use as a comparison. Warren had been considering the purchase of an MC-266 so that he would have the flexibility of being able to grind material on site at his Tidewater Green recycling facility. He also wants to, be able to move it from site to site so that he can offer custom grinding for other contractors and recyclers in the area, in much the same way that he had been relying upon custom material grinders to deal with his own shingles and wood waste.

By running the numbers on Tidewater Green’s raw waste material intake, Parker and Warren determined that Tidewater would be best served by a grinder that would be more compact and portable than the RG-1 purpose built shingle grinder or the B-66 SP, the two primary Rotochopper shingle grinder models. Roto-chopper also offers a compact electric powered stationary shingle grinder, the RG-1 S, but because Warren wants the versatility to grind wood

and take the machine anywhere, the MC-266 is a really good fit for his volume of wood and shingle waste.

As a way for Warren to observe a Rotochopper in action, when Parker had the opportunity to demonstrate an MP-2, a smaller though powerful grinder, at Tidewater Green, Warren jumped at the opportunity. He was looking for a unit that not only could make short work of the shingles that Tidewater Green takes in, but he was also looking for a grinder that could turn his wood waste and pallets into value added mulch and biomass material that could help enhance the company’s bottom line.

Parker, who oversees sales for Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina and Virginia, said Tidewater Green’s consideration of the larger MC-266 model will give Warren plenty of capability not only for the company’s current grinding needs, but also for future considerations as well.

“The MC-266 has roughly twice the grinding capacity as the MP2,” he said. “While they have similar features the MC-266 will give Tidewater Green the opportunity to grow without the need for an upgrade later on. Meanwhile, Warren can add optional features like the colorizing system and various screen options, so that he

can do everything from grinding shingles to creating colorful, high quality mulch, with the same machine.”

Parker said that one of the reasons that Warren is considering a Rotochopper is because of how thoroughly the unit grinds material in one pass. “’Our Perfect in One Pass’ finished product gives mulch producers the product they need the first time through the grinder. That equates to considerable fuel savings in the end. More importantly, the road legal MC-266 can go where Andy needs to take it if he has contractors who want him to do site prep work at their projects.”

By working with some of the materials that Tidewater Green has taken in over recent weeks, this demonstration opportunity was extremely helpful when it comes to making the right choice of equipment. “We like to offer our customers demonstrations like this so that they can see for themselves how efficient and versatile our grinders can be,” said Parker.

“Today, we will have ground C&D waste and turned wooden pallets into colored mulch, all in the matter of a couple of hours. That’s the kind of flexibility that Andy needs as he grows his business.”

W.S. Tyler CPA offers faster, more accurate particle measurement than sieve analysis

With up to 20,000 scans per second, the CPA’s high resolution line camera analyzes particles as small as 10 microns, capturing particle shape and size and recording the quantity.

ONTARIO, CANADA — The Computerized Particle Analysis (CPA) System from St. Catharines, Ontario based W.S. Tyler, a wholly owned subsidiary of the German based Haver Screening Group, offers more precise particle measurement beyond traditional sieve analysis. Ideal for operations that perform 15-20 or more sieves per day, CPA technology uses a digital line camera to measure particles up to 10 times faster than conventional sieve methods. With up to 20,000 scans per second, the CPA’s high resolution line camera analyzes particles as small as 10 microns, capturing particle shape and size and recording the quantity. This eliminates manual calculations and operator error, while reducing quality assurance costs. The result is more production of higher dollar value material and less waste.

CPA equipment is available in multiple sizes, the largest of which can accurately measure material up to 15.5-inches in size. Operations can use it on site or in traveling labs, as well as online and inline. Using an automatic belt sampler, CPA can be used online and automated to run operator

free with scheduled or continuous sampling.

One test sample takes just three to five minutes. If material is found to be out of spec, the CPA can be programmed to sound an alarm, stop the process or even change parameters on the processing equipment. Using CPA inline means analyzing 100 percent of the material stream in real time. Inline analysis is used in applications where quality control of the complete material stream is required and sample testing is not sufficient.

All material gets analyzed, so the inline unit is generally common at low production rates.

Both online and inline units are designed to ensure the customer’s image and bottom line are protected by minimizing the possibility of quality claims or rework of contaminated product. All CPA models use Windows friendly software for reading, recording, calculating, analysis and display of the sample results.

Traditional sieve shakers and sieve stacks can determine particle size accurately.

But with increasingly stringent quality standards, it’s often necessary to measure particle shape, weight and quantity. Because it involves a mechanical process, traditional sieve analysis can take up to 35 minutes to obtain these results. The sieves can encounter problems with wide tolerances, sieve blinding and manual calculations. With CPA, the material does not require preparation; size and shape are determined in a matter of seconds. Tolerance con-

CPA equipment is available in multiple sizes, the largest of which can accurately measure material up to 15.5inches in size.

ditions and sieve blinding and pegging are eliminated. The calculations are automatic, so results are consistent between operators, shifts and plant locations and can be repeated in large volumes if needed.

CPA is also ideal for material processors that strive to meet strict government specifications.

Some government agencies have built their material quality requirements around traditional Ro-Tap measuring technology, which has been around since the early 1900s. While CPA acceptance is still in its infancy with these agencies, the technology is proven to accurately measure material for quality assurance. Occasional sieve tests can be conducted to meet their requirements, but using CPA online for consistent, accurate analysis will allow operations to save time and money and prevent waste created by out of spec material.

W.S. Tyler is a wholly owned subsidiary of the German based Haver Screening Group. With facilities in the U.S., Canada, Germany and Brazil, the Haver Screening Group is the only company in the world that provides premium screening solutions encompassing the

complete screening circle of particle analysis, screening media, vibrating screens and process equipment, and complete production analysis, service and parts

MORRIS, MN — Superior Industries, a leading manufacturer of conveyor systems and components, released the market’s first ever primary and secondary belt cleaning system — sharing the same, common mounting point. With one pole, maintenance workers can avoid adding to their conveyor’s structure, a common task to accommodate secondary cleaners.

Another key feature is the Exterra® SFL Dual Belt Cleaner’s unique tension-

Model Single Dual Three Four

ing system — the patented design creates a pressure that is set once, for the life of the blade, during installation.

The company’s Exterra SFL Dual Belt Cleaner is designed to nearly eliminate material carry back from the top cover of conveyor belting after it passes over the head pulley.

When left unchecked, carry back causes material buildup on idlers, pulleys and other components — a problem that causes mistracking or

belt damage. More importantly, carry back creates unwanted fugitive material piles under the conveyor.

The primary scraper is equipped with Superior’s Exterra Primary Belt Cleaner. Packed with more urethane, the blade has one of the bulkiest profiles of any primary scraper on the market.

Mounted to the same pole as the primary, the secondary cleaner is available in either AR steel (STD) or tungsten car-

bide. It is designed with segmented blades to withstand vibration and impact from belt splices during operation.

Superior designs and builds its new Exterra SFL Dual Belt Cleaner to accommodate head pulleys with diameters of 12 to 20-inches and belt widths of 18 to 60-inches.

Later this year, the company plans to expand the one time tensioning unit to accommodate pulley diameters up to 30-inches.

The Exterra SFL Dual Belt Cleaner is the first ever primary and secondary belt cleaning system — sharing the same, common mounting point.

Headquartered in Morris, MN, Superior Industries designs and fabricates a full line of conveying equipment, telescoping conveyors, supply erect systems, feed systems, conveyor idlers,

pulleys, as well as other conveyor components.

Besides Morris, the company operates from manufacturing facilities in Prescott Valley, AZ and Norcross, GA.

Safety Solutions: Common sense “Common sense is not so common.”

- Voltaire I do my best to engage people in my training sessions. I try to make them think. I try to challenge their perceptions of safety and convince them that they can get their work done better if they do it safer. That’s it. Of course there are some skills passed on along the way, but that’s the basis for my safety training. You know how to do your job. You know how to do it safely. Now why aren’t you doing it safely, or what could you do to be safer.

“They just don’t use common sense,” or some similar phrase comes up in discussion at many of these sessions. Whether or not I want it to, it comes up. When we are reviewing a fatality where the victim seems to have had a serious lapse of it, a simple need for “common sense” is expressed by those in the room. The need for it also comes into the discussion when participants are complaining of their most recent encounter with a supervisor or inspector.

Recently I had a class challenge my own perception of common sense and I have to ad-

mit I changed my idea of “common sense” at least a little. My own opinion of “common sense” was that it wasn’t a reliable safety net or actually not a safety net at all, but an excuse. I guess that’s because as the safety professional I’ve most often had “common sense” thrown at me in response to a safety rule or procedure I was telling someone about that they thought was unnecessary or excessive. “We really don’t have to do all that, we just have to be careful and use a bit of common sense.” “Be careful” is another phrase I don’t care for, but that’s another column.

This class, unanimously put common sense at the top of a list of things that keep us all safe. They had some good examples. It wasn’t “common sense” to reach into machinery that wasn’t properly locked out; it wasn’t “common sense” to expect equipment to remain in place without the brakes set and it wasn’t “common sense” to work 45-feet off the ground without proper fall protection. They made a good case for making “common sense” at least one of the tools in your safety bag. It ele-

vated my opinion of it, but I’m still not sold on it being the only thing we need because many would also argue that “common sense” tells you that a parking brake is unnecessary on level ground. The rules, according to MSHA at least say otherwise and I’d have to argue that even though it may not be necessary in most situations it’s also not a hardship and engaging it provides additional protection.

Face it. Nobody, except maybe the safety professional, really likes rules, especially when they’re applied to them or applied without consideration for the specific situation. The speed limit is a good rule to keep the guy doing a hundred from killing good folks like me, but it’s not as great an idea when I’m in a hurry or especially when I’m stopped with the state trooper behind me enforcing that rule. We can debate the “common sense” of a 35 MPH speed limit on a section of four lane divided highway or the safety of doing 80 on a straight stretch of interstate with no cars in site, but our defense of “common sense” actions that break the rules fall apart when someone gets hurt.

Of course then it would no longer be “common sense.” It seems that “common sense” much like hindsight is 20/20.

How about the MSHA rules? What’s the purpose of them? Well actually it tells us right in the regulations.

30 CFR § 56.1 Purpose and scope This part 56 sets forth mandatory safety and health standards for each surface metal or nonmetal mine, including open pit mines, subject to the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. The purpose of these standards is the protection of life, the promotion of health and safety and the prevention of accidents.

Well, that certainly seems like a good idea. I won’t get into how they are sometimes applied since I like to stay positive here. The bottom line is that I while agree more than before that common sense is an important part of doing your job safely, I still believe that following the rules and policies of the company and enforcement agencies is also important.

Besides, while everyone has those rules and policies to protect them, not everyone seems to have common sense.

And

everyone seems to suffer from temporary losses of “common sense” at one time or another.

Just a minute: How good is your common sense? Is it going to keep you from getting hurt?

Certainly your work should always be approached with a good helping of common sense, but don’t forget to add an understanding of the rules, what could go wrong, and a heaping of skills for the task. Don’t forget to use the most powerful tool you have,

your BRAIN and ALL of your senses.

Over 400 hard hat workers rally at foot of U.S. Capital Bi-partisan group of senior members of Congress pledge to fight for new road building jobs this year WASHINGTON, D.C. — More than 400 union and non-union hard hat workers from across America and representing all parts of the road construction industry and related materials suppliers rallied on the National Mall in support of a multi-year surface transportation bill. Congressional and industry speakers told the cheering crowd the bill is needed to create tens of thousands of good paying, new American jobs in road construction.

A bi-partisan group of senior members of the House and Senate addressed the cheering crowd.

“Some in Congress are

saying you need to do more with less. Everyone here today knows that we need to be investing more, not less if we are to keep pace with China, with India, and with our international competitors. What you get with less is less,” said Congressman Nick Rahall, ranking member of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.

The rally was sponsored by ten associations in the road building industry and their suppliers led by the National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association (NSSGA) and the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA).

“Only passage of a well funded, multi-year highway reauthorization bill can alleviate

the uncertainty that plagues our industry from hiring new employees and purchasing new equipment, and prevents state DOTs from undertaking long term projects, which ultimately threatens America’s economic recovery and growth,” said Dave Thomey, executive vice president, Maryland Materials and chairman of NSSGA. An estimated 35,000 jobs are created by every one billion of new federal highway investment. In addition to the long term benefit to the economy, federal highway investment will have the short term benefit of helping speed the economic recovery.

“The concrete reinforcing steel industry has dropped from a prerecession quantity of

approximately 10 million tons in 2007 to 6 million tons in 2010, a 40 percent drop. A six year surface transportation bill is the only way we can put people back to work,” said Bob Risser, president and chief executive officer of the Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute.

“The National Ready Mixed Concrete Association is proud to be a part of this important

coalition rallying for roads. Investment in the nation’s infrastructure is of vital importance to our economy and we urge Congress to pass a robust multi-year highway bill that will put people back to work and improve safety on our nation’s roads,” said Karl Watson, president of Cemex USA and chairman of NRMCA. Additional sponsors of the “Rally for Roads” in-

clude American Concrete Pavement Association, American Council of Engineering Companies, American Road & Transportation Builders Association, Associated Equipment Distributors, Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute, International Safety Equipment Association, National Asphalt Pavement Association and Portland Cement Association.

Congress tosses 1099 reporting requirement After months of back and forth arguments, Congress has finally sent legislation to the president’s desk repealing the onerous 1099 reporting requirement from last year’s health care law.

On April 5, the Senate approved, 87-12, the Comprehensive 1099 Taxpayer Protection and Repayment of Exchange Subsidy Overpayments Act (H.R. 4). The Senate’s actions came more than a month after the House had passed the bill. President Obama is expected to sign H.R. 4 into law in the coming days.

H.R. 4 is the first piece of legislation

repealing any portion of the health care law to make it through both the House and Senate. Since the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was enacted last year, AED and our partners in the Small Business Coalition for Affordable Health Care have made 1099 repeal a top priority. The burdensome mandate would have forced companies to report every transaction with an outside vendor totaling more than $600 on an IRS Form 1099 beginning in 2012.

AED congratulations everyone who took the time to contact lawmakers via aedaction.org in support of 1099 repeal.

The rally was sponsored by ten associations in the road building industry and their suppliers, led by the National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association (NSSGA) and the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA).

Major Wire introduces 1x2 modular panels with vibrating wire Flex-Mat 3 advanced technology CANDIAC, QUEBEC, CANADA — Montreal based Major Wire Industries Limited starts introducing its full line of new 1-foot x 2-foot Flex-Mat® 3 self-cleaning polyurethane modular screen media panels this spring. This new screen media size fits virtually any flat surface screen deck, so screening operations using traditional 1foot x 1-foot and 1-foot x 2-foot polyurethane and rubber panels can increase their existing screening capacity and

in-spec material throughput up to 50 percent.

Screening operations can choose between snap, step, pin and grooved types in opening sizes of 30 mesh, or 0.020-inches, up to 1-1/2-inches.

Proven Flex-Mat 3 Modular 1-foot x 1-foot panels were introduced earlier in 2007.

Both Flex-Mat 3 Modular’s 1-foot x 1-foot and 1foot x 2-foot panels provide up to 50 percent more screen open area than traditional rigid polyurethane and rubber

panels. In addition, each new 1-foot x 2-foot FlexMat 3 Modular panel increases total screen media open area by 4.6 percent when compared to using two 1-foot x 1-foot panels to cover the same screen deck area. No screen box changes are necessary to switch to the larger panels.

One key to Flex-Mat 3’s success in both tensioned and modular screen media is its independently vibrating wires that increase product throughput over traditional rigid

polyurethane and rubber panels by creating more screening action and eliminating blinding, pegging and clogging. By stretching the wire and using two different configurations of Major Wire’s signature lime green strips, the new 1foot x 2-foot modular panels employ the same independently vibrating wires without sacrificing wear life.

For modular panels with wire diameters smaller than 0.135-inches, the wire is tensioned
