Sixty-eight road projects in 31states will receive $93.9 million inPublic Lands Highways grant funds toimprove access to public lands, U.S.Secretary of Transportation RayLaHood announced Jan. 13.
“The roads that carry America toand through its national parks, triballands or any of the other federal landsneed help, just like the rest of thenational highway system,” saidLaHood. “These funds will help pro-tect the roads for the many whodepend on them and improve the qual-ity of life for communities served bythese unique places.”
The funds will improve andincrease accessibility on the lands of15 Native American tribes, 11 militarybases, 19 national park units, 10national forests and four nationalwildlife refuges.
Unlike most of the nation’s publicroads, which are managed by state
departments of transportation, federallands roads are maintained by varioustribal and federal agencies. Fundsfrom the Public Lands Highwaysgrant program supplement their exist-ing infrastructure programs. They alsocan be used for cities and counties thatare responsible for the roads providingaccess to federal and tribal lands.
Examples of this year’s grant recip-ients include:
• More than $4 million will beused to help improve road access tothe Flight 93 National Memorial inStonycreek Township, Pa.
• Nearly $3 million will be used forroad improvements near the forthcom-ing American Veterans Disabled ForLife Memorial in Washington, D.C.,between I-395 and the U.S. Capitol.The memorial is anticipated to becompleted by 2012.
• Nearly $2 million will be used tomake tribal road improvements on the
Standing Rock Sioux reservation inNorth Dakota.
• Nearly $1 million will be used foralternative transportation improve-ments around the Fort Baker area inthe Golden Gate National RecreationArea in California. This work includespedestrian connection improvements,upgrades to National Park Serviceshuttle buses, planning for bio-dieselrefueling capacity, and installation ofsigns, bicycle racks, benches and otherrelated equipment.
• More than $1 million will be usedto complete construction of the SR101/t3ba’das Parkway on theSkokomish Indian Reservation,Washington.
This is the largest amount of grantfunding awarded to public lands roadssince 2002, and the second largest inthe 79-year history of the FederalHighway Administration’s PublicLands Highways program.
Transportation Secretary Announces$94M for Federal Lands Road Projects
ATLANTA (AP) Some $75 million in federal stimulusdollars have been awarded to road widening and resurfacingprojects throughout Georgia.

Crews Employ Cranes to Install Boltson Crumbling Rock Face Along U.S. 64
A $2.1 million emergency contractwas awarded to Charles Blalock &Sons of Sevierville and highway offi-cials had said after the Nov. 10 slidethat the cleanup would take at least twomonths.
According to TDOT’s Web site, bythe end of January crews were assem-bling a new 150-ton crane to be used toinstall the bolts along the rock face.Approximately 200 bolts, with a 2-in.(5 cm) diameter, ranging from 10 to 25ft. (3 to 7.6 m) long will be driven intothe mountainside. The contractor wasplanning to remove debris that wasgenerated by recent blasting from theroadway so that a crane pad could beconstructed for the new crane.
TDOT Commissioner GeraldNicely said in a statement that the slidehas been a major inconvenience forresidents of Copperhill and Ducktownand everything is being done to get thehighway reopened as quickly as possi-ble.
Smaller cranes on site are being used for a variety of jobs, including lift-ing and turning the delivery trucks around because there is no space onthe site for the trucks to turn.
including — in addition to Reid, Stabenow and Murray — SenatorBarbara Boxer (D-CA), chair of the Senate Environment andPublic Works Committee, which has jurisdiction over the federalsurface transportation and water infrastructure programs.
Also attending were leaders of business and labor organizations,local and state government officials, and representatives of the rural,education and minority business communities.
At the press conference, Slater spoke alongside Senators Boxerand Bob Casey (D-PA) and two representatives of national labororganizations.
Slater stated, “What we heard today was not only a commitmentto a near-term jobs creation package, but a commitment fromSenator Boxer to write a multi-year highway bill this year, and tostart that process in March. We fully support this commitment andlook forward to working with Senator Boxer and her colleagues asthey write this critical legislation.”
He added, “We know many thorny policy issues have to beresolved before the House and Senate can come to agreement on anew multi-year highway bill, and that in the meantime — right now— Congress needs to pass some measures that can help to createjobs for Americans in the nearer term. We respect and support this.But as soon as that work is done, we hope that our lawmakers willturn to our nation’s long-term infrastructure investment needs. Wemust have a multi-year funding commitment to provide market cer-tainty, so planners can plan, and business can invest. This is how theprivate sector creates jobs.”
A Hard Number Look at the Need for
Infrastructure InvestmentDennis Slater, president of the Association of Equipment
Manufacturers recently spoke before a meeting of senatorsabout the state of the construction industry. He had the fol-lowing to report:
• 1.25 million. That’s how many jobs the constructionequipment industry supported in 2008.
• 550,000. That’s how many jobs the constructionequipment industry has lost in this recession.
• 50 percent. That’s how much employment in the con-struction equipment manufacturing sector alone hasdeclined since 2006.
• 22,000 deaths annually are related to deficientroadway conditions.
• Commuters in major urban areas waste 4.2 billionhours every year stuck in traffic — costing another $87billion to the economy in lost productivity and wasted fuel.
• At least 33 percent of our nation’s major roads arein poor or mediocre condition and 26 percent of bridgesare structurally deficient or functionally obsolete.
• $225 billion. According to the SurfaceTransportation Policy and Revenue Study Commission, theU.S. needs to spend $225 billion annually for the next 50years to upgrade our surface transportation system. Weare spending less than 40 percent of this amount today.
• $350. That’s how much wealth is returned to theeconomy for every $100 invested in infrastructure,according to a University of Maryland study.
• 35,000. According to the Department of Labor,35,000 jobs are created for every $1 billion spent oninfrastructure.

Fundamental Fixes Equal Less Spending, Longer Tool LifeToday’s economic realities now demand
using every trick of the trade in order tomake equipment last longer while squeezingevery excess expense – including constantlypurchasing new tools – out of the balancesheet.
Jerry R. Fifer, technical support managersoutheast of Tramac said maintenance gaffesthat cost companies both in tool wear andbig money for replacements come down tofour basics:
• All grease is the same, right? The Fault: Breaker tools or points
become extremely hot (as high as 400 F ormore) when in use. At those temperatures,standard lube grease will liquefy and run offthe tool or actually burn up entirely, leavinga shorter lifespan for tools’bushings and bro-ken tools.
The Fix: Good grease. Breaker greaseshould be, at minimum, No. 2 lithium-basedgrease containing 3 percent molybdenum. Itshould be rated to work at temperatures of atleast 500 F or more). Why is the molybde-num a “must have”? It helps the grease stickto the tool and not run off.
• Where do I grease it? The Fault: Failing to put enough grease
on and applying it in the wrong way can bejust as bad as using low-quality product.
The Fix: Start with a quick examination.When the breaker is raised vertically off theground, the tool will drop down and exposethe portion that is in contact with the lowertool bushing. The condition of this exposedportion is indicative of the condition of theupper, unexposed sections. The exposed por-tion should be thoroughly covered withgrease.
But how to apply it? Use an automaticgreaser (if available) and set it to applygrease only when the breaker is operating. Ifthe automatic greaser runs while the breakertool has dropped down (see above) greasewill be deposited on the top of the tool. Thenthe next time the breaker is used the grease(now trapped between the top of the breakertool and the bottom of the strike piston) willbe forced through the lower piston seals anddamage them. If applying lubricant manual-ly, the tool must be pushed upward into thebreaker before greasing. This is easy to do by
lowering the breaker vertically and pressingthe tool against the ground.
The bottom line: using the proper amountof high-quality grease and putting it on in theright way greatly reduces the friction wearon the tool and tool bushings.
• When is it time to inspect?The Fault: Tool tops not checked regu-
larly lead to more damage overall.The Fix: The top of the tool takes a
tremendous beating from the strike piston.Eventually, the tool top’s surface will mush-room just like the top of a mechanic’s coldchisel or punch. It is important that themushrooming areas be filed off before theybecome so large that they break off. Brokenpieces of the tool can get trapped betweenthe tool and the strike piston, resulting in pis-ton damage. Also be sure to check for dam-age on the areas of the tool that strike the toolretainers. Any mushrooming or other faultsmust be filed off at regularly.
An important reminder: different types ofbreaker applications will result in more orless tool damage. Inspect and service the toolonce a week until experience teaches you
how long your service intervals can be.• When do I replace the bushings? The Fault: Wear limits on bushings are
routinely misjudged, resulting in pistondamage and shortened lifespan on otherparts.
The Fix: All breaker tool bushings have aspecified inner diameter wear limit. Whenthis limit is reached, most bushings appear tohave plenty of material left to wear off andare usually not replaced as recommended.But the key is to remember that the wearlimit is not based on how much material isleft but on the possible angle of engagementbetween the tool and strike piston. The lowerbushing will be the first to wear out. If it isallowed to wear past the limit, the tool can beat such an angle to the piston that the pistononly hits the tool on the edge of the strikesurface. Continuing to operate the breaker inthis way will damage the strike piston. Inaddition, wear on the upper bushing is accel-erated when the lower bushing is worn out.The lifespan of the upper bushing can beextended by replacing the lower bushingwhen the wear limit is reached.

SE Equipment Inc. Expands With Two New Dealerships
By Jennifer Hetrick CEG CORRESPONDENT
SE Equipment Inc. recently expandedinto two new areas, bringing the number ofBobcat dealerships in the group up fromthree to five.
Bobcat of Charleston, S.C.’s new location
is being managed by Todd Owens and willhave three new employees, David Adams inparts, Mike Gardiner in sales and MartinMoran in field service. SE Equipment Inc.also added Bobcat of Savannah, Ga., to theorganization. Steve Duncan, who hadworked at SE’s Greenville location since2005, has relocated to Savannah to lead that
branch.According to John Hopper, general man-
ager, SE Equipment, the decision to expandin difficult times was really a matter of keep-ing to the company’s standards. “While theeconomy is tough it brings about opportuni-ty and our strategy hasn’t changed. We stillwant to acquire Bobcat stores in a contigu-
ous territory to allow us to better serve ourcustomers,” Hopper said.
The expansion, continued Hopper, “pro-vides a consistent experience for our cus-tomers. We offer the highest level of serviceand by being able to operate anywhere in theregion, we are able to have our customers

Southland Surmounts Sodden Soil for Road, Bridge Workfor the bidding informationshowed wetlands but, based onborings, didn’t indicate standingwater. ”We’re basically buildingthe job in the middle of a lake.”
They didn’t have an approvederosion-control plan, just a genericplan, when they were given thejob, he said. They hadn’t yet phys-ically gone through the wetlandswhen they submitted the plan for ageneral notice of intent.
“We have had to work with theDOT and water management dis-trict on developing a plan to workthrough the standing water,”Eliason said. “These conditionsrequire daily monitoring of the siteconditions and constructionprocess to determine if any adjust-ments or corrections to the pro-posed plan are needed.”
There are creeks and lakes allaround the project, and turbidity isan ongoing concern, requiringdaily monitoring, he said.
The plan includes isolating thejob with berms and then comingback to remove the trapped waterso they can build to grade, Eliasonsaid.
The two-lane overpass is beingconstructed about 700 ft. (213 m)south of the existing roadway andwill have 12-ft. (3.6 m) travel lanesand 10-ft. (3 m) shoulders, accord-ing to FDOT.
The road will tie back into Fla.26 about three-quarters of a mi.east and west of the existing inter-section, with connector roadsbeing constructed to access thecurrent at-grade intersection andlocal businesses, Eliason said.
The scope of the contractincludes approximately 450,000cu. yds. (344,049 cu. m) ofembankment, 71,600 sq. yds.(59,866 sq. m) stabilization,52,000 sq. yds. (43,478 sq. m) ofbase, the construction of a newstorm drainage system and boxculvert as well as the new bridge,he said.
Track excavators, bulldozers,wheel loaders, vibratory rollers,motorgraders, cranes and a rubber-tire hoe are working on the job,Eliason said.
It’s a mixture of owned and rent-ed equipment, he said.
The motorgraders are allCaterpillars, and all the excavators
in the company except for aHitachi 450 are Komatsus, Eliasonsaid. Most of the dozers are JohnDeeres, including a John Deere750 dozer being used to push filland a John Deere 650 dozer beingused to do fine grading on theembankment.
“We’ve got a lot of embankmenton the project,” he said, noting thecompany hopes to have all theembankment in place by the timethe rainy season rolls around again,usually July.
The company will be renting a
crane, but the deal hasn’t beenfinalized, Eliason said.
Southland currently servicesmost of its equipment in-house, butNeff Rental and Linder IndustrialMachinery Company handle theservice on the company’s newerequipment and rentals, he said.
The project will involve a sub-stantial amount of borrow.
“We are importing approximate-ly 400,000 cubic yards of fill fromsurrounding fill sources,“ Eliasonsaid. “We will have approximately50,000 cubic yards of fill on sitefrom the pond construction.”
The job will entail nearly 1,100cu. yds. (841 cu m) of concrete and12,000 tons (10,886 t) of asphalt,he said.
The concrete bridge will require787.30 cu. yds. (601.89 cu m) ofconcrete, with the box culvert hav-ing 300 cu. yds. (229 cu m) of con-crete, Eliason said.
As for the asphalt, the projectcalls for 7,400 tons (6,713 t) forstructural and 4,600 tons (4,173 t)for friction, he said.
The project will entail the use oftwo pipe crews, two earthworkcrews, two grade crews and abridge crew, Eliason said.
“These crews will be phased inand off the project, so the projectwill probably maintain a level ofaround 20 employees on any givenday,” he said. “Currently, ourschedule only necessitates daytimework Monday through Friday.”
Subcontractors working on theproject include Ed SmithConstruction Company of Atlanta,box culvert; Steven Counts Inc. ofOcala, Fla., asphalt base, structuralpaving and friction; JVDConstruction Inc. of AltamonteSprings, Fla., barrier wall; InfinityReinforcing Inc. of Palm Coast,Fla., rebar; RES Construction ofOrlando, MSE wall; W&S, shoul-der gutter; Belcorp Inc., sod;Geotechnical Foundations, piledriving; A-1 Sod, erosion control;Protection Services Inc., trafficmanagement; and PSI, quality con-trol.
The project isn’t adding much tothe traffic headaches at the inter-section beyond some minor laneclosures on U.S. 301 to accommo-date the bridge construction,Eliason said.
“Most of the project is outside of
the existing roadway footprint,“ hesaid. “We will have minor trafficreconfigurations and detours whenwe tie in the road in the final proj-ect phases.“
The job is on the eastern edge ofAlachua County, roughly a dozenmiles from Gainesville, Fla., whereit is called University Avenue,Eliason said.
“State Road 26 is a major east-west artery for Gainesville,” hesaid, “and traffic tends to build upat the intersection during commut-ing hours in the morning and after-noon … The project is also goingto alleviate some of the safetyissues concerning the junction ofthese two major roadways and therailroad in a relatively rural area.”
According to FDOT, more than9,500 vehicles travel daily on Fla.26 and more than 11,000 traveldaily on U.S. 301. And the num-bers increase during University ofFlorida home football games whenfans travel to the school on thoseroads.
Meanwhile, rail traffic is fore-cast to increase substantially on theline, meaning more trains to backup Fla. 26 traffic waiting to crossthe tracks, Eliason said.
It also could mean more danger-ous situations for Fla. 26 trafficbacked up at the tracks waiting totravel through the U.S. 301 inter-section, he said, noting that theoverpass will thin Fla. 26 trafficthrough the intersection and thusimprove safety there.
Southland was attracted to thelow-bid contract for several rea-sons, Eliason said.
“The project was an opportunityto expand our region to DOTDistrict 2, said Eliason, noting thecompany did work in District 2several years ago but has not had alarge presence in the Districtrecently.
“Southland was attracted to thebalanced mix of roadwork andbridge construction in the scope,”he said. “We believe that our road-work and pipe experience is sec-ond to none, and this project alsoallowed us to continue to developour burgeoning bridge division.”

Eaton Corporation will beginoffering retrofit versions of itsHydraulic Launch Assist — HLAhybrid power system for refusetrucks later this year. The RefuseRetrofit Program will be offeredthrough select qualified partnersand installers. Eaton is currentlyseeking partners for the program.
“By retrofitting existing trucks,Eaton is giving our customers abest-of-both-worlds scenario,” saidSeth Deutsch, manager — HybridMarket Planning. “Until now, ourrefuse market customers in NorthAmerica have been frustrated intheir efforts to improve fuel effi-ciency and reduce emissions infleets of newer trucks with manyyears of service left in them. Theyhave been asking for a hybrid solu-tion that does not require the pur-chase of a new truck, and we’re
pleased to deliver the retrofitoption.”
The Eaton Hydraulic LaunchAssist (HLA) system is a parallelhybrid system, in which the con-ventional powertrain is supple-mented by the addition of thehydraulic system that propels thetruck forward and helps slow itdown. The system is best suited forvehicles that operate in stop and goduty cycles such as refuse trucks.Benefits of the system include 20to 30 percent improvement in fueleconomy, longer brake life, andincreased productivity due to theextra power the HLA system pro-vides.
Eaton hybrid electric, plug-inhybrid electric and two hybridhydraulic power systems, paralleland series, are available or indevelopment on truck models
including International, Peterbilt,Kenworth, Freightliner, Iveco,DAF, Daimler, and Ford and on
bus models from Foton,Zhongtong, Yutong, JNP, KingLong, Shen Long, Heng Tong, BCI
and Solaris. Eaton hybrid power systems
have accumulated more than 30million miles of road-tested servicearound the world.
Companies such as FedEx,UPS, Coca-Cola Enterprises,PepsiCo and Wal-Mart are usingdelivery vehicles with the Eatonsystem. Work trucks with Eatonhybrid power also are in service atFlorida Power and Light and manyutility and telecom companiesacross North America. Benefits ofthe existing Eaton hybrid systemsinclude fuel savings up to 35 per-cent, with similar percentages inemission reductions, extendedbrake life and idle time reductionsof up to 87 percent during worksite operations.

McNeilus Truck Offers Commercial CNG Concrete MixerMcNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, an Oshkosh
Corporation company and manufacturer of refuse truck bod-ies and concrete mixers, introduced a compressed natural gas(CNG) concrete mixer. The McNeilus CNG-powered mixermeets the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) 2010 heavy-duty engine emission standardsfor nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter(PM).
The McNeilus CNG-powered concrete mixersoffer a clean fuel technology solution to the heavy-duty truck market and will help make the construc-tion industry more environmentally friendly. Whencompared to their diesel engine counterparts, CNG-powered mixers offer lower fuel costs, reduced noisepollution and are six times cleaner, making them bothmore economical to run and environmentally friend-ly than diesel-powered mixers, according to the man-ufacturer.
McNeilus applied for a grant with the CaliforniaSouth Coast Air Quality Management District(SCAQMD), the governing agency on air pollutionfor the Los Angeles South Coast Air Basin, to modi-fy its prototype truck so it can be commercialized andsold. The project includes creating and conducting a six-month testing program, and developing documentation forthe truck’s maintenance and operational use.
“We are looking forward to making this type of clean-fueled truck widely available to construction companiesinterested in promoting clean energy,” said William A.Burke, governing board chairman of the SCAQMD. “It’s
important to have natural gas vehicles for all applications,including heavy-duty construction equipment. This is a greatexample of how clean fuel technology is spreading to allkinds of vehicles.”
“Our experience as the only in-house manufacturer ofCNG-powered refuse trucks made us the best company towork with SCAQMD in the development and commercial-ization of a CNG concrete mixer,” said Mike Wuest,Oshkosh Corporation executive vice president and commer-cial group president. “With our proven success in developingCNG turnkey solutions for refuse haulers, McNeilus is con-
fident we will deliver the same quality and reliability onwhich McNeilus has built its reputation to our concrete cus-tomers.”
The CNG concrete mixers will be fitted with 6-cylinder,8.9L Cummins ISL G engines developed byCummins Westport of Canada. Cummins’ ISL Gengine features cooled exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) and electronic engine controls resulting in ahigh performance, clean-running and reliable enginethat meets EPA 2010 heavy-duty engine emissionsstandards. McNeilus first plans to offer bothBridgemaster and Standard mixers on either theKenworth W900 or T800 chassis. Other chassismanufacturers’ CNG platforms are pending.
Wuest noted that McNeilus spent several yearsresearching and working to understand ways toobtain state and federal grants for alternative-fueledvehicles, as well as tax rebate programs associatedwith CNG-powered vehicles and fueling stations.McNeilus grant specialists help customers learnmore about the benefits of CNG and assist in identi-fying and securing funding for CNG fleet conver-sion.
“Our CNG-powered concrete mixers demonstrate thecompany’s pioneering environmentally sustainable vehiclesolutions and continued commitment to innovation that con-sumers can depend on to meet their heavy-duty vehicleneeds,” added Wuest.

Doran, DriverTech Offer Real-Time Tire Pressure MonitoringDoran Manufacturing and DriverTech
have reached a collaborative developmentagreement to integrate the Doran 360 tirepressure monitoring systems withDriverTech’s Windows Embedded onboardcomputing and mobile communications sys-tem for truck and trailer fleets. By seamless-ly integrating the tire pressure monitoringcapability into the DriverTech TruckPC, tirepressures for tractors and trailers can now bemonitored in both the truck cab and at fleetheadquarters in real-time. While tire pres-sure was previously the sole domain of thedriver, now the responsibility can be sharedfor improved management of fleet assets.
Control of tire-related problems is a majorconcern for fleets of all sizes, because lowtire pressures reduce fuel efficiency, and sig-nificantly shorten the service life of tires. Inaddition to saving maintenance and operat-ing costs, real-time monitoring of tire pres-sures allows drivers and fleet managers to
coordinate scheduled repairs to avoid costly(and potentially catastrophic) roadsidebreakdowns and improve the overall safetyof the fleet.
“We are excited to offer the capability tocommunicate tire pressure information andcritical low pressure warnings to both thedriver and fleet managers” said DoranGeneral Manager Jim Samocki. “We areproud to be working with a high-calibercompany like DriverTech, to expand theircapabilities into tire pressure monitoring.”
“Doran’s core operating principles, com-mitment to the customer and high-energyteam made it an easy decision for us whenreviewing tire pressure monitoring compa-nies. We have been very impressed with theperformance and reliability of the systemsand the quality of the team at Doran,” saidMark Haslam — chief executive officer atDriverTech.
“The ability to monitor tire pressures and
deliver real-time warnings to both the driversand fleet managers is a unique capability thatwe are making available to the truckingindustry,” Haslam said. “The combination ofour software and Doran’s tire pressure mon-itoring systems will help fleets improve theirefficiency and reduce operating costs.”

Gary Brouillette, general man-ager of the landfill division ofSamsula Waste Inc., was shoppingaround for a dependable materialhandler to replace the company’sexisting machine. After lookingover the competition, he chose topurchase a Sennebogen 825 M DSeries machine with its Cumminsengine, 47 ft. (14.3 m) of reach andenhanced safety features.
“In the end, we decided to gowith the reliability and dependabil-ity of the purpose-builtSennebogen material handler,which is tailor made for our waste,recycling and landfill needs,” saidBrouillette. “In the nine monthswe’ve had our new 825 M, we’vehad absolutely no problems with it— it just runs and runs. All we’vedone so far is routine maintenance.That’s the kind of uptime and pro-ductivity we expect and require ofour equipment.”

Sennebogen 825 M DoesDouble-Duty at SamsulaFitted with a Gensco five-tine
grapple with a magnet, theSennebogen 825 M D Series isbeing used primarily to separateconstruction and demolition debrisat the landfill site. It also is used tofeed a horizontal wood grinder.Samsula went with a rubber-tiredmachine to enable operators to getaround the yard quickly and effi-
ciently. The cab on the 825 D Series is
loaded with new features designedto increase operator efficiency,comfort and productivity, includ-ing a sliding door combined withthe adjacent catwalk, improvedaccess to maintenance areas, andupgraded climate control systems,according to the company.
Moving up to the biggermachine with its Tier III emis-sions-compliant 204 hp (152 kW)Cummins engine has increased thesite’s productivity, according toBrouillette.
“Since we took possession of it ,more often than not we’ve beenrunning the Sennebogen 825 M tenhours a day, six days a week andwe haven’t had to do one thing toit,” said Brouillette. “TheCummins engine in the 825 Mmakes a world of difference. And,of course, the 47 feet of reach onthe machine is a real bonus.”
Material Handler’s Double-Duty Ups Landfill Efficiency
Primarily used to sort debris at the landfill, operators appreciate the visibility that the elevating cabgives them.
The 825 D Series, with a sliding door and an adjacent catwalk,provides operators with increased comfort and safety.
The D Series – Sennebogen’s FourthGeneration of Material Handlers
Sennebogen was among the first manufacturers to offer thescrap and recycling industries a line of purpose-built material han-dling equipment in place of excavators retrofitted for unique liftingapplications. Today, Sennebogen offers a wide range of materialhandlers with operating weights ranging from 48,000 to 350,000lbs. (21,772 to 158,757 kg) in rubber tired, crawler and pedestalversions. The company’s D-Series models are Sennebogen’s fourthgeneration of material handling machines to America.
On the D Series machines, the safety features are centeredaround the cab.
• A sliding door combined with the adjacent catwalk providesan easy and safe way for the operator to step into and out of thecab without the awkwardness of a swinging door hitting the cat-walk rail.
• Getting to and from the cab is easier with a cab position thatprovides easy access for the operator via a small set of stairs.
• Upgraded climate control systems in the cab create a comfort-able atmosphere that keeps operators alert, attentive and undis-tracted.
• Improved access to maintenance areas, such as a centralizedundercarriage greasing point, makes maintenance easier andsafer.
• Tier III emissions-compliant engines.

Vermeer Compost Turner Does More With Less SpaceVermeer Corporation has introduced a
self-propelled compost turner with elevat-ing-face technology. The CT1010TX com-post turner can be used on compost siteswith either continuous-stack or windrowconfigurations and provides minimalunwanted degradation to the organic materi-al.
The CT1010TX helps compost sitesmake the best use of their space. By utilizingthe optional conveyor, compost sites can cre-ate a continuous stack configuration, elimi-nating the need for open space between thewindrows. This allows for three to four timesmore material to be placed in the same spaceas conventional windrow composting,according to the manufacturer.
“Space is a premium in composting sites,”said Chris Nichols, environmental salesmanager of Vermeer Corporation. “TheCT1010TX allows compost sites to stackmore material in less space. But the unit alsoworks well in windrow configurations.”
Powered by a 215 hp (160 kW) CumminsQSB 6.7 L engine, the CT1010TX canprocess up to 2,500 to 4,000 cu. yds. (1,911to 3,058 cu m) of compost per hour, depend-ing on the type of material and moisture con-tent. The CT1010TX turns a stack 10 ft. (3m) wide and 9 ft. (2.7 m) high.
The unit is propelled by a dual steeltrack system, which helps increase tractionover wheeled units and produces lessground pressure when working in non-paved compost sites. Amaximum speed of0 to 3.2 mph (0 to 5.1 kmh) in the highrange helps with transport and cycle times,while the 0 to 6.5 fpm (0 to 2.0 mpm) inlow range provides enhanced control inwet and heavy material.
SmartTrack, an advanced control sys-tem, monitors elevating-face pressure andwill slow or stop the ground drive whenthe elevating-face pressure reaches a pre-determined level. This feature has thepotential to increase machine and job siteproductivity by reducing operator inter-face.
“Our elevating-face technology features acombination of paddles and teeth that lift andtumble the compost material up the face ofthe compost turner and discharge the materi-al at the rear of the machine,” said Nichols.“This innovative process does not degradethe compost material and introduces moreoxygen into the compost pile.”
The elevating face features hardened cup-style teeth held in place using grade 5 andgrade 8 bolts. The grade 5 bolt acts as a shearpoint for the tooth should teeth come in con-
tact with contaminants, such as rocks andmetals. The grade 8 bolt will retain the toothto the machine, so it is not lost in the pile,reducing repair costs and service time.
An optional 48-in. (122 cm) wide V-cleatdischarge conveyor moves the compostaway from the machine and allows cus-tomers to create a continuous stack of com-post. The 24-ft. (7.3 m) conveyor extendsapproximately 8 ft. (2.6 m) beyond the leftside of the machine and can be adjustedbetween 10.5 and 13.5 ft. (3 and 4 m) dis-
charge height for loading material into atransport vehicle.
The CT1010TX cab includes a varietyof features designed for operator conven-ience and comfort, including a fullyadjustable seat, cab pressurization withself-adjusting climate controls, 12 voltaccessory plug-ins, AM/FM/CD soundsystem and large windows with front andside wiper/washer systems. An active-car-bon cab air filtration system aids in remov-ing odors and fumes, as well as dust anddirt particles.
The elevating face, optional conveyorand ground drive functions are all con-trolled with comfortable ergonomic dualjoystick controls, minimizing operatormovements and reducing fatigue. A single
switch staggers the start and stop functionsof the conveyor and elevating face. This fea-ture helps prevent operator error that couldresult in potential plugging of the conveyor,according to the manufacturer.
Separate reversible hydrostatic pumpscontrol the dual tracks, elevating face andoptional conveyor providing the operatorcomplete and independent control of the pri-mary machine functions.

Large Grinder a Perfect Fit for Disaster Recovery FirmThe recent devastating ice
storms in Kentucky and Arkansasonce again raised awareness ofnature’s power and how helplessman is against it. Events like those,however, also spotlight the valu-able role played by companies whocome in during the recovery effortto help an area restore some sem-blance of normalcy. Last year, onesuch firm, Bamaco Inc., headed tothe Houston suburb of Baytown totackle the cleanup from theonslaught of Hurricane Ike. Whileits primary goal was, obviously,the recovery effort, the firm alsochose the Baytown site as anopportunity to modify its approachto processing the nearly one mil-lion cubic yards of wood waste itencountered. At the center of thatmodification was the replacementof a pair of 1,000 hp (745 kW)grinders with a single, 1,200 hp(894.5 kW) Morbark Model 1600tub — the largest tub grinder in themanufacturer’s line.
By project’s end, Bamaco hadnot only upped production, it alsohad improved onsite efficiency andsafety, and lowered operatingcosts. It also found itself facinganother huge challenge, one it had-n’t foreseen: finding a way to keepthe new grinder fed.
What’s in a Name?Despite the fact that all the fam-
ily members who head up Bamacohail from Alabama, the companyname has a totally different signifi-cance, said Jeff Mitchell,Bamaco’s assistant vice president.
“The name is actually anacronym for ‘Beverly and Mikeand Company’ — Beverly beingmy mom and Mike being myfather” — said Mitchell. “My dadhas better than 30 years experiencedoing this type of work throughoutthe southeast, so he’s no stranger todisaster recovery. However, in2002, he decided to incorporateunder the Bamaco name and bringmy brother Jason and myself onboard.”
Today the Bunnell, Fla.-basedfirm operates nationwide, tacklinga broad range of projects includinghurricane clean-up; debris removalfrom other “events” such as icestorms, tornadoes, etc.; hazardousmaterials removal; demolition;beach restoration; canal restorationand more.
“We are almost constantly onthe road,” said Mitchell. “Downsouth during hurricane season, upnorth when the ice storms hit, youname it. We have a huge number ofpre-positioned contracts in placethat allow us to come into an areaquickly after a storm hits. In fact,we were in Baytown the day afterIke went through the area. Gettingthese areas cleaned up and gettingpeople back on their feet is our pri-mary goal; having those contractsin place streamlines the processand gets us working toward thatgoal.”
Unbelievable VolumesHaving worked all the major
hurricanes in recent memory,Bamaco was no stranger to large-scale cleanups. Nevertheless, uponarrival at Baytown, it was stillastounded at the volume of materi-al they were facing.
“We were in charge of about sixseparate collection sites aroundBaytown and some of them werejust filled to capacity, with moredebris being picked up daily,” saidMitchell. “To make a real dent inthe volume, we subcontracted outto several other grinding firms whoowned their own machines. Theirchallenge was to try to grind it andhaul it out as fast as it was comingin. Unfortunately, that was rarelythe case. Their grinders werepushed to the max but just couldn’tkeep up with the inflow of materi-al.”
Mitchell said that, despite push-ing the pair of 1,000 hp unitsBamaco owned to the limit, theywere struggling to keep up withvolumes at the main Baytown siteat which they were processing. Adifferent approach was needed anda mutual friend of the Mitchellshad what they thought just mightbe the answer.
Supersizing ItThe potential solution to which
the Mitchells referred was aMorbark Model 1600, a 1,200 hptub grinder that the friend in ques-tion had seen work firsthand inFlorida.
“He saw he 1600 in action andsaid that it was just an unbelievablepiece of equipment,” said Mitchell.“He swore that anyone using itwould need more than a couple ofmedium-sized excavators to keep
up with its production. We, ofcourse, were a bit skeptical, butwanted to see what it could do. Sowe called John Dale, the Morbarksales rep for this area and within 24hours he had it down here for ademo.”
The demo apparently put to restany suspicion that Mitchell’s friendhad overstated the 1600’s potential.
“We couldn’t believe what itcould do in terms of production,”said Mitchell. “Morbark told us the
machine is rated for as much as1,400 cubic yards an hour — wefeel that’s a really conservativeestimate. We bought the unit just acouple days after the demo andsince then it has exceeded ourexpectations on almost everycount.”
Command PerformanceGiven the successful results of
the test, the 1600 had to beextremely impressive onsite tomake any more of an impact on theMitchells — and it was. JasonMitchell said the unit was put tothe test immediately upon goinginto service and more than met thechallenge.
“We had a stockpile built up atthe large site that was probably inexcess of 100,000 cubic yards. Weknew from working another loca-tion that was similarly backlogged,that a trio of 1,000 hp horizontalshad to work round-the clock forfour days to get that materialprocessed. We came in here withjust the 1600 and — working onlya single shift each day — did thesame volume in three days. Thatwon us over in a hurry.”
Jason said the benefits providedby the larger machine go much fur-ther that simply how much materi-al comes off the discharge convey-or each hour.
“In our business, we mostlyhave to work with the hand we aredealt. Often, that can mean small-acreage lots, and debris coming inat a 50,000 yard-a-day clip. Inorder to get it ground up andhauled off as fast as it’s coming in,we’ve needed a minimum of threemachines grinding and at least thatmany other loaders feeding them.The Model 1600 has allowed us toactually increase production whilereducing the equipment and man-
power needed. That’s a huge bene-fit to us: having fewer machinesmeans a better ability to controlonsite traffic flow, improved safe-ty, lower operating costs, and soon. It’s really made a big impact onthe way we operate.”
Bigger Iron AheadWith throughputs at higher lev-
els than it had ever experienced,Bamaco’s new dilemma was find-ing the best method possible tokeep it fed. Though it made dowith the pair of mid-sized excava-tors — a Cat 320 and a HitachiZaxis 200 — it found them any-thing but efficient for loading thenew grinder.
“There’s no doubt that on futureprojects we will have largermachines — probably a pair of90,000 lb. machines like a Cat 330or something similar,” said Jason.“The smaller machines were con-stantly struggling to keep the 1600fed and we were only running thegrinder at 42 percent of its maxi-mum power.”
According to Jason, there wasone occasion where they ran theunit at full power — just to seewhat it could do. He said the tubwas empty after only three or fourrevolutions.
“We backed it down and neverran it full out on that job again. So,
essentially we ran the grinder atless than half power for the lengthof the project and it still easily out-performed three horizontals. Thatto me says it was more than worththe investment.”
The Name Says It AllBamaco is a strong proponent of
customer service and demands thesame from its equipment suppliers.Jeff said they were impressed withthe support they received fromMorbark from the outset and con-tinue to be so even today, well afterthe sale.
“First of all, the grinder itself isdesigned to be user-friendly andminimize maintenance concerns.We run the machine for four hours,shut it down to do regular preven-tive maintenance such as greasing,air filter blow-outs, and so on, andresume for another four hours.Morbark, as a company, however,is equally impressive. They wereright out here when we neededthem for a demo; they stayed on tomake sure we were running with-out any issues; and they made aservice technician available to usethroughout the time we were doingthe Baytown job. That kind ofservice is invaluable.”
Moving up to the larger grinderdoes, of course, entail additionalexpenditure. When pressedwhether those costs will prove jus-tifiable, both Jeff and JasonMitchell are hard-pressed to holdback their enthusiasm.
“There’s no doubt in our mindsthat, over one busy hurricane sea-son in Florida, the Morbark willpay for itself many times over. As amatter of fact, we probably did bet-ter than 900,000 yards at Baytown,more than half of which wentthrough the Model 1600. There’s agood chance it might have comeclose to paying for itself on that jobalone. Our business is centeredaround finding ways to get the jobdone in the safest, fastest, mostefficient manner possible. Whilewe initially chose the 1600 basedon the impressive volumes ofmaterial it could handle, we’vesince come to find that the benefitsof adding the machine run fardeeper than that — and that’s areally nice plus for us.”
“There’s no doubt in our minds that,over one busy hurricane season inFlorida, the Morbark will pay foritself many times over.”

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) Two taxes are emerging as away to raise money to pay for road repairs in Arkansas.
But a spokesman for the governor said any tax increasewill be a tough sell in the Legislature during a recession.
A subcommittee of the Arkansas Blue Ribbon Committeeon Highway Finance is discussing an excise tax on thewholesale cost of fuel and indexing taxes on diesel and gaso-line to highway construction costs. Members of the subcom-mittee say the two taxes would raise at least an additional$200 million a year for the Arkansas Highway andTransportation Department (AHTD).
AHTD said it will have $4.1 billion for construction overthe next decade but has needs totaling $19.1 billion.
Each tax would require a three-fourths majority vote in theLegislature to pass.

More Care. Built In.
If you have a lot of Mother Earth to move there is no better equipment than Volvo Excavators
and Volvo Articulated Haulers. From boom to counterweight, every Volvo Excavator is simply
built better. They are aggressive, rugged, powerful and balanced. Volvo Articulated Haulers
come with a heritage of superior load capacity, fast work cycles and powerful dump hydraulics.
When combined with low fuel consumption and long service intervals, you can be assured of
high productivity and low cost. So, if you need a bigger digger and a tougher hauler, this Volvo
combination can’t be beat. Visit ASC Construction Equipment now and get your Volvo.
