As construction contractors work through the coronavirus pandemic, many are keeping an eye on the pandemic’s effect on their risk management policies. The basic question: What will COVID’s impact be on insurance? Get ahead of the curve now to avoid a hitch in commercial coverage next year. The North American Excavation Shoring Association (NAXSA)

Insurance carriers are reconsidering how much more risk they are willing to take on and how they are going to reduce their own exposure.

notes that while historical losses led to current insurance price increases and reduced limits, a potential industry correction due to COVID-19 may be ahead.

RB SCOTT FOUNDER, RALPH SCOTT, PASSES AWAY AT AGE 93

Ralph Byron Scott, age 93, of Eau Claire, Wis., died peacefully at home on Dec. 6, 2020, in Eau Claire. He was born on Sept. 21, 1927, to Ralph L. and Mollie H. (Oelke) Scott in Eau Claire.

ERB EQUIPMENT’S DICK CHRIST RETIRES AFTER 52 YEARS OF SERVICE

MNDOT AWARDS $61M TO IMPROVE FREIGHT TRANSPORTATION NETWORK

The Minnesota Department of Transportation awarded $61 million in funding for 13 highway infrastructure projects that will improve freight mobility, safety and first- and last-mile freight connections throughout Minnesota.

The Blanchette Missouri River Bridge is undergoing a major rehabilitation. The $35 million project is necessary due to the age of the bridge, which opened in 1978. The last repairs were completed in 2006.

Once the acquisition process is completed, the group’s affiliate Hyundai Construction Equipment, combined with Doosan Infracore, will become the No. 5 player in the global construction machinery market, according to HHIG.

Husqvarna Construction Products is consolidating its brand portfolio in the surface preparation segment. HTC products, services and solutions will therefore be rebranded as Husqvarna and integrated into the global Husqvarna offering.

Serious progress is occurring on the Illinois Department of Transportation’s $48,038,549.23 north contract for the I-55 Interchange at Weber Road project as Judlau Construction Inc. crews have put in a solid effort since spring 2019.

Pavement professionals are used to bumps in the road. Over the last nine months, the entire world has felt the weight of a global pandemic, and that burden has reached organizers at the National Pavement Expo and Conference.

RB Scott Founder, Ralph Scott, Passes Away at Age 93 Ralph Byron Scott, age 93, of Eau Claire, Wis., died peacefully at home on Dec. 6, 2020, in Eau Claire. He was born on Sept. 21, 1927, to Ralph L. and Mollie H. (Oelke) Scott in Eau Claire. He married Norma L. Merrick on Sept. 19, 1954, at Central Lutheran Church in Minneapolis, Minn. He was a member of Our Savior’s Lutheran Church (now Spirit Lutheran) in Eau Claire. Mr. Scott attended school in Eau Claire and graduated at the age of 17 from Eau Claire Senior High School in 1945. Prior to graduation, he and several of his classmates travelled to Chippewa Falls, Wis., where they took the Eddy Test for radio technician training, in preparation for the anticipated invasion of Japan to end the war with the Japanese in WWII. They all passed the Eddy Test and deferred their enlistment until after high school graduation. Following graduation, they took the train to Great Lakes Naval Training Center in Great Lakes, Ill., for boot camp. Upon completion of boot camp, Mr. Scott entered Radio Technician school in Chicago. The program ended in September 1945, due to conclusion of the war. He returned to Great Lakes and subsequently shipped out to the Naval Aviation Base in Lakehurst, N.J., which was the blimp station where the German dirigible Hindenburg exploded and burned prior to WWII. Mr. Scott was honorably discharged from the Navy in 1945, and immediately re-enlisted in the US Naval Reserves. He was commissioned as an Ensign in 1952. When he retired from the service in 1966, he was honorably discharged with the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. After discharge from the regular Navy, he attended Eau Claire Teachers College. He then transferred to Colorado School of Mines in Golden, Colo., to study geological engineering. He finished his education at UW Madison, where he obtained his Bachelor of Science degree in petroleum geology. After college, Mr. Scott worked as a field engineer for George A. Fuller Company in Chicago. While there, he and another engineer created a topographical map of the more than 1,000 acres where a new power plant was to be built in Hennepin, Ill. Following his employment at Fuller, Mr. Scott worked in sales training for Dearborn Chemical Company, also in Chicago. He then moved to Minneapolis, Minn., to work in the industrial development department of Northern States Power Company (NSP). Mr. Scott was approached by Northwestern National Bank (now Wells Fargo) of Minneapolis to help create an industrial development department within the bank. He became the assistant director of industrial development, eventually becoming assistant vice president of that division. While at the bank, Mr. Scott was approached to enter the aggregate industry as a co-founder and partner in Durex Products, a completely new start-up venture. The partners purchased the old Duncan Yo-Yo plant in Luck, Wis., and turned it into a woven wire screen production facility with heavy steel looms from Germany. In 1976, Mr. Scott and his wife formed RB Scott Company. Mrs. Scott managed the office and Mr. Scott travelled the upper Midwest weekly as the sole salesman. Their core vendors were leaders in the aggregate and mining industry. Mr. Scott loved the challenges of the aggregate industry along with the customers and vendors with whom he became great friends. They received many awards from

the companies they represented as rewards for their sales efforts over years of hard work and success. Upon his retirement in December 1992, their daughter Nancy and her husband John Mickelson purchased the company. In 2014, RB Scott Company was named Small Business of the Year in Eau Claire, by the Eau Claire Chamber of Commerce. In 2013, the Scotts were invited to Munich, Germany, to attend bauma, the world’s largest construction and mining equipment exposition. There, as co-founders of the RB Scott Company, they were presented with the Pioneer Award for introducing the new German-designed polyurethane screen surfaces for use by the construction and mining companies to the United States. The award was presented by TEMA Isenmann. Mr. Scott was a Boy Scout and achieved the rank of Life Scout. When leaders of the troops had to leave in service for their country in WWII, he was asked to help lead his troop and in doing so, missed the opportunity to achieve Eagle Scout. In 2019, he received an honorary Eagle Scout from the Chippewa Valley Council — Boy Scouts of America, in recognition of his service to the scouts. Mr. Scott was a member of American Legion Post 53 in Eau Claire for the past 22 years; past member of the American Industrial Development Council; the Great Lakes States Industrial Development Council; the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, where he chaired the Industrial committee and was a member of the Natural Resources Committee. He was the assistant secretary and manager of Valley Industrial Park. He was a member of the Chemical Marketing Research Association; president of Gopher Toastmasters in Minneapolis; Past Master Counselor of DeMolay, a recipient of the Chevalier Degree in DeMolay; a member of the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity at Colorado School of Mines and UW-Madison. In 1998, Mr. Scott was inducted into the ski organization at St. Christoph, Austria, named Brüderschaft, an organization in the Arlberg region of the Austrian Alps, where they inducted people especially active in the skiing fraternity. Mr. Scott is survived by his wife of 66 years, Norma; daughters, Susan (James) Squiers of Savage, Minn., Nancy (John) Mickelson of Eau Claire, and Patricia McCown of Eau Claire; his grandchildren, Katherine (Shaughnessy) Murphy of Eau Claire, Scott Mickelson of Plymouth, Minn., and Mollie McCown of Eau Claire; step-grandchildren Cassandra Koenig of Chaska, Minn., Nicholas (Vanessa) Squiers of Chanhassen, Minn., Derek McCown and Caitlin McCown, both of San Antonio, Texas; three great-grandsons; eight step-great-grandchildren; special cousin Diane (John) Dingman of LaCrosse, Wis.; and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; a newborn sister; son-in-law, Mark McCown; father-in-law and mother-in-law, Alton and Anna Merrick; brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Jack and Shirley Wicklund; brother-in-law, Donald Merrick; and cousin Robert (Dolores) Smith.

Erb Equipment’s Dick Christ Retires After 52 Years of Service By Katherine Devlin CEG EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

While the world bids adieu to 2020, Dick Christ, store manager of Erb Equipment in Owensboro, Ky., will be spending his first moments as a retired man. Christ is calling it a career on Dec. 31 after nearly 53 years in the heavy equipment business. “I began my career in heavy equipment in June of 1968 working for a five-year-old John Deere dealer — K & W Equipment — working five and a half days a week while attending Brescia College nights and weekends,” recalled Christ. “I fulfilled a promise to my father, the finest man I've ever known, and graduated but not in four years.” Although he received his formal education at Brescia, Christ credits the four summers from 1963 to 1967 he spent working at a small hotel in the Catskill Mountains of New York with teaching him the most important lesson — customer service. “I worked seven days a week, three meals a day for 10 weeks each summer and eventually became head waiter at the age of 19,” he said. “Working for 'tips' I learned a lot about people and that the most important thing was customer service. For 52 and a half years, customer service has been my primary goal. My mother, whom I often quote, and Bob Erb had a saying that I have always try to live by: ‘Treat others as you would like to be treated’.”

Dick Christ was hired in June 1968 by K & W Equipment. During his 41 years, he worked in parts, sales, was the store manager and served as president for more than 20 years. In 2009, K & W was purchased by Erb Equipment Company. He has continued to serve customers for 11 years.

Christ was hired in June 1968 by K & W Equipment. During his 41 years, he worked in parts, sales, was the store manager and served as president for more than 20 years. In 2009, K & W was purchased by Erb Equipment Company. He has continued to serve customers for 11 years. “They offered me a position as branch manager of Owensboro and I accepted, a decision I have never regretted,” said Christ. “One

of Bob Erb’s famous sayings was, 'I want to make this the best place you have ever worked' and for myself and many others that was a very true statement.” Over the years, Christ has seen John Deere, as well as the industry, evolve. He cites radical model changes, peaks and valleys in the economy, outrageously high interest rates and one of the biggest challenges — COVID-19 —as some of the biggest obstacles he

has faced. “John Deere went from the new kid on the block to first place in many markets and they continue to make huge strides every year,” he said. “Through the years we have managed to survive by taking care of our customers in the bad times and not taking advantage of them in the good times.” “Dick has been a part of Erb for over 11 years and we can’t thank him enough for all his contributions. He was there when Erb Equipment Owensboro started and helped grow it to the thriving business it is today. We want to thank Dick for his dedication to the Erb team, and we wish him a wonderful retirement,” said Carrie Roider, CEO and Gregg Erb, president of Erb Equipment. As 2020 and Christ’s career draw to a close, he expressed his gratitude to those who helped him achieve this milestone. “I want to thank the Erb family for allowing me to extend my career for the last 11 years by giving me this opportunity, and thanks to our employees and customers, many of whom have become life-long friends,” he said. “I want to especially thank my family for their patience over the years. I have never missed a tennis match for my daughter or any school function for Erb Equipment’s Dick Christ is call- my son, and have always tried ing it a career on Dec. 31 after near- to live up to the standards set ly 53 years in the heavy equipment down for me as a husband and business. father by my parents.”  CEG

Indiana Officials Award $101M for Local Road Projects Gov. Eric J. Holcomb and Indiana Department of Transportation Commissioner Joe McGuinness announced 241 Indiana cities, towns and counties received a combined $101 million in state matching funds for local road projects through Community Crossings, a component of the governor’s Next Level Roads program. “As we navigate through the challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re as committed as ever to improving and building our state’s infrastructure. I’m incredibly pleased that we’re able to fund all

of the high-priority local road projects submitted in this round. Taking care of our local roads is key to making sure our communities remain attractive places to grow businesses and create careers,” said Holcomb. The Community Crossings Initiative has provided more than $830 million in state matching funds for construction projects. In response to revenue uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, INDOT moved this call for projects, originally scheduled for July, to September. The $101 million award is funded by the balance available in the state’s local road and bridge matching grant fund at

the end of the 2020 fiscal year as well as revenue collected so far in the 2021 fiscal year. “This is a tremendous win for our local partners,” McGuinness said. “Our continued partnership with Hoosier communities will deliver more high priority local road projects in the coming year, many of which have been in planning for months or even years and wouldn’t be able to move forward now without the state’s funding commitment.” To qualify for funding, local governments must provide local matching funds — 50 percent for larger communities or 25 percent for smaller communities — from a funding

source approved for road and bridge construction. They also must submit an INDOTapproved asset management plan for maintaining existing roads and bridges. State law requires annually that 50 percent of the available matching funds be awarded to communities within counties with a population of 50,000 or fewer. State lawmakers identified long-term funding for Community Crossings as part of House Enrolled Act 1002, passed by the legislature and signed into law by Holcomb in April 2017.

MoDOT’s Blanchette Missouri River Bridge Undergoes $35M Rehabilitation Hyundai Heavy to Acquire Stake in Doosan Infracore The Blanchette Missouri River Bridge is undergoing a $35 million major rehabilitation.

There are at least six paint crews with local contractor KCI at work daily on the half-mile long bridge. Their job is made somewhat easier by the “safe span,” an underside or secondThe Blanchette Missouri River Bridge is undergoing a ary bridge that makes barges and manlifts unnecessary. While the most significant work is painting — including major rehabilitation that has restricted the five-lane eastbound bridge to just two lanes. The $35 million project is 16 spans of steel plate girders — the project also calls for the necessary due to the age of the bridge, which opened in replacement of expansion joints, which Tuerck noted “take a beating,” and the encapsulation of barrier walls. 1978.

The two sides aim to conclude the main contract by the end of 2020 after two to three weeks of additional negotiations. Hyundai Heavy Industries Group (HHIG) has been selected as the preferred bidder to acquire Doosan Infracore. Once the acquisition process is completed, the group’s affiliate Hyundai Construction Equipment, combined with Doosan Infracore, will become the No. 5 player in the global construction machinery market, according to HHIG. Doosan Group selected the HHIG-KDB Investment Consortium as the preferred bidder and reported it to its creditors, including Korea Development Bank. The two sides aim to conclude the main contract by the end of 2020 after two to three weeks of additional negotiations. HHIG will acquire a 36.07 percent stake in Doosan Infracore, excluding Doosan Bobcat. The acquisition price is said to be in the mid-700 billion won range, which is lower than the market’s initial estimate of 800 billion won to 1 trillion won. Analysts said that the two companies will be able to generate synergies as their main markets are different. Doosan Infracore fares well in China while Hyundai Construction Equipment excels in India and Russia. Doosan Infracore sold 15,766 excavators in China in the first 10 months of 2020, the best performance since 2010 when China’s construction industry enjoyed a boom. But the corporate combination should pass the Korean Fair Trade Commission’s approval process. When the two companies combine, the unified company’s share of the domestic market exceeds 50 percent. The two have the largest and second largest shares in the Korean construction machinery market. 

Earthwork, Demo Proceed on IDOT’s $48M I-55 Project

Prairie Material is providing some of the concrete being poured for the project.

By Irwin Rapoport CEG CORRESPONDENT

Serious progress is occurring on the Illinois Department of Transportation’s (IDOT) $48,038,549.23 north contract for the I-55 Interchange at Weber Road project as Judlau Construction Inc. crews have put in a solid effort since spring 2019. They have quickly advanced from the pre-stage phase to the demolition of the eastbound bridge on the existing interchange, as well as engaging in earth work and other heavy construction activities, to meet the fall 2022 delivery date. IDOT awarded the contract to Judlau in 2018. The plan was to start the operation in October 2018, but utility relocation delayed the operations. Commonwealth Edison (ComEd) completed the switching of power from the existing lines to new lines and services in 2019, and self-performed the removal of existing system. The removal of aerial cable over I-55 was accomplished last spring. The pre-stage work had crews remove median barrier along I-55 within the staging area and engage in earth work operations that included topsoil stripping, embankment and aggregate sub-base installation for temporary pavement. Since then, crews have completed the following: stage 1 piers, abutments, pavement removal, embankment, ramp removal, subbase, subgrade and electrical, and they continue with storm sewer installation, and road, bridge and interchange activities. The work zone for the entire project, the north and south segments, runs from 119th Street north/Rodeo Road of the interchange to 135th Street/Romeo Road to the south and 0.5 mi. east and west of Weber along I-55. The reconstruction and widening of the concrete road is taking place in Will County and within the villages of Romeoville and Bolingbrook. The north contract work zone covers 1.55

mi. of road in Romeoville and Bolingbrook from Normantown Road to 115th Street, including the intersections at Rodeo Drive/Remington Boulevard, Remington Boulevard/Windham Parkway, Lakeview Drive and Normantown Road. Advance tree removal was completed in November 2017. “A time extension was granted due to delays in relocating utility lines,” IDOT officials told Construction Equipment Guide. “Based on the new completion date, the project is on schedule.” Weber Road, a north-south artery with two lanes in each direction, is being rebuilt to have three lanes each direction. The existing interchange is being reconstructed as a diverging diamond interchange (DDI). Crews also are reconstructing I-55 ramps; building dual bridge structures and retaining wall; installing interconnected traffic signals through the interchange, sidewalks and a 10ft. wide shared-use path; overhead sign structures; CCTV cameras and fiber-optic connection and continuous LED roadway lighting with four high mast light towers; putting in an enclosed drainage system with in-line detention, signage, and pavement markings; and various intersection improvements. In addition to new lanes, Normantown Road will have new dual left turn lanes for southbound and eastbound traffic and right turn lanes for three legs of the intersection. Fence stone sound walls are being placed adjacent to residential areas. The Weber Rd. mainline will consist of a 12-ft. aggregate subgrade and a 10.25-in. PCC pavement (jointed). For the expressway ramps, there will be a 12-ft. aggregate subgrade; 8-ft. HMA binder course; 2.25-in. polymerized HMA binder; a 2-in. polymer-

ized HMA surface; and a 12.25-in. HMA pavement. The side street pavement widening and resurfacing will have a 12-ft. aggregate subgrade; 8.75-in. HMA binder course; .75-in. polymerized HMA leveling binder; and a 1.25-in. HMA surface. “The purpose of the project is to address safety, operational and capacity deficiencies in the Interstate 55 and Weber Road Interchange project study area,” stated an IDOT web page. “This section of Weber Road and the interchange with I-55 are critical commuting links for the region and serve a number of businesses and industries locally.” The interchange was built in 1990 when much of the area around Weber Road was primarily used by farmers and motorists from nearby residential subdivisions. “Since 1990, the population in Will County has nearly doubled, making it one of the fastest growing counties in the nation,” stated the project web page. “The interchange and roadway are congested and traffic volumes are anticipated to continue to increase as growth continues in the region. In 2009, Will County completed a feasibility study of possible improvements to the interchange.” Stage 1 is ongoing and will see the reconstruction of the west half of Weber Road, construction of a new northbound bridge and ramp construction. Stage 2, fall of 2020 throughout 2021, will focus on the reconstruction of the eastern half of Weber Road, reconstruction of an existing bridge deck for future southbound traffic and ramp reconstruction. Stage 3, to start in 2021, will see the construction of new medians, complete ramp reconstruction and complete the installation of sidewalks and the multi-use path in

the bridge area. Stage 4, the cleanup and punch list phase, will occur between the fall of 2021 and summer of 2022. For the pre-stage work, Judlau crews prepared the site for major construction via median removal; the installation of temporary pavement, traffic signals and storm sewer; and utility relocation. Key milestones for the 2020 construction season are: building a new bridge for future northbound traffic and completing the southbound lanes on Weber Road. Much of the work centers on the interchange. “The biggest challenge so far was getting all of the utilities relocated so work could begin on the new construction,” stated IDOT construction officials. “ComEd experienced unanticipated challenges when they began transferring power to their relocated facilities. This, in turn, caused delays to the start of construction on the south half of the project. To help keep the project on track, we implemented the work zone on the north half of the project where ComEd no longer had conflicts.” Judlau crews completed the demolition work for Stage 1 — the westbound bridge on the interchange — and have started the substructure work. Night work has been minimal, but night shifts were scheduled to remove the deck and beams. IDOT noted that it has a solid working relationship with Judlau, particularly in keeping the project moving on schedule. The earth work operations are proceeding smoothly, with no major challenges expected. This work will continue for the duration of the project. Materials are brought in from outside sources to meet all structural requirements. see PROGRESS page 80

MnDOT received 34 applications requesting a total of $178 million during this second round of MHFP funding. Each project was scored using freight data such as truck counts, truck

travel times, proposed crash rate reduction, facility access and project readiness. The highest scoring projects were selected from the Twin Cities Metro area and Greater Minnesota. Funding for the MHFP comes from the federal Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act, commonly known as the FAST Act. For more information, visit mndot.gov/ofrw/mhfp/. 

Construction Historian Edgar A. Browning Dies at Age 68 Mr. Browning would publish many books, including “Road Building Construction Equipment at Work,” focusing on New England, Connecticut, Maine, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio and more.

Edgar A. Browning and his wife, Peggy. Mr. Browning recently passed away at the age of 68.

Edgar August Browning, retired sergeant homicide detective with Hampton Police Department CAP Unit and occasional contributor to Construction Equipment Guide (CEG), recently passed away at the age of 68 Mr. Browning served in the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy Seabees Reserve and his community in the Hampton City police department. He was a business owner and an author of several roadbuilding books and Shovel Magazine. Mr. Browning also occasionally shared his extensive historical construction photography with CEG for publication in print and online. Mr. Browning was born and raised in New England, specifically, Woonsocket, R.I., an old French-Canadian mill town bisected by the meandering Blackstone River. The river had once provided power for the many textile mills. In August 1955, the city was ravaged by a devastating flood due to heavy rainfall from the remnants of Hurricane Diane. The water treatment plant was compromised by the floodwaters.

Browning’s earliest childhood recollection was walking with his family to the National Guard Armory for drinking water. “I was not quite three years old and it was a two-mile trek. Large glass jugs were being filled for residents from military water buffaloes. We walked to the banks of the river by the South Main Street Bridge,” Browning told CEG in 2015. “The rushing water was overtopping the double stone arch structure built in the 1800s. It would be one of the few bridges remaining when the flood water subsided.” In the years that followed, the destroyed bridges were being rebuilt and a massive flood control project completed under the auspices of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. There was plenty of scenery for a budding sidewalk superintendent. The experience cemented Mr. Browning’s future endeavors. Thus began Mr. Browning’s lifelong fascination and devotion to the heavy iron of his youth and his father’s youth. But he wouldn’t return to that hobby until decades

later, after he had put dozens of murderers and rapists in prison. Browning dedicated his early life to the U.S. Army followed by a 29year-career in police work. Mr. Browning would eventually publish many books, including “Road Building Construction Equipment at Work,” focusing on New England, Connecticut, Maine, Virginia, Pennsylvania and in Ohio, as well as magazines and websites that he poured himself into after retirement. He was preceded in death by his parents, Edgar and Albertina Browning; and brother, David Browning. Mr. Browning is survived by his wife, Peggy; children, Edgar Jr. (Carol), Adam and Amy (Austin); stepchildren, Stephanie and Jennifer; grandchildren, Aubrey and Bean; sister, Albertina Browning Sullivan; sister-in-law, Mira Browning; nephews, David II, Dan and Jason; along with other relatives and friends. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Journey Christian Fellowship Church. #EDGARSTRONG  CEG

Expert Says It’s Vital to Partner With Broker in Industry INSURANCE from page 1

riers defaulting and pinching healthy carriers even more.” Blake Dickens, commercial lines producer and partner of HUB International Mid-South/Harris, Madden & Powell, Chicago, Ill., looks at four ways commercial insurance is affected: • The evolving role of the broker. “Our customers are looking to their broker for advice more than price these days,” wrote Dickens in a NAXSA article. “We are spending more time on consultative services than ever before.” He said topics most important to customers include COVID-19 privacy and liability employment issues, how to present as a best-inclass risk to underwriters, worker’s compensation eligibility, claims and coverage. “It has never been more important to partner with a broker that specializes in your industry, with risk services capabilities and strong carrier relationships,” he advised. • Increased scrutiny from underwriters. Underwriters are inquiring about every renewal, wrote Dickens. “Before taking risk on, underwriters want to know your business’ pandemic response.” What is your business’ level of exposure with COVID? What are you doing to mitigate it? “Underwriters will want to know that your business is healthy financially before writing new coverage or even renewing an existing policy,” he said. • COVID coverage is being addressed. Most COVID business interruption and property claims are denied based on the inability to prove COVID caused physical loss or damage. “Moving forward, most policies will have very specific language excluding pandemic coverage with COVID coverage most likely cited as well,” wrote Dickens. Where coverage is granted, it will be with specific sub limits and the customer will elect to “buy up,” he said. “There is also potential for a federal ‘backstop’ to address the concern at a catastrophic level.” • Businesses need to think profit and loss management. There is a good chance COVID-19 will further impact insurance costs,

Underwriters want to know that the construction business is healthy financially before writing new coverage or even renewing an existing policy.

said Dickens. “Prepare now. Look at every line item of your business’ profit and loss margins to see what can be redirected,” he suggested. “Have conversations around business strategy and maintain a conservative outlook on spending, while planning for higher insurance rates this year and in the immediate future.” Dickens said that the question still lingers: When will COVID-19 exposure catch up to the market? He is blunt in his assessment: “The answer is unknown.” As 2021 unfolds, “carriers, brokers and business owners alike will remain watchful for changes in exposure and its resulting effect on the commercial insurance market,” he added. Getting Ahead Times are unprecedented, and that has meant significant work disruption for construction con-

tractors across the country. Project shut-downs and suspensions, supply-chain delays, financing term changes and tossed procurement timetables are other issues contractors have had to face during the pandemic. Eugene Koster, construction lead with global advisory firm Willis Towers Watson, Arlington, Va., offers general insurance and risk-related advice. Engage in and maintain proactive dialogue with your broker and insurers about the status of ongoing projects, he suggests. “Insurance premiums may already have been priced into financial model for live bids,” he said. “In principle, these should not suffer variations directly as a result of the virus, [but] it is advisable to review as you near the bid submission date to ensure validity of terms where there is a delay. Check cancellation clauses. Also, be aware that physical dam-

age to or loss of your work directly caused by abandoning a building site might be argued by insurers. “A policyholder is obliged as per the policy conditions to prevent physical damage to occur,” even if a building site is abandoned, noted Koster. “Therefore, it is advisable if a building site is temporarily abandoned to take enough measurers in order to prevent damages to occur.” Delay in start-up extensions might be impacted by a delay in the project due to COVID-19. Consider closely any impact on the estimated date of delivery and on the project’s critical path, he urged. The insured is obliged to inform insurers in any circumstances that lead to an increase of the exposure for insurers. “If you feel COVID19 leads to such circumstances, please inform your insurance broker as soon as possible,” said Koster.

Once a project has been delivered or an insurance year has ended, there are often maximum periods for an insured to notify insurers about the final project value or final annual turnover. If contractors do not comply, insurers may be entitled to ask for 130 percent of the deposit premium due and deny any refund of premium. Under COVID-19 circumstances premiums due still need to be paid in time in order to avoid insurance covers to terminate leaving your balance sheet exposed. “Be aware of premium payment warranties. In certain countries under international programs the principle of “no cash no cover” applies. Eye on Market Decisions and responses from underwriters could take more time, see INSURANCE page 96

Caterpillar’s Cat Command Expands Loading to Small Wheel Loader Line Caterpillar announces the expansion of Cat Command for Loading to its small wheel loader line. Removing the operator from the machine, Command provides semi-autonomous remote operation of Cat 926M, 930M and 938M models to increase operating safety in potentially hazardous operating environments. New Cat Command for Loading for small wheel loaders will be available in both line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight operating configurations. By allowing the user to comfortably control the machine from a safe location, Command maintains high machine productivity in operating environments such as stevedoring, steel mill blast furnaces, industrial and waste as well as demolition and site decommissioning. A new dealer-installed field kit will make the Cat 926M, 930M and 938M models Command-ready. The system includes rear and side cameras, electric over hydraulic steering system and Command activation lever mounted conveniently on the machine for ground-level access. Installed on the cabin roof are cameras, indicator lights, microphone, wireless receiver and antenna. Since Command controls are integrated with machine electronics, users will experience the same control response as they would operating inside the cab, allowing for productivity to be maintained from a distance. Flexible Remote Configurations Line-of-sight Command for Loading operation comes complete with a lightweight, compact control console supported by a comfortable shoulder harness. Basic machine controls like wheel loader startup/shutdown, bucket rack/dump and lift/lower are easily accessed through the ergonomic Command console control layout. Machine com-

mands sent from the remote console are sent directly to the engine and implement electronics via a detected radio, reducing machine response delay. To ensure the user maintains machine control at all times, integrated Caterpillar electronics activate several safety features to stop all wheel loader movements if: A-stop or E-stop switch is pressed; wireless communication is lost; a severe fault is detected; or the Command console is tilted more than 60 degrees from normal operating position. Line-of-sight control with the Command console extends up to 437 yds. (400 m) to allow for convenient remote operation. The non-line-of-sight Command for Loading solution includes a modular, customized Command station that positions users in a familiar and comfortable seated position that simulates traditional machine control. One user can connect multiple machines from a single station, but only control one machine at a time. It is also compatible with other Command offerings for Cat equipment, such as excavators and dozers. Station components include machine joystick and foot pedal controls for all the company’s Command technology capable machines. A touchscreen mount is incorporated in the station design for machine control, while universal screen mounts are included for camera displays of the wheel loader. An emergency A-Stop or E-stop button is located on the Command station to quickly halt all machine movements. At the jobsite, an optional remote All-Stop control is available for people working around non-line-of-sight Command loaders. Command for Loading for Cat 926M, 930M and 938M wheel loaders will be available for purchase in late 2020. For more information about Cat Command for Loading, customers should contact their local dealer or visit: www.cat.com.  Command provides semi-autonomous remote operation of Cat 926M, 930M and 938M models to increase operating safety in potentially hazardous operating environments.

Compact track loaders can operate in places skid steers would struggle including uneven, muddy, sandy and snowy terrain.

Skid steers are great on harder surfaces like concrete and asphalt, especially when equipped with hard tires.

Differences in Skid Steer Loaders, Compact Track Loaders

How to Choose Between These Machines It’s easy to look at a skid steer and a CTL and assume the only difference between the two is tires versus tracks — but there’s much more to it than that, especially when it comes to deciding which one is needed on the job site.

By Jason Riley RDO EQUIPMENT COMPANY

It’s the most popular piece of equipment on construction jobsites. It has been and remains a consistent, high-selling machine in the construction industry. And it has been around for six decades. The skid steer loader is a must-have in virtually every construction fleet, from general builders to landscapers, and even those offering snow and ice management services. This small yet mighty machine proved to offer numerous benefits on various jobsites and gave way to inspire a new take on it: the compact track loader (CTL). Skid Steer or Compact Track Loader The CTL is designed to tackle tasks similar to that of a skid steer. Hallmarked by a tracked design instead of tires, it offers different operational abilities compared to its sister machine. It’s easy to look at a skid steer and a CTL and assume the only difference between the two is tires versus tracks — but there’s much more to it than that, especially when it comes to deciding which one is needed on the jobsite. Back to Basics The first step in deciding between a skid steer or compact track loader is to understand the basic features and traits of each, and how those translate into unique advantages on various jobsites. see LOADERS page 44

Compact Track Loader Offers Different Operation Abilities LOADERS from page 42

Both are jobsite proven as dependable, efficient machines known for exceptional maneuverability. Able to turn on a dime, skid steers and compact track loaders can operate in tight or awkward spaces where turning radius isn’t generous. Skid steers are lighter than track loaders, making them easier to transport, often with less time and cost. Building on 60 years of trusted, dependable operation, they continue to have a solid reputation in the construction world, thanks to manufacturers like John Deere that have built quality machines throughout the years. CTLs have the edge over skid steers in terms of operator comfort. Their smooth operation is a bit more forgiving than the rougher ride of a skid steer. Tracks also cause less disruption to the ground, reducing site clean-up time compared to a skid steer. Once the basics are understood, it’s time for a closer look at what separates the skid steer and the compact track loader. Most often, the decision really hinges on where the machine is going to be used. Location, Location, Location Not just true in the real estate world, loca-

tion comes into play as a deciding factor between a skid steer and compact track loader because each machine is designed to perform its best in certain conditions. Skid steers are great on harder surfaces like concrete and asphalt, especially when equipped with hard tires. While compact track loaders are able to operate on these surfaces, the harsher ground is tougher on tracks and can cause accelerated wear. Rocky conditions are also much tougher on CTLs, with the possibility of a track being damaged or cut by sharp objects. That said, skid steer operators too must take caution on this terrain to avoid puncturing tires. Conversely, compact track loaders can operate in places skid steers would struggle including uneven, muddy, sandy, and snowy terrain. Tracks navigate well on these surfaces and the added stability makes a compact track loader more productive and capable of better lifting and breakout force. While location is perhaps the most important factor in choosing a skid steer or compact track loader, it’s not the only one. Like any decision, a machine has to make sense on the bottom line, which is why cost considerations are the next area to examine in this debate.

Dollars, Cents Operating and ownership costs vary between skid steers and compact track loaders. In terms of time investment, skid steers and compact track loaders require virtually the same commitment to preventative maintenance. The only differentiating part is tires vs. tracks, and both of those should be checked on a regular basis — tire pressure on skid steers, track tension and adjustment on CTLs. A pro tip for checking track tension: resist the instinct to make them too tight. A little sag in the tracks is good, as overtightening can lead to undercarriage issues and accelerated track wear. Looking at upfront and short-term costs, the skid steer comes out as the more economical choice. The price tag of a compact track loader is higher than a comparablysized skid steer. And the biggest wear item of a CTL, the tracks, is more expensive than skid steer tires. Evaluating long-term costs, compact track loaders have a bit of an edge. Despite a common misconception, tracks last several hundred hours longer than skid steer tires, in comparable operating situations. A midquality track typically lasts three to four

times longer than conventional tires, with proper use and care. Another factor to consider is downtime cost. If clean ground conditions become sloppy, a skid steer may not be able to work. A compact track loader, however, is designed to perform in adverse ground conditions, and the day’s productivity won’t be halted due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Choosing Wisely Reviewing these three key considerations, it’s easy to see just how individualized the choice is for a skid steer or compact track loader. A company that sees the majority of time spent on asphalt or concrete surfaces is going to get results with a skid steer and pay a lower initial cost. Conversely, a contractor whose jobsite characteristics predominantly include uneven or sandy terrain, or those who do a good amount of work in rainy and snowy weather may find the track loader is worth the upfront cost and the investment will pay off in the long run. Keep in mind the basics, consider location, and check overall costs when making the decision between a skid steer or a compact track loader. 

Volvo Compact Wheel Loaders Deliver Cape Cod Cranberries Corporation in Carver, was the first to switch to Volvo compact loaders. He instantly realized how much faster he could harvest berries. For Weston, the decision to go with Volvo was based on the proven experience he had with his fleet of Volvo excavators and trucks, and trusting Rosa’s advice. Weston said, “I like the quality of the Volvos, their ease of use and the comfortable cab with heat, a/c and radio. With a travel speed of 18.5 mph, once we finish with one bog, the Volvo can be driven to the next bog rather than being trailered as with our previous machines.” Another convert is Derek Harju of Ken Harju & Sons Cranberries Inc. in Middleboro, Mass. “With the Volvo loader, the time to pick a 26-acre bog has gone from ten hours with three water reels to five hours with one machine,” he said. Harju uses a special 4-tine harrow on his loader. The Volvo loader skims across the bogs at a speed of three miles per hour versus 1.5 miles per hour with the homemade reel machines. The custom 17-ft. wide harrow takes fewer passes, resulting in less disturbance on the vines. Harju also opts for biodegradable hydraulic oil for a safer environment.

Gary Weston, owner of Weston Cranberry www.volvoce.com.  During late September through October, as the temperature begins to lower and the leaves change into brilliant New England fall colors, the culmination of a year’s work begins with the annual Cape Cod cranberry harvest. Each year, the region harvests more than 14,000 acres of the ruby red berries, known as America’s first fruit. Today’s cranberry growers are third and fourth generations to farm the bogs. For an equal number of generations, the water reel has been the chosen method to pick berries. This equipment advanced from walk-behind inventions to ride-on and motorized versions, each designed and produced by the individual farm. The reels churn the flooded bogs, gently coaxing ripe berries to the surface so they can be corralled and suctioned out of the water. This year, a crop of Volvo L20H compact wheel loaders began appearing across the bogs.

Takeuchi Redesigns Its TL8R2 Compact Track Loader

Creep mode is a standard feature on the TL8R2 models equipped with high flow auxiliary hydraulics. This feature will enable operators to precisely match the forward speed of the track loader to a particular attachment without having to constantly meter the travel lever.

Takeuchi-US’s completely redesigned TL8R2 is engineered to provide enhanced power, strength and maneuverability. The radial lift design offers a tipping load of 6,041 lbs. with an operating weight of 9,182 lbs. The TL8R2 is equipped with a 74.3 hp turbocharged engine that is EPA Final Tier IV Emission Compliant. The diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and diesel particulate filter (DPF) featured on this machine minimize emissions for clean and efficient operation. Creep mode is a standard feature on the TL8R2 models equipped with high flow auxiliary hydraulics. This feature will enable operators to precisely match the forward speed of the track loader to a particular attachment without having to constantly meter the travel lever. The creep mode function is ideal for attachments that require a consistent, repeatable travel speed, such as a cold planer and trencher. The automotive styled operators station features a 5.7-inch multi-informational color display with a rearview camera and a sealed rocker switch bank that helps improve performance and functionality by providing the operator with a wider range of operational information. Also, standard equipment on the TL8R2 are the low-effort pilot controls and proportional auxiliary switches to give the operator the precision needed to work more efficiently in a comfortable, fatigue-free environment. Additionally, a pressurized cab is an available option on the TL8R2. Optional cabs are equipped with a roll-up door, A/C, heat, defrost and front wiper, and AM/FM/Bluetooth radio providing all day comfort to the operator. “Takeuchi is excited to release the completely redesigned TL8R2” said Keith Kramlich, national product and training manager. “Takeuchi prides itself on our continuing tradition of innovation and advancing technology, and the TL8R2 is a perfect example of that. Operators will feel more strength, performance, maneuverability, versatility, and efficiency in this machine, increasing their profits.” For more information, visit www.takeuchi-us.com. 

Hitachi Announces Debut of Its ZW30 T4F Compact Loader Hitachi Construction Machinery Loaders America Inc. (HCMA) announced the debut of the ZW30 T4F compact wheel loader recently. The ZW30 features an even half cubic yard bucket, making it ideal for landscape supply operations, nurseries and other applications calling for precise measurements. However, like its larger Hitachi loader counterparts, the ZW30 handles snow and cleanup operations equally as well. The Kubota engine is powerful and reliable, according to the manufacturer, and, in conjunction with the responsive hydrostatic transmission, limited slip differentials and rear axle oscillation, this compact loader handles and travels well, no matter how tough the terrain. In addition to the smooth operation, operators will appreciate the cab environment, which includes enhanced visibility, standard air conditioning, adjustable suspension seat and an easy-read dashboard monitor panel. “I am very happy that we made the investment to have a closed cab," said Carmine Capobianco, of Big Valley Nursery. "I am sure I will appreciate it even more as winter settles in. The cab is very comfortable, yet still offers tremendous visibility." Additional standard equipment includes a

universal quick coupler, sliding windows on both doors, access on both sides of the cab with easy access steps and an automatic parking brake system. Overall, the ZW30 T4F provides a powerful and light footprint with a compact body. Durability, comfort and safety also have been engineered into this compact, designed to satisfy both experienced and inexperienced operators. Importantly, all the Hitachi compact wheel loaders are Tier 4F certified with only a DOC to control emissions. There are no complex and expensive emission DPF filters to plug, regenerate, maintain or replace. And no SCR to feed with DEF. Longer maintenance intervals with standard 500 hours engine oil changes and Hitachi’s HN oil impregnated bushings offer forgiveness if the operator missed a pin greasing service, according to the manufacturer. These Hitachi compact wheel loaders can offer as much as 10 times the tire life of skid steers and track loaders, the manufacturer said. Furthermore, these compact wheel loaders save 1/3 the fuel cost. For more information, visit www.hitachiwheelloaders.us. 

PCI Awards University of Kentucky $100,000 Grant for Concrete Program Highway Equipment Company

www.highway-equipment.com

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) The University of Kentucky has been awarded a $100,000 grant for a four-year program focused on precast concrete education by the PCI Foundation. Marty McIntyre, executive director of the Chicago-based foundation, said out of the record number of applicants this year, The College of Design’s School of Architecture, based in Lexington, passed a rigorous review process for the grant

Precast concrete, used in construction, is a building material prepared, cast and cured off-site, usually in a controlled factory environment, using reusable molds. Joe Brewer, director of technology and facilities at the University of Kentucky, called the grant “transformative” and an opportunity to help students learn how precast concrete can be used to “lessen the gap between the design and construction industries.” 

Hawkins, NDOT Form Unique Partnership on Beltway Build By Lori Lovely CEG CORRESPONDENT

Most large cities have a loop around the city center to divert traffic from the downtown area and to enhance traffic flow. Lincoln, Neb., has been dreaming of a beltway since the 1960s, but until the Build Nebraska Act was passed in 2011, designating one-quarter of 1 percent of sales tax for expansion of the expressway system, federal high priority corridors and preservation of the existing transportation system, the Nebraska Department of Transportation wasn’t able to commit the resources necessary. The Lincoln South Beltway is the largest and possibly most complex infrastructure project NDOT has launched. The project will connect U.S. Highway 77 and Nebraska Highway 2. The eastwest 11-mi., four-lane freeway is designed to reduce congestion on N-2 through Lincoln and improve safety and mobility. Bid Passage of the Transportation Innovation Act and a partnership with the city of Lincoln, Lancaster County and the U.S. Department of Transportation enabled NDOT to secure funding and prioritize the project. Additional funds were acquired in 2018 — an award of a $25 million in federal funds through a TIGER grant — which helped to significantly shorten the construction schedule and ultimately save tens of millions of dollars. With funding in place, NDOT let the project to bid in December 2019. Hawkins Construction Co. of Omaha was the only bidder and subsequently won the contract at $352,191,375, entering into a unique partnership contract with NDOT to extend payments for work completed beyond the project completion date. However, funding woes weren’t over. In 2019, Hawkins announced that, due to the instability of the market as a result of COVID-19, it was unable to finalize its financial package under the original contract that required the contractor to obtain financing to cover costs throughout the duration of construction and NDOT to make quarterly payments to them. The pan-

said. That communication included weekly utility coordination meetings with 11 different companies performing utility relocation efforts and weekly coordination meetings with the entire project team, consisting of 10 grading crews; six to seven box culvert crews; two precast pipe crews; and a full-time erosion control subcontractor. Soula said this is a “major grading project that is extremely weather-sensitive.” Ames’ plan to complete the project is to utilize onsite excavation for the embankment. She lists excavation available at 7,187,244 cu. yds., and the embankment neatline at 5,306,512 cu. yds. In total, 8 million cu. yds. of dirt — including topsoil — has to be moved.

Lincoln South Beltway crews began working on bridge pilings and the support structures that will hold up a flyway crossing over U.S. 77 that westbound drivers will use to go south toward Beatrice.

demic scared investors in the municipal bond market just as Hawkins was ready to initiate bond sales, but the market recovered quickly and bond sales succeeded in filling the financial gaps. NDOT came up with an innovative “pay-as-you-go” option that will accelerate construction, shaving four years off the project’s timeline while maintaining the original eight-year payment period laid out in the phased construction approach. Construction began in February 2020 and is anticipated to be completed in spring of 2024. Dirt on Progress Work was scheduled to begin on May 1, but Sarah Soula, external affairs manager of NDOT, said that “would have been a big challenge” to the aggressive schedule. Pre-bid, NDOT agreed to allow offline work to begin prior to that date as long as submittal requirements were met. This allowed mobilization of the project to start in February. Crews were continually added to project until they were at “full stride” on May 1, 2020, when they hit official NTP. NDOT allowed an early Notice to Proceed for work not affecting

traffic. “This was key to having a good start to the project,” Soula reported. “We were able to mobilize equipment and subcontracts, complete removals of tracts and get started on early drainage and grading items.” During the first season of the project, NDOT said that Hawkins and its team of subcontractors have moved 4 million cu. yds. of dirt, leaving about 1.2 million cu. yds.

yet to move. Ames Construction out of Burnsville, Minn., is responsible for completing the grading for the project in its entirety. In order for the project to be successful, Ames would have to move more than 4 million cu. yds. of dirt this year, Soula indicated. “To complete this took an extremely coordinated effort and project communication from numerous team members,” she

Boxes, Bridges In addition to the dirt work, crews have completed the majority of box culvert structures required along the route. Due to scheduling and phasing, 14 of the box culverts are precast, with the remaining 25 cast in place. Soula called box culvert operation “typical,” with precast boxes being set by a Cat 349 excavator or a 110-ton crawler crane. Bridge work and concrete pavement operations are only beginning to ramp up, Soula said. Crews will build 21 bridges, 18 of which will use precast girders, the remaining three featuring steel girders. To set the girders, bridge crews will use cranes ranging from 110 to 200 tons. Crews began working on bridge pilings and the support structures that will hold up a flyway crossing over U.S. 77 that westbound drivers will use to go south toward Beatrice. Before bridge building begins along the bypass linking U.S. 77 to N2, dump trucks will continue hauling dirt from the eastern edge of the project to the western edge to build up the bridge approaches, according to Curt Meuting, NDOT construction engineer overseeing the South Beltway project. Grading, Paving Crews also are preparing the dirt for concrete pours on the future see BELTWAY page 94

In 2019, a South Carolina manufacturer lifted the curtain on three new commercial class paving machines that, in terms of engineering and performance, rank among any made by much larger equipment makers. Mauldin Paving Products used a national product showcase to introduce its new, redesigned heavy paver, the 1860 model, noted for possessing more power and capacity. In addition, the maker released its new 1560 commercial paver re-engineered with an electrically heated screed as a standard feature, replacing the long-running 1550-D model.

From One Family to Another, Mauldin Brothers Now Led By Calder Brothers CALDER from page 63

Paving inevitably led to the company outgrowing its original home and moving operations across the highway to its new and expanded building. “That was one of my father’s main contributions in his advisory capacity for us,” said Cameron Calder. “He gave us a vision for moving into this facility. We were clearly out of space in the other building — this is four to five times larger than that was — so he knew that that was the right move at that time. It has allowed us to expand and to grow the business. “Oddly enough, we later found ourselves in the same situation in this facility when we again outgrew the existing office space,” he said. “We had three or four people sharing one office or one person in a very small space. Not only did we fix that by expanding our office square footage, but we also wanted to ensure that we were creating an environment that is attractive to someone in the market for a job.” Calder said the company envisioned a workspace that increases employee productivity and enhances performance, while also giving them a good feeling when they come to work each day. “That was behind the push to execute the expansion the way we did it,” he said while speaking outside on a terrace at Mauldin Paving. “This outdoor patio, for example, is not something that is required, obviously, but it allows us the opportunity on a nice day like this to work outside, make private phone calls or eat lunch. It’s designed to give employees some flexibility.” The revamped Mauldin Paving offices/factory also have allowed the company to structure its own in-house product training facility, something that it had not had before. In the past, Calder said, such instruction was given in the warehouses where tables and chairs were set up and portable heaters used. At other times, the manufacturer rented hotel conference rooms and ballrooms to train. With the updated facilities, all instruction is now done adjacent to the factory. Calder Brothers Redefine Mauldin The old Mauldin company targeted the residential and commercial market with a line of paving and compaction equipment, not too different from what

is offered today, according to Cameron Calder. On closer inspection, though, Mauldin has changed quite a bit since his family’s involvement, he said. “At that time, the compaction line was a much bigger portion of [Mauldin Brothers] company’s portfolio, accounting for about 40 percent of the annual sales,” he said. “We were finding that the changes in the compaction industry, prior to us acquiring Mauldin, had really eclipsed the products that they built, and it wasn’t our core area of focus. So, we phased out all but the smallest driveway rollers, which we continued to produce here up until this year.” Instead, Calder Brothers set on making profound product enhancements through the intervening years with its paving equipment. The line was completely revamped and expanded along the way, including adding motorgraders and asphalt distributors to its catalog. Cameron Calder said they also took that oil distributor technology and developed their own smaller liquid tank products, known as Tack Tanks. Versatile Mauldin 1860 Today, Calder Brothers considers its premier paving machine to be the model 1860, engineered to increase product performance and maintain ease-of-use for its operators. That’s also the opinion of most paving contractors — the Mauldin 1860 is the leader in its class as compared to those produced by other manufacturers. “It should be considered in the top end of the commercial class and that’s a segment that has just changed so much since we acquired this company,” Calder said. “It was a small portion of the segment then, but is the biggest slice of the pie today.” The 1860 replaces the long-running 1750-C and is powered by a Cummins 110HP Tier IV Final engine. The redesigned tractor now has a larger 9.5ton material capacity. The new lower conveyor utilizes heavy-duty greaseless heat rated bearings designed for longer life, meaning less maintenance and downtime. “If you are going to be in the commercial class, you want to be able to bump up to the mainline road segment,” he said. “So, the 1860 has the heaviest screed in its class at 4,500 pounds and extends from eight feet to 15.5 feet. What that allows a contractor to do is he can work on residential proj-

ects all the way up to road work, which is really going to cover him from start to finish. The key there is the screed that gives him the means to move back and forth between different paving projects.” The Mauldin 1860’s screed features a mat quality and density that has become the preference for many paving contractors and their clients, Calder said, because it means jobs do not have to be redone. The manufacturer offers a four-auger feed system which maintains a much more constant production rate and less work for users as they are paving the project. Competing pavers in this class only have two augers, he said. Also new for the 1860 are two, fivein. digital displays on each operator stand. They help bring the necessary gauges, auger controls, and screed heating controls to the operators’ fingertips. Improving the visibility on each one of Mauldin Paving’s models has been central to its engineering improvements. “The distributors, for instance, went through a big operator interface overhaul three years ago as we took advantage of what is available from current technologies,” he said. “We wanted to simplify the controls for quick and easy use. The system it replaced had a small display screen that was a common design among equipment at the time — a basic green screen with black letters. Today, the equipment has multi-color displays like those you see on electronic dashboards in new cars. Having those in our equipment makes it much easier for operators to, at a glance, see and understand the display.” Four Lines on Market From its upstate South Carolina factory, Mauldin currently produces different lines of mobile machines to assist contractors in completing precision paving projects. They include: • Five pavers (models 650, 760, 1360, 1560 and 1860), • Four asphalt distributors (models MT300/600, MU-600, MU-1000, and the Precision Sprayer), • The M415XT Maintainer Grader, • Compaction Rollers (models 3500, 6000 & 6000 combi). Each of these products can be purchased, rented and serviced from Mauldin Paving’s dealers in towns and see CALDER page 74

It’s Official — NPE Has Been Cancelled Pavement professionals are used to bumps in the road. Alligator cracking, longitudinal cracking, pot holes —a lot can go wrong. Over the last nine months, the entire world has felt the weight of a global pandemic, and that burden has reached organizers at the National Pavement Expo and Conference (NPE). “We are eager to return to the in-person events that we miss and need so deeply, but have come to the conclusion that it will not be possible to host the in-person 2021 NPE, which had been scheduled for Jan. 20 to 23, 2021, in Nashville, Tennessee,” said Russ Turner, associate show director, NPE. “Continued developments have made it impossible to effectively execute NPE that deliver the level of connection, discovery and value our community expects.” Ultimately, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic motivated the cancellation. Specific factors in the decision included: ongoing government restrictions on travel and large gatherings in Nashville; and various company-imposed travel restrictions on employees which affected attendees and participating companies. Organizers decided not to postpone the event, mostly due

to the timing of the paving/maintenance season, as well as to avoid any potential detraction from the next in-person event in early 2022. Instead, Turner and his team are excited to announce NPE Virtual Conference that will focus on education during the month of February 2021. While the in-person event will be sorely missed, Turner said the virtual component would allow NPE to maintain its role as an important knowledge resource. “It is our job to provide technical, management and leadership classes to this industry,” he said, “even if we can’t meet in person for 2021.” For those who want to put the next event on their calendars, the 2022 NPE is scheduled for Feb. 23 to 25, 2022, in Charlotte, N.C. “We are very optimistic about the 2022 event,” Turner said. “Now more than ever, the face-to-face interaction and networking that trade shows provide are so important. Given what has transpired with this situation, we all realize it now more than ever.” Organizers are finalizing a comprehensive list of FAQs that will be emailed out and posted on the NPE website. Any conference/expo only registrations will be refunded in full. 

National Asphalt Pavement Association Evaluates Using Plastic in Its Mixtures Plastic: It’s in the headlines, in our oceans and landfills, and now in legislation to encourage cross-industry research that explores ways to divert this massive waste stream into sustainable infrastructure. Today it’s estimated that about 19 percent of municipal solid waste in the United States is plastic alone. In October 2019, the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) and the Asphalt Institute created a joint task force to evaluate the potential of using recycled plastics in asphalt. The task force hired the National Center for Asphalt Technology to conduct a literature review, which yielded two new documents published this November. The first is a state of the knowledge, which includes summaries of plastic recycling, available research and research gaps that need to be bridged. The second presents the findings of more than 110 articles and reports that evaluate plastics in asphalt. “The challenge we are facing is that

plastic in asphalt roads sounds so simple, but in reality, it is rather complex — we have to consider worker health and safety as well as quality and performance,” said NAPA President and CEO Audrey Copeland. “NAPA has championed research problem statements that are being funded by the National Academies of Science and Engineering, more specifically the Transportation Research Board National Cooperative Highway Research Program to answer questions that are absolutely critical to understanding if plastics are viable in asphalt.” The release of these plastics documents comes on the heels of the new Save Our Seas 2.0 Act. Included in the legislation is a provision (Sec. 303, pg. 58) authorizing the National Academies of Science to conduct a study on repurposing plastic waste in infrastructure. Additionally, in early August, the House of Representatives approved and sent to the Senate the fiscal year 2021 appropriation bill for the

Departments of Transportation and Housing and Urban Development (THUD). The bill included $800,000 for research on using plastic in infrastructure. “NAPA and its members are committed to building and maintaining our country’s infrastructure with the utmost goal of recycling, sustainability and concern for our environment and resources while, at the same time, providing the travelling public with the smoothest, quietest, safest and most perpetual pavement surface available,” said NAPA Chairman James (Jay) Winford Jr., president of Prairie Contractors Inc. in Opelousas, La. NAPA also discussed plastics on its latest podcast episode of “Pave It Black” and created a shareable video to help inform political leaders, transportation officials and the general public on what the asphalt industry is doing to evaluate the potential for using plastic in asphalt.

Family Quest According to Calder, identifying and purchasing a company that the family could run together more than 25 years ago was what led to today’s hugely successful line of Mauldin products. “I think one of the things that makes it work is because of the way we grew up,” he said. “We moved around a good bit as kids and when we each turned 18 and went off to university, we were spread out and only able to see each other once or twice a year. We remained close, but not physically close, so there was just a drive and desire to own a business together.” After a period where the Calder family had no luck in finding the right business for them to buy and operate, Cameron Calder said they had to “take a pretty rash approach to” the task. He and Glen had been working for a company in Kansas City from which they both resigned to devote their energies to a full-time search for a suitable acquisition. “Our thinking was that since our family was from the eastern half of the country, we would focus on east of the Mississippi River,” he said. “We also liked the economic climate that was blossoming in the Southeast.” But the Calder family’s main criteria for an acquisition was finding a troubled company that could be re-engineered into a successful one. Mauldin Brothers Equipment fit that description perfectly. “We wanted to build a product out of a product line; we did not want to have a job shop that produced one-off machines,” Calder said. “We wanted a product line that we could be working to constantly tweak, improve and advance. But we were also looking for a business that was in some amount of distress, an ownership structure that needed an exit strategy, and one that we could afford to buy. Mauldin checked all those boxes for us.” In the latter part of the 1980s, Neil Mauldin’s company had undergone a rough period that led to the product line suffering as far as quality and support. Still, the Calder family realized that Mauldin Equipment was an established brand name, so they had to decide if they were going to fix what was wrong with the paving line and keep the brand or determine the brand was so badly

tarnished that it needed to be thrown out. “We don’t compare ourselves to HarleyDavidson, but the situation we were in was like that [in the 1970s] for the motorcycle manufacturer,” Cameron Calder said. “Harley-Davidson has always been a wellknown name, but it had a reputation for something bad. Rather than throw out the name, they fixed the problems and that’s the same strategy we took with Mauldin.” Engineered to Perfection From there, he said the family’s philosophy has been to make sure Mauldin Paving’s equipment is built the same way every time so that it remains a machine that contractors can rely on. After that, Calder Brothers could focus on bringing meaningful, best in class features to its customers. “I talked earlier about our four-auger systems, but that was not something we invented by any means; that was Neil Mauldin’s concept from the 1970s,” said Calder. “But it feeds material very well to a screed, there’s no doubt about that. What we did was look at the screed and think ‘OK, what’s available among manufacturing technologies today that is so different from when the screeds were first designed?’ We found that they were designed when the high-end manufacturing equipment was simply too expensive to build for small- and medium-sized equipment makers. So, we redesigned our screeds to take advantage of all the high-end manufacturing equipment we had invested in the company. That allowed us to manufacture a world-class screed.” Robert Calder lent his sons his wealth of engineering and business expertise, helping guide them along the path to realizing their manufacturing goals for the reimagined equipment maker. “He was an unbelievable advisor to us early on in our formation of long-range strategies and vision,” according to Cameron Calder. “One of the things he told us was to be the best manufacturer at welding together — not gluing, not bolting, not assembling — but welding incredibly complex pieces at low volume because that is a protected niche, one that would allow us to be successful. It doesn’t matter if it is in paving equipment or oil-drilling equipment.” The factory and headquarters for Mauldin Paving Products is at 450 East Warehouse Ct., Taylors, S.C.

Asphalt Producers Rank as Top Recyclers The country’s most diligent recyclers are asphalt mixture producers, who utilize more than 94 percent of old asphalt pavements in new pavement construction. Civil engineering applications account for the remaining 6 percent, which are generally still road construction and maintenance projects. According to the latest industry survey (10th annual) by the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) in partnership with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the industry reclaimed 97 million tons of RAP for future use, saving about 58.9 million cu. yds., or enough landfill space to fill up the dome of the U.S. Capitol 1,223 times. This massive reclamation effort also saved $5.3 billion in gate fees for disposal in landfills. “NAPA is proud to release the results of our annual Asphalt Pavement Industry Survey on Recycled Materials and WarmMix Asphalt Usage,” said NAPA Chairman James (Jay) Winford Jr., president of Prairie Contractors Inc. in Opelousas, La. “This survey not only quantifies our industry’s commitment to recycling but also supports our objective to remaining the most recycled material in the nation. Of the 97 million tons of RAP reclaimed, contractors reused 89.2 million tons in new asphalt pavements in 2019. This is a nearly 8.5 percent increase from the 2018 construction season and represents a nearly 59.3 percent increase from the total estimated tons of RAP used in 2009, when this annual survey was first conducted. For the first time, the survey evaluated greenhouse gas emissions, finding RAP usage saved 2.4 million metric tons of CO2e, the equivalent of removing 520,000 passenger vehicles from the road.

Additional survey results show that asphalt producers used an estimated 921,000 tons of reclaimed asphalt shingles (RAS) in asphalt mixtures in 2019. RAS usage during the 2019 construction season is estimated to have reduced the need for 184,200 tons (more than 1 million barrels) of asphalt binder and about 460,000 tons of aggregate with a total estimated value of more than $103 million. Other recycled materials commonly reported include recycled tire rubber, blast furnace slag, steel slag, cellulose fibers and fly ash. Fifty-two companies in 24 states reported nearly 1.3 million tons of these other recycled materials in the production of nearly 8.3 million tons of asphalt mixtures. Asphalt mix producers also continue to make significant use of energy-saving warm-mix asphalt (WMA) technologies. In 2019, contractors used WMA technologies for the production of 164.5 million tons of asphalt mix. A number of environmental, worker safety and construction benefits have been realized through the adoption of WMA technologies. Nearly half of the WMA production was at reduced temperatures decreasing the energy required to manufacture the mix. The most common WMA technology used is plantbased foaming, which injects a small amount of water into the asphalt binder during production. NAPA collected survey responses over the first half of 2020. The report compiles results from 212 companies with 1,101 plants in 48 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and one U.S. territory. In its online store, NAPA provides a copy of the full survey report, including a state-by-state breakdown of data. For more information, visit asphaltpavement.org/naparef. 

Judlau Makes Significant Progress PROGRESS from page 22

Lane closures provide crews with traffic-free work areas, particularly in the interchange section where the new west bridge is being constructed. Below the new span, another bridge is being constructed using a portion of the old bridge, which will see the installation of a new deck. The new bridge, still under construction and 10 ft. longer than the old one, will be 252 ft. long and have a width of 60 ft. “We are reducing the width because the DDI facilitates movement and allows for the free flow of traffic in the adjacent areas,” stated IDOT, which pointed out that the demolition went smoothly and that a similar process will be repeated for the westbound bridge. “Judlau did it in stages, and every precaution was taken to ensure that debris did not fall below. For the overhang portion, this was done at night with lance closures.” False decking has been set up to separate the two bridges. For the main (upper) bridge, work is ongoing to build the substructure. “All work is following the progress schedule,” stated IDOT. “Work on the

superstructure continues with portions of the new deck to be poured in fall 2021.” The construction of the new roads and ramps for Stages 1 and 2 will be done in phases, along with traffic shifts. Crews have demolished eastbound interchange bridge and are working on new substructure. “Aggregate base for the new road was placed from the north end of the project down to the interchange,” stated IDOT construction officials. “The retaining wall at the southwest corner of 119th and Weber Road is complete. Storm sewer work within the interchange is on-going. Earthwork in all four infields is on-going. The working platform for the ground columns was installed along with the Stage 1 ground columns. Stage 1 storm sewer work on Normantown Road is complete. All work in the center median of I-55 was complete and traffic shifted four feet left into the Stage 1A configuration. Construction of the abutments are complete, [as well as] drilled shafts and steel piles for the retaining wall in front of Speedway, south of the interchange. “Earthwork and storm sewer will

continue at the interchange. South of the interchange, concrete facing for the retaining wall in front of Speedway will be formed and poured, and embankment placed behind the wall and grading for the new roadbed will be done. Embankment and storm sewer will be placed in the slough area. Normantown Road will be graded for the new roadbed.” Peak days thus far have seen more than 40 Judlau and subcontractor employees on-site. Local and regional subcontractors have been hired. The amounts of new materials to be removed via the demolition of the existing interchange and roads and new materials to be brought in, such as concrete and steel, are still being tabulated. Judlau expects to re-use suitable earth that has been excavated, as well as HMA and crushed concrete from various items that have been removed. Prairie Material is providing some of the concrete being poured for the project. Equipment-wise, Judlau is using: cranes excavators, dozers — including Komatsu models, loaders, motor graders, rollers, pavers, telehandlers, pile driving equipment and other standard construction vehicles.  CEG

Polygon Composite Bushings Simplify Maintenance in K-Tec Earthmovers Polygon Company, a producer of composite tubing, bearings, and pneumatic cylinders, has designed custom composite bushings for K-Tec Earthmovers for use in hydraulic cylinders and other pivot points on their heavy-duty scrapers and levelers. Used in extremely demanding mining and construction applications, the levelers and scrapers require bushings that can withstand vibration, strain, wear and significant contamination without requiring frequent maintenance. K-Tec Earthmovers was founded to perform well in heavy-duty earthmoving applications and landscapes. The company’s levelers and scrapers undergo extremely harsh conditions, including heavy loads, ingress of water, dirt, clay, mud and more. One significant component of leveling and scraping equipment is the hydraulic actuation system that sets the depth for each digging or scraping job. These hydraulic systems undergo significant strain and stress and must remain functional throughout the equipment’s lifetime. With collaboration between engineering teams, Polygon was able to deliver a custom composite bushing to K-Tec that performs well even under the extreme stress faced by earthmoving equipment, according to the company. The strong composite material can withstand the strain, variable speeds and vibration that the bearings undergo, while Polygon’s proprietary bushing liners have eliminated

the need for greasing or other regular maintenance. The bushings remain functional even when exposed to the harsh environmental conditions of earthmoving applications, Polygon said. Polygon’s custom bushings slow the wear process in this critical wear point, lengthening mean time between repairs and overall service life of the K-Tec equipment. K-Tec and Polygon have a longstanding partnership and multiple successful projects have been completed across several generations of K-Tec equipment using Polygon’s composite bushings. “Given our heavy-duty applications, we knew from the start that we wanted greaseless bushings on our earthmoving equipment to reduce the need for daily greasing, so we reached out to Polygon,” said Rick Ragbir, purchaser at K-Tec. “Reducing daily maintenance by eliminating the need to grease daily is a huge selling point for our scrapers, and a major benefit for end users,” Ragbir added. “Working with Polygon’s design team to get what we needed was extremely easy; the design experts we worked with could answer all of our questions, and when challenges about sizing arose, we were able to work together closely to solve those challenges effectively.” For more information visit www.polygoncomposites.com. 

FTAAllocates $544M for Seven Transit Infrastructure Projects The Trump Administration announced Dec. 17 a total of $544.3 million in federal funding will be allocated by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to seven transit infrastructure projects in Arizona, California, Indiana, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina and Utah. Funding is provided through FTA’s Capital Investment Grants (CIG) Program. “This $544.3 million federal investment will help ensure that critical improvements can be made to our country’s public transportation systems,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao. With this announcement, FTA has advanced funding for 41 new CIG projects throughout the nation under this Administration, totaling approximately $10.7 billion in funding commitments. “These transit infrastructure investments will help communities improve access and mobility to transit service as they address the impacts of the COVID-19 public health emergency and continue their economic recovery,” said FTA Deputy Administrator K. Jane Williams. Two of the projects receiving an allocation have an existing Full Funding Grant Agreement (FFGA), and five projects are advancing towards readiness to receive a construction grant agreement under the CIG Program. The projects must meet additional requirements in law before a grant can be awarded. The CIG Program provides funding for major transit infrastructure capital investments nationwide. Projects accepted into the program must go through a multi-year, multi-step process according to requirements in law to be eli-

gible for consideration to receive program funds. CIG Projects Receiving Allocations Phoenix, Az.: Northwest Extension Phase II Project The Phoenix Northwest Extension Phase II Project is a New Starts project in the engineering phase of the CIG program. The project is a 1.5-mi. extension of the Valley Metro light rail system from the existing end-of-line station in northwest Phoenix to the Metrocenter Mall. FTA is allocating $49.4 million in CIG funds to the project. San Francisco, Calif.: Transbay Corridor Core Capacity Project The Transbay Corridor Core Capacity Project received an FFGA in September 2020. The project will improve capacity on the existing Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) heavy rail system. FTA is allocating $250.7 million in CIG funds to the project. Gary, Ind.: Double Track Northwest Indiana Project The Gary Double Track Northwest Indiana Project is a New Starts project in the engineering phase of the CIG program. The project includes construction of 26.6 mi. of new second track on the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District (NICTD) South Shore commuter rail line in northern Indiana between Gary and Michigan City, including 2 mi. of new right-of-way. FTA is allocating $49.4 million in CIG funds to the project.

Mecalac Speed Control System Optimizes Speed Control Mecalac, a global designer, manufacturer and distributor of compact construction equipment for urban environments, offers its speed control travel speed management system standard on all MCR crawler skid excavator models. The new system allows operators to set a maximum travel speed from 20 available speed options. The system acts as a limiter, maintaining the desired speed so operators can focus on the task at hand for increased safety and productivity. Speed control increases versatility for the 6MCR, 8MCR and 10MCR machines, making it easy to move across the job site at speeds up to 6.2 mph (10 kmh) or maintain very low speeds for applications such as mowing or snow removal. “Mecalac products are designed to simplify the lives of our users without compromising on performance,” said Peter Bigwood, general manager of Mecalac North America. “Our MCR series provides the quickness of a skid steer with the 360-degree rotation of an excavator for versatility and travel speeds two times faster than any compact excavator. But sometimes speed isn’t everything. Speed control allows operators to easily match their speed to the task.” With the turn of a dial, operators can eas-

ily select their desired speed. When combined with the flexibility from a range of attachments — including mowers, mulchers, sweepers, snow blowers and many more — the speed control system maximizes versatility for all MCR series

units, increasing productivity and jobsite efficiency. Mecalac’s quick coupler, CONNECT, another advanced feature standard on the MCR series further increase speed and ease of use by allowing operator to switch

between attachments without leaving the cab for greater efficiency in a variety of tasks, according to the manufacturer. “The MCR series is like a high-tech multi tool; you really can do it all with a single machine,” Bigwood said. “They don’t need a mower and a skid steer and an excavator. There’s an attachment for every task, and now a speed setting that matches. With speed control, operators don’t need to worry about trying to maintain a certain speed; they can just focus on the task at hand.” MCR units also feature Mecalac’s threepart arm and a 360-degree rotating ability for an extended range of movement and gamechanging compactness. Operators can do more from a single position or within confined spaces with increased flexibility and reach while minimizing unnecessary movement. The three-part arm can also be tucked in, allowing for extra compactness and mobility without overbalancing the unit in the front — resulting in a true zero-turn radius. In addition, the boom system gives the MCR enhanced lifting capacities, according to the manufacturer. For more information, visit www.mecalac.com. 

Winter Improves Razor XL Carbide Cutting Edge Wear Bar Winter Equipment has improved the wear bar on its Razor XL carbide snowplow cutting edge system due to positive customer feedback from the recent improvement to its Patriot cutting edge system. Rated for department of transportation systems, the Razor XL system includes three interlocking cutting edges that have prewelded wear bars and abrasion-resistant covers. The new wear bars are one-piece, high-quality cast design that are 2 in. longer than the previous wear bar and filled with Winter carbide matrix for increased blade life and cutting power. The blade’s larger footprint decreases pounds per square inch, which increases overall blade life as well as decreasing salt usage and chemical treatment, according to the manufacturer. The Razor XL system features a HammerHead carbide radius tip that offers 30 percent more carbide and allows for premium performance on multiple attack angles. An integrated, heat-treated, steel cover protects from impact and is welded on for easy installation.

The Razor XL system features a HammerHead carbide radius tip that offers 30 percent more carbide and allows for premium performance on multiple attack angles. An integrated, heat-treated, steel cover protects from impact and is welded on for easy installation. On both sides of the cutting edge, the system includes a

heavy-duty steel adaptor plate and two Winter PlowGuard MAXX guards manufactured from high-quality material and reinforced with proprietary carbide matrix to defend against uneven and premature wear, according to the manufacturer. “The new wear bar on our Razor XL system can provide up to three times the wear life com-

pared to standard carbide and cover systems,” said Kent Winter, founder and CEO of Winter Equipment. “Longer blade life means users experience less downtime changing out blades and more time plowing to keep streets and parking lots safe.” Longer blade life means reduced blade changes, reduced material costs, reduced labor costs and reduced workman comp claims from the hazards of heavy, one-piece blades. The system also comes with a satisfaction guarantee, ensuring that if the product’s wear system does not perform or last as long as promised, the company will work with its customers until they are satisfied. Designed to clear packed snow and ice to reveal a safe road surface with minimal salt and chemical treatment, Winter Equipment’s Razor XL cutting edges can be used in highway, city street and rural road applications. Shipped free, the system comes ready to mount, with all parts, hardware and installation directions in a single box. The system can be ordered through Winter’s distributor system.

New Attachment Offers More Comfort While Clearing Snow Bobcat Company is expanding its compact tractor attachment offering with the new front-mount snowblower. The front-mount snowblower is positioned in front of the machine, rather than behind on a 3-point hitch. The front-mounted attachment provides customers a more comfortable way to clear snow around acreages or barns as they do not need to turn around in their seat to monitor the performance of the attachment, according to Bobcat.

The new snowblower attachment is available in two models — 49- and 62in. The 49-in. model is compatible with the CT1021 and CT1025 models. The 62-in. is compatible with the CT2025, CT2035, and CT2535 models.

The front-mount snowblower is positioned in front of the machine, rather than behind on a 3-point hitch.

Features include a two-stage blower design and hydraulic rotating chute to direct snow wherever operators want it. Adjustable skid shoes help scrape the pavements clean or can be set higher to remove snow from gravel lots or driveways. A bolt-on reversible cutting edge is included for added durability. How It Works The front-mounted snowblower is driven from the mid-power-take-off (PTO) — which transfers the power from the compact tractor engine to the snowblower — and connected via a lift kit. Operators can hydraulically raise and lower the snowblower and redirect the discharge chute using the joystick. Available Models The new snowblower attachment is available in two models — 49- and 62-in. The 49-in. model is compatible with the CT1021 and CT1025 models.

Volvo Group Launches New Green Finance Framework

The Easy Way To Advertise Your Equipment Run In Two Consecutive Issues – Black & White $135 • Color $195

Volvo Group launched a Green Finance Framework for the financing of investments and projects in the area of clean transportation. The framework is classified as Dark Green by the Center for International Climate and Environmental Research (CICERO Shades of Green). “Sustainability is a part of our DNA, ranging from safety, operations, purchasing, durability and quality in our products to constant fuel-efficiency improvements in our vehicles and machines. We take a holistic view on sustainability and are very pleased to show that we are supporting this transition with every part of our organization,” said Martin Lundstedt, president and CEO of the Volvo Group. The framework enables the Volvo Group to issue green bonds and other green financial instruments and allows the company to identify, select, manage and report on eligible projects and assets in line with International Capital Market Association Green Bond Principles. The Green Finance Framework has been

subject to an independent external assessment by CICERO Shades of Green, which has classified the green financing framework as Dark Green – its highest level. The framework will be used for funding through e.g. green bonds, green commercial papers and green loans. The funds will be earmarked to projects in areas such as research and development and manufacturing of electric vehicles, machines and engines with zero tailpipe emissions. Funds also will be used by Volvo Financial Services to offer green loans to customers who buy the group’s electric products. “Launching the green financing framework is a way of acknowledging that the debt market will play an important role in achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement by channeling funds towards projects that will have profound impact on reducing CO2 emissions,” said Jan Ytterberg, Volvo Group CFO.

Flint, Mich., Makes Progress Toward Ending Water Crisis By John Flesher ASSOCIATED PRESS

Flint has taken important steps toward resolving the lead contamination crisis that made the impoverished Michigan city a symbol of the drinking water problems that plague many United States’ communities, officials said Dec. 7. A total of $120 million in federal and state funding has helped Flint replace more than 9,700 lead service lines, which carry water from main pipes into homes, said Kurt Thiede, administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Region 5, which includes Michigan. Fewer than 500 service lines remain to be checked as of early December. The searchand-replace operation, involving more than 26,000 digs, was required under a 2017 settlement of a lawsuit filed by Flint residents and nonprofit groups against the city and state. Flint also has finished most actions required under an emergency order the EPA issued in 2016, including the completion of a study on proper treatments to prevent water pipe corrosion and the regular sampling of water from homes that still have lead service lines, Thiede said.

“The drinking water system in Flint, I think it can be said, is in better shape now than it’s ever been.” Sheldon Neeley Mayor of Flint

The remaining steps should be completed soon, “marking the end of what has been a rather dark and challenging time,” he said during an online news conference. “The drinking water system in Flint, I think it can be said, is in better shape now than it’s ever been,” he said. Mayor Sheldon Neeley pointed to other progress, including work on a new building for chemical treatment systems and a backup water source pipeline, which are scheduled for completion in 2021. But he acknowledged that many Flint residents remain skeptical that their water is safe.

“Though the technology is saying we’re better, the psychological impact of having poor water quality for a long period of time still exists, so there is still a crisis in confidence and that’s not going to be resolved overnight,” Neeley said. Flint switched its drinking water source in 2014 from Detroit’s system to the Flint River in a money-saving move while under supervision of a state financial manager. City workers followed state environmental officials’ advice not to use anti-corrosive additives. Without those treatments, water from the river scraped lead from aging pipes

and fixtures, contaminating tap water. Residents of the city of nearly 100,000 lined up for bottled water and parents feared their children had suffered permanent harm. A criminal investigation that has resulted only in misdemeanor no-contest pleas thus far was resumed last year. A federal court is considering a proposed $641 million settlement of lawsuits filed by Flint residents against the state, the city, a local medical center and an engineering and environmental services firm. Thiede declined to comment on pending suits against the EPA over Region 5′s response to the lead contamination. Flint has not exceeded the federal action threshold for lead of 15 parts per billion in the last four years, the EPA said in a statement. But it recommended that residents continue using certified drinking water filters because construction work across the city could temporarily elevate lead levels. Among other changes, they will require testing at all schools and day care facilities, as well as publicly accessible lead service line inventories for all water systems. Officials also announced a program to train Flint high school students at nearby Delta College for careers in water treatment systems. 

eastbound lanes by dumping lime. Trucks will be loaded by Cat 349 size hoes, Soula said. “The grading operation requires significant equipment,” Soula said. “On average, they have 70 pieces of equipment.” Rental side dumps will be used on what she dubbed a “typical placing operation” with more than 90 trucks onsite at peak. The project also will use two dedicated batch plants to produce more than 300,000 cu. yds. of concrete – 260,000 cu. yds. for paving and 50,000 cu. yds. for structures. Constructors Inc., of Lincoln, Neb., will complete half of the concrete paving, half of the precast pipe and all of the asphalt paving. “The grading operation required significant equipment to complete,” Soula said. “On average, they had 70 pieces of equipment” onsite to complete 63 miles of roadway pavement. Paving operations will use standard equipment, For local cut to fills, crews will use

tractor and pan fleets as well as scraper fleets.” Road Closed Project officials closed the existing Saltillo Road that intersects U.S. 77, shifting traffic south to a temporary intersection in order to allow work to begin on a new Saltillo Road interchange. It’s a task Soula said required “significant coordination.” She credited a

“highly-effective partnership approach” embraced by NDOT, the engineers, GC Hawkins and the subs. Crews are digging down at the point where the freeway will pass under a bridge to be built for Saltillo Road traffic to cross. Excavators on the banks fill semis that traverse one-way paths down the slope built explicitly for moving dirt.

The area for the freeway extending past 98th Street has been cleared to be ready for paving to start mid-2021. The West Interchange at Highway 77 and N-2 is the critical path of the project, Soula indicated. “NDOT has detailed Phasing Plans to follow to allow Highway 77 to remain open over the course of construction,” she said. “For the project to be successful, we had to get through numerous phase/traffic changes this year.” Scheduling After waiting decades to begin, the Lincoln Beltway project has an aggressively expedited schedule, anticipating substantial completion May 1, 2023 — three years after Notice to Proceed — and final completion April 30, 2024 — four years after NTP. Despite that fast-paced schedule, crews have not needed to work nights, according to Meuting, although they are working six days a week and the occasional Sunday.

The only schedule interruptions to date have been weather-related, when rain prohibited recycling dirt removed from one section of the project for use elsewhere onsite. Even the novel coronavirus hasn’t slowed work. Joining Hawkins, Ames and Constructors Inc. are ME Collins of Wahoo, Neb., and Van Kirk of Sutton, Neb. Chris Hawkins, COO of the company that bears his name, told the press that he expects more subs “to join the approximately 200 professionals, 100-plus trucks and 100-plus pieces of other major equipment onsite” as work progresses. Meuting believes that effective communication and coordination have enabled the team to manage such a massive project and kept work on target to meet the threeyear deadline. Overall, Hawkins told the press, “We are very pleased with the progress, which is on schedule.”  CEG

Broker Advises to Act Swiftly On Requests, Quotations INSURANCE from page 32

noted Koster. He suggests starting the renewal process as early as is practical. He reminds contractors that despite the pandemic, temporary extensions are rare and only done on a case-by-case basis. Your risk management advisor may require more information for a renewal and quotations could contain more subjectivities. “Markets will experience more difficulties in respect of coverage,” said Koster. “Insurers might be more critical and provide less capacity at higher premiums for certain type of covers.” He suggested contractors act swiftly on received requests and quotations. Bind coverage while it is valid in order to secure capacity, avoiding subjectivities, lack of capacity or increase of premiums. If a temporary construction project suspension is considered, maintain security on the job site. On its website, the AGC has posted an extensive resource list for coronavirus-related issues in the area of insurance coverage. One area of particular interest to contractors is a policyholders’ checklist developed by Richard Brown of SDV Law, which specializes in insurance coverage. Brown, a partner with the Trumbull, Conn.-based firm, writes policyholders should communicate with everyone along the risk management pipeline.

Contractors are carefully watching trends in risk coverage during the pandemic. Top of mind are COVID-19 privacy and liability employment issues, how to present as a best-in-class risk to underwriters, worker’s compensation eligibility, claims and coverage.

During these unprecedented times, communication is key “… even if it is not certain whether they will need to file insurance claims,” he said. Specific policy terms, and the way losses are documented and presented to insurance carriers, is pivotal in securing coverage for coronavirus-related exposures. A careful review of the policyholder’s insurance program may show coverage for the coronavirus outbreak, said Brown. “Now is the time to assess, with the guidance of your brokers and insurance coverage counsel, the specific coverages in place.” Review the terms and conditions of your Property, General Liability, Pollution, Directors & Officers, Professional Liability, Fiduciary Liability, as well as Event Cancelation Insurance coverages. “For instance, policyholders would want to assess, ahead of time, whether there are bacterial/virus/communicable diseases/pandemics exclusions in their policies,” he said. “It is also relevant to review, with a keen eye, the insuring agreements and pose hypotheticals to stress test them and see how far coverage would go with respect to a coronavirus exposure.” Risk managers and/or insurance personnel need to intimately understand the various ways COVID-19 will impact their particular business. Detailed conversations with department heads and chief executives will help to understand exposure, focus resources and prepare a game plan in the insurance and risk management fronts. “Communication should be daily to refine the understanding as the exposure continues to develop,” said Brown. “Marrying that knowledge with available insurance coverage will prove fruitful if the risk materializes.” Keep in mind, brokers have firsthand information of the

impact of COVID-19 on the insurance marketplace. They know your business and your insurance program and can keep you advised of potential gaps in coverage as the exposure evolves. Constant and open communication with brokers will make the process of giving notice, and lodging an insurance claim, smoother, said Brown. It will “potentially avoid miscommunication issues that can impact the narrative presented to carriers for coverage,” he added. Generally, late notice of an insurance claim does not invalidate an insured’s rights to coverage unless the insurer proves actual prejudice due to late notice in certain states. But Brown said it is best practices to give prompt notice of any claim, and particularly give notice of any circumstance that may give rise to a claim, to the insurance carriers. “This will engage the carrier early on as the loss progresses and avoids unnecessary disputes later over issues like late notice, voluntary payments or assumption of liability. It’s also a key aspect if the policy is soon to expire or if it is a claims-made basis policy like is often the case in pollution policies, he added. Once prompt notice is given to the carriers, policyholders should carefully document facts involving any potential or actual losses as well as costs and losses incurred. This is key in all coverages but particularly in property and business interruption coverages. Brown noted that employer’s liability coverage could be also impacted by the coronavirus threat. “As such, policyholders of all trades should be mindful of their general duty to provide a workplace free from recognized hazards causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm.”  CEG
