When the Chamberlain Truss Bridge in south centralSouth Dakota received a critical rating in 2008 for deckand structural deficiency, it was necessary to make achoice to either rehabilitate the bridge or build a newstructure.

The bridge, which has been on the National Register ofHistoric Places in South Dakota since Sept. 14, 2001,spans the Missouri River on Highway 16, and connectsthe downtown area of the city of Chamberlain, S.D., withthe city of Oacoma. The bridge spans a causeway of themain channel of the Missouri River, extending almost amile.

Replacing the bridge was considered because of theage of the bridge and because the bridge is not structural-ly strong enough to handle the weight of today’s largertrucks.

“Trucks at the time the bridge was built were not asheavy,” said Rick Brandner, project engineer with theSouth Dakota Department of Transportation, Mitchelldivision. “Designers were looking at whether the struc-ture could handle current truck capacity.”

Gas Pipe Explosion InspiresDebate on Nationwide IssueBy Garance Burke and Jason DearenASSOCIATED PRESS WRITERS

SAN BRUNO, Calif. (AP) The tragic explo-sion of a gas pipeline in a San Francisco suburbhas shed light on a problem usually kept under-ground: Communities have expanded overpipes built decades earlier when no one livedthere.

Utilities have been under pressure for yearsto better inspect and replace aging gas pipesmany of them laid years before sprawling com-munities were erected around them — that noware at risk of leaking or erupting.

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

tant to spend the money necessary to properlyfix and replace decrepit pipelines.

“If this was the FAA and air travel we weretalking about, I wouldn't get on a plane,” saidRick Kessler, a former congressional stafferspecializing in pipeline safety issues who nowworks for the Pipeline Safety Trust, an advoca-cy group based in Bellingham, Wash.

Investigators are still trying to figure out howthe pipeline in San Bruno ruptured and igniteda gigantic fireball that torched one home afteranother in the neighborhood, killing at leastfour people. Pacific Gas & Electric Co., thepipeline's owner, said Sept. 13 it has set asideup to $100 million to help residents recover.

Experts say the California disaster epito-mizes the risks that communities face with oldgas lines. The pipe was more than 50 years old

An enduring story of the current recessionhas been the nation’s construction swoon,which has industry leaders and governmentofficials alike in a daze about how to correct agrievous loss of construction jobs. With theindustry’s jobless rate hovering around 17 per-cent and no instrument in sight to lower it, it’slittle wonder that two-thirds of surveyed indus-try leaders believe the dilemma will continue atleast another year.

The Building Contractors Association of Indiana heldits 33rd Annual BCA Construction & Design ExpoSept. 15 and 16 in Fort Wayne, Ind.

BCA Executive Director Lori Harvey explained thatwhile this was the 33rd edition of the show, in many ways itwas an entirely new event for the association. For years, theshow had been held at the Allen County War MemorialColiseum during March, but this year the show moved to anew date and a new location.

The move to the Allen County Fairgrounds provided morespace for exhibitors to display their equipment and allowedattendees an opportunity to see many of the machines inaction. The new venue encompassed nearly 20 acres withmore than 60,000 sq. ft. of exhibit area, including inside andoutside spaces. More than 140 exhibitors were on hand toshowcase equipment, supplies and services.

The show was established in 1976 as a networking and

educational event for Building Contractors Associationmembers. Since then the event has come to be recognized asan interactive forum for industry professionals from the res-idential and commercial building, architectural, engineeringfields as well as property managers and municipal employ-ees.

In addition to the vendor exhibits, the show featured abackhoe rodeo, tool belt olympics, safety demos, workshopsand auctions on both days conducted by Alex Lyon & Son.

The opening night BCAbash drew a large crowd of indus-try professionals who came to enjoy a hog roast and enter-tainment by local county music favorites, Backwater.

The backhoe rodeo was sponsored by B&W EquipmentCo., MacAllister Machinery, MacDonald Machinery andSoutheastern Equipment Co., all of whom donated machinesfor use in the event.

Minnich’s Dust Collection System Benefits Operator, EnvironmentMinnich Manufacturing, a manufacturer

of dowel pin drills, concrete paving vibratorsand vibrating monitoring systems recentlysubmitted its dust collection system for test-ing by the National Institute forOccupational Safety and Health, (NIOSH),the testing division of OSHA.

The dust collection system is designed towork with any Minnich’s dowel pin drills togreatly reduce the operators exposure to con-crete dust in the air. When used in conjunc-tion with the company’s wireless remotecontrol system it further reduces the opera-tors exposure to harmful silica dust.

According to Minnich SalesRepresentative Todd Jurjevic, when NIOSHapproached them, the company welcomedthe opportunity to be the first and only man-ufacturer of this type of equipment to be test-ed. Jurjevic said they were pleased to makeavailable a solution to a job-site problemwith a product backed by government test-ing.

Along with their line of concrete pavingvibrators and vibrator monitoring systems,

Minnich began building dowel pin drillunits in 1985. The units, available in bothsingle and multi-gang units, are poweredpneumatically or hydraulically and can bemanual, self-propelled or mounted on back-hoes, skid steer loaders and various otherpieces of equipment. The drilling process forthe units creates silica dust that can be harm-ful to breathe and may create visibility con-cerns in high traffic areas.

Simple solutions, such as water kitsdesigned to suppress the dust with waterspray, creates a slurry that becomes a collec-tion hazard and also is hard on drill units.

Minnich’s dust collection system is com-prised of a vacuum that hooks into the sideof the drill rod guide, collecting dust beforeit escapes into the air, and depositing it into afive-gallon pail. Minnich elected to use thepails because they are not subject to tearinglike plastic bags and because the readilyavailable pails can be handled and transport-ed by one person. In addition, pails are easyto seal for proper disposal.

In addition to its dust collection unit,Minnich also introduced a remote controlsystem in January of 2009. The remote con-trol unit offers further protection from expo-sure to the harmful silica dust.

The dust collection system was initiallytested by NIOSH in July 2008 at Minnich’sManufacturing facility. The evaluation wasconducted over several days to determineand document the system’s effectiveness atreducing dust emissions generated by adowel pin drilling machine. After the testingNIOSH reported that when compared todrilling concrete without a system, theMinnich dust collection system reduced res-pirable dust concentrations by 89 percent.

NIOSH returned to Minnich for testing inJune of this year. This new round of testingwas set up to help the organization establishstandardized testing procedures that takeinto account operator exposure based onproximity to the work area.

During the testing, the Minnich dowel pindrill equipped with the dust collection unitwas set up in a tent with air quality monitorspositioned where the operator would be.Tests also were conducted on the amount ofsuction at the drilling surface and at the col-lection receptacle to determine the amountof suction loss. Additional testing at an actu-al job site is also being pursued by theagency.

The results of the testing, originallyexpected to be available in late August, havebeen delayed due demands on NIOSHregarding he Gulf oil spill.

Jurjevic explained that Minnich initiallyoffered the dust collection systems when acustomer requested it, however, now itincludes it, as an option, on every one of its

proposals so the customer understands thereis a system available for the unit. The systemcan be retrofitted to any Minnich dowel pindrill unit and can be fitted to competitiveunits as well. According to Jurjevic, approx-imately 80 percent of Minnich’s larger unitsare sold with remote controls and 50 percentof the big units are fitted with their dust col-lection system. Those numbers are likely toincrease as local and federal standards regu-lating safety and emissions are tightened.

According to Tom Held of Fabick CAT,Minnich dowel pin drills equipped with thedust collection system have been wellreceived by its customers. Held noted thatone company put the system on an I-70 roadproject to protect their workers, but found anadded benefit was the system eliminated theclouds of dust that can pose a traffic hazard.Another customer working on a runwaycontract uses the system to meet the airport’sstrict dust requirements.

Held said the system is easy to maintainand Minnich is a very good company to

work with. Fabick CAT has been doing busi-ness with Minnich Manufacturing since1984 and they’ve found that they are alwaysvery accommodating in customizing the sys-tems to meet the needs of Fabick CAT’s cus-tomers. Held went on to say that Minnich isgood at listening to their needs and is alwaysquick to respond. Held also explained thatalthough Fabick CAT has two Minnich rigsthat they rent, one has the dust collectionsystem and the other doesn’t. Their cus-tomers definitely prefer the machine with thedust collection system.

To test the dust collection system, a Minnich A-5SCW dowel pin drill equipped withthe dust collection system is placed in a tent with air quality monitors set up at var-ious intervals around the machine.

NIOSH’s Ken Mead (L) and Alan Echtcheck the air quality monitors duringthe dust control system testing.

Spending and Its Effect on Construction EmploymentYet from the crucible of this recession,

some painful lessons about job creation mayhave been learned. There is a fresh conver-sation about the comparative value of gov-ernment versus public sector jobs and per-haps a new understanding of “job creation.”

Spending and EmploymentThere have been no shortage of efforts to

spur construction — and construction hiring— but they have been manifestly unsuccess-ful. The most prominent was the AmericanRecovery and Reinvestment Act. The so-called stimulus bill was a $787 billion spend-ing initiative, with approximately $100 bil-lion of that earmarked for construction.

The Obama administration and supportersin Congress promoted the bill as a relativequick fix for the industry because emphasiswas placed on “shovel-ready jobs.” Thisreferred to projects that already were clearedby the various pre-construction agencies andlacked only funding. What wasn’t fundedearly was expected to continue to keep con-tractors cranking up their equipment foryears to come.

It hasn’t worked as well as hoped. Inresponse to a recent Associated GeneralContractors survey, only 28 percent of con-tractors and industry suppliers and distribu-tors said the stimulus was “very or some-what effective.” Nearly half — 47 percent— said it “neither helped nor hurt” and 11percent said it had a negative impact. Therest didn’t have an opinion.

This lukewarm response to the stimuluswithin the industry reflects a generally nega-tive view of the overall stimulus among allAmericans. This is significant because theperception of middling success or failure ofthe stimulus makes it less likely that leader-ship will spend billions more on another one.

Consequently, when President Obamathis late summer proposed a $50 billion“bold new vision” — notably not called a“stimulus” — for transportation infrastruc-ture including highways, railways and air-ports, the reaction was muted. Industry asso-ciations generally praised the initiative butadded that what really was needed was pas-sage of a multi-year successor to the so-called SAFETEA-LU highway bill thatexpired a year ago and has been extendedperiodically to keep funds flowing.

One prominent dissenter to the president’sproposal was Florida Republican Rep. JohnMica, the ranking minority member of theHouse Transportation and InfrastructureCommittee. He is the probable committeechairman should the House majority switchto Republican after November’s elections.

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

7. “While proposing to spend more on infra-

structure in another stimulus effort maysound like the administration is doing some-thing about jobs, in fact only 32 percent ofthe infrastructure funding approved 18months ago in the first stimulus has beenspent,” he said. “Projects continue to bebogged down by bureaucracy and red tape.”

Aless harsh view is that, while many proj-ects are not in progress, most are on theverge of starting. John Horsley of theAmerican Association of State Highway andTransportation Officials, which is “highlysupportive” of the administration’s newplan, estimated that 90 percent of stimulus-funded transportation projects are under con-tract.

Employment Bang for BucksWhat has become apparent in all this con-

joining of spending and jobs is that theredoes not seem to be a strict correlationbetween money spent and jobs created.Many assertions are made about the linkage,but they are all pretty shaky, except in theabstract. Economists argue that, theoretical-ly, a pool of money of a certain size will cre-ate a certain number of jobs. In reality, nosuch hard-and-fast cause-and-effect relation-ship seems to exist.

The U.S. Department of Commerce hasestimated that each $1 million expended onroad construction produces 63 jobs — 13crewmembers at the job site, 13 vendors and37 in related service industry positions.Interpolating that number, it follows that $1billion would create 63,000 jobs, more orless. A $50 billion infrastructure spend,therefore, would create more than 3 millionjobs, which would be a healthy reboundindeed.

Top-end projections aside, the numbersplugged in at the lower end have to be skep-tically received. There seems to be no agree-ment on a formula, which suggests that theroot numbers aren’t well founded. The num-bers, incidentally, all reflect the consensusthat spending on construction results in hir-ing of work crews, hiring at supporting com-panies and hiring elsewhere in the economyas a consequence of the expenditure ofmoney by the first two categories of employ-ees. The three categories of benefits are com-monly referred to as direct, indirect andinduced.

Using that premise, a U.S. Department ofTransportation study earlier this decade con-cluded that 47,000 jobs are created by theexpenditure of $1 billion. That is 16,000fewer jobs than the previously mentionedDepartment of Commerce’s formula wouldproduce but is the number that some presi-dential candidates relied on in formulatingposition papers during the 2008 campaign.

However, there are other numbers. AnAssociation of Equipment Manufacturerspolicy statement declares that 35,000 jobsare created from each $1 billion. Yet postedelsewhere on the AEM Web site is a jobsstatement by AEM President Dennis Slater;he cited a DOT study in declaring that30,000 jobs result from a $1 billion expendi-ture.

Two decades ago, the Bureau of LaborStatistics said a billion dollars would create24,000 jobs for a year. Last year, AlexCarrick, a Canadian economist, concludedthat $1 billion created 20,000 jobs. Dippingslightly lower is the Heritage Foundationthink tank; in 2009, it cited another U.S.DOT report in which researchers concludedthat a mere 19,500 jobs would arise fromexpenditure of $1 billion.

Ronald Utt of the Heritage Foundationsaid the widely varying numbers are all mis-leading because they are based on a falsepremise. Utt argued in a background paper atthe time the stimulus package was beingdebated that unless the $1 billion “appearsout of nowhere as if it were manna fromheaven,” the net creation of jobs is closer tozero. That’s because each $1 billion in fund-ing is taken from somewhere else in theeconomy, thus robbing that area of its fund-ing with a resulting slowdown in work andhiring. When the $1 billion is “new money,”that is, borrowed money, the offsetting lossof jobs elsewhere is merely deferred untilpayback time.

In sum, precisely how much employmentresults from massive spending packages isnot at all clear. Furthermore, it should benoted that none of the formulations stray intothe locution of “jobs saved or created,” anObama administration construct that isalmost impossible to prove or disprove.

Private Sector Versus Public JobsNot all jobs are created equal. For exam-

ple, some make-work construction positionsare funded just to get money into the econo-my, as was the case with the Works ProgressAdministration of the Franklin DelanoRoosevelt era. How far government shouldtiptoe down that path is the question, for atthe far end of the path nothing of real valueis created besides a paycheck. Example:Paying someone to dig a hole and then fill itagain is in itself not of much lasting value.So the debate among Keynesian economistsand their conservative counterparts is partlyabout how much value should be expected inreturn for a government wage.

The wider dispute is about governmentjobs versus private sector employment.President Obama said in 2009 that 3 millionnew jobs would be created through the stim-ulus bill, “more than 80 percent of them inthe private sector.” Senate Minority Leader

Mitch McConnell was not impressed. Hereportedly responded to the president with aquestion: “Well, do we really want to create20 percent of the jobs in the public sector?That would be 600,000 new governmentjobs.”

John Palatiello is president of theBusiness Coalition for Fair Competition, anorganization of businesses, associations andtaxpayer groups. The coalition argues thatbillions of dollars — $27 billion, to be exact— would be saved were designated govern-ment employee functions opened to compet-itive bidding. Palatiello said the best govern-ment policy always “recognizes that realeconomic growth and job creation is in theprivate sector, and emphasizes that govern-ment should not compete with its citizensbut should rely on the private sector to themaximum extent possible.”

The Obama administration has not beenopen to this idea. Rather, it has modifiedguidelines so that more kinds of work can bereserved for government agencies. It proba-bly is no coincidence that, since the inaugu-ration of the current administration, privatesector employment has decreased by 3.3million and government employment hasrisen by some 34,000, according to the busi-ness coalition.

Palatiello’s group is leading the charge toreduce the federal payroll through outsourc-ing of thousands of jobs. Specifically, it hascalled for the administration to declare amoratorium on government insourcing.

In August, Palatiello talked to DanielGordon, the administrator of the Office ofFederal Procurement Policy. Gordon toldhim the federal government only insourcesunder three circumstances:

1) When an activity is so inherently gov-ernmental in nature that it should not havebeen contracted out in the first place;

2) When activity is so critical innature that the agency has no in-house capa-bility to adequately award, manage andoversee the contract; or

3) When a detailed cost analysis hasbeen performed and the agency canunequivocally quantify the savings thatwould be achieved.

Gordon told Palatiello the agency wouldwelcome any examples of jobs insourced inconflict with the guidelines. The first weekof September, Palatiello obliged, providingGordon with 17 examples. In all, the coali-tion believes that some 850,000 federalemployees are doing work that might betterbe done by private sector employees.

The Construction Industry Round Table isa founding member of the coalition and fullysupportive of the call to reduce insourcing.Round Table President Mark Casso citedseveral areas of commerce where contrac-

Historic South Dakota Bridge Gets Needed RehabilitationThe bridge, which was originally built

and fabricated as a four-span bridge in 1925by Missouri Valley Bridge & Iron Works ofLeavenworth, Kan., at an estimated cost of$303,623, is comprised of four 336-ft.(102.4 m) riveted Pennsylvania throughtruss spans. The double-barreled throughtruss bridge was reconstructed in 1953 as adouble-barreled five span bridge incorporat-ing five spans from a bridge at Wheeler, S.D.

Currently, there are load limits for trucksand speed limits of 25 mph. About 2,000vehicles travel the bridge each day.

Cost also was a consideration whendeciding if the structure should be rehabili-tated, Brandner said, “Cost-wise there is notmuch difference between keeping the oldstructure and constructing new. The localpeople voted and overwhelmingly wanted tokeep the original structure, partially becauseit is a historic landmark.”

Original bids in 2008 were rejectedbecause the cost of materials was $7 millionover the engineer’s estimate of $21 million,Brandner said. The materials cost was inflat-ed because the cost of steel and concrete in2008 was much higher. Also, the original bidincluded a sidewalk, something local resi-dents requested.

During the redesign, however, the side-walk was eliminated from the plans, not onlybecause of the cost but because of the addi-tional weight it would impose on the bridge.The estimated cost to add the sidewalk was$5 million.

“The trusses can only carry so much loadand so an additional truss system would havebeen needed to suspend a sidewalk on theoutside of the truss to carry that dead load,”Brandner said. “Without the sidewalk thematerials cost was reduced to about $15 mil-lion.”

The South Dakota Department ofTransportation and prime contractor HeavyConstructors Inc., of Rapid City, S.D., beganwork in early July 2009 with a completiondate of Aug. 1, 2011.

Work consists of removing the existingbridge deck, removing the existing paintfrom the truss members, repairing or replac-ing rusted steel, repainting the trusses,repainting the concrete piers and replacingthe bridge deck. By Dec. 1, 2010, work shebe progressed enough to reopen the bridge totraffic; the bridge was closed to traffic whenwork began. Traffic is rerouted to anotherbridge on the south side of Chamberlain onInterstate 90.

To upgrade the structure, plans includeplacement of new floor beams, new stringersand pouring new concrete decking. The newdeck will match the depth of the old deck,which is about 7 to 7.5 in. (17.8 to 19 cm)thick.

Currently, removal of the existing deck istaking place and requires a lot of hand labor.Crews are using jackhammers on skid steers,but have to remove some of pier because it isinfiltrated with road salt.

“It is pretty labor intensive,” Brandnersaid.

Since the work takes place over water, allthe concrete from the deck removal has to becontained.

“Contractors have what I call a laundryshoot, which is an 18-inch polyethyleneplastic pipe that takes the broken concreteonto the barge,” he said.

However, when the wind is too strong thesystem cannot be used because no debris isallowed to land in the water. So there is a lotof shoveling into 5-gallon buckets and plac-ing them on skid steers to be hauled away.While working this winter, much of thedebris was removed by hand, due to numer-ous windy days.

Crews are using cranes and excavators forthe approach portion of the bridge becausethey are working from land. Man lifts arebeing used to place the floor beams, which isa 4-wheel vehicle with a boom that extends

Painting contractor Rainbow Inc., of Minneapolis, Minn., sets up a work platformfor use in the removal and repainting process of the Chamberlain Truss Bridge inChamberlain, S.D., over the Missouri River in the south-central part of the state.

Crews with Heavy Constructors Inc., of Rapid City, S.D., are replacing every third floor beam on each truss to strengthen thestructure to allow for heavier vehicles to cross; the other two beams will remain.

The Case 400 Series 3 line of skid steerloaders feature powerful engines, a roomy,comfortable cab and improved serviceabili-ty, according to the manufacturer.

Clean-burning, Tier III certified enginepower is available on the Case 410, 420,430, 435, 440, 445, 450 and 465 skids steers.Net horsepower for the line ranges from 57to 83 (42 to 62 kW).

The 410 Series 3 is powered by an ISM2.2-L turbocharged engine. The 420, 430,435 and 445 Series 3 machines boast Case3.2-L turbocharged engines. The 440, 450,and 465 Series 3 skid steer loaders are pow-ered by a 4.5-L turbocharged Case engine.

In addition to Tier III certification, theseengines provide improved torque, whichincreases performance across the line.

Comfort in The Cab“Operator comfort is a big factor in pro-

ductivity,” said Jim Hughes, Case brandmarketing manager. “That’s why Case isalways striving to improve the cab and oper-ator’s platform when designing and upgrad-ing models.”

The cabs available for all Case Series 3models feature a 7-percent increase in head-room and 6-percent increase in lap-barwidth, along with improved forward, side,rear and overhead visibility. The 435, 445,450 and 465 Series 3 models offer a 20-per-cent increase in front glass area, while the410, 420, 430 and 440 Series 3 units recordan 81-percent increase.

On the interior, a suspension seat comesstandard, while a cushioned lap bar with armrest and ergonomically designed controlhandles provide more comfort and spacewhen operating the machines. The parking

brake has been relocated to the handle, andtext labels for switches make the environ-ment more user-friendly. The foot throttlealso is standard on all models, allowingoperators to easily control RPMs. The handthrottle was relocated on the Series 3 410,420, 430 and 440 to be the same as the larg-er models. Also standard on the machinesare the headliner, backup alarm and horn,footrest, 12v power plug, storage tray andcup holder.

On the exterior, side lighting provides fullvisibility to the sides during nighttime oper-ation. A standard overhead window withmore punch-outs than previous models pro-vides enhanced visibility to the loader armswhen the bucket is in the raised position. Theredesigned loader tower profile provides bet-ter visibility while operating. Ergonomicallydesigned grab handles provide easieregress/ingress to the machines.

Ease of Service The Case 400 Series 3 skid steers feature

improved oil and fuel filter access, whichhelps avoid spills and speed up oil changes.Awide-fin side-by-side radiator and oil cool-er improves cooling of the machines. A no-maintenance fan belt on the 420, 430, 435and 445 Series 3 models is a plus, while anautomatic belt tensioner on the 440, 450 and465 maximizes uptime because the belt doesnot need to be adjusted. Battery-disconnectand remote-jumpstart terminals are standardon all models, with the exception of the 410and 420.

All Case 400 Series 3 skid steer modelsare built to start in colder temperatures. Alarger, 1125 CCA battery (32 percent morepowerful than previous models) and glow

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

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

Single-location daily service checksremain a hallmark of the line, with sightgauges for checking hydraulic and coolantlevels, a dipstick for checking engine oil lev-els and the air filter all located in the back ofthe machine. Easy-tilt ROPS providesaccess to major components for service.

Pilot Controls Available for All Models

Pilot controls are available on all eightCase skid steer models. Case pilot controlsfor all models are available from the factoryin either “H” or ISO patterns.

Factory-supplied accessory kits also areavailable through Case dealers to perma-nently change the pattern from H to ISO orvice versa.

With the H pattern, which is familiar toexperienced Case operators, the operatoruses the left-hand control to operate the leftdrive motor as well as to raise and lower theloader arms. The right-hand controller isused to operate the right drive motor and thebucket curl and dump. The H pattern givesthe operator independent control of the

ground drives to position the machine withgreater precision. This is especially helpfulwhen performing tasks such as fine grading.

With the ISO pattern, the drive functionsare in the left controller, and the loaderarm/bucket functions are in the right con-troller. This allows for one-handed operationand is prevalent on non-Case machines.

Options for Increased Comfort,Convenience and PerformanceA variety of options are available for all

models, including deluxe instrument panelwith keyless start, road lights with turn sig-nals, and a radio with MP3 player. Optionalair conditioning is now available on the Case410 and 420 Series 3 units, as well as thelarger models.

Another feature is a deluxe cloth heatedseat with lumbar support, which is availableon units with a deluxe cab for operatorsworking in cold climates.

A single-point lift hook is available on the410, 420, 430, and 440 Series 3 models tofacilitate craning these models up or downinto building sites.

Other options include proportional auxil-iary controls, a detent switch that does nothave to be held down for two-speed opera-tion, a demolition door with mar guard, aninterior rearview mirror and strobe lights.Optional removable cab windows and solidflex tires also are available.

Population Increases Risk Factors— right around the life expectancy for steel pipes. Itwas part of a transmission line that in one section hadan “unacceptably high” risk of failure. And it was ina densely populated area.

The blast was the latest warning sign in a series ofdeadly infrastructure failures in recent years, includ-ing a bridge collapse in Minneapolis and a steampipe explosion that tore open a Manhattan street in2007. The steam pipe that ruptured was more than 80years old.

The section of pipeline that ruptured was built in1956, back when the neighborhood contained only ahandful of homes. It is a scenario that NationalTransportation Safety Board vice chairmanChristopher Hart has seen play out throughout thenation, as suburbs have expanded.

“That’s an issue we’re going to have to look on abigger scale — situations in which pipes of some agewere put in before the dense population arrived andnow the dense population is right over the pipe,” hesaid.

Thousands of pipelines nationwide fit the samebill, and they frequently experience mishaps. Federalofficials have recorded 2,840 significant gas pipelineaccidents since 1990, more than a third causingdeaths and significant injuries.

Hart said the tragedy in San Bruno could pushother states to begin tougher inspections of theirlines.

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

Congress passed a law in 2002 that required utili-ties for the first time to inspect pipelines that runthrough heavily populated areas. In the first fiveyears, more than 3,000 problems were identified —a figure Weimer said underscores the precariouspipeline system.

Even when inspections are done and problemsfound, Kessler said, there is no requirement for com-panies to say if or what kind of repairs were made.And Weimer added industry lobbyists have sincepushed to relax that provision of the law so inspec-tions could occur once a decade or once every 15years.

Other critics complain that the pipeline plans aredrafted in secret with little opportunity for the publicto speak out about the process.

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials SafetyAdministration is the federal regulatory arm thatenforces rules for the safe operation of the nation’spipeline system, and has direct authority over inter-state pipelines. Most state public utility agencieshave adopted the federal rules and carry out inspec-tions and enforcement of pipelines running insidestate boundaries.

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

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

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

California regulators say current rules are writtenin a way that relies on industry to report problemsand set timetables for repair.

“We’re set up to provide an incentive and a deter-rent and to make sure they follow the rules, but wegenerally avoid telling them how to run their sys-

tem,” said Julie Halligan, deputy director of con-sumer protection and safety at the California PublicUtilities Commission. “They can’t endlessly deferthings and get away with it, because we’ll be lookingafter the fact to see what they’ve done.”

The challenge of ensuring pipeline safety is com-pounded by the sheer enormity of the nation’s natu-ral gas network. The federal pipeline agency said theUnited States has more than 2 million mi. ofpipelines — enough to circle the earth about 100times.

The agency has only about 100 federal inspectorsnationwide to ensure compliance, meaning there isno guarantee violators will be caught.

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

Potential safety threats have grown as the pipelinenetwork has expanded and age takes its toll on exist-ing infrastructure. More than 60 percent of thenation’s gas transmission lines are 40 years old orolder.

Most of them are made of steel, with older vari-eties prone to corrosion. The more problematic pipesare made of cast-iron. A few places in Pennsylvaniastill had wooden gas pipes as of last year, accordingto officials there.

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

Those areas contain about 7 percent of the300,000 mi. of gas transmission lines in the country,or roughly 21,000 mi. of pipeline. The category hasnothing to do with the safety of pipelines, and wascreated to put the greatest emphasis on the most pop-ulous regions.

Industry watchdogs have criticized utilities for notbeing willing to spend the money necessary to avoidexplosions like the one in California. The cost toreplace lengthy stretches of pipelines can exceed $30million.

“They [PG&E] will prioritize and put off work tomaintain their level of earnings,” said Bill Marcus, aCalifornia attorney whose firm consults nationallywith consumer protection agencies and nonprofits ongas rate cases. “To some extent that’s not bad, but itis concerning when those decisions endanger publichealth or the environment.”

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

PG&E President Chris Johns said the pipe thatruptured was inspected twice in the past year — oncefor corrosion and once for leaks — and the checksturned up no problems.

Asection of pipe connected to the line that explod-ed was built in 1948, and flagged as a problem byPG&E in a memo. PG&E submitted paperwork toregulators that said the section was within “the top100 highest risk line sections” in the utility’s serviceterritory, the document shows.

The fact that it’s in an urbanized area that didn’texist when the pipe was built is emblematic of a big-ger problem nationwide, experts say.

“People have been waiting for a while for this typeof disaster to happen because of expanded construc-tion near pipeline right of ways without adequateprevention,” said Paul Blackburn, a public interestlawyer in Vermillion, S.D.

By Jim SuhrASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

ALTON, Ill. (AP) Politicians on Sept. 17 cast Illinois as a pioneer forbeing the first to roll federal stimulus money into a high-speed passenger railline, claiming that the jobs, tourism and traveler convenience anticipatedfrom the St. Louis-to-Chicago route justifies the $1.1 billion taxpayer tab.

Using an Amtrak locomotive and two passenger cars as a backdrop, Gov.Pat Quinn, U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin and other dignitaries praised the start thismonth of $98 million in upgrades to a 90 mi. stretch of track from Alton, justnortheast of St. Louis, to Lincoln.

That leg, expected to be completed by the end of this year, will eventual-ly tie in to Chicago. Officials said it will cut the travel time between St. Louisand Chicago by 90 minutes, to less than four hours, with trains traveling at110 mph — the Federal Railroad Administration’s qualifying threshold forhigh-speed rail.

That’s a 31-mph improvement over the top speed that most U.S. rail sys-tems now operate, though Amtrak’s 10-year-old Acela Express, which linksBoston and Washington, can hit top speeds of 150 mph.

The high-speed corridor between St. Louis and Chicago should be run-ning by 2012, officials said.

“We want to make sure the whole world knows we’re in a race for high-speed rail,” Quinn said.

The Democrat touted the project as a “mission” and “vision” that lan-guished as a concept for years before construction finally began. Yet some-times, Quinn noted, “the longest journey begins with the first step.”

Quinn, who took over as governor after Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s ouster, isseeking a full term in office this year.

Helping to fund the project is the $1.1 billion in federal stimulus moneythat President Barack Obama’s administration awarded in January toenhance passenger rail service between his hometown of Chicago and St.Louis. Illinois, already grappling with a $13 billion budget gap, is con-tributing $400 million, Quinn said.

Such a project has drawn some skepticism, largely over its taxpayer-cov-ered price tag and concerns that ridership might not meet expectations. InWisconsin, GOP gubernatorial candidates recently promised to stop an $810million project to build a 110-mph rail line between Madison andMilwaukee.

U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, a former Illinois congress-man, has defended the high-speed rail push. He called it an important partof a national rail program that advocates say could rival the interstate high-ways that begun in the Eisenhower era and took decades to complete.

Proponents also have pointed to the demand for Amtrak, which cited animproving economy and high fuel prices as the reason it’s on pace for recordridership this year, carrying a best-ever 13.6 million passengers in the firsthalf of fiscal year 2010.

Last month, Amtrak said ridership on its rail line between Chicago and St.Louis — one of the service’s most popular routes — was up 11 percent overthe last fiscal year. Amtrak said that from October 2009 through July, morethan a half-million passengers made the trip.

Durbin, who with many others in his family once worked for the railroad,had little patience with nay-sayers. The senator pointed to the 900 jobs theAlton-to-Lincoln upgrades could create and the roughly 24,000 jobs thatproponents suggest the St. Louis-to-Chicago improvements should gener-ate.

“To the skeptics who said we never should have done it, my question tothem is, ‘What would you do?”’ Durbin said in justifying the federal tax-payer tab. “I know generations to come will have better service fromAmtrak, more reliable service with high-speed rail.”

Toro Introduces Dingo TX 427 Compact Utility LoaderThe Toro Company’s latest additions to its

Dingo compact utility loader family are thenarrow and wide track TX 427 models. BothTX 427 loaders feature a 27-hp (20 kW)Kohler engine that delivers added torque forincreased pulling and digging force. Thesemodels also come standard with a heavy-duty two-stage air cleaner that offersenhanced dust and dirt filtration, even whenthe engine is working in the harshest envi-ronments.

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

“We’ve taken the Dingo’s proven tracked,walk-behind design and unmatchedhydraulic power to the next level with theTX 427 models,” said Greg Lawrence, mar-keting product manager of the Toro Dingocompact utility loader family. “We’ve sim-plified our lineup by offering one model ineither narrow or wide track design, beefed itup with a more powerful engine, andincreased the power-to-weight ratio forimproved job site efficiency.”

Featuring four independent hydraulicpumps, TX 427 compact utility loadersdeliver 16.9 gal. (64 L) per minute (gpm) offlow to each track, 11.4 gpm (43 Lpm) to theauxiliary hydraulics, and 6 gpm (22.7 Lpm)

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

Both TX 427 units are compatible withToro’s multitude of compact utility loaderattachments — making them well-suited todig, haul, plant or build almost anything.

“Everything our customers love about ourDingo loaders remains the same,” saidLawrence, “including their versatility. Fromaugering, earthmoving, tilling, and trenching

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

Weighing just 2,006 lbs. (910 kg) with astandard bucket, the TX 427 narrow trackloader has a rated operating capacity of 535lbs. (242 kg), 35 percent of tip capacity. Itsoverall length of 92 in. (233 cm) includingbucket and width of 33.7 in. (85 cm) allow itto work in the tightest places and easily passthrough a standard 36-in. (91 cm) gate. Also,the 5.9 in. (15 cm) wide tracks on the TX427 narrow track model distribute a mere 5.1

psi of ground pressure, so operators can getthe traction they need without tearing up turfduring operation, according to the manufac-turer.

The TX 427 wide track model weighs2,186 lbs. (991 kg) with a standard bucket,and it offers the same rated operating capac-ity as the narrow track model at 535 lbs. (35percent of tip capacity). With an overalllength of 92 in. including bucket, thismodel’s width is increased to 41 in. (104 cm)to accommodate the wide track set up but isstill compact enough to fit through a 42 in.(106 cm) gate. With 3.5 psi ground pressure,this unit offers a light footprint and improvedflotation for better traction in sandy or wetground conditions.

“The gas-powered TX 427 offers a highpower-to-weight ratio,” said Lawrence.“Competitive models that offer the samehorsepower are much heavier machines,which means it takes operators more energyto move the units around the job site and cancause more damage to the ground. Our TX427 compact loaders offer powerful per-formance that allows customers to be moreproductive — getting more done in lesstime.”

New Holland C190 Compact Track Loader Gets the JobDoneThe New Holland C190 compact track

loader combines the reach and lift capacityof the Super Boom lift arm design alongwith the flotation, traction, and stability oftracks.

The C190 is available with two trackoptions – a 15.7-in. (40 cm) track forenhanced flotation and additional tractionand a 17.7-in. (45 cm) track for maximumflotation on sensitive turf.

The C190 compact track loader lowersoperating costs with fast, easy servicing. Allmajor service points can be easily reached,even with the boom down. Rear access doorprovides quick and easy access to checkengine oil, hydraulic oil, radiator coolant andfuel fill. Routine air filter maintenance issimple with an easy to reach, side-out ele-ment. If major repairs are ever necessary, theentire boom and cab assembly lifts up andtilts forward for unobstructed engine andtransmission access, according to the manu-facturer.

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

“The vertical lift Super Boom design pro-vides more forward reach than radial liftdesigns, which allows the C190 to loadmaterial into the center of a truck,” the man-

ufacturer said. “This allows the operator tomore effectively fill high-sided trucks andhoppers.”

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

attachments without leaving the cab. EveryNew Holland compact track loader attach-ment is interchangeable with skid steer load-ers and compact wheel loaders.

The C190 features a turbocharged engine

rated at 90 gross hp (67 kW), a bucket break-out force of 7,670 lbs. (3,480 kg) and anoperating weight of 9,820 lbs. (4,454 kg)

JCB North America Launches New515-40 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 andweighs 7,672 lbs. (3,480 kg). To achieve the lowest possibleoverall height, JCB developed the 515-40 with an off-set sin-gle-spine main frame. As a result, the machine boasts a full-size cab with both easy accessibility and plenty of space forthe operator, according to the manufacturer.

According to Chris Giorgianni, general manager of prod-uct marketing at JCB North America’s headquarters inSavannah, Ga., the extremely compact 515-40 can be effec-tively used at sites that could previously only be accessed byskid steer loaders.

“Our new 515-40 is small enough to provide the con-struction, agricultural and industrial markets with the manybenefits offered by our telescopic handler range,” Giorgiannisaid. “This machine brings the maneuverability and power ofthe telescopic handler to nurseries, small farms, landscapecontractors, building supply yards, warehouses and manyother applications that can benefit from its 8 feet 6 inches offorward reach and 13 feet 2 inches of loading height.”

With a turning radius of just 9 ft. (2.7 m) and very com-pact dimensions, the JCB 515-40 can maneuver in even thesmallest work environments. Equipped with 4-wheel steer-ing, 4-wheel drive, a hydrostatic transmission andenhanced ground clearance, the machine can easi-ly traverse the challenging outdoor conditionsoften found at a landscaping job site or on the farm.Its 4-wheel drive system and hydrostatic transmission aredesigned to get the most power to each wheel. This isachieved 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 onthe yard or running off-road in wet conditions, according tothe 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 liftheight of 13 ft. 2 in. (4 m). This combination of featuresallows the JCB 515-40 to maximize storage space insidesmall buildings, enables it to load a truck from one side andeven grants it access to the inside of a standard container toload it from one end.

“The 515-40 comes standard with a universal skid steerquick attach, opening it up to a vast range of attachments,”Giorgianni added. “This extra functionality combined withease of operation makes the machine an ideal multi-taskerfor 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 airconditioning and a deluxe suspension seat. Low noise leveland both ROPS and FOPS protection provide additionalhealth and safety benefits. Access to the cab is made easy bya low-level step and flat cab floor, ensuring easy entry andexit for the driver.

The 515-40 can be used at sites that could previously only be accessed by skid steer loaders.

‘Labor Intensive’ Under Way for S.D. Truss Bridgeout to place the floor beams, Brandnerexplained.

Every third floor beam on the truss isbeing replaced to allow for heavy vehicles.The other two beams will remain. The ideais that the load transfer will occur over thetop of new floor beams. The back section ofthe floor beam was removed using anextend-a-boom. Here crews are removingrivets and placing a bolt in the same holes.

As of early May, workers were replacingthousands of rivets with bolts because theyare stronger, but are encountering some dif-ficulties lining up the holes.

“When placing the bolts we can’t workthe bolt at all, creating some difficultiesworking the bolt through. And when we’reremoving the rivets, we have to ensure wedon’t damage the plates,” Brandner said.

The bridge includes five sections of truss-es in the center and two approach bridgesthat come up to it. The total length is justover 2,000 ft. (609.6 m) long from abutmentto abutment. The truss section of the bridgeis about 1,500 ft. (457.2 m) long.

The bridge starts on west side with abut-ment 1 and continues across to abutment 12.There are 10 piers in the water from pier 2through pier 11. The approach bridge on thewest side extends from abutment 1 to pier 5and will require 481.5 yds. (440.2 m) ofbridge deck concrete. There are 10 separatetrusses, accounting for traffic in both direc-tions, all built in 1925 and transported fromanother structure that was in place at thetime, Brandner explained. The truss sectionof the bridge has one lane of traffic in eachdirection, while the approach bridge has twolanes of head-to-head traffic.

When the bridge was reconstructed in1953 as a five span, “six trusses were floatedin on barges from 70 miles down streamfrom Old Wheeler Bridge. The old piers arestill in the water,” Brandner said.

These six trusses are smaller than theother four, which are from Chamberli, just acouple of hundred feet away. The six trusssections extend from pier 5 through pier 8,spanning about 258.7 ft. (78.9 m) and willrequire 871 cu. yds. (666 cu m) of bridgedeck concrete.

Trusses spanning piers 8 and 9 extendfrom pier 8 to pier 10 are longer trusses at338 ft. (103 m) each, requiring 750 cu. yds.(573.4 cu m) of bridge deck concrete,Brandner said. The approach bridge frompier 10 to abutment 12 will require 275 cu.yds. (210.3 cu m) of concrete.

The width of the bridge will remain thesame since the piers are not being replaced;work is only taking place on the upper twofeet in order to tie it into pier caps, Brandnersaid.

“So we’re removing the top two feet and

replacing it with new concrete. From edge toedge of the concrete, the bridge measures20.8 feet in the truss section, leaving 18 feetof clear roadway.”

The width of the approach bridges is 49.9in. (126.7 cm) from edge to edge. Fromguard rail to guard rail the distance is 47 ft.(14.3 m)

Deck pours will begin with just anapproach bridge. Then, shortly after, pourson the truss section of bridge will begin,Brandner said. Concrete on the approachbridges will be slightly thicker than thebridge deck at 8 in. (20.3 cm) thick. Crewsare not worrying about dead load caused bythe extra thickness because the spans areshorter on the approaches. On approachesconcrete pours will be done over the fullwidth.

Concrete on the truss section will bepoured in 50-ft. (15.2 m) sections over thefull width in an alternating pattern where one50 ft. section will be poured and the next sec-tion will be skipped, in order to create theproper load.

“Then we will come back and pour theundone sections,” Brandner said.

The 50-ft. lengths extend from each thirdfloor beam, which is the edge of the stringer.

“It hasn’t been decided if the pour will bedone with a barge and a pump truck, or if itwill be easier to use a slick line. The con-tractor will determine the best method whenthe time comes,” Brandner said.

The bridge also has to be painted, but firstthe existing lead-based paint has to beremoved. Since crews are working overwater, a lead containment system is needed.Rainbow Inc., of Minneapolis, Minn., thepaint contractor put up a safe span, whichinvolves running cables from pier to pier sothere are about 12 cables from one pier to thenext, Brandner explained. Metal forms areplaced over the cables so workers are able towalk on a platform while replacing rivets.

The work platform also is part of a con-tainment system. Tarps extend from the plat-form over the trusses and attach to the otherside of the work platform.

“We have to contain even the dust fromthe lead,” Brandner said. “The tarps are sim-ilar to parachute material so they completelyseal off the area, creating a vacuum system

under the tarps so the inside of the contain-ment is under negative pressure so none ofthe dust leaves the containment.”

The bridge is to open on Dec. 1, 2010, andit will remain open until April 15, when thepainting contractor returns to finish thepainting, depending on the temperature andthe humidity level.

The safe span seems like a time saverwhen working on the structure, rather thanusing barges. It is more user-friendly to thecontractor, enabling him to get the workdone, Brandner said.

The bolting, weather and setting up thesafe span are causing the project to becomeslightly behind schedule.

Currently crews are adjusting the sched-ule to finish the work by the completiondates.

“The interim completion date isDecember 1 when the bridge is to be open totraffic,” Brandner said. “We’re working hardto get to that point. We have the whole sum-mer and part of next fall to get there. It alldepends on the weather and any unforeseenproblems that can cause difficulties.”

Rehabilitation of the Chamberlain Truss Bridge is very labor intensive as much of the debris has to be shoveled into 5-gallonbuckets to ensure nothing lands in the water. Buckets are then placed on skid steers and hauled away.

Deere & Co. Sells Its WindEnergy Business for $900MBy Christopher LeonardAP BUSINESS WRITER

ST. LOUIS (AP) Energy companyExelon Corp. said Aug. 31 it will pay $900million for the wind energy assets of manu-facturer Deere & Co., potentially signalingan active merger and acquisition periodahead for the power industry.

With energy prices persistently low due toa grinding economic recovery, stakes in thepower industry have begun to shift. Powergeneration facilities like Deere’s massivewind farms are a bargain for big firms likeExelon who have cash on hand.

“Now is a very good time to buy windassets in general because prices are so low,”said Matthew Kaplan, senior analyst withIHS Emerging Energy Research. “JohnDeere at one point said they were going tohold off on the sale because theyweren't seeing the proper prices.”

Exelon’s purchase comes on theheels of other big acquisitions in thepower industry, as companies lookto lock in good deals before anexpected recovery starts to boostprices. Earlier in August, BlackstoneGroup paid $542.7 million to takeHouston’s Dynegy Inc. private. In athree-way deal, Dynegy also soldfour power plants to NRG EnergyInc. for $1.36 billion in cash.

On Aug. 30, Deere said the salewill let it focus on what it does best:building farm equipment. It once saw thewind business as an extension of its agricul-tural work, with projects located in ruralareas.

Deere was involved in project manage-ment and financing, buying much of thehardware used in the wind projects fromIndia’s Suzlon Energy, one of the biggestsuppliers in the world. Deere invested $1 bil-lion over the past five years in the financing,development and ownership of wind energyprojects.

But the wind business is new to Exelon,the nation’s largest operator of nuclearpower plants.

Exelon has been a wholesale marketer ofwind energy in Illinois, Pennsylvania andWest Virginia.

The Deere business brings with it a phys-ical infrastructure that includes 36 complet-ed projects in eight states with an operational

capacity of 735 megawatts. The projects,which will be operated by subsidiary ExelonGeneration Co., could power nearly 184,000homes, according to Energy Department fig-ures.

A number of factors have made Deere’sassets a bargain. Government stimulusmoney that helped expand capacity last yearis running out. While many states haveadopted standards requiring that a certainamount of energy come from renewablesources, Congress has yet to enact a nation-wide standard.

Exelon, however, is well positioned toride out the economic downturn and poten-tially capitalize on alternative energy assetsin the future.

The Chicago company reported profits of$2.7 billion last year.

“Whether harmful emissions are priced or

regulated, our combined capacity of nearly19,000 megawatts of zero-emission wind,solar, hydro, landfill gas and nuclear powerremains a clear competitive advantage thatwill only become more valuable,” saidExelon Chairman and CEO John Rowe.

Exelon expects the acquisition to add toearnings in 2012 and to cash flows in 2013.It is funding the deal with Exelon Generationdebt.

Deere said it will record a $25 millionafter-tax charge in the fourth-quarter. Thesale was not reflected in the company’s $375million fourth-quarter earnings estimatefrom earlier this month.

The initial acquisition is valued at $860million. Deere gets the remaining $40 mil-lion when construction begins on projectsthat are already planned.

The transaction is expected to close by theend of the year.

“Now is a very good time tobuy wind assets in generalbecause prices are so low.”

Construction Group Likely to Seek Higher Gas Tax

Leaders Back Plan to DemolishIndiana Harbor Canal Bridge

EAST CHICAGO, Ind. (AP) Severalnorthwest Indiana leaders said the regionmust accept the state’s plan to demolish abridge that provides a key link to lakefrontcasinos and steel mills. The 1.25-mi., 70-ft.(21 m)-tall bridge that carried Indiana 912over the Indiana Harbor Canal, known local-ly as Cline Avenue Bridge, closed inNovember after a state inspection showedthe span had become dangerously weak.

The state Department of Transportationhas a $75 million plan to demolish the bridgeand reroute traffic to other local roads and afour-lane drawbridge. Cost estimates forbuilding a new bridge topped $150 million,the Northwest Indiana Times reported April25.

The state couldn’t justify spending thatmuch money on a bridge that was being usedby only about 30,000 vehicles per day —about a third of the traffic it was expected tohandle when it was built two decades ago,said Speros Batistatos, CEO of the South

Shore Convention & Visitors Authority, said Batistatos was part of the Cline Avenue

Coalition, which represented mayors, busi-nesses and labor groups. It had recommend-ed in March that a new bridge be built toreplace the condemned span, but Batistatossaid the price tag for a new bridge nullifiedthat recommendation.

“It’s not like if we keep screaming longenough, we will get a bridge,” he said.

The new route would take about 3 min-utes to drive, or as many as 6 minutes duringrush hour, compared to the minute and a halfit took to cross the bridge, according to ThePost-Tribune of Merrillville.

Putting so much money into rebuildingthe bridge would take money out of otherprojects around the state, said Rep. ChetDobis, D-Merrillville.

Mark Maassel, interim president of theNorthwest Indiana Forum economic devel-opment group, said the project wouldenhance local economic development.

By Mike GloverASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) Highwayconstruction advocates said they likely willpress the Iowa Legislature to raise the state’sgasoline tax after more than two decadeswithout an increase.

A coalition of groups also planned toannounce a campaign aimed a convincingCongress to approve more money for trans-portation projects at a time when state offi-cials are hesitant to approve work withoutcertainty about funding.

Scott Newhard, executive vice presidentof Associated General Contractors of Iowa,said his group probably would seek anincrease in the gas tax, last raised in 1989.The group won’t make a final decision untilafter the November elections.

Newhard said his group and others arestill discussing the matter. If they decide toseek an increase, the effort would be sup-ported by a broad array of organizations.

“If we go for one, you’ll see a wholebunch of allies,” said Newhard.

It’s unclear what the upcoming gubernato-rial election would mean for the likelihoodthat a gas tax would be approved.

Republicans have criticized DemocraticGov. Chet Culver for his spending policies,

but Culver last session ended discussionabout a gas tax increase by promising to vetoany such move. GOP gubernatorial candi-date Terry Branstad has campaigned as a fis-cal conservative, but the last gas tax increasewas approved during his earlier tenure asgovernor.

Acoalition of highway construction advo-cates also plans to launch a campaign forincreased transportation spending.

The effort will be led by state Departmentof Transportation head Nancy Richardson,who will be joined by other highway advo-cates.

Andy Warren, vice president of operationsat Associated General Contractors of Iowa,said the federal government is approvingstopgap spending measures to pay for proj-ects, leaving state officials reluctant to com-mit to long-range projects without more cer-tainty about funding.

“This is now starting to cause real prob-lems because state departments aren’t realinterested in making long-term plans withoutthere being some sense of stability at the fed-eral level,” said Warren. “They have to playit very conservative.”

Warren said the coalition will unveil anadvertising campaign that’s part of a nation-al effort to pressure Congress.

Despite Current Economy,Future Job Growth Projected tors could do the job as well and more cost-effectively than government, including envi-ronmental clean-up, military base mainte-nance, civil works — and especially mainte-nance, repair and construction of roads,waterways and buildings.

“Moreover,” Casso said, “any assertionthat insourcing saves money has beendebunked, by no less that Defense SecretaryRobert Gates, who on Aug. 9 admitted, ‘Weweren’t seeing the savings we had hopedfrom insourcing.’”

This ongoing dispute with the federal gov-ernment is separate from long-standing com-plaints of the construction industry aboutstate jobs. The industry complains that statedepartments of transportation around thecountry have employees doing work that theprivate sector can do as well, including engi-neering tasks.

Jobs VariablesThe Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a

19 percent growth in construction jobs overthe next eight years, considerably more thanmost other major industries. Growth isexpected pretty much across the board,including in the heavy and civil constructionareas where construction and repair of high-ways and bridges clearly are needed. TheBureau also predicts a spurt of power trans-mission line construction.

These two areas of building — highwaysand power lines — illustrate a variable inconstruction spending. Some kinds of build-ing work obviously are more labor intensivethan other kinds.

Myrtle Beach, S.C., backers of a proposedInterstate 73 roadway point to a researcheconomist’s estimate of jobs creation.Donald R. Schunk of Coastal CarolinaUniversity predicted last year that the pro-posed new roadway would have some 4,700construction workers on the job on any givenday in the Myrtle Beach region. If figura-tively spread across the approximately 80mi. of the South Carolina segment of I-73,that’s 55 to 60 people working per mile ofnew roadway.

Whereas large-scale power transmissionlines require just 14 construction workers permile of transmission, according to powerindustry researchers. However, the NationalRenewable Energy Laboratory estimatesthat 20,000 mi. of new lines are neededacross the United States, particularly if thepush for wind turbine-generated electricityin the West requires new lines running to theEast Coast. With 14 people working each ofthose 20,000 mi., a sizeable number of con-

struction workers would be packing lunchesand heading off to the job.

Yet lobbyists don’t typically distinguishamong different orders of construction labor.They lobby for an entire transportation bill,for example, as opposed to asking for target-ed capital investment in bridges or runwaysor railways. While this probably is a goodpolitical approach, it does not address prior-ities among worthy projects, nor distinguishbetween needs and wants.

The American Society of Civil Engineershas laid a foundation for breaking the overallproblem of infrastructure construction intosmaller parts, issuing a national grade cardthat evaluates the condition of individualpieces of infrastructure.

Using the 2009 card, one can concludethat bridges, inland waterways, drinkingwater / wastewater systems, levees and roadsare most in need of attention, each receivinga D- from the ASCE. While some other areasfared almost as poorly, they are judged to bein slightly better condition. The result of thegrading process is that construction prioritiesare established.

The Round Table’s Casso was asked iflobbying for individual pieces of capitalmight be more effective in this economic cli-mate. The answer is yes and no.

“In truth, the Round Table does not makeany precise distinction between and amonginfrastructure project types,” he responded.“Rather, it focuses on the need for the feder-al government to target funds and attentionto meaningful ‘signature’ projects or pro-grams that can far exceed the mere invest-ment of funds to impact a greater expanse ofAmerican society, its economy, and even itssecurity.

“These types of ‘major impact projects’can be beneficial short-term investments andhave a lasting high return. As such, theyshould be the focus of at least a portion offuture expenditures managed by the federalgovernment.”

Casso’s organization is working on a“white paper” outlining the request to focuson “meaningful transportation projects.” Italso will call for reform of grant programs sothat obvious areas of highway congestioncan be targeted and consistently funded untilreal correction is achieved. This approach isthe opposite of spreading the money aroundjust to be fair to each congressional districtand Congress to date has shown little incli-nation to adopt it.

Doosan’s DL420 Wheel Loader Sports Tier III EngineWith a bucket capacity of 5.2 cu. yd. (3.9

cu m), the Doosan DL420 articulated wheelloader is designed to take on a wide rangeof material handling tasks from loading andtransporting granular material (such as sandand gravel) to industrial, mining and quar-rying applications. With the addition of theDL420, the Doosan range of articulatedwheel loaders includes eight models withbucket capacities from 1.9 to 6.5 cu. yd.(1.4 to 5 cu m).

The 49,163-lb. (22,300 kg) DL420 ispowered by a 659-cu. in. (10,799 cu cm), 6cylinder turbocharged Cummins QSM11electronically controlled engine with highpressure unit injector system and a moderncombustion system. Emissions are wellbelow Tier III regulatory limits, accordingto the manufacturer.

The engine develops 280 hp (208 kW) at2,000 rpm and offers maximum torque of1,070 ft. lb. at 1,400 rpm for optimal trac-tion and breakout force in loading-trans-port-handling applications.

Depending on the application, the opera-tor can choose between two working modes(standard or economy) for either maximumproductivity or minimum fuel consump-tion.

A robust Z-bar lifting system provides astandard bucket breakout force of 47,210lbs. (21,414 kg), among the highest in itssize class. This results in higher strippingforce and greater productivity when work-ing in hard materials.

The DL420 offers four forward speedranges with maximum speeds of 4, 7.7,11.4, and 23.6 mph (6.4, 12.4, 18.3 and 38kmh), and three reverse speed ranges withmaximum speeds of 4, 7.7 and 11.4 mph.Due to its powerful Cummins engine, theDL420 accelerates to 90 percent of maxi-mum speed in 2.3 seconds. The largerengine also is designed to provide increaseddurability and a longer service life, accord-ing to the manufacturer.

With a 5.2-cu. yd. (4 cu m) bucket, theDL420 has a static tipping load of 39,432lbs. (17,886 kg) at maximum reach with astraight frame and a height at bucket pivotpoint of 14 ft. 3 in. (4.3 m). Equipped witha pin-on bucket with bolt-on cutting edgeand tipped forward at 45 degrees, the dumpheight is 10 ft. 2 in. (3 m) and the dumpreach 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 angleof 40 degrees.

Like all Doosan wheel loaders, theDL420 features a full powershift transmis-sion with manual and automatic modes.Standard limited slip differentials on boththe front and rear axles ensure positive trac-tion in wet or soft conditions.

Hydraulically controlled, multi-plate wetdisc brakes and dual brake circuits providepositive braking power. A spring-applied/hydraulically released (SAHR)parking brake is mounted on the transmis-sion shaft to prevent the loader from rollingafter engine shut down. An optional elec-tric-powered emergency steering systembacks up the hydraulic power steering sys-tem in case of a malfunction and a safetydevice prevents starting the engine whennot in neutral.

The DL420 provides operators withimproved visibility and lower cabin soundlevels. A powerful heating and air condi-tioning system, a roomier cabin, amplestorage space and a comfortable seat alsohelp to reduce operator fatigue. Anti-pitchcontrol provides smoother travel with aloaded bucket. Available as an option is asingle lever control for travel functions andfront-mounted attachments.

A new integrated monitoring system dis-plays information about the loader’s engineand transmission, including service inter-vals for each filter and the engine oil. Themonitoring system also provides servicefault codes to the operator without the needto hook up a PC. Codes can then be report-ed to the dealer’s service technician, savingdiagnostic time and reducing expense. Inaddition, the integrated monitoring systemallows the transmission to be tuned by theoperator without the assistance of amechanic.

The DL420 also features a vehicle con-trol unit that optimizes loader performanceby controlling engine, transmission andhydraulic system variables.

To reduce fuel consumption and lowernoise levels, the DL420 loader features ahydraulically driven, variable speed enginefan with an electronic thermostat that con-stantly monitors engine coolant and trans-mission oil temperatures. The fan directioncan be reversed from the cabin to quicklyclean out the radiator in dusty environ-ments. Also, the hydraulic fan swings out toeasily clean the cooler group.

All routine maintenance on the DL420can be performed from ground level.Centralized hydraulic check ports and easi-ly accessible drain valves for engine oil andcoolant simplify routine maintenance.Remote greasing lubrication ports allowfront pins to be lubed from the outside ofthe machine. The transmission oil fillerpipe is located near the articulation joint foreasy access and sight gauges for hydraulicoil and coolant levels allow easy dailychecks while reducing the risk of contami-nants entering the systems.

SECT IONPavingGOMACO Introduces 5400 Series Mold, Bar Inserter

GOMACO Corporation’s5400 series paving moldincludes a rear-loading,front-inserting 5400 seriesbar inserter, along with otherbar placement attachments.The new 5400 series moldand bar inserter were intro-duced internationally atBauma 2010 in Munich,Germany.

The mold, with a 54-in.(137 cm) finishing length,has a new “box” design anddurable 0.5 in. (1.2 cm)paving skin for structuralintegrity. It features a spread-er plow, independent of themold, or an optional auger tospread the concrete acrossthe paving width. A newlydesigned strike-off is mount-ed to the paver’s mainframe,independent of the mold.The strike-off has a modulardesign with a wedge-locksystem for easy widthchanges. It has hydrauliccrown adjustment and up to10 in. (25.4 cm) of hydraulicheight adjustment.

The new mold also fea-tures hydraulic verticalhinged sideplates (VHS),self-contained to the insideof the mold, allowing mini-mum track clearance.

The mold was built to be easy to assem-ble, with inserts that are bolted together withfront and rear alignment pins. The mold ismounted to the paver with pivoting beams toeliminate any stress points.

Vertically adjusting mounts on the moldallow precise leveling of the mold to thepaver. A front and rear T-bar at the top of themold adds structural integrity and is utilizedfor attaching paving accessories. A newvibrator mounting tube attaches to the T-baron the mold and can now be vertically raisedor lowered to accommodate paving condi-

tions or transporting needs. The mold also was built to be versatile.

The 5400 series mold will have telescopingend sections with 12 in. (30.5 cm) of widthvariation on each side of the paver. The tran-sition adjustor is self-supported and drivenwith a 3.5 in. (9 cm) ACME screw for up toa 6 in. (15.2 cm) crown. Split, pressure-com-pensated sideplates allow a standard pavingdepth from 0 to 24 in. (0 to 61 cm). The moldalso will be available with edge slump, bat-ter adjustment and optional tamper bar.

The new 5400 series bar inserter offers

ease of use with rear loading from thepaver’s work bridge, while the bar is insert-ed in front of the mold. It features a bar load-ing chain system with bars traveling in a flat,straight path.

The bar insertion process and timing iscontrolled by GOMACO’s new G+ system.The new inserter mounts to the 5400 seriesmold’s T-bar, where it can allow on-the-gocrown changes while maintaining a constantbar depth. Individual depth guides on theright and left side of the bar inserter keep thebars parallel to the top of the slab during

insertion. The system is able to accommodate num-

ber 3 to number 8 diameter bars between 20to 40 in. (50.8 to 101.6 cm) in length, andinserts the bars up to 7.5 in. (19 cm) deepinto the concrete slab. The bar bundles areloaded into a bar box that is mounted to thepaver’s rear T-rail for easy access and load-ing of the bar magazine. The bar loadingchain system and bar magazine are capableof holding up to 50 bars.

New Smooth Edge Tamper Simplifies Vibratory CompactionThe Smooth Edge Tamper is an automated replacement of

the hand tamper that offers vibratory compaction on pavementsurfaces that were previously too long, steep or narrow to becompacted by machine or by hand. Manufactured in the UnitedStates, the Smooth Edge Tamper enables contractors to com-pact the edges of commercial paving installations that were pre-viously left un-tamped, according to the manufacturer.

Features include a lightweight design that provides instantmobility for one worker compacting potholes and tamping outroller lines. The 27-lb. (12.2 kg) machine puts out 2,500 lbs.(1,133 kg) of true vibratory compaction in two passes, on a 1.5in. (3.8 cm) lift of Type 7f asphalt top. It travels at speeds up to24 ft. (7.3 m) per minute and offers up to 1,200 hits every sevenseconds.

Reliable 4-stroke Honda power is delivered to the head via aChromalloy drive shaft. The heavy-duty tamper head is 24 in.(60.9 cm) long and tapers from 7 in. (17.7 cm) wide in the cen-

ter to 6 in. (15.2 cm) wide on the ends.One side is curved to allow for tampingagainst all types of structures, such aswalls, foundations, light poles, bollardsand curbs. The tamper can be laid downfor compacting low headroom spaceswith as little as 4.5 in. (11.4 cm) of clear-ance. Rubber-mounted anti-vibrationhandles reduce worker fatigue.

Caterpillar Introduces Rotor Option for PM200 Cold PlanerCaterpillar’s PM200 cold planer now is

available with an optional 88 in. (223 cm)cutting rotor. Customers now have two cut-ting width options when purchasing thePM200: the standard 79 in. (200 cm) rotor orthe new 88 in. (223 cm) rotor option. The 88in. rotor option provides greater efficiencyand productivity by reducing passes duringapplications that benefit from a wider cuttingrotor, such as mainline, high productivitymilling. Fewer passes will contribute to areduction in fuel burn. The standard 79 in.rotor provides greater versatility for urbanapplications and milling tasks that require ahigh degree of maneuverability and preci-sion, according to the manufacturer.

The PM200 is a high-production, highlymaneuverable half-lane milling machine thatperforms controlled full-depth removal ofasphalt and concrete pavements in a singlepass. Operating weight for the PM200 isapproximately 66,359 lbs. (30,100 kg) withthe standard 79 in. rotor package; the weightincreases to 69,445 lbs. (31,500 kg) with theoptional 88 in. rotor package.

Both the 79 in. and the optional 88 in.wide rotors feature conical tool holders andhave a maximum cutting depth of 12.6 in.

(32 cm). The 79 in. conical tool holder rotoris equipped with 178 carbide-tipped tools,and the optional 88 in. conical tool holderrotor is equipped with 193 carbide-tippedtools. Both rotor options position the tools indurable three-piece, quick release tool hold-ers arranged in a chevron pattern for maxi-mum breakout force. The quick release con-ical tool holders feature a tapered fit, main-taining tightness in the holder base. Themandrel features large, replaceable, carbide-faced loading paddles to effectively movemilled material onto the collecting conveyor,resulting in higher production and less wearon the inside of the rotor chamber and cut-ting tools. Triple-tree tool placement on rotorend cutters provides optimum tool spacingto clean up loose material and reduces wearon the rotor when maneuvering in the cut,according to the manufacturer.

There is an optional dust-reduction pack-age available for PM200 machines equippedwith the 88 in. rotor option. The attachmentwill more efficiently control dust duringoperation and includes an additional waterpump as well as additional spray bars locat-ed inside the rotor housing and conveyors.

Customers now have two cutting width options when purchasing the PM200: thestandard 79 in. (200 cm) rotor or the new 88 in. (223 cm) rotor option.

Dynapac Introduces Paver Line for North America MarketDynapac’s F1000T tracked and F1000W

wheeled 10-ft. (3 m)-wide asphalt pavershave been designed from the road up withthe contractor in mind.

Designed especially for the NorthAmerican market with input from dealersand contractors, the F1000 series pavers canhandle extreme conditions in remote loca-tions, yet are easy to operate and service,according to the manufacturer.

The F1000 series features heavy weldedframe construction, dual swing-out operatorstations and low deck height. The result isenhanced visibility for the operator, whonow has a clear view of the hopper and auger— and a full view of the work area.

The .75 in. (1.9 cm) formed hopper wingsdeliver asphalt to a high-capacity slat con-veyor with a wide material tunnel and extraheavy chains and slats. The high-perform-ance outboard auger drive and the conveyordesign eliminates the auger chain drive boxand means no center line segregation. Theconveyor system delivers 600 tons (544 t)per hour of asphalt to either a Carlson EZ IIIor EZ IV screed to lay mats up to 12 in. (30.5cm) deep on new placements, and thin over-lays on rehabilitation projects.

To complement the rugged design of thepavers, a dual computer system and reliablerelay logic controls have been incorporatedinto the machine to withstand harsh environ-ments and the demands of the job site. Themulti-function display makes it easy to cali-brate the system.

Powered by a Cummins QSB-220 Tier III

diesel engine operating at 230 hp (171 kW)and 1800 rpm, the F1000 series also featuresan integrated Sauer drive system. The avail-ability of these parts throughout the countrymeans quick turn-around for maintenanceand repair for maximum uptime on the site.A 36 kW, 60 Hz generator provides full out-put at low idle for increased fuel economy.

The F1000 series is easy to operate withfeatures and functions that have beendesigned with operator comfort and safety inmind. The simple controls and multi-func-tion display are operator friendly andgrouped for convenience. The precisionfront-wheel assist steering on the F1000W istight and responsive, and the steering on theF1000T can be controlled by a knob for pre-cise paving speed control. A return-to-centerfeature is an advantage on both models, aswell as a single lever for forward/reversecontrol. Fumes exhaust through the enginestack, reducing the crew’s exposure toasphalt fumes.

Uptime is critical on any paving job so theF1000 series is easy to troubleshoot andservice, according to the manufacturer.

No daily lubrication is required on thetractor, and two fuel tanks are at ground levelfor quick refueling. A single panel at the sidegives full access to filters, and flip-opendoors and a removable top cover give fullaccess to the engine and hydraulic lines.There is a pressurized hydraulic filtrationsystem with one-piece hydraulic valve man-ifolds offering simple maintenance. And for

overall maintenance, the radiator and oilcooler have been designed to withstand pres-sure washing.

Electronics in harsh environments can bean issue in some cases, but not with theF1000 series pavers. The sealed wiring har-ness in the sealed fuse box is designed foreasy service in a clean enclosure. The logicrelays feature an LED power indicator,latching indicator and mechanical overridefor fast trouble shooting and quick replace-ment. The Sauer cartridge valves have a

manual override, and the drive system is eas-ily disengaged with a simple manual con-veyor tension to move the paver in the eventof a major failure.

“We call it ‘Uptime from Design,’” saidBruce Truesdale, president, Dynapac USA.“Everything on this paver has been designedto help contractors improve productivity,reliability, operator comfort and safety andreduce total cost of ownership.”

Performance and reliability Dynapac’s asphalt rollers and paversDynapac’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.

SAKAI SW880 Vibratory RollerRaises Paving Productivity

SAKAI America’s SW880 high-frequen-cy vibratory asphalt roller increases pavingproductivity by achieving density fasterwhile leaving smooth finishes on all mixes,even the most challenging Superpave proj-ects, according to the manufacturer.

The SW880 offers a drum width of 79 in.(200 cm) and 4000 vpm, which allows for10 to 12 impacts per foot at 4.55 mph (7.3kmh). SAKAI’s counter-rotating weightdesign helps achieve density at fast speeds.The front drum eccentric weights rotateclockwise while the rear drum weightsrotate counterclockwise or vice versadepending on amplitude. This guaranteesthat the forces generated by the weightsmove up and down. By focusing thesedownward forces into the material, theSW880 eliminates the possibility of pave-ment shoving, scuffing and hairline cracks,according to the manufacturer.

The drums of the SW880 are machinedsmooth and edges are rounded for a smoothmat surface. The SW880 is a useful rollerfor the compaction of county, state andinterstate highways, airport runways andSuperpave projects.

The SW880’s power, comfort and safetyalso enhance productivity. The SW880offers a powerful, yet fuel-efficient DeutzTCD 2012 L04-2V Tier III diesel enginethat delivers 131 hp (97.6 kW). The opera-tor’s station is designed with a rubber-isolat-ed floating deck to minimize vibration to theoperator, which minimizes fatigue.

The SW880 also consists of a five-posi-

tion, 180 degree rotating operator consolewith instrument panel and seat. This designensures that all controls are easy to reachand gauges are easy to view no matter whatposition the console is in. The SW880 alsoprovides 360 degree visibility plus a greatview of the drum edges from the operator’sseat.

The SW880 offers 29.5-in. (75 cm) curbclearance to avoid guard rails.

ROPS and seat belts are standard equip-ment on every Sakai roller sold in NorthAmerica.

Another feature on the SW880 roller thatenhances paving productivity is theExactCompact system located on the con-trol panel. This system measures impactspacing and determines the speed that theroller should travel to ensure exact com-paction. Once the proper impact spacing isdetermined, the operator adjusts the roller’sground speed until the green lights are illu-minated on the ExactCompact. This opera-tor-friendly system speeds up roller opera-tion and productivity.

The SW880’s spray system eliminatesdowntime during the crucial compactingstage. The spray system consists of rust-proof tanks, stainless pipes and brass noz-zles that can simply be replaced by hand.The triple filtration system prevents clog-ging from debris and a pressurized emer-gency back-up pump system provides waterin the event of a water pump failure.

For more information, call 800/323-0535or visit www.sakaiamerica.com.

The SW880 offers a drum width of 79 in. (200 cm) and 4000 vpm, which allows for10 to 12 impacts per foot at 4.55 mph (7.3 kmh).

Wirtgen W 200 Asphalt Cold Miller Offers Three Engine SpeedsThe new W 200 asphalt cold

milling machine from WirtgenAmerica Inc. is a large butcompact milling machine thatcan be equipped with millingdrum assemblies of 59, 79, or87 in. (150, 200 or 221 cm)working width. Three selec-table engine speeds enable abroad range of applications,such as large-scale surfacecourse rehabilitation, completepavement removal at fulldepth, fine milling, and manyothers. It has a milling depth of0 to 13 in. (0 to 33 cm) and ispowered by a single enginegenerating 550 hp (410 kW).Its operating weight is 59,934lbs. (27,185 kg) with half-fullwater tank, half-full fuel tank, a165-lb. driver, and tools.

Like the W 200, the new W210 is a large but compact milling machine,which can be equipped with milling drumassemblies of 59, 79, or 87 in. workingwidth. But unlike the W 200, the W 210boasts a fuel-saving drive concept utilizingtwo diesel engines, generating a total 671 hp(500 kW) with both engines engaged. Like

the W 200, it features three selectableengine speeds to enable a broad range ofapplications. Its operating weight is 62,138lbs. (28,185 kg).

The Parallel-to-Surface (PTS) technolo-gy used on the W 200 and W 210S auto-matically keeps the cutter housing level as

they move into a cut, accelerating produc-tion, and their “smart” WIDRIVE technolo-gy offers new microprocessor-controlledenhancements to machine control systems,tying all main functions to a single source tomanage fuel costs, tooth costs and othervariables.

The Intelligent SpeedControl system incorporates anelectronic flow divider thatmakes the four tracks work inharmony when turning aradius. Skipping and notchingare eliminated, track wear isminimized, and the machineoperates smoother, accordingto the manufacturer.

The units incorporate theLevel Pro, Wirtgen’s existingautomatic leveling system,which is user-friendly and reg-ulates the pre-set milling depthand actual readout electronical-ly.

Asphalt and concrete millingis one of the most abrasiveenvironments for any machine,but the vacuum cutting systemwill remove dust, fines andsmoke from the cutter chamber

and extract it out of the conveyor, keepingthe machine cleaner and prolonging compo-nent life, according to the manufacturer.

And Wirtgen’s new 3DS flexible applica-tion drum speed system will automaticallyslow drum speeds in deep cuts, saving onfuel consumption and tooth wear.

Wirten’s large but compact milling machine, shown here with the optional canopy, is available in threeselectable engine sizes.

Vögele 8-ft. 5100-2, 5103-2 Vision Pavers Offer VersatilityThe 8-ft. (2.4 m) tracked Vision 5100-2

and 8-ft. wheeled Vision 5103-2 pavers fromVögele America offer versatility forAmerican contractors.

The tracked Vision 5100-2 asphalt paveris 18 ft. 2-in. (5.5 m) long, and with the stan-dard E-Z IV screed, permits 8 to 15 ft. (2.4to 4.6 m) of paving width, at a weight of34,050 lbs. (15,445 kg).

The wheeled Vision 5103-2 asphalt paver,similarly equipped with E-Z IV screed, is 19ft. 9-in. (6 m) long, at a weight of 32,849 lb.(14,900 kg).

Either configuration gives contractors theability to tackle large highway jobs, subur-ban streets, and heavy commercial projectswith optimum smoothness, productivity andeconomy.

“‘Quiet, cool and full of fuel’, was ouroperating mantra in designing the 5100-2and 5103-2,” said Brodie Hutchins, generalmanager, Vögele America Inc.,Chambersburg, Pa. “It sums up what the 8-foot machines needed to be. We kept themquiet, with cooler operating temperatures,but with a large fuel capacity, because most8-foot machines don’t carry enough fuel togo through an entire day of paving.”

“Bigger is better” was not the case here,Hutchins said.

“Our objective was to figure out how toput all the technology improvements of the10-foot machine into an 8-foot, smallerpackage for the customer,” he said. “Wedesigned in ErgoPlus technology, with itsease of operation and integrated leveling sys-tem. It’s exactly the same system as with the10-foot [Vision 5200-2 and 5203-2] pavers.Many of the maintenance-free features of the10-foot machines have been brought over tothe 8-foot machines. Most important, wekept all of the operator comfort features. Forexample, the operator’s station can extendout beyond the edge of the machine, so theyget the same visibility they do on the 10-footmachines.”

In addition, fuel tank capacities are largerfor greater daily productivity.

“For the 10-foot machines, it’s 106 gal-lons, and for the 8-foot machines it’s 60 gal-lons,” Hutchins said. “That will be enough totake a customer through a 10-hour shift.Also, noise levels, operating temperaturesand fuel capacities all are major issues forthe 8-foot paver market, and we’ve solvedthose problems with the 5100-2 and 5103-2pavers.”

The Vision 5100-2’s independent augerand conveyor drive are equipped with foursensors. The outer center conveyor drive hasnarrow center chain guards. There is betterfeeding under the auger box for reduced cen-ter line segregation, and the pavers havestandard hopper wall thicknesses and func-tional hydraulic apron.

Both 8-ft. machines are powered by aCummins 170 hp (127 kW) Tier III emis-sions-controlled engine. On the 8-ft.machines, there was not the option of plac-ing the fan for exhaust or fumes extraction aswas done for the 5200-2 models, so theexhaust stack is placed differently than withthe 10-ft. machines. The stack is angled for-ward for operator comfort, keeping thenoise, soot and fumes up and away fromhim.

The tracked Vision 5100-2 asphalt paver is 18 ft. 2-in. (5.5 m) long, and with thestandard E-Z IV screed, permits 8 to 15 ft. (2.4 to 4.6 m) of paving width, at a weightof 34,050 lbs. (15,445 kg).

Bobcat’s Planer Attachments Offer Increased TorqueBobcat 18- and 24-in. (45 and 61 cm) wide planer attach-

ments offer increased torque and horsepower for improvedperformance compared with the models they replace. Thenew planers are compatible with all current high flow Bobcatloaders, including the new S850 skid steer and T870 com-pact track loaders.

The cutting drums on Bobcat planers can be unlocked toallow oscillation up to 15 degrees in either direction. As aresult, surface tracking is optimized even when the loader isoperating on a rutted or potholed surface. This feature isunique to Bobcat planers and provides continuous cuttingdepth without constant operator input, according to the man-ufacturer.

New on the 18- and 24-in. planers is increased down forceto help keep the drum in the cut during operation. In addi-tion, units have been redesigned so that the left ski is nowvisible to the operator. This allows the planer to be kept clos-er to the center of the carrier, which makes it easier to con-trol the path of the machine.

The back frame is now stronger and more durable in orderto handle higher-horsepower carriers. At the same time, therear opening has been enlarged so that more material passesthrough without being re-milled, resulting in increased pro-ductivity.

Hydraulic side shift on both planer models has beenincreased from 26 to 29.8 in. (66 to 75.7 cm) so that they canbe used on the larger S850 and T870 loaders. Side shiftingpermits milling outside the width of the carrier so it is possi-ble to work close to walls and curbs. The right ski and endplate may be removed for milling flush against walls with nofurther clean-up work required.

Cab-controlled hydraulic cylinders raise and lower theindependently adjustable skis. Cutting depth can be adjusted

from 0 to 6 in. (0 to 15 cm). Depth and oscillation gauges allow the operator to con-

firm the correct cutting depth and angle of the planer withouthaving to move from the seat. Special side cutting bitsreduce binding and provide a vertical edge for improvedjoint bonding between new and existing asphalt.

Replaceable ski wear pads provide consistent depth con-trol by penetrating through debris in the path of travel. Inaddition, steel wheels on the rear frame provide solid supportand reduce tire bounce while planing.

A priority valve diverts hydraulic oil flow to depth func-tions without causing a loss of power to the planer drum,allowing the operator to make adjustments on-the-go with-out affecting performance. A top access panel saves time by

permitting the operator toinspect or replace cuttingbits without raising the plan-er from the surface orremoving the drum.

The 18- and 24-in. planersmay be equipped withsmooth or fast cut all-pur-pose drums or with smallerall-purpose or slot cut

drums. Drums are easily changed by removingthe right side ski and access panel, much likeremoving the wheel on a vehicle. Carbide cut-ting bits are secured with expansion ringsinstead of C-clips for fast and easy replacement.

Field installed accessories include a guide rodkit to help the operator follow a previous cut orline; a planer wheel kit (in lieu of skis); and awater and nozzle kit for dust control.

A 14-in. (35.5 cm) cutting width planer isavailable for Bobcat loaders with standard flowhydraulics. It features manual depth controlfrom 0 to 6 in., 29.8-in. hydraulic side-shift andan all-purpose drum. It also may be equippedwith additional drums of varying widths. Drumsare easily changed by removing the right side skiand access panel.

A 40-in. (101.6 cm) high flow planer also isavailable. It features hydraulic depth adjustmentfrom 0 to 5 in. (0 to 12.7 cm). Skis are inde-pendently adjustable and the depth gauge andoscillation gauge are visible from the operator’sseat. A diverter valve allows the operator toswitch from hydraulic side-shift to hydraulicoscillation. Oscillation is +/- 8 degrees.

Owners and operators who wish to monitoroperating hours and maintenance intervals ontheir 18-, 24- and 40-in. planers may do so usingthe new deluxe instrument panel available on

Bobcat M-Series loaders. The deluxe instrument panel willtrack cumulative operating hours and also offers two reset-table clocks that can be used to monitor items like time onthe job, cutting bit life or hours between drive motor oilmaintenance.

A Bobcat loader and planer attachment are ideal formilling potholes, alligator cracks and frost heaves; creatingcuts for recessed lane markers; milling around manholes;matching uneven pavement surfaces; cutting drainage inparking lots; and tapering the edges of roadways. They alsoare ideal for cleaning up around larger milling machines andworking in places where size and weight do not allow dedi-cated planers to work, such as on bridges and walkways.

Marketing Pioneer Layton to Retire From Wacker NeusonAfter 28 years marketing to the construction

and concrete industries, Jim Layton will retirefrom Wacker Neuson Corporation at the end of2010. During his tenure as marketing communi-cations manager, Layton expanded the depart-ment from a one-man operation supporting adozen products to leading a team of communica-tions professionals with a multi-million dollarbudget supporting nearly 400 products. He alsoled Western Hemisphere communications effortsduring the company’s transition from a privately-held manufacturer to the global, publically tradedWacker Neuson.

Over his career, Jim has led many marketingcommunications campaigns, which have drivenequipment sales growth. He started theWackerman Club, today known as the WackerNeuson Rewards Program, which has registeredmore than 20,000 contractors, who receive pro-motional gift rewards for equipment purchases. Aunique promotional campaign to support theintroduction of a new, single-direction plate com-pactor helped to achieve product sales goals andgave away nearly 1,000 pairs of running shoes.On an annual basis, his marketing team generatesmore than $1 million dollars worth of editorialvalue in trade magazines and electronic media,helping to broaden market awareness for WackerNeuson equipment.

His most recent marketing innovation, the

Wacker Neuson Trowel Challenge, exhibited allthe characteristics of an integrated marketing pro-gram. It combined efforts from sales, manufactur-ing, sales channel partners, trade magazine pub-licity and electronic social media to generateawareness for Wacker Neuson ride-on trowels.The program was directly responsible for nearly$100,000 in related equipment sales at dealerevents with indirect sales tallying in the hundreds-of-thousands of dollars.

“Looking back, we’ve seen many changes inhow we market our product to the customer, andit has been a privilege to be a part of the compa-ny’s communications success,” he commented.

His mentoring efforts have reached beyond theinner confines of Wacker Neuson to includeindustry and community programs. Layton hasserved on the American Rental Association’sboard and trade show committees for the ARA,Associated Equipment Distributors and World ofConcrete. He also has served on the board ofdirectors for the Menomonee Falls Chamber ofCommerce and YMCA.

Layton leaves Wacker Neuson to spend moretime with family and friends and to pursue otherinterests within the industry.

“The time is right for me to depart WackerNeuson and close this chapter of my career,” hesaid. “I’m looking forward to starting a new chap-ter within the industry.”

Jim Layton willretire from Wacker

Neuson Corporationat the end of 2010.

Minneapolis I-35W Bridge CollapseMemorial Construction Ready to BeginBy Brian BakstASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Names of victims will beetched into opaque glass on 13 backlit columns.Behind them will stand a wall recognizing survivorsand those who responded to the 2007 Interstate 35Wbridge collapse. An adjoining path will lead to aMississippi River overlook providing views of the newbridge where traffic zooms by a few hundred feet away.

As Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak and architectsshowed off a new design for a memorial Sept. 9, theyset a goal of finishing it in time for a dedication cere-mony during next August’s fourth anniversary.

The announcement erased lingering doubts aboutwhether a memorial would ever be built. It was firstannounced in 2008, but slow fundraising and logisticalissues held it up. The project got a big boost in Augustwhen a legal settlement tied to the collapse included$1.5 million to pay for the memorial and continuingmaintenance.

“There was not a single doubt in my mind this wouldhappen,” Rybak said, adding, “Minnesota doesn’t for-get. Minnesota continues to care and people whoselives were changed will always have the support of thecommunity.”

The Minneapolis Park Board still has to sign off on

the location, but city leaders regard that as a formality.The area where the memorial will sit is across the streetfrom Gold Medal Park, a gathering spot after the col-lapse and the site originally picked for the memorial.Officials said they struggled to work out an agreementto permanently house it there, which led to the switch.

Symbolic touches run through the memorial. Thecolumns line an 81-ft. plaza to mark the date of the col-lapse: 8-1-2007. It is 13 ft. wide, representing the num-ber of people killed. The 65-ft. path to the overlook ismeant to convey 6:05 p.m., the precise moment whenthe old steel bridge buckled and sent motorists plung-ing dozens of feet into the river.

Parts of the design — such as the upright I-beamcolumns — are meant to represent the bridge. Butarchitect Tom Oslund said no materials will come fromthe failed span.

Federal investigators blamed the collapse on con-nector plates that were too thin and a heavy load of con-struction material staged above vulnerable parts by apaving company doing bridge work at the time.

On Sept. 7, crews began removing the final rustedsteel beams from a nearby riverside park, where theywere stored until major litigation was concluded. Aflatbed truck containing some of the twisted beamsdrove by just as the news conference was wrapping up.

Archaeologists Find Wealth ofArtifacts at Wisconsin Dig

KOSHKONONG TOWNSHIP, Wis.(AP) Although scientists tend to cringewhen terms such as “treasure trove” areapplied to archaeological sites, it’s hard todescribe the Finch Site at Highway 26 northof Milton any other way.

What else would you call a two-acre stripof wooded hills that archaeologists saidholds 160 identified pits where prehistoricNative American people dumped everythingfrom deer bones to weapon shards to burntand broken clay cookware?

What do you call a property that contains,at the very minimum, 100,000 NativeAmerican artifacts, which scientists believedate from 5000 B.C. to 1200 A.D.?

Call it what you’d like. But one thing’scertain: The Finch Site, which is locatednortheast of the intersection of Highway 26and Pond Road in the KoshkonongTownship, soon will be buried by a statehighway.

Archaeologists who’ve been digging atthe site since late last year have nearlywrapped up contract work for the WisconsinDepartment of Transportation. Their charge:To excavate 25 percent of the site and iden-tify its contents before the state purchasesand paves over most of it with the plannedHighway 26 expansion in 2013.

Although 75 percent of the site remainsuntouched, the Wisconsin DOT has knownsince conducting an archaeological survey in1999 that the area holds a significant amountof native artifacts.

“What we’ve found here suggestsextremely intense, long-term use of thissite,” said Ricky Kubicek, an archaeologistfrom the Great Lakes ArchaeologicalResearch Center, the Milwaukee-basedresearch group the Wisconsin DOT hired forthe excavation.

“We’re not necessarily sure that therewere villages or settlements here, but it’sclear that throughout time, different groupsof people kept coming back over and over,”Kubicek said.

Many of the items crews unearthed at thesite came from the Woodland Era, a period inprehistoric Native American history 2,500 to800 years ago. Other items, including someknife and arrow points, come from theMississippian Era and would have been usedby native hunters in southern Wisconsin1,200 to 500 years ago, crews at the dig said.

Although archaeologists have found nohuman remains at the site, one key discoverywas a 1,200-year-old deer bone. It has visi-ble cut marks in it, probably from stonetools, Kubicek said.

“They’re like prehistoric butcher marks.This was from somebody’s dinner,” he said.

To find such a concentrated and varied

cache of ancient human materials is rare,Kubicek said, and was only possible becausethe hilly, wooded site was left undisturbed bymodern plows. Its contents stayed locked forages in the soils’ stratified layers, encasedunder old-growth timber and native vegeta-tion.

The area was so pristine, Kubicek said,researchers were able to find in soil samplestiny plant and animal remains, such as fishbones and burned seeds. That helpedresearchers to pinpoint what the site’s formerinhabitants ate and even the seasons whendifferent native groups used the sites.

Archaeologist Katie Cera was recentlyusing a water tub to separate rocks and plantmaterial from soil samples at various pits atthe site, a job she’s done for nearly a year.

“We’ve been finding a lot of corn, squashand bean seeds here,” Cera said.

Earlier this year, while she was dumpingrocks that sifted to the bottom of her watertub, she found a big surprise—an 8,000-year-old spearhead known as a Folsompoint. It’s a rare find and one that doesn’tmatch the chronology of other items at thedig site. Archaeologists at the dig said it’s notclear how the weapon found its way there.

The artifacts’ next stop is UW-Milwaukee, where researchers will curateand analyze them further.

The items, all of which now belong to thestate of Wisconsin, could end up in museumsor at state-supported historical societies aspart of an agreement between the state,Native American groups and scientistsinvolved in the dig, officials said.

Meanwhile, Great Lakes ArchaeologicalResearch Center plans to continue work atthe site through 2012, but at a slower pace,with an emphasis on more analysis of plantand animal remains.

“Anything else that we do in the comingmonths will be done on a volunteer basis andnot at professional speed,” Kubicek said.

Kubicek said public interest in his group’sdig has continued to grow since work startedlast year. He said this spring, droves of peo-ple wandered onto the site, carrying copiesof newspaper articles about the dig.

“People wanted a closer look. Teacherswere interested in doing class work. Findingstuff in the ground is right up a child’s alley,”Kubicek said.

Now that excavation work has slowed,Kubicek said his group is considering occa-sional public outreaches, which couldinclude supervised digs at some of the site’sexisting excavation areas.

Kubicek said that could give the public achance to learn more about ancient people ofsouthern Wisconsin before a future roadwayalters the course of history.

Mid-Sized E42 Joins Bobcat M-Series Mini-Excavator LineThe 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 (31kW) liquid-cooled diesel engine and an operating weight of9,246 lbs. (4,194 kg).

Redesigned hydraulics with a load-sensing pump andclosed center-valve system provide improved, refined con-trol of machine travel and work-group operation. The newhydraulics combined with re-engineered boom geometryalso result in increased bucket breakout forces. Cushionedwork-group cylinders offer smooth end-of-stroke for precisecontrol.

The E42 comes with an auto-idle feature which, if acti-vated by the operator, automatically returns the engine to idleif excavator functions are not used for a period of four sec-onds, saving fuel and reducing job site noise. The engineautomatically returns to the preset throttle position as soon asthe operator starts working again. For precise engine speedadjustments, a new easy-to-use rotary knob has been addedto the controls.

Within the operator’s area, the boom swing control hasbeen moved from the floor and placed on a thumb switch onthe left joystick, making it easier to operate and opening upspace on the floor for the operator’s foot. New larger travelpedals fold up to provide more floor space while flush-mounted floor mats make cleanup easier. A keyless start sys-tem that discourages theft and vandalism is available as anoption.

A TOPS/ROPS canopy with high-back suspension seat,

retractable seat belt, cup holder, adjustable armrests and lock-able toolbox is standard on the E42 while a quiet, comfort-able enclosed “radio ready” cab with heat and air condition-ing is available as an option. The cab includes an improvedair conditioning system with a 20 percent increase in air flowand additional air ducts. An optional deluxe cloth seat also isavailable.

Like all Bobcat M-Series compact excavators, the E42features an X-frame undercarriage that provides improvedground clearance and sheds debris for reduced cleanup time.Drive motor covers are inset within the motor wrap-aroundsto protect them from potential damage.

Integrated slew brakes hold loads still and steady on slopesfor more accurate placement. The need for the operator tomanually engage the slew brakes during transport is elimi-nated, making it easier to load and position the machine.

In addition, Bobcat’s in-track swing frame keeps theswing castings and cylinders within the width of the trackswhen digging in an offset position, helping the operator digflush against an obstacle. When other compact excavatorswork in an offset dig position, their components extend out-side the tracks and reduce their ability to dig in tight areas.

The E42 is available with a long arm option that maxi-mizes dig depth, reach and dump height clearance. Otherpopular options include pad-ready steel tracks, a hydraulicangle blade, second auxiliary hydraulics, hydraulic clampand Hydraulic X-Change attachment mounting systems forquickly switching between the 16 attachments approved foruse on the machines.
