One of the treasured memories manyWashington state tourists fondly recall is the35-minute ferry boat ride across Puget Soundto Bainbridge Island, where they can bicycle orwander amongst shops, art galleries, wineries,restaurants and a public garden. Referred to bythe locals as “the boat,” it — along withWashington’s other ferries — is the most pop-ular tourist attraction in the state.

Terminal RepairTo ensure that future tourists can share the

recollections of crossing the Sound by ferry andenjoying the island, Washington State Ferries isretrofitting the Bainbridge Island ferry terminalbuilding to enhance earthquake safety, upgradethe public restrooms and replace many agingbuilding components.Built in 1955, the existing terminal building

does not meet current seismic design codes,other building codes or energy efficiencyguidelines, according to Hadley Rodero,Washington State Department ofTransportation ferries division communica-tions. “The public restrooms are inadequate anddo not meet American Disabilities Act guide-lines. The exterior walls of the terminal build-ing will be stronger.”The Washington State Legislature identified

this as an important project due to the age of thebuilding and its seismic instability. With feder-

al funds totaling $1.69 million and state fundsof $3 million, for a total budget of $4.7 million,it was let for bids in August 2013. The contractwas awarded to PHC Construction ofBainbridge Island in November 2013 and workbegan in January this year. The project isexpected to be complete by September 2014.This project will improve safety during an

earthquake by retrofitting the building to cur-rent design codes, Rodero said. “The main pub-

A Sigh of Relief...

Skykomish River Bridge ReconnectsCut-Off Washington NeighborhoodBy Amy NileTHE DAILY HERALD

INDEX, Wash. (AP) The Aug. 16ribbon-cutting for a new bridge overthe South Fork Skykomish Rivercomes with a sigh of relief in a privatecommunity that has been without vehi-cle access since a 2013 mudslide.

Debris started coming down a hill-side in December, cutting off the neigh-borhood east of Sunset Falls.

Mud still blocks Mount Index RiverRoad, necessitating a hike along a1,100-foot trail and then a walk or driveof up to another 3 mi., dependingwhere one lives and whether there’s avehicle available.

More than 250 property ownerswere affected, including about 100 full-time residents.

On Aug. 14, some were able to driveto their homes from U.S. 2 for the firsttime since the private road was blocked.

The long-awaited one-lane bridgeover the Skykomish, near CanyonFalls, is now the only way into theneighborhood by vehicle. But theMount Index Riversites homeownersgroup has decided to deny bridgeaccess to some isolated residents whoare behind in payment of dues for roadwork.

The mudslide left the communitystrapped for cash. Riversites residentsspent some $70,000 trying to clear theroad before they ran out of money topay crews.

In May, the group decided on a dif-ferent solution. It inked a $500,000 dealwith the Snohomish County PublicUtility District to split the cost of thegalvanized-steel truss bridge.

On Aug. 14, a handful of neighborsstood in the rain by the bridge, antici-pating the approval of a county inspec-tor — the green light for traffic to cross.

“Right now I’m so anxious, I feellike I’m about to go out on my firstdate,’’ joked Bill Stehl as he waited tocross.

About a third of the neighborhood’shomeowners have fallen behind onroad dues. The Riversites board decid-ed to deny those people an access codeneeded to cross the bridge unless they

start paying down their debt. “This bridge seems like the perfect

opportunity to get people to pay up,’’said Lynne Kelly, a Riversites boardmember. “We’ve never had that kind ofleverage before.’’

Kelly said that blocking people fromtheir property could result in a lawsuit,but Riversites badly needs the money.Those who are one to 12 monthsbehind on road dues must start payingat least $50 a month to use the bridge.People who haven’t paid in more thana year are expected to contribute $100a month or more.

“We felt like that was reasonable,’’said Earl VanBuskirk, the board’s vicepresident. After the deadly Oso mud-slide on March 22, Mount Index wasincluded in county, state and federalemergency declarations.

The homeowners did not receivefederal aid money, but the disaster dec-laration allowed the community tosidestep bureaucratic hoops and expe-dite the bridge permitting process.

After eight months of people strug-gling to haul in basic necessities, ten-sion has been high. It wasn’t Oso. Butit has been a hardship.

The mudslide took out a cabin anddamaged power lines, causing morethan a dozen outages and a fire. Peoplewere forced to live with no servicessuch as propane delivery or garbagepickup.

Anger and resentment grew asneighbors debated ways to solve sharedproblems and how to pay for them.Some resorted to making threats,including one man who was arrestedafter telling a PUD worker he wasgoing to blow the bridge up.

“There’s a lot of frustration,’’ saidTom Grenier, the Riversites road chair-man.

After months of hiking from the baseof Sunset Falls through shin-deep mudwith groceries, gas and supplies, ThomBoullioun said, he mostly gave up ongoing home.

The retired Boeing worker, and hisgolden retriever, Bandon, have spentmany nights since the slide sleeping inBoullioun’s truck or couch-surfing. Hisneighbor, Jeff Smith, bought an all-ter-

rain vehicle to get his necessities homeafter a trail was built into the blockedarea last spring. Smith and his partner,Kainoa Marquis, both had back surgeryseveral weeks before the mudslide.

One of the couple’s three shelties,Wind, is suffering from a brain tumor.Smith said he has been unable to getthe dog to a veterinarian.

Smith and others think the PUD tookadvantage of homeowners who weredesperate to gain access to the neigh-borhood with the bridge deal. Smith, areal estate appraiser, said the communi-ty stood to gain far more from the per-manent easement rights the utility wonin negotiations.

The PUD needs access to Riversitesroads to study a controversial plan tobuild a $123 million hydropower proj-ect near Sunset Falls. It is looking intothe merits of putting a tunnel in a sharpriver bend to collect water and send it toa powerhouse downstream.

“This is the wrong place for some-thing like that,’’ said Smith, whosecabin is near the proposed site.“Preserving the natural beauty doesmore for humanity than the power.’’

Despite his concerns about the hydroproject, Smith said, he doesn’t deny theneed for the bridge. His partner,Marquis, said they tried to keep a posi-tive attitude to get through the pasteight months of hardship.

Along the walking trail into theneighborhood, the couple recovered amuddy, stuffed bear that had been sep-arated from its owner in the slide. It hadbecome a sad but familiar sight tomany on the tiresome route.

The couple cleaned the bear up andnamed it Hope. In an effort to demon-strate the community’s progress, theystarted posting Facebook photos ofHope in various places, including aconstruction worker’s backhoe andmost recently on the completed bridge.

“We rescued Hope as a symbol ofsurvival of this whole thing,’’ Smithsaid. “If that bridge wasn’t built, thiscommunity would be gone.’’

CEG Goes Behind-the-Scenes at ALLU’s HQ in FinlandConstruction Equipment Guide

(CEG) was recently allowedbehind-the-scenes access toALLU’s headquarters in Finland.The five-day visit included a

factory tour, demonstrations of thecompany’s equipment, includingits line of crushing and screeningequipment working on local jobsites and video and PowerPointpresentations on ALLU’s soil sta-bilization system, a tour ofHelsinki as well as a host of otheractivities.“We saw this visit as a opportu-

nity to share information about ourcountry and our company,” saidSari Pekkala, marketing manager,ALLU Finland Ltd. “Pioneeringwork is always challenging andwhen we had the opportunity to tellmore about the work we do and atthe same time show our beautifulcountry, we decided it was worthlooking into.” ALLU may seem like a relative-

ly new company to most people(the manufacturer changed itsname officially to ALLU in 2007),but the company was founded byMarkku Jonninen in 1985 and wascalled Ideachip Ltd. before that.The name “ALLU” is derived

from the waste-eating dinosaur“ALLOsaurus,” which fit wellbecause ALLU’s screening andcrushing buckets do the same thingas its namesake once did — helprecycle and process materials. For close to three decades,

ALLU has experienced steadygrowth. What began in Finland hasgrown to offices around the world,including Germany, Sweden,France, Great Britain, UnitedStates, Argentina and China, withdistribution in more than 30 coun-

tries. “ALLU has always listened to

the real needs of the clients anddeveloped, not only products, butalso working methods,” saidKauko Pylväs, managing director,ALLU Group. “For instance,screener-crusher working princi-ple, screening and crushing simul-taneously with one single unit wasdeveloped in the beginning of1990s by ALLU. In many coun-tries it’s called “alluizing.” Massstabilization concept as well is anew working method and ALLUwas the first one to develop equip-ment to perform the mass stabiliz-ing work. “Based on this, the markets for

ALLU products are new andALLU needs to do a lot of pio-neering work in order to informabout the great possibilities of theirtechnologies to the potential cus-tomers,” he added. “ALLU hasbeen prepared to do this and it hasensured fast and steady annualgrowth. Even though some compe-

tition has appeared to the market,thanks to the continuous invest-ments to the product and saleschannel development, ALLU hasbeen able stay as worldwide mar-ket leader of its branch.” For most of its existence, ALLU

Finland’s core business has beendesigning, manufacturing and sell-ing screener crushers and otherattachments for excavators andwheeled loaders. In the early2000s, ALLU started the stabiliza-tion business, which differed great-ly from the original core business.Stabilization business is based onselling new working method andmachinery to a specific project.ALLU developed the first mixer

for the mass stabilization processin the middle 1990s and finishedthe complete system in 2003.“Mass stabilization concept was

developed already some decadesago and mainly for stabilizing softclay-type layers approximately10to 15 feet deep,” said Pylväs. “Atthat time, the major problem for

performing the mixing of thebinder to the soil was lack of prop-er mixing tool. In the beginning of1990s, Finnish universities andresearch laboratories succeeded indeveloping a method for utilizingmass stabilization concept also toorganic soil materials like peat.Once the first test results came outand after discussing with localgeologists about their mixing prob-

lems, ALLU started to develop amixing head and later on a com-plete equipment concept, too.Today, ALLU has a wide range ofmachinery for different mass stabi-lization applications covering evena 3D positioning system.”In January 2014, ALLU separat-

ed its stabilization business into anew company. ALLU StaMix Ltd.

Construction Equipment Guide (CEG) was recently allowedbehind-the-scenes access to ALLU’s headquarters in Finland.

ALLU PF pressure feeder is a track driven unit,equipped with its own engine. By using compressedair, it feeds the binder into the ground right in the mid-dle of the mixing drums of the ALLU power mixer.

ALLU Screener Crusher bucket is a versatile accessoryfor wheel loaders, excavators or skid steers. WithALLU Screener Crusher, contractors can screen, crush,pulverize, aerate, blend, mix, separate, feed and loadmaterials all in one stage.

By Ken MillerASSOCIATED PRESS

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) TheOklahoma Department of Transportation onAug. 4 completed the $75 million sale ofnearly 100 mi. (161 km) of railroad trackbetween Sapulpa and Midwest City toStillwater Central Railroad LLC, whichplans to introduce passenger rail service con-necting the Tulsa suburb to the OklahomaCity suburb. ODOT Director Mike Patterson and Ed

McKechnie, chief commercial officer ofPittsburg, Kansas-based Watco Companies,the parent company of Stillwater CentralRailroad, signed the documents completingthe sale of the 97.5 mi. (157 km)-stretch ofrail, known as the Sooner Sub. McKechnie said the company is working

with Iowa Pacific, which operates passengertrain services in the United States and othercountries, to begin a trial run for passengerservice sometime during the first half of2015. He said the timeline for starting the serv-

ice and questions about the price of tickets,how many stops will be made along theroute and the length of time it takes to makethe trip are still being studied, with answers

expected by early October. McKechnie said safety issues must be

addressed and the track improved to allowtrains to travel at a faster speed. The rail is rated Class 2, which allows

speeds of up to 25 mph for freight and up to30 mph for passenger trains. An upgrade toClass 3 would allow speeds of up to 40 mphfor freight and 60 mph for passenger trains,according to the Federal RailroadAdministration. “Safety is the most important thing that

you do in this so as you go from moving acarload of grain to moving a carload of peo-ple you want to make sure that everything isas it should be,’’ McKechnie said.

The ultimate goal is to connect downtownTulsa to downtown Oklahoma City by rail,officials have said. There are currently threerail trips per day from Sapulpa into Tulsa,while Oklahoma City officials would haveto negotiate with Union Pacific to secureservices, according to Patterson. McKechnie said Stillwater Central

Railroad will continue moving freight on theSooner Sub rail, including agriculture andconstruction products and crude oil. “The facility in Stroud is one of the cen-

tral points of the energy markets in NorthAmerica,’’ McKechnie said, adding thatwork is under way to build a rail spur toCushing, the primary oil storage hub in the

United States. Patterson said funds from the sale will be

placed, by law, in the department’s railroadmaintenance revolving fund for safety proj-ects. “That would include ... rail crossing proj-

ects, to make those intersections betweentrains and automobiles more safe,’’ Pattersonsaid. The sale is in keeping with what ODOT

believes was the Legislature’s intent whenthe agency purchased rail lines during the1980s, Patterson said. “When the private sector became pre-

pared to repurchase the lines, that we wouldsell it back to the private sector so that thestate of Oklahoma is not in competition,’’with private business, according toPatterson. Patterson said ODOT previously sold to

Union Pacific a rail line stretching from thestate’s border with Kansas to it’s border withTexas and has been approached about nego-tiations to sell what is known as the CowboySub, about 22 mi. (35 km) of rail betweenStillwater and Pawnee.

Gov. Dayton Creates ‘Toro Day’ in Honor of Firm’s 100th Anniversary

The Toro Company celebrated its100th anniversary on July 10, 2014, asmore than 2,000 employees, retirees,channel and business partners, andother valued guests gathered at thecompany’s headquarters inBloomington, Minn. Joining MichaelJ. Hoffman, Toro’s chairman and chiefexecutive officer, as he remarked onthe company’s rich history and theindividuals and innovations thathelped shape the company’s successwas Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton,who presented the official proclama-tion declaring “Toro Day” in the stateof Minnesota, and BloomingtonMayor Gene Winstead.

“As we celebrate our first 100 years,it was truly gratifying to be surroundedby many of those who played such asignificant role in the company’s suc-cess,” said Hoffman. “We are honoredto have such talented employeesaround the world and individuals whohave served the company throughoutour history, along with great channeland business partners, who work everyday to serve our customers and helpadvance our efforts in the industry.And, I especially want to thankMinnesota Governor Mark Daytonand Bloomington Mayor GeneWinstead for joining our centennialcelebration and honoring the people ofToro.”

“Part of the mentality of Toro isreaching out to its customers and to thecommunities, and developing high-

quality products while strengtheningyour market through innovation,” saidGov. Dayton. “I don’t think that thefounder could have imagined 100years ago that Toro would grow to be aFortune 1000 company, or that moreimportantly, you’d be a leading corpo-rate citizen in Minnesota. Your contri-butions to this state have been enor-mous.”

Winstead added, “Toro is an impor-tant partner in the Bloomington com-munity, and is a company that hasendured because of its commitment tocustomer service and innovation.

ALLU Finland Ltd. continuesmanufacturing ALLU screenercrusher products. With this separa-tion ALLU wanted to profile thesales and manufacturing of the sta-bilization products clearly as itsown business. Both companies areowned by ALLU concern parentcompany ALLU Group Ltd.Mass stabilization is a fast and

cost-effective method for harden-ing soft ground by adding binderinto the soil, according to ALLU.Different types of clay, peat, slurryand other soft ground materials canbe transformed into a solid layer byusing the mass stabilizationmethod, which also can be used forprocessing and encapsulating con-taminated materials. The ALLUStabilization System consists ofthree devices: pressure feeder,power mixing unit and control sys-tem. This system has been in use

close to home for ALLU. Asfreight weight on rails has beenincreasing in Finland, the stabiliza-tion system has proven to be a veryvaluable method to stabilize theland next to elevated train tracks,which extends rail life and helpskeep the rail lines safe for manyyears to come.Mass stabilization also has been

a huge success around the world.This process is used on a variety ofprojects including hardening wet-lands for sports fields and residen-tial buildings, stabilizing areasaround houses to build additions,hardening areas around harbors toexpand buildable space, as well asto clean and contain contaminatedareas of water and marsh land.Soil stabilization essentially

works like a blender, similar tomixing dough. The ALLU PowerMixer is moved up and down inwet areas as the control systeminjects materials to harden the land.The Control System is able tosense how dense the land is andinforms the operator proper densityhas been reached and to then moveon to the next block of land. ThePower Mixer is fed by the PressureFeeder, which has more thenenough capacity to keep the jobmoving forward.

“Mass stabilization is still a fair-ly new working method for soilprocessing,” said Pylväs. “Mostprobably less than 10 percent ofsoil processing professionals in theworld know about it. On the otherhand, new applications appear con-tinuously for the method and possi-bilities are widening. Winning landfrom the sea by hardening dredgedsediments, strengthening soft soilsfor building roads, sport fields oreven buildings, supporting existing

rail road or dike embankments, orencapsulating contaminated soilsare just a few examples of them.ALLU foresees huge growthpotential for sales of its machineryon the soil stabilization market.”For more information, visit

As part of the Solar Decathlon event, an internationalaward-winning competition which gathers universities todesign, build and operate a full- scale, entirely functionalsolar-powered house, the Manitou Group sponsors the“Atlantic Challenge” team (based in Nantes). ManitouGroup provided a telehandler MT 835 to help assemble anddisassemble their “Philéas” project.

The Atlantic Challenge team counts students from 10universities and “Grandes Ecoles” including the EcoleSupérieure du Bois, the School of Architecture of Nantesor the Ecole Centrale de Nantes, for example. The“Phileas” project developed by the Atlantic Challengeteam aims to propose the rehabilitation of an old buildingin Nantes, Cap 44.

The prototype developed for the competition is an extrac-tion of the rehabilitation of the building, which was original-ly a flour mill built in 1895 along the Loire, then renovatedin 1970 to provide offices. Today it is not used anymore. Inorder to provide exemplary restoration in environment andeconomic terms, Atlantic Challenge’s project will be basedon local know-how and innovative solutions. The prototypewas built in Nantes and will then be exhibited for the com-petition in the gardens of Versailles. At the end of the com-petition, the project will be rebuilt in Nantes (France) foreducational purposes.

“The loan of a telescopic rough terrain allowed the projectteam to carry heavy loads, to provide materials to facilitatethe building of their prototype. Essential for the success ofthe project, the Manitou telehandler has been used daily,”said Pascale Noel-Hudson, corporate communication man-ager.

By Mead GruverASSOCIATED PRESS

CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) A25,000-gal. oil spill in the PowderRiver Basin occurred after a back-hoe nicked a 6-inch undergroundpipeline and, over time, corrosionturned the minor damage into anoil-spewing hole, the U.S. Bureauof Land Management said Aug.26.

It remained unclear how longago the backhoe damaged thecrude oil pipeline owned byCasper-based Belle FourchePipeline, and what sort of construc-tion work the backhoe was doingat the time, BLM officials said.

The company’s environmentalcoordinator, Bob Dundas, declinedcomment when asked if he couldprovide that information.

“I’m just not going to discussthat,’’ Dundas said.

He also declined to discuss

ongoing work to clean up the 3-mi.stretch of arid gully contaminatedby the May 19 spill 45 mi. south-east of Buffalo.

Between May 21 and 23, com-pany officials deliberately ignitedand burned off the oil in what wasdeemed a better and more practicaloption than using vacuum trucks toclean up the mess in the ruggedsagebrush country a few miles eastof the Powder River.

However, high levels of petrole-um compounds called diesel-rangeorganics remained in the soil ofCulp Draw weeks later, accordingto BLM documents obtained byThe Associated Press.

“We have determined that addi-tional work will need to be done toensure that remediation and recla-mation of the spill location will besuccessful,’’ BLM natural resourcespecialist Dustin Hill told Dundas

in a letter dated July 18. Cleanup following the spill went

well and the spill was mostlyresolved, Dundas told the AP onJuly 18.

Additional work in the draw inrecent weeks has included tillingthe soil and spreading fertilizer toencourage bioremediation of thediesel-range organics, according toBLM spokeswoman Cindy Wertz.

“BLM will continue to work

with the company on the remedia-tion,’’ Wertz said by email.

The oil spilled on BLM andstate land and it didn’t affect pri-vate property. The spill stopped acouple miles short of reaching thePowder River, which flows northinto Montana.

The BLM released a handful ofdocuments related to the spill andseveral photos of the burn opera-tion in response to an AP requestfor information about the cause.

Jill Morrison with the PowderRiver Basin Resource Councillandowner group said the newinformation about backhoe dam-age raises more questions.

“There could have been a leakgoing on beneath the surface forquite a long time. We don’t know,’’she said.

Project Consists of More Than 30 Subcontractors on Sitelic restrooms will be enlarged toprovide more capacity and meetdesign codes and ADA guidelines.The new roof will eliminate leaks.The new electrical panel willincrease reliability and reducemaintenance on the panel, as wellas allow a potential vendor to leasespace inside the building. Theoverall energy efficiency of thebuilding will increase with moreefficient lighting and windows.”After work is completed, she

said visitors will notice the follow-ing:• The public restrooms will be

larger, in a new location and meetcurrent codes.• The inside tollbooths will be

demolished, improving passengerflow through the building.• Space will be created inside the

building for the WSF vendorCommuter Comforts presentlyoperating outside.• The building will have all-new

exterior windows and slidingdoors, a new roof, a new electricalpanel, new light fixtures and a newheating, ventilation and air condi-tioning unit.

A Work in ProgressIn addition to general contractor

PHC Construction, Rodero saidthere are more than 30 subcontrac-tors on the project, including localcompany Beacon Electric ofSilverdale, Wash.Using trucks, an excavator with

a concrete demo attachment, dumptrucks, concrete saws and a boomtruck, an average of 10 to 15 work-ers will perform demolition andseismic and electrical upgrades;remodel the restroom and the staffarea; and complete energyupgrades including replacing win-dows, painting the interior andexterior facilities, replacing theroof membrane, cutting concrete,remediating asbestos and replacingthe heat pump in the terminalsupervisor building. Rodero said that this project was

the first on which WSF has usedshotcrete as a structural concretesolution as an alternative to the castin place method. Shotcrete is con-crete that is conveyed through ahose and pneumatically projectedat high velocity onto a surface, as aconstruction technique. The bene-fit comes from the fact that it

undergoes placement and com-paction at the same time, due to theforce with which it is projectedfrom the nozzle. It can be impactedonto any type or shape of surface,including vertical or overheadareas. It is sometimes used in stabi-lizing applications.

Open for BusinessThe terminal has remained open

during construction, but Roderosaid keeping it open and fully func-tional during construction has beenthe crew’s biggest challenge. “AsPHC became familiar with the ter-minal’s operational needs, theystreamlined their schedule andphased construction activity tomaintain progress, while keepingthe terminal open and functional,”she said, adding that this reducedthe total project completion time

by about six weeks, enabling it tostay on schedule. “The PHC management team

developed a collaborative relation-ship with construction administra-tive and ferry operational staff,”Rodero continued. WSF created asimilar relationship with residentsand commuters. “[We] highlightedthis topic at a December 2013community meeting on BainbridgeIsland,” she notes. Following that,a project-specific public meetingwas held in January 2014 to shareinformation about construction. In addition, WSF uses a project

Web site to share information withthe public that includes updatesabout detours for vehicles, bicyclesand pedestrians. “The public and ferry customers

were most interested in pedestrianrouting during construction,”Rodero said. However, she saidthat everyone involved with theproject has been pleasantly sur-prised by “how well BainbridgeIsland ferry riders have adapted tothe minor service changes as aresult of this work.”The adaptive ferry customers

can look forward to uninhibitedaccess after the work is completedin September.

Island history Bainbridge Island was named

by U.S. Navy Lieutenant CharlesWilkes, who commanded a Navysurvey team in 1841, in honor ofCommodore William Bainbridge,commander of the frigate U.S.S.Constitution during the War of1812.

In the early years therewere several towns on theisland, which boasted athriving economy based onthe logging and ship-build-ing industries, due to largeand accessible cedars,which were especially indemand for ships' masts.By 1900, the island had ashipyard and a large woodpreservative plant. Because Bainbridge was

home to many Japanesefarmers at the start ofWorld War II, the islandwas affected by the intern-ment order of 1942. DuringWorld War II, Japanese-American residents ofBainbridge Island were the

first to be sent to internmentcamps, an event commemoratedby the Bainbridge Island JapaneseAmerican Exclusion Memorial,which opened in 2011 on theWinslow waterfront in memory ofthe 227 island residents who wereheld in the camps by the U.S. gov-ernment through the duration ofthe war for fear of espionage.Now an increasingly affluent

bedroom community of Seattle,

Bainbridge Island limits develop-ment to the area of Winslow, leav-ing the rest of the island rural in aneffort to preserve green space. Thisis reflected in the presence of bighouses along the shorelines, withcondos and other dense develop-ment relegated to the town.

HammerHead Trenchless Equipment Celebrates 25 YearsChallenged to name a market-leading tool

that got its start as a prototype built in thefamily garage, most people might list thepersonal computer. Ask a utility installer orpipe rehabilitation contractor the same ques-tion, and the answer might be in the back ofthe company truck. The HammerHeadMole, a pneumatic piercing tool that caninstall a new pipe with “smaller holes, fewertrenches,” was designed in 1989 by an earth-piercing tool owner and two design engi-neers with an entrepreneurial passion formaking tools easier to use, simpler to serviceand more reliably productive. Now a market-leading manufacturer of

underground pipe installation and rehabilita-tion solutions, HammerHead celebrated its25th anniversary May 9. HammerHead CEO Brian Metcalf said:

“Expansion and diversification have beenfeatures of HammerHead since its foundersJon Haas, Rob Crane and Steve Wentworthbuilt that first Mole in Haas’ garage. Becauseof that, HammerHead has experienced dou-ble-digit growth year after year, introducingentire new lines of trenchless-related tech-nologies that give customers a completearray of solutions.”Metcalf said that 25 years later, with Ditch

Witch as its official North American distrib-utor, HammerHead now offers a full suite ofsolutions. “Customers can come to us with any proj-

ect and we’ll help them either burst it, line itor shoot a new run with our mole. Or we canline them up with a local Ditch Witch dealerfor vacuum excavation, directional drillingor open trenching.”

Piercing ToolsHammerHead’s 24 models of easy-to-

service pneumatic-powered piercing toolsrange from 2 to 8 in. (5 to 20 cm). Theyinclude the Catamount reciprocating headand the first front locatable piercing tool, theMoletrac. Piercing tools allow contractors toinstall underground gas, water, cable, irriga-tion, fiber or electrical lines underground,with minimal disturbance to tree root sys-tems, landscaping, buildings, streets andexisting utilities or pipes and minimizespost-installation restoration.

Pipe RammingPipe ramming is the most efficient alter-

native for placing steel casing 4 to 180 in.(10 to 457 cm) in diameter under roads, rail-roads, finished landscapes and structures. Itis the method of choice in cobble or free-flowing soil conditions. The HammerHeadrange of pipe ramming equipment includes a34-in. (86 cm) hammer, currently the largestpipe ramming hammer on the market.

Pipe BurstingHammerHead static, pneumatic and later-

al bursting systems are available to replacesewer, water and gas lines ranging from ½through 36 in. (1.3 to 91 cm) in diameter.Upsizing pipe capacity is done easily, usinglarger diameter replacement pipe than thepipe in place. The HammerHead productline includes the Hydroburst Static pipebursting systems and PortaBurst lateralreplacement system.

Horizontal Directional DrillingHammerHead has developed several

solutions for the horizontal driller. TheTriHawk drill heads are boltless headdesigns and feature a spline bit retention sys-tem with transmitter housing roll-pin lid,

with no bolts to come loose while boring.Multiple interchangeable bits provide solu-tions for almost all jobs from dirt to medium-hard rock and hard compacted cobble. HammerHead offers a wide range of

quick connect systems including theHawkeye and Splinelok. The Splinelok tool-ing connector was designed for maximumstrength yet simple installation and removalof HDD accessories such as drill heads andbackreamers.Pneumatic hammers like the

HammerHead 5 ¼-in. (13 cm) Roughneck400 and 6 ¼-in. (15.8 cm) Roughneck 500are now steerable, increasing any horizontaldirectional drill’s production capacity withpenetration rates of up to 150-ft. (46 m) perhour in medium to hard rock conditions.

Cured-in-Place-Pipe SystemsThe most recent introductions to

HammerHead’s trenchless solutions havebeen the HammerHead HydraLiner cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP) lateral pipe-lining sys-tems. Special resins and liner materials cre-ate a brand new pipe inside of and integralwith the existing pipe. CIPP technique cancomplete several runs in a single day. Incomparison, open trench technique oftenrequires several days for a single run. HydraLiner CIPP systems repair cracked

or broken pipes, eliminate root intrusion,bridge missing pipe sections, stop infiltrationand exfiltration, and even rehabilitate lineswith 22-, 45-, and sweeping 90- degreeangles. It can be used with virtually any pipematerial, including clay, cast, PVC, ABS andconcrete.

A Team That Bleeds Red andBlack

Metcalf said the tooling was not what hewas most proud of. It’s the HammerHeadteam. “When we transitioned successfully from

private equity ownership to being part of aprivately held, longstanding industry leadingcompany like Charles Machine Works, ouremployees embraced the change and havethrived in that environment. Our employeescreate a culture of customer satisfaction, adedication that fueled the company’sgrowth, doubling it in a short period oftime.” Employee passion, Metcalf said, has

always been a HammerHead hallmark, mak-ing it a unique company in the industry. “A passionate team who not only truly

believe in our customer, but in each otherand in HammerHead as an organization —our employees build upon the legacy of ourcompany’s founders. The past 25 years ofleadership, especially from our long-termemployees, bleeds red and black.” Tiffany Sewell-Howard, CEO of The

Charles Machine Works Inc., said, “TheHammerHead brand has grown significantlyover the past 25 years and we are very proudto have them as part of the CMW family ofcompanies. They are an instrumental part ofachieving our vision of The UndergroundAuthority for the next 25 years."Metcalf said the next 25 years is looking

bright for HammerHead. “We’ll see significant growth from our

core market segments, combined with newinnovative solutions to meet customer needsat their job sites worldwide.”For more information, call 800/331-6653

Trench Shoring Services Provides Ultra Shore SupportBy Brenda RuggieroCEG CORRESPONDENT

Trench Shoring Services pro-vides sales, rental and training fortrench safety products, and also isthe manufacturer of ultra Shoreproducts. The ultra Shore productsare lightweight, easy to use and areconstructed of specially corrugatedaluminum that provides protectionin trenches up to 12 ft. (3.6 m), butwith a weight that is hundreds oflbs. lighter than other shoring prod-ucts.

“These trench boxes can beassembled in five minutes,” saidGary Hooks, Trench ShoringServices representative. “The easeand light weight nature of the prod-ucts make them perfect for cities,counties and municipalities whoare looking for light weight, easyto use products. A lot of thesemunicipalities are using a rubbertire backhoe loader or a mini-exca-vator, and they need a trenchshoring product that doesn’trequire a large machine to move.”

Hooks explained that the prod-ucts come in different lengths.

“The smallest size ultra Shorebox weighs in at only 130 pounds,”Hooks said. “For mobility purpos-es, we build handles into theseproducts and one person can actu-ally pick the box up and move italong the ditch as he works. Thepanels are stackable up to 12 feet,and we have an optional telescop-ing leg kit that can add up to 24inches of additional clearance atthe bottom of the trench. All stack-ing tubes and spreaders are alu-minum, which keeps the totalweight down. The adjustablespreaders are popular on our boxesto provide protection in three-, four-or five-foot wide trenches withouthaving to change spreaders.”

An optional wheel kit is avail-able, which provides the contractorthe ability to attach wheels at thetop of the trench box and roll thebox down the trench for applica-tions such as saw cutting andtrenching in a parking lot where amachine isn’t really needed tomove the trench box.

The ultra Shore products areavailable for nationwide rental orsales from any of the 12 TrenchShoring Services locations, orfrom its factory-trained distributornetwork. The company provides

ongoing training courses on trenchsafety. Since Trench Shoring alsois the manufacturer, the companyalso has the ability to repair andrecertify any products that havebeen damaged.

Andy Strange Grading —Trench Shoring Rental

Customer

Robin Callahan of Andy StrangeGrading, Gainesville, Ga., hasbeen working exclusively withTrench Shoring Services for histrench shoring needs for more than10 years and has been “sold” onrenting the ultra Shore productsever since. When Callahan joinedthe company, he made his philoso-phy known that trench boxes aren’tsomething that you necessarilyneed to own.

“Every job has its own specificrequirements, and one trench boxdoesn’t fit every jobsite situation,”he said. “It’s a lot easier to dealwith Gary [Hooks] and TrenchShoring Services. They can matchthe trench box to the specific jobrequirements, and they’ll evendeliver and pick up. They’vebecome our one-shop source fortrench safety products. We’d haveto own probably 25 or moreshoring instruments to cover all thesituations we get into on our jobsites. All I need to do is make onephone call, provide the specifics ofwhat I’m doing, what I need, andwhere I am, and they take care ofit.”

The ultra Shore products havebecome a “mainstay” for the oper-ations of Andy Strange Grading.

“We use a lot of smaller equip-ment and work in tight spaceswhere there are a lot of utilities,”Callahan said. “The use of the lightweight ultra Shore products makesit easier to put a trench box togeth-er and to move compared to thesteel boxes that are much heavierand require a larger machine tomove.”

Callahan said that when they’refinished with the trench boxes, hecan actually stack the sections inhis pickup truck and drop them offat Trench Shoring Services and nothave to rely on a tractor trailer tohaul them off the site.

“Anytime we’re 12 feet or lessin trenching, I prefer to use thelightweight aluminum safety

boxes for the ease of handling andthe ability for my guys to be able tomove them,” Callahan said.“While in shallow trench situa-tions, two men can actually pick upand move the ultra Shore boxes byhand and not have to wait for amachine.”

Ultimately, the ultra Shoreboxes save Callahan time andmoney on his job sites.

“We own rock and gravel boxes,but we don’t own trench boxes,”Callahan said. “The one call that ittakes to have our trench box needsmet makes a lot more sense for usfinancially.”

Since four to seven projects areoften running at any given time,mobility and quick access totrenching products is important.Callahan noted that Hooks is on hisspeed dial, and the entire staff atTrench Shoring Services isextremely responsive and is all-around an outstanding group ofpeople.

“Quite often, we have other con-tractors stop and look at the trench-ing products we are using and askus questions about the ultra Shoreproducts,” Callahan said.

Alabama Gas Corporation— Trench Shoring

Purchasing CustomerTom Reburn is the manager of

safety of Alabama Gas Corporation(Alagasco). He has been involvedwith the Southern Gas Associationand the American Gas Association,and has been on their safety com-mittees for quite some time.Through word of mouth, he heardabout ultra Shore from TrenchShoring Services, and it makessense for his company to purchasethe product.

“We’ve been using the ultraShore that we buy from TrenchShoring Services for about 15years, and the employees like itbetter than any trenching andshoring equipment that we’veused,” he said. “It’s very lightweight, and it’s lighter than any-thing we’ve ever used before. ultraShore is fast and easy to use. It’sfool proof. There is no way to putit together wrong. The panels canbe used horizontally or vertically,and can be stacked for deeperexcavations.”

Reburn said they have all theirultra Shore equipment on trailers

that were designed for it, and theyare ready to go at a momentsnotice. They also made an in-housetraining video on the ultra Shoreequipment, and use it during rou-tine trenching and shoring training.

“We’re a natural gas distribu-tion company, and on occasion, wehave to dig excavations to repairgas leaks,” Reburn said. “That’swhat we use the ultra Shore for —the safety of our employees whenwe have excavations.”

At one time, Alabama Gas usedvertical hydraulic shoring, but theemployees did not like it nearly aswell as the ultra Shore.

Approximately 300 employeesare involved with the projectsusing ultra Shore, in about 20 loca-tions all over Alabama.

“We have ultra Shore equipmentat all of our operating locations,”Reburn said. “Once you buy it, it’srobust. It lasts, and doesn’t tear up.I might have the components tomake two trench boxes on a trailer,and once I buy everything on thetrailer, it really should last 10, 15 or20 years. It’s been holding upexceptionally well. I can’t think ofany that have ever had an issue thatwe’ve had to call the manufactureror anything. The guys love it, andthat‘s the bottom line.”

JOBS from page 1

Industry FacesDecreased Numberof Skilled Workers tractors say they are having trouble finding skilled workersor subcontractors that can supply such workers.” Nevada experienced the largest percentage increase in

construction employment between July 2013 and July 2014(13.4 percent, 7,500 construction jobs), followed byDelaware (13.3 percent, 2,600 jobs) and Florida (11.1 per-cent, 40,600 jobs). Florida again led all states in the numberof construction jobs added in the latest 12 months, followedby Texas (23,600 jobs, 3.8 percent) and California (22,600jobs, 3.6 percent). The District of Columbia and 11 states shed construction

jobs during the past twelve months, with New Jersey againlosing the highest percentage and total (minus 6.5 percent,minus 8,900 jobs). Other states that lost a high percentage ofjobs include West Virginia (minus 5.8 percent, minus 2,000jobs), Mississippi (minus 5.6 percent, minus 2,900 jobs) andArizona (minus 4.8 percent, minus 5,900 jobs). Arizona lostthe second-highest number of construction jobs during theyear, followed by Mississippi, then West Virginia.Delaware had the largest percentage gain (5.7 percent,

1,200 jobs) among the 34 states that added constructionworkers to payrolls between June and July. Other statesadding large percentages of workers in the month includedAlabama (4.9 percent, 3,800 jobs), Kentucky (3.4 percent,2,200 jobs), New Mexico (3.1 percent, 1,200 jobs), andVirginia (2.6 percent, 4,700 jobs). Virginia added the mostworkers during the month, followed by Florida (4,400 jobs,1.1 percent), Texas (4,000 jobs, 0.6 percent) and Alabama. Fifteen states and D.C. lost construction jobs between

June and July, while construction employment wasunchanged in Rhode Island. California lost the most con-struction jobs during the month (minus 6,400 jobs, minus 1.0percent). Other states with large monthly declines in totalconstruction employment included New York (minus 3,500jobs, minus 1.1 percent), Georgia (minus 1,500 jobs, minus1.0 percent), Nebraska (minus 1,400 jobs, minus 3.0 per-cent) and Kansas (minus 1,100 jobs, minus 1.8 percent).Nebraska had the highest monthly percentage decline, fol-lowed by West Virginia (minus 1.8 percent, minus 600 jobs)and Kansas. Association officials said it is encouraging that a large

majority of states added construction jobs for the year andthe month. However, they cautioned that construction firmsin many parts of the country appear to be experiencing vary-ing amounts of labor shortages. They said that while workershortages appear most severe in fast-growing states likeColorado and Texas, there is still time for elected officials toact on the association’s workforce development suggestionsbefore shortages become more widespread. “We are at real risk of going from a situation where firms

couldn’t hire because there wasn’t enough demand to firmsnot being able to hire because there aren’t enough qualifiedworkers,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chiefexecutive officer.

New VF 500 Proves Ideal for Commercial ApplicationsStability and variability are not mutually

exclusive, as the front-mounted extendingscreed from Vögele proves. This screed hasbeen specially developed for Vision paversand is an ideal tool for commercial applica-tions with multivariable width requirements,such as parking lots with multiple trafficislands and light poles, residential and citystreets with storm sewers, gas and watermains, intersections on major highway, orcounty roads with multiple obstructions.The variability also is evidenced in the

range of possible profiles: crowns, trans-verse slopes and berms are set once and thenbuilt perfectly from the start to the end of thepaving process.

High Precision Across the FullPaving Width

As with every extending screed fromVögele, the VF 500 also has a particularlyrobust guide system. Due to its sturdydesign, it features excellent stability, even ifthe paving width varies continually, accord-ing to the manufacturer. The L-shaped main frame is an important

element in this context. On the one hand, itshigh rigidity prevents the screed from warp-ing in a longitudinal or transverse direction.At the same time, it permits a controlled tor-sion of the screed as required for certainpaving tasks. Stable guidance of the exten-sions is always guaranteed, despite this per-mitted torsion. As the guide system ismounted on the VF 500 at an outward posi-tion, the torsion of the main frame is nevertransferred to this guide system.A valuable practice-related feature of the

front-mounted screed is the ability to movethe extensions in or out at different speeds asrequired. Pressing the button on the opera-tor’s ErgoPlus console briefly permits partic-ularly precise control, e.g. along an edge.The button must be pressed and held formore rapid extension or retraction. As aresult, screed width control is performedwith highest precision to obtain an absolute-ly straight pavement edge.The powerful hydraulic system controls

each extension separately, ensuring thatample power is always available to movethem as required. The fact that the VF 500

can be extended absolutely symmetricallyon both sides enhances variability on the jobdue to independence of the paving direction.

Unbeatable Profile VariabilityA wide range of pavement profiles is pos-

sible with this front-mounted extendingscreed. The profile can be set independentlyof the extensions’ adjustment in height,ensuring the greatest degree of variability.Slopes of up to 10 percent are possible andthere is no need to readjust the road profile atany time while paving.The optional berm is available in widths

of 12, 18 or 24 in. (30.5, 45.7 or 61 cm). Dueto the smart design of the screeds, the bermalso remains stable at all times. The zero-position is maintained without a

need to permanently apply pressure to theberm. The screed can be fitted for variousdifferent berm widths on the right-hand and

left-hand sides. Contractors can choosefreely when placing their orders.Every extension has its own adjusting

mechanisms for the independent setting ofheight, slope and angle of attack. Theangle of attack of each screed extension isvery easy to set even with bolt-on exten-

sions fitted. Not only is the bull-nose of the screed plate raisedduring the adjustment process, butthe entire frame of the screedplate is pivoted around a definedpoint — a special feature of theVF 500 extending screed.

Innovative Screed Heating System

Over decades, Vögele has gaineda wealth of experience in electricscreed heating, which has beeninstalled in all screeds since 1952.It is the combination of many

years’ experience and continuous furtherdevelopment that resulted in the innovativeheating system for our screeds, according tothe manufacturer. Electric heating providesthat the screed plates are heated to an idealtemperature for paving. While paving, theheat output is controlled automatically.

Easy Operation, Excellent ViewVögele’s VF 500 extending screed is

extremely easy to operate due to ErgoPlus.Both the paver operator’s and the screedoperators’ workstations are ergonomicallydesigned. The height of the screed consolecan be adjusted. It also can be turned toselect an ideal working position. All func-tions are logically arranged on the console.An additional remote control is provided.What’s more, the compact design of thescreed ensures that the operator always hasan optimum view of the material flow —including augers, bolt-on extensions and endgates.For more information, visit

ered by the Tier IV Interim JCB Ecomaxengine delivering 125 hp (93 kW). Key features include: • Tier IV Interim JCB Ecomax engines

delivering up to 10 percent fuel savings• No DPF for low cost of ownership along

with no downtime for regeneration• Smooth drum or pad-foot models avail-

able for compaction of all soil types• Several compaction analysis systems

available as options for the VM117 • All-round visibility and serviceability

Improved Soil Compaction Solution

The VM117D has an operating weight of11 tons (10 t) and comes equipped standardwith a smooth drum. Padfoot version isavailable along with an optional levelingblade. Representing the largest segment insoil compaction, this single drum vibratorycompactor has been developed for a widerange of compaction applications in all kindsof road building and infrastructure projects.For operation in cohesive soil, the pad footversion is available, or the standard smoothdrum can be equipped with a two piece shellkit for increased versatility.Enhancements have been made to the

compaction specifications, including ampli-tude, frequency, centrifugal force, static lin-ear load and weight distribution, resulting infewer passes being required to achieve thematerial density requirements. JCB’s automatic vibration control (AVC)

automatic compaction control system,which avoids over-compaction at the end ofeach pass, is a standard feature of theVM117D. A comprehensive range of com-paction recording systems (Comptronic)also is available, from a basic compactioncontrol system to a sophisticated compactionanalysis system, which combines with GPStracking and a printer function to document

the entire project. The spacious cab delivers an increased

level of visibility to the rear of the machineand to the drum edges. This increases opera-tional safety, especially when working inconfined areas and improves productivity.Significantly reduced noise levels make theVM117D the quietest compactors in the

JCB line-up, according to the manufacturer. JCB soil compactors are known for ease

of serviceability and build quality. Thisrobust durability and ease of serviceabilityhas been further improved in the new gener-ation of machines, due to a simplified single-piece exciter system, robust IP69 standardelectrical systems, a maintenance-free center

joint, pre-loaded rubber mountings and allservice check points easily accessible fromground level.For more information, visit

Topcon Advances to P-32 System With Variety of ComponentsTopcon Positioning Group

announced advances to its P-32asphalt paving system with newcomponents including the ST-3sonic tracker, anti-vibration slopesensor and a firmware update tothe full-color, graphical displayGC-35 control box. “The P-32 paver system was

built to improve smoothness,ensure accurate slope and materialthickness and provide unmatchedoperator ease-of-use,” said Kris

Maas, machine control productmarketing manager. “Announcedin 2013, the P-32 saves time andimproves safety by allowing anoperator to view elevation andslope values of the screed from asingle control box. With these newcomponents, this state-of-the-art2D control system will continue toimprove the speed and quality ofasphalt paving.” The ST-3 sonic tracker is

designed to enhance position indi-

cation on string lines, give a widerrange of linear detection and workbetter in tight areas. “The introduction of the ST-3

sonic tracker will increase produc-tivity for users by providingsmoother surface detections,” saidMaas. “The smoother it can be, thefaster the job will be finished.” The new slope sensor to the P-

32 system is designed to increaseaccuracy in the most challengingconditions. “This new slope sen-

sor is amazingly resistant to vibra-tions and provides stable operationwithin dynamic temperatureranges,” said Maas. A firmware upgrade to the GC-

35 full-color, graphical displaycontrol box provides enhancedslope accuracy data. “The cross slope value will be

displayed even when the controlbox is set in elevation controlmode on both sides, which takesthe guess work out of knowing

whether the cross slope is correct.Additionally, block slope calibra-tion protects users from accidentlychanging the slope sensor whilethe P-32 system is in operation,”said Maas. For more information, visit top-

Improved Rumble Strip Cutter Provides High ProductivityWirtgen America’s new high-perform-

ance rumble strip cutter, the W 50 DCirumbler, is a standard W 50 DCi coldmilling machine with an optional rumblerattachment installed, providing high-pro-duction, high-profitability cutting of milledrumble strips in the standard, preferred 16-in. (40.6 cm) width at speeds of up to 180fpm (54.8 mpm). The W 50 DCi drivingunit is Tier IV Interim-compliant.Without the rumbler installed, the deep-

cutting W 50 DCi cuts 8 in. (20 cm) deepand a variety of widths up to 20 in. (50.8cm). Its 127 hp diesel engine, combinedwith a more robust 17,000-lb. (7,711 kg)design, 10-in. (25.4 cm) turning radius andstandard rear loading conveyor, makes thisa premier performer in the utility class,according to the manufacturer.Addition of the Wirtgen rumble strip

milling attachment makes the W 50 DCieven more valuable to an owner. Togetherthey result in a durable, reliable cold millfor general milling use, combined with amilling technology for cutting milled rum-ble strips in shoulders, or down centerlinesof two-way pavements.The W 50 DCi rumbler features a six-

sided rumble wheel with urethane pads,powered by a hydraulic rumble wheel

drive. The rumbler drum and wheel can bemounted on either the left- or right-handside of the W 50 DCi, with easy cutteraccess.The W 50 DCi rumbler cutter drive is an

extension of the W 50 DCi’s standard drumdrive system, using a mechanical belt drive,which has proven more efficient and reli-

able than hydraulic drive.A simple wheel/pad assembly rolls along

the pavement surface to actuate the rumblersub-frame in and out of the cut. Customdrum widths and pad sets are available.Special patterns can be achieved with spe-cial rumble wheel pads; intermittent pat-terns can be achieved with the available

skip line kit. For optimal cutting, W1-10/S-R Rhino bits can be used.A standard, long front pointer is designed

for stable, accurate correction when on thejob, essential for tracking intermittent refer-ences like the pavement “drip” line or acenterline. A short pointer also is installedas a standard. Both provide a dual refer-ence, which can give the operator a bettersense of the W 50 DCi’s rumbler’s position. The Federal Highway Administration’s

Technical Advisory (T 5040.35) endorsesshoulder rumble strips for driver safetyfrom run-off-road events, and maintainsthat milled-in strips are the best option.FHWA said milled rumble strips are superi-or because they have little or no effect onthe integrity of the pavement structure, andproduce greater noise and vibration thanrolled or formed rumble strips While rumble strips can be rolled-in for

Vögele Screeds Offer WideRange of Job Applications

Vögele’s new AB 500 and AB 600extending screeds and their permutationshave an infinitely variable single-tube tele-scoping system for an immense range of jobapplications with pave widths from 6.5 to 31ft. (2 to 9.5 m). The screeds match with allthe Super pavers featuring a basic width of8.3 and 9.8 ft. (2.55 and 3 m).In addition, they also can be equipped

with various compaction systems, includingtamper technology, depending on the pavermodel and application. The large number ofpossible combinations and different com-paction options open up an almost limitlessrange of job applications for the extendingscreeds.Pavement quality is further enhanced by

technical innovations in the AB 500 and AB600 which make the screeds easy to operate.These include easily and precisely adjustablehydraulic side plates, as well as hydrauliccrown adjustment, which is integrated as astandard feature, and can be adjusted direct-ly from the screed console. Wear resistanceof the screed plates also has been improved,the time required to heat up the screed short-ened, and the tamper geometry optimized.All these features make for better com-paction and evenness, according to the man-ufacturer.The new screeds are distinguished by

vibration-damped middle stairs or ascent.The ascent is comfortably designed with lowsteps and an additional hinged step.Optimum working conditions are essen-

tial, especially for the screed operator. Thenew screed consoles of the Dash 3 pavergeneration include a number of innovativefeatures to assist the operator.The high-contrast four-color display with

screen guarantees optimum visibility fromall angles. The clear menu structure withnew pop-up menus and the intuitive, lan-guage-neutral symbols make operation par-ticularly safe and simple. Both the left- andright-hand side of each screed can be con-trolled from each screed console.Vögele’s new screed console is specially

designed for nighttime operation. To preventoperator errors, the buttons light up as soonas dusk falls or in darkness. What's more, thenew high-power LED lighting gives theoperator a perfect view of all processes asso-ciated with the side plate. It has a light inten-sity of 1 lux and illuminates distances of upto 3.3 ft. (1 m).For more information, call 615/501-0600

expressed concern that the proposal wouldlead to an increase in the number of employ-ers who adopt practices that discourageemployees from reporting recordableinjuries and illnesses. OSHA is concernedthat the accuracy of the data collected underthe new proposal could be compromised ifemployers adopt these practices.“OSHA wants to make sure that employ-

ers, employees and the public have access tothe most accurate data about injuries and ill-nesses in their workplaces so that they cantake the most appropriate steps to protectworker safety and health,” said AssistantSecretary of Labor of Occupational Safetyand Health David Michaels.Therefore, OSHA is soliciting comments

on whether to amend the proposed rule to: 1)require that employers inform their employ-

ees of their right to report injuries and ill-nesses; 2) more clearly communicate therequirement that any injury and illnessreporting requirements established by theemployer be reasonable and not unduly bur-densome; and 3) provide OSHA an addition-al remedy to prohibit employers from takingadverse action against employees for report-ing injuries and illnesses.Individuals interested in submitting com-

ments may do so electronically athttp://www.regulations.gov, the federal e-Rulemaking Portal. Comments also may besubmitted via mail or fax. See the FederalRegister notice for details.For more information, visit
