By Giles LambertsonCEG CORRESPONDENT

The blowout of the Deepwater Horizonoil well in April has been a slow-motion dis-aster for Gulf states, with the agony meas-ured in economic uncertainty as well as inreal-and-present environmental injury.

Construction contractors are among theresidents of states bordering the Gulf ofMexico who are still assimilating what it allmeans. There is not yet general agreementwhether the spill will end up hurting theindustry a little, a lot, or not at all.

In truth, the immediate impact onbuilders is mostly positive. That’s becausemanmade and natural disasters always spurclean-up activity, which nearly alwaysmeans building industry job creation in theshort term. After Hurricane Katrinasmashed Louisiana and Mississippi in 2005,debris removal and then reconstruction ofvast stretches of those states were a tremen-dous boon to contractors.

The highway investments in thestimulus law have been a brightspot for a transportation construc-tion industry hard hit by recession-induced cutbacks in state programsand decline in private sector work.But continued uncertainty aboutpassage of a multi-year surfacetransportation reauthorization billis hindering chances for a sustained

economic recovery. That was the thrust of the mes-

sage delivered by Kevin Gannon,vice president of Appleton, Wis.-based Northeast Asphalt Inc., at aJuly 27 House Transportation &Infrastructure Committee hearingon implementation of theAmerican Recovery &Reinvestment Act (ARRA).

Gannon, a director on theAmerican Road & TransportationBuilders Association (ARTBA)board, told the committee thatrecovery act-funded projects hiscompany is working on have notwholly offset the 50 percent drop inprivate sector work in recent years.He said, however, that ARRA proj-ects have allowed them to hang on

to the firm’s existing workforce.Gannon noted that as of July 16,

more than 11,000 highway andbridge projects under the recoveryact had moved to the constructionstage and more than 3,000 werenow finished, worth a total of $23billion.

“This is $23 billion that is gener-

R.G. Smith Equipment Company held a Bagela asphaltrecycler demonstration July 21 at its facility on 622East Northwest Highway in Des Plaines, Ill.

Recently, Bagela USAnamed R.G. Smith a dealer and thetwo companies teamed up to showcase the Bagela asphaltrecycler to customers from across Illinois.

Bagela USA offers three different size models of portableasphalt recyclers. These easily transportable units allow con-tractors or municipalities to reheat excavated asphalt andplace it back down as a permanent hot patch upon the com-pletion of necessary repair work to asphalt surfaces.

These machines are ideally suited for contractors ormunicipalities involved in utility cuts, pothole repair, parkinglot repair, catch basin installation, plumbing cuts, airportmaintenance and all winter patch work (when it would bedesirable to make a permanent hot asphalt patch repair ver-sus temporary and expensive cold patches).

see DEMO page 50

Jason Crose (L), city of Naperville, Ill., asks AlanThompson, technical director of Bagela USA, somequestions about the Bagela asphalt recycler.

Recycled hot asphalt is churned out of the Bagelaasphalt recycler.

A Bobcat skid steer loads the Bagela asphalt recyclerwith pre-used asphalt to make a fresh new asphaltmix.

(L-R): Greg Harla, sales and marketing director, BagelUSA, describes the features of the Bagela asphalt recy-cler to Mike Stamper and Tom Buttner, both of the cityof Des Plaines, while Ernie Szabo, general manager ofR.G. Smith, looks on.

(L-R): John Kenna of R.G. Smith Equipment answersquestions from Adam Boeche, city of Des Plaines, andVince Laoang, city of Wheaton, while Ernie Szabo, gen-eral manager of R.G. Smith Equipment stands ready toassist.

Bagela asphalt recyclers are ideally suited for con-tractors or municipalities involved in utility cuts, pot-hole repair, parking lot repair and more.

The father and son team of Ray and Kevin Orstrom ofThe Patching People were excited to see the Bagelaasphalt recycler in action.

Timing is crucial in any successful busi-ness.

Spectro Alloys Corp., a low-cost andhigh-volume produced of aluminum, basedin Rosemont, Minn., is no exception. Whena breakdown occurs, a quick fix becomesvital.

Such was the case when one of the firm’sfurnaces used to melt scrap became badlydamaged. O’Reilly Fabrication and WeldingService was quickly tapped to clear the dam-aged furnace. Then timing became criticalfor the Goodhue, Minn.,-based contractor.

“Because of the loss of aluminum pro-duction,” said O’Reilly Fabrication andWelding Services CEO Jake O’Reilly, “wewere required to get this done in the fastesttime possible.”

That isn’t unusual for your average proj-ect, but the situation O’Reilly was facingwas a little different.

The refractory lining of the furnace usedto melt aluminum in the recycling processhad failed, creating a molten mass that hadsolidified and needed to be removed beforea new furnace could be built.

And that’s where things got tricky.According to O’Reilly, during the recy-

cling process a pump keeps liquid aluminummoving through the furnace and a hole in thefurnace’s side allows the molten metal to

flow into a mold. When the refractory insidethe furnace failed, the aluminum got in con-tact with the steel plate on the floor.

“It ended up burning a hole through thefloor, and all that aluminum leaked out,”O’Reilly said.

According to O’Reilly, a cavity under-neath the floor, designed to provide coolingair to the area, then filled with the meltedaluminum. The heat also melted the I-beamsacross the floor. Once it cooled, the alu-minum was a solid mass.

Thrice Not NiceIn taking on the project, O’Reilly was

faced with a triple challenge —removing thefurnace, removing the hardened aluminumbetween the floor beams and removing thehardened aluminum in the air cavity.

“The only way to get that aluminum outwas to rip the whole furnace out,” he said.

Again, something easier said than done.Trying to accomplish the task a traditionalway with torches and manpower would useup costly time.

O’Reilly knew he needed a shear strongenough to cut through the furnace metal butsmall enough to fit into the tight workspaceinside the furnace building.

With those conditions in mind, O’Reillyapproached Brian Durfee, sales manager of

Road Machinery and Supplies Co. (RMS), aSavage, Minn., company that rents and sellsconstruction equipment, and asked how hemight handle the situation.

“He came to me looking for ways wemight have to help him get it [the furnaceand the aluminum] cut and out of the build-ing,” Durfee said. “He wasn’t sure how hewas going to get it out.”

Durfee realized from the beginning thatO’Reilly needed a special piece of equip-ment that could cut thick steel as well asrotate to get into tight corners.

He immediately thought of the newGenesis GXP440R shear, already dubbedthe “440.” The shear, which has the cuttingabilities usually found on a much largermachine, was introduced earlier this year,not long before O’Reilly took on the Spectroproject.

The 440 was attached to a KomatsuPC300LC-08 excavator that provided thepower and hydraulics for the Genesis towork.

“We represent both Komatsu and Genesisscrap and shearing equipment,” said Durfee.“We married the 300 with the Genesis tocome up with the perfect tool for that partic-ular application. Otherwise, it was just goingto be with men and torches.”

The Genesis turned out to be an ideal

piece of equipment for the job.“O’Reilly told me, ‘This thing is a

beast!’” Durfee said. “He said it just grabbedeverything he touched and cut it or pulled itapart. He was very impressed.”

“We just went in with that shear and start-ed chopping,” said O’Reilly, who has 16employees working on the project. “Thatshear was amazing. It would take you a dayto cut that with a torch and you would havehad spatters and sparks blowing back in yourface.

“With that shear we went in and actuallypeeled the (furnace) steel off the aluminum,sheared that up and then we could shear thealuminum bars up. It has a very, very strongcutting ability for its size. Usually you needto have a machine almost double the size toget a shear that will generate the force thatthe 440 will.”

Using the shear, O’Reilly was able toremove the melted aluminum in between thebeams in about three days.

“Without it, it would have taken an extrathree to four weeks for sure,” said O’Reilly.

The Genesis shear O’Reilly used was thefirst dealer model “put into action” beyonddemonstrations. On top of its power, size andmaneuverability, the Genesis shear is a user-friendly piece of equipment, Durfee said.

Komatsu America Corp.’sWA250PZ-6 tool carrier hasimproved visibility and increasedloading power and performancefor the construction, utility, gov-ernment, sewer, waste and agricul-tural markets. This machineincludes technological enhance-ments for greater performance,operator comfort and efficiency,according to the manufacturer.

The WA250PZ-6, with an oper-ating weight of 26,808 to 27,778lbs. (12,160 to 12,600 kg) and aheaped bucket capacity of 2.5 to3.0 cu. yd. (1.9 to 2.3 cu m), gets itspower and productivity from aKomatsu SAA6D107E-1 engine.This engine has a net power of 138hp (103 kW), is EPA Tier III emis-sions certified and provides highproductivity with low fuel con-sumption and low noise.

The WA250-6 is equipped withKOMTRAX technology, whichsends machine operating informa-tion to a secure Web site utilizingwireless technology. Data such asoperating hours, location andmaintenance alerts are relayed tothe web application for analysis.The KOMTRAX fleet monitoringsystem increases machine avail-ability, reduces the risk of machinetheft, allows for remote diagnosisby the distributor and providesother information to drive businessefficiency and productivity,according to the manufacturer.

Parallel Z-Bar Linkage Design

The WA250PZ-6 offers a paral-lel z-bar linkage design, whichimproves visibility for operationssuch as loading pallets and othermaterials onto forks. TheWA250PZ-6 also provides parallelmovement with large tilt force forboth bucket and fork applications.

Increased Power and Performance With

Hydrostatic TransmissionSystem

The WA250PZ-6 incorporatesKomatsu’s hydrostatic transmis-sion system (HST) that allocatesonly as much power as is neededfor a given application. The enginepower is transmitted hydraulicallyto a transfer case, then mechanical-ly out to the differentials and to thefour driving wheels, making the

WA250PZ-6 a very powerful yetefficient machine that respondsquickly and smoothly to varyingjob conditions.

By adjusting automatically tothe tractive effort demands of thework at hand, Komatsu’s HST pro-vides for quick travel response andaggressive drive into the pile. Thefull auto-shifting feature eliminatesgear shifting and the kick-downswitch gives the operator the abili-ty to concentrate on digging andloading operations for faster cycletimes and increased productivity.

Variable Traction Control With ‘S-mode’ The tractive effort of the

machine, when traveling at lowspeeds, can be reduced by usingthe traction control switch to con-trol tire slippage. This is especiallybeneficial for surfaces such as wetconcrete or soft ground where tiresare more likely to slip. The tractioncontrol system eliminates exces-sive bucket penetration and tireslippage during operations such asstockpile loading, extending thelife-cycle of tires and improvingwork efficiency. A new “S-mode”control provides optimum drivingforce for operations on slipperyroad surfaces, including snowremoval or working on snow-cov-ered surfaces, by controlling theengine speed and HST motor whentraveling at a low speed.

Maximum BreakoutForce, Dumping Clearance

and Reach The WA250PZ-6 also has an

increased breakout force of 26,490lbs. (12,015 kg) and high static tip-ping loads (20,767 lbs. [9,420 kg]straight and 18,067 lbs. [8,195 kg]at a 40 degree full turn) to providepower and stability during thetoughest operations. The long liftarms provide high dumping clear-ances and maximum dumpingreach so the operator can “level” or“even” loads on the body of adump truck.

Improved Operator Comfort

Komatsu designed an operator-friendly cab with increased back-wards seat slide adjustment andmore interior room. The pressur-ized cab reduces noise levels to alow 70 d[B]A and keeps dust andother particles from the cab’s inte-rior. The rear-hinged cab doors andsloped staircase type steps withlarge diameter handrails allow foreasy entrance and exit and a widepillar-less glass windshield pro-vides for increased visibility. Theviscous damping mount systemhelps to minimize noise, shock andvibration in rough working condi-tions.

For optimum comfort, theWA250PZ-6 features a low effort,multi-function mono lever pres-

sure proportional control (PPC)hydraulic system with a forward,neutral and reverse control switchfor smooth and easy directionalchanges. There also is a max trac-tion switch on the mono lever tocut traction control on and off eas-ily with the push of a button.

Easy Maintenance and Serviceability

The WA250PZ-6 allows foreasy maintenance in order toreduce costly downtime. The largegull-wing type doors open widelyand easily (with the assistance of agas spring) allowing the operatoror technician to perform daily serv-ice checks from the ground. Theengine fan is hydraulically drivenand if the machine is operating inadverse conditions the operator canreverse the hydraulic cooling fan(to blow out debris) from inside thecab by simply pressing a button onthe control panel, or the fan can bepreset to automatically activate atgiven intervals.

The tool carrier is equipped withthe Komatsu equipment manage-ment monitoring system (EMMS),which monitors all critical systemsand alerting and guiding the opera-tor should an abnormality occur.Komatsu’s EMMS often preventsa small problem from becoming amajor service issue contributing toa reduced cost of operation. Thecontroller monitors key engine fea-tures such as oil pressure, coolant

temperature air cleaner clogging,etc. If the controller finds abnor-malities the error is displayed onthe LCD. The EMMS also storesabnormalities and error codes fortroubleshooting assistance tomechanics which minimizes diag-nosis and repair time.

Increased Durability and Reliability

The wet multi-disc brakes andfully hydraulic braking system,combined with dynamic braking,mean lower maintenance costs andhigher reliability. The dynamicbraking function means using thewet disc brakes less often, increas-ing overall brake disc life. The wetdisc brakes are fully sealed keep-ing contaminants out and reducingwear and subsequent maintenance.This also means no air system tobleed and no condensation ofwater that can lead to corrosionand freezing.

Controllers, connectors, sensorsand wiring have undergone exten-sive testing to ensure reliability inthe harshest of conditions. Theelectronic connectors are DT-typeand seal against dirt and moisture.Flat face-to-face O-ring seals areused to securely seal hydraulichose connections and all hydrauliccylinders are protected by metalguard rings for additional reliabili-ty.

Komatsu WA250PZ-6 Parallel Tool Carrier Offers More Power

The WA250PZ-6 gets its power and productivity from a Komatsu SAA6D107E-1 engine. This engine has a net power of 138 hp (103 kW),is EPA Tier III emissions certified and provides high productivity with low fuel consumption and low noise.

STOCKHOLM (AP) Swedish truckmaker AB Volvo returned to a profit inthe second quarter from a loss a year ear-lier, helped by a gradual pickup indemand and improved productivity, itsaid July 22.

The company, based in Goteborg,southern Sweden, said net sales increasedby 27 percent.

The profit sharply beat analysts’ expec-tations, despite the fact that sales wereweaker than forecast.

Sydbank analyst Morten Imsgard saidthe report was very strong overall, show-ing the positive effects of previous cost-cuts, and that the construction equipmentdivision performed particularly well.

“They have really pulled it off withvery impressive margins in that busi-ness,” he said. “We can really see the costcutting effect coming through in thesmaller divisions.”

Imsgard added it also was positive forthe future to see demand pick up in the

North American truck market. Volvo’s CEO Leif Johansson said the

pickup in sales helped improve the com-pany’s profitability, combined with strictcost control and “a good productivitydevelopment.”

“The pace in the recovery in demandhas been rather moderate, which is posi-tive as it gives us a good opportunity tocontinue with the activities that con-tribute to further increasing productivityand efficiency,” Johansson said.

He added that the sales trend had beenparticularly strong in Asia and SouthAmerica, while volumes in Europe, NorthAmerica and Japan are still at low levelsfrom a historical perspective.

“We anticipate that the demand for newtrucks in North America will continue torise during the second half of this yearand that the gradual increase in Europealso will continue,” he said.

Johansson reiterated his previous fore-cast that the European truck market willgrow some 10 percent in 2010, while theNorth American market growth is expect-ed at between 20 and 30 percent.

Volvo Returns to Profit in 2ndQuarter as Demand Picks Up

Old Farm Site Found Under Urbana Bike Path ProjectBy Tom KacichTHE (CHAMPAIGN) NEWS-GAZETTE

URBANA, Ill. (AP) You have to wonderwhat Fountain J. Busey would think if heknew that people were scavenging aroundhis property.

Busey was a real Champaign County pio-neer, arriving here in 1829 (four years beforethe county was established) from ShelbyCounty, Ky., with his parents, Matthew andSallie Busey. In 1836, he purchased a 40-acre parcel of prairie about 2 mi. southeast ofdowntown Urbana along what is now HighCross Road, or Illinois 130.

Sometime later, perhaps around the timeof the Civil War, someone built a small cabinon the site. Busey had sold the property bythen, although it’s possible another memberof the locally famous family was living onthe site.

Now, around 150 years later, the city ofUrbana intends to build a $800,000, 8-ft. (2.4m)-wide multi-use path on the east side ofHigh Cross Road right over the originalBusey property. So before constructionbegins, researchers from the Illinois State

Archaeological Survey at the University ofIllinois (formerly known as the IllinoisTransportation Archaeological ResearchProgram) are recovering and analyzingitems found at the site.

“This is standard protocol for any federalhighway-funded project,” said CraigShonkwiler, an engineer with the city ofUrbana who is project manager of the HighCross Road project. “It’s really the rightthing for us to do. Years ago, people didn’tknow about these sites or they just blastedthrough.”

But it’s unique, especially in East CentralIllinois, for public works projects to comeupon any archaeological sites, he said.

“In my career, and I’ve been doing this forabout 15 years now, it’s the only road-bikekind of project where this has come up,”Shonkwiler said.

“Most of the time, we’re just resurfacingan existing road anyway so it doesn’t comeup. In this area, this is a rare occurrence.”

Last fall, Ian Fricker, an archaeologistwith the state archaeology survey, surveyedthe proposed path from Windsor Road toUniversity Avenue.

“On the surface we found broken crock-ery, china, glass, some bricks, stuff like that,”said Fricker, an assistant district directorwith the archaeological survey. “We wereable to date the materials, and we knew wehad an early site here so we decided to digfurther.”

Fricker and a crew of four people haveexcavated about 32,000 sq. ft. of the eastUrbana property now owned by Menard Inc.

“It looks like we have a mid-19th centurycabin site,” he said.

“Specifically, we were able to locate asmall cellar, what you might call a trapdoorcellar, located beneath the cabin. We’ve alsogot a well and what probably was a refusepit.”

Among the items excavated, Fricker said,are bits of china, iron nails, bottle glass, evenan animal hoof. But no parts of the cabin orits foundation have been recovered, he said.

“Of course, the foundations of housesthen were not the same as what we havetoday,” he said. “Those houses were veryportable. You could literally pick them upand move them.”

Mark Branstner, a historic archaeologist

with the archaeology survey, said the itemsrecovered “are a pretty typical assemblagedating from about 1850 to 1870. Other thanthe fact that this is associated with the Buseyfamily, which at least locally elevates it forus, this is what we find pretty routinely.

“We had hoped for something from the1830s or 1840s, dating from the earliest set-tlement period. But nothing’s jumping out atus.”

Branstner said he’s able to narrow theitems to the Civil War era because of thepieces of dishware.

“Because dishes change style quickly andthey usually get broken quickly and deposit-ed into the site, they give us a good timelineof what is going on there,” he said.

Fountain J. Busey, according to the localhistory book, “Pioneers of ChampaignCounty” by Milton Mathews and LewisMcLean, moved quite a bit himself.

His first property was an 80-acre tractnear Urbana for which he paid $1.25 an acre,the authors wrote. He traded that for landalong the Sangamon River, and sold that in1843 for a tract in Sidney, where he spent therest of his life.

Cat’s New 973D Boasts More Power Than Its PredecessorCompleting the Cat D-Series track loader lineup is the

new 973D, featuring load-sensing hydraulics, joystick steer-ing, new operator's station, with tilting cab and 10 percentmore power than its 973C predecessor.

The new loader retains some of the Cat 973C’s features,including the Cat C9 engine, hydrostatic drive, single-fabri-cation mainframe, Z-bar loader linkage and oscillatingundercarriage. The 973D is designed for steel mills, landfills,quarries and demolition sites.

The 973D’s new closed-center, load-sensing implementhydraulic system uses a variable-displacement pump thatproduces the precise volume of oil required for the job athand, resulting in pumping less oil, conserving fuel, generat-ing less heat and freeing horsepower to drive the tracks moreefficiently. According to Caterpillar the new system alsoallows seamless, simultaneous use of lift, tilt and travel func-tions.

Complementing the new hydraulic system are lift and tiltcylinders using position sensing electronics, allowing opera-tors to set lift and tilt kick-outs from the cab. Kick-outs arequickly reset for each job, or even each truck, to assure fastcycle times. In addition, end-of-travel snubbing assures thatcylinders stop smoothly with less shock.

Operator Station Amenities The new operator’s station offers either joystick steering

or pedal steering. The steering joystick also provides trans-mission control, allowing the operator to select travel direc-tion and ground speed, while the pedal-steer system works inconjunction with the Cat “V-pattern” transmission controller.

Buyers also have a choice of loader controls, either joy-stick or two-lever. The new 973D loader controls are seat-mounted and electro-hydraulically actuated, compared withconsole-mounted and pilot-actuated(hydraulically assisted). The new seat-mounted, low-effort controls move withthe operator as the seat is adjusted, trans-mit less vibration and provide fast, pre-cise hydraulic response, according to themanufacturer.

The new cab is sound-suppressed(rated at 74 dB-A), sealed, pressurized,air-conditioned, resiliently mounted andtilts for access to major components.Increased glass area improves visibilityall around, and the new fender designyields sharper sightlines out the rear win-dow. Acompact new dash includes both agauge cluster that monitors vital systemsand the Messenger display screen, withreal-time performance and diagnostic information.

Reliable Power Train, Robust StructuresThe 8.8 L, 263-net hp (196 kW) Cat C9 diesel engine that

meets U.S. EPA Tier-III and European Union Stage IIIAstandards, uses Caterpillar ACERT technology for emis-sions-control and fuel-economy. Anew on-demand, viscous-clutch cooling fan helps further lower fuel consumption andsound.

The electronically controlled Cat Hystat hydrostatic drivesystem powers and controls each track independently via avariable-displacement pump and motor. The Hystat systemallows both tracks to be powered through gradual turns, sim-plifies straight-line travel when working across slopes andprovides good maneuverability with its counter-rotation

capability.The 973D’s main-frame, loader-tower is fabricated of sin-

gle-slab primary rails, cross-member reinforcing and cast-ings or forgings in high-stress areas to provide long-termdurability for supporting multiple rebuilds. Oscillating trackframes help smooth the operator’s ride, lessen shock loads tothe machine and contribute to the 973D’s stability. Z-bar-type loader linkage uses massive single-slab boom arms anddual bell-cranks, each with its own tilt cylinder, to deliversolid breakout power.

Service access to drive-train and hydraulic-system com-ponents is simplified on the 973D with its tilting cab. Thecab can be tilted 90 degrees with an external lifting deviceand 30 degrees in the field using an hydraulic jack availableas standard. All routine-maintenance points are easily acces-

sible from ground level, and oil-sampling ports,quick-connect pressure taps and ground-levelemergency shut-down switch are standardequipment.

Job Specific ConfigurationsTwo waste handling packages add guarding,

debris barriers, cooling-system enhancementsand an air-intake pre-cleaner. The standardpackage is designed for landfills, transfer sta-tions and material-recovery facilities, while thesevere package affords maximum protection indemanding work, such as demolition.

The steel-mill package, allowing the 973D towork safely and reliably when handling hot slag

around blast furnaces, features a sealed undercarriage; fire-retardant fluids; heat shields for the fuel tank, power trainand hydraulic components; silicone seals; heat-resistantwindshield and remote parking-brake release.

For work in soft underfoot conditions, the wide-gaugepackage provides a stretched track gauge and low-ground-pressure track shoes. These features are complemented witha wider bucket for grading and backfilling applications.

In addition to these application-specific packages, otheroptional packages are available, including a three-shank par-allelogram ripper, multi-purpose bucket, added counter-weight and a deluxe maintenance package for fast oilchanges and fuel-sediment flushing. Caterpillar also offerscustom designed solutions to meet client’s exact needs.

Rental Industry ForecastShows Signs of Improvement

The latest information from economicforecasting firm IHS Global Insight preparedfor the American Rental Association (ARA)and Rental Management magazine reportedthat the equipment rental industry is startingto show signs of recovery from the nationalrecession.

“The Outlook report indicates that theworst may be over for the equipment rentalindustry,” said Christine Wehrman, CEO,American Rental Association. “The U.S.economy is proving its resilience withgrowth returning to many sectors. However,construction spending continues to lagbehind the rest of the economy. While con-struction spending is weak, spending onrental is beginning to grow and is leading theway in the construction space. We see theequipment rental industry gaining momen-tum in 2010 and 2011, with significantgrowth moving into 2012. These are positivesigns for the entire economy as manufactur-ers, service providers and other vendorsbegin their budget planning for 2011 in thecoming weeks and months.

“Although nonresidential construction,state and local spending remain down, otherareas of the U.S. construction market havebegun to rebound. With business equipmentinvestments surging, almost $6 billion instimulus money flowing into the economy in2010 and consumer confidence drivingincreased demand, the equipment rentalindustry is poised to gain strength in Q3 andQ4, with improvement in all categories fore-casted for 2011,” said Wehrman.

The equipment rental industry is made upof three general market segments:Construction & Industrial Equipment,General Tool and Party & Event. Influencedby the decline in both residential and nonres-idential construction spending, theConstruction & Industrial Equipment mar-ket has been hit hardest by the recession.Economic indicators show that employmentin the construction industry has increasedsignificantly with the onset of the 2010 con-struction season.

“This is a positive sign for the equipmentrental market as cautious contractors willincrease their equipment fleets throughshort-term and long-term rentals to keepemployees productive,” said Wehrman.

According to IHS Global Insight, eventhough General Tool did not take as hard of

hit as the Construction & IndustrialEquipment market in the recession, it diddecline as consumers postponed plannedhome improvement and do-it-yourself proj-ects during the recession. Although newhousing starts remain low, residential con-struction has noticeably increased in the pastyear and is forecasted to continue its recov-ery over the year as consumers are now will-ing to spend money on updating or repairingtheir homes.

“With consumer confidence growinghomeowners and small business owners willrely on their rental stores to supply them withthe tools they need to get these delayed proj-ects started in 2010,” said Wehrman.

Party & Event equipment rentals havebeen the least influenced by the recent reces-sion. Experiencing only a modest decline in2009, this category is forecasted to grow in2010. This is largely due to the consumerside of the business, which includes wed-dings, anniversaries, graduations and othercelebrations. Fashion and trends influencethis market, and consumers expect rentalcompanies to have the latest options.Already, manufacturers and serviceproviders in the Party & Event market haveinvested the time and resources needed todevelop and market new products.

“With the influx of capital into this marketin 2010, and positive customer demand, theParty & Event market is poised to be a leaderin our industry regarding the market’s recov-ery into 2011 and beyond,” said Wehrman.

Powered by a 35-hp (26 kW), liquid-cooled Isuzu diesel engine, the TLB-6235 is driv-en by an axial piston motor capable of running at higher pressures and RPMs.

With the ESL backhoe design andenhanced digging power, the Allmand TLB-6235 four-wheel drive compact tractorloader backhoe easily meets the needs ofgeneral construction, landscaping, utility andany other small to mid-size earthmovingapplications.

The TLB-6235 features a full-timemechanical four-wheel drive system, offer-ing efficient functionality through a hydro-static transmission. The addition of four-wheel drive provides increased versatilityover two-wheel drive models, allowingoperators to work in more adverse condi-tions.

Powered by a 35-hp (26 kW), liquid-cooled Isuzu diesel engine, the TLB-6235 isdriven by an axial piston motor capable ofrunning at higher pressures and RPMs,increasing efficiency. The TLB-6235 housesa 65-hp (48 kW) rated servo-controlledhydrostatic transmission. The servo-controlsystem provides positive neutral and infinitecontrol of the machine, as well as reducedpedal effort in either forward or reverse trav-el mode. Additionally, the transmission caseis constructed from cast iron to minimizenoise.

Allmand’s ESL (Extended Service Life)backhoe design features oversized pins withcomposite bearings and urethane lip seals inall working joints. This design greatlyreduces friction and extends service intervalsby eliminating metal-to-metal contact,retaining grease and keeping debris out. Foradded safety, the TLB-6235 backhoe fea-tures Allmand’s heavy-duty boom lock,which can be easily engaged or disengagedfrom the operator’s seat.

With a 6,000-lb. (2,721 kg) bucket dig-

ging force, the TLB-6235’s industrial classbackhoe reaches up to a 9-ft. 10-in. (3 m)digging depth, and a dual cylinder 180-degree hydraulic cushioned swing allowsprecise work in tight areas, while joystickcontrols provide simple, smooth operation.The TLB-6235 loader features an extendedreach loader enabling the 0.5-cu. yd. (0.4 cum) loader bucket to dump loads where othercompact tractors cannot reach.

A load sensing hydraulic steering systemrequires hydraulic flow only when the oper-ator turns the steering wheel. This systemincreases productivity and enhances per-formance by providing the maximum avail-able hydraulic power to the backhoe, loaderor attachment. To extend the life of hydrauliccomponents, the TLB-6235 features a high-capacity hydraulic oil cooler.

A planetary rear axle assembly providesadded strength, enabling the unit to handlesevere terrain and extending life expectancy.In addition, a planetary axle design producespower to all wheels with less input torque tothe ring and pinion, reducing loads on com-ponents.

Other TLB-6235 features include: heavy-duty front bumper, skid plates, roundedhood, float control on the front-end loader,easily-accessible service ports on backhoes,and high flotation, low ground pressure tires.

The TLB-6235’s operator area minimizesfatigue through ergonomic controls and pro-vides a commanding view of both the loaderand backhoe work areas. Standard four-postROPS and retractable seat belts are certifiedfor both driving and backhoe positions.

Kubota M59 Tractor Loader BackhoeFeatures Digging Depth of 12 Feet

Kubota’s M59 power utility tractorloader backhoe features a powerful 59-hp (44 kW), three-vortex combustionsystem (E-TVCS) diesel engine thatallows increased airflow into the com-bustion chamber and increases efficien-cy. The system includes a large dis-placement engine to help reduce noiseand vibration and features a standardspark arrestor muffler, built-in for safe-ty when working in dry areas. TheM59’s HST-Plus hydrostatic transmis-sion provides control of both the HSTpump and motor with key featuresincluding hydro dual speed, load sens-ing ability, HST response control andauto throttle advance.

“We are very excited to be introduc-ing our M59 power utility tractor as themost powerful TLB that Kubota cur-rently has on the market,” said KeithRohrbacker, Kubota product managerof construction equipment. “With four-wheel drive for power and stability, anintegrated main frame, a heavy-dutyrear axle for extended life and multiplewet disc brakes for smooth stoppingperformance, the M59 is rugged, versa-tile and performs well on the job.”

A Deeper DigKubota’s M59 TLB offers a host of

features designed to make diggingwork easier. With a backhoe that offers12-ft. (3.6 m) digging depth, bucketdigging force of more than 7,600 lbs.(34,473 kg) and dipper digging force of4,731 lbs. (2,146 kg), the M59 can han-dle even the toughest soil conditions.High capacity hydraulic pumps allowfor smooth and efficient managementwith virtually every material — stone,gravel, sand, silt or clay. The M59offers convenience with a quick mountattach/detach system for easy backhoe

removal and enclosedhydraulic hoses forimproved visibility and anoverall cleaner design,according to the manufactur-er.

(2 m) bucket,the loader makes the M59 aproductive machine. Thebraceless frame, slantedboom and sloped hooddesign improve operator vis-ibility when changing frontattachments. The M59employs a quick attach cou-

pler and optional third function valvefor easy use of attachments.

bilities, Kubota’s M59 was designedwith operator comfort in mind. Alongwith features such as a comfortablearm rest and convenient side positiondisplay, this TLB boasts a full-flat deck,which provides ample leg room andmakes mounting and dismountingeffortless. An efficient “backhoe crawl-ing mode” feature allows movement at“creep” speed while at the controls of

the backhoe. This is especially timesaving when repositioning alonglengthy trenches. The four-post roll-over protective structure improvesoperator safety.

In addition, Kubota offers aCategory I/II three-point hitch for avariety of tool handling capabilities,which make it more powerful andeasy to utilize. With remote hydrauliccontrol valves, a greater selection ofhydraulically powered implementscan be used with the M59.

Total Machine Control (TMC) is theway John Deere has chosen to imple-ment electrohydraulics on constructionand forestry equipment. It provides formore intuitive controls and enablesautomation of functions that operatorspreviously had to do manually, accord-ing to the manufacturer.

This option for the John Deere310SJ and 410J backhoe loaders givesoperators comfort, faster cycle timesand the best automatic features of anexcavator and 4WD loader built intoone machine.

The TMC difference starts in theoperator’s seat. Armrest-mounted joy-stick controls turn with the seat andeliminate pilot towers, resulting inenhanced visibility, added comfort andreduced heat in the cab, due to theabsence of hydraulic oil used in othercontrol systems.

Total Machine Control also meansno more foot pedals or extra levers tocontrol the stabilizers, extendable dip-perstick and front/rear auxiliaryhydraulics — all are now controlledwithin finger tip reach of the joystick.

The Right Controls for the Job Site

Working in close-quarter job sites oraround traffic is easier with the TMCsystem. Operators can use the mini-joystick on the right-hand controller tomove the backhoe and loader simulta-neously and maneuver the machinearound obstacles.

More Precision, More Production

Precise controls enable the operatorto dig more accurately and gentlyaround buried pipe or cable. For evenmore precision, integral-controlledload lowering and regenerativehydraulic functions improve operationwith Worksite Pro attachments.

Total Machine Control units alsofeature three speed modes: craning,normal and a high-production modethat can improve cycle times up to 20percent.

Tool Carrier Option A dedicated Tool Carrier (TC)

option is available for the 310SJ and

410J backhoes equipped with TMC. Deere’s heavily reinforced Worksite

Pro loader coupler not only providesenhanced visibility, it also picks up cur-rent Deere Worksite Pro attachments,older Deere-JRB attachments and awide variety of competitor loaderattachments for additional versatility.

Electronic parallel lift, return-to-carry and boom height kick-out fea-tures increase loader productivity nomatter what attachment is used. Oneadvantage is the ability to “turn off’parallel lift when the forks have beendropped and a bucket is in use. Theoperator has parallel lift when, and onlywhen needed.

Tool Carrier backhoes with TMCalso have increased loader lift specifi-cations for high-performance tool carri-er work.

In addition, the 310SJ and 410J TCbackhoes with TMC are designed to besimple and easy to maintain.

They feature fewer loader parts — asingle bucket cylinder, no Z-bar link-age, no self-leveling rod — and amongthe industry’s fewest grease zerks.

ITT Corp. Signs Agreement to Purchase Godwin PumpsITT Corporation, a global high-technolo-

gy engineering and manufacturing companyand a leader in the transport and treatment ofwater and wastewater, June 21 announced itsagreement to purchase privately heldGodwin Pumps. Godwin is a supplier ofautomatic self-priming portable pumps usedin the growing markets for drainage pumprental, services and sales serving the globalindustrial, construction, mining, municipal,oil and gas segments.

ITT has agreed to purchase Godwin fromits principal shareholders for $585 million.The transaction is expected to close in thethird quarter of 2010, pending customaryregulatory approvals.

“This acquisition is another example ofITT’s strategy to expand our core businessesand build on our strong global positions inwater, wastewater and industrial process,”said Gretchen McClain, president of ITT’sFluid and Motion Control group. “Godwin’sbusiness is a great complement to our exist-ing fluid technology portfolio, and is expect-ed to establish ITT among the leaders in thegrowing and profitable $3 billion globalmarket for dewatering pumps and rentalservices.”

Godwin Pumps, founded in 1976, isbased in Bridgeport, N.J., and has approxi-mately 800 employees located throughoutthe United States and at its manufacturingfacility in Gloucestershire, England. Thecompany operates a U.S. rental fleet of morethan 6,000 pumps at 26 equipment rentalfacilities and a network of approximately 50distributors worldwide. Godwin’s 2009 rev-enues were approximately $200 million,with full-year 2010 revenue projected to beabout $235 million. When combined withITT’s existing dewatering sales, the Godwinacquisition is expected to double ITT’s rev-enues from dewatering equipment and serv-ices.

Godwin is best known for its servicecapabilities in dewatering (the removal ofunwanted water and other fluids) and theoriginal Dri-Prime pump, an automatic self-priming centrifugal pump range capable ofhandling industrial sludges, oil, sewage,storm water, mine dewatering and otherpumping needs. Upon closing of the acquisi-tion, Godwin will become part of ITT’s $1.6billion Water & Wastewater business.

“The acquisition presents a tremendousopportunity for ITT to grow its dewatering

rental and services business internationally,”said John Williamson, president of ITT’sWater & Wastewater business. “We already

have a solid history of partnership, withGodwin offering ITT’s electric submersiblepumps since 2003. Adding the specializedproducts and skills of the world-classGodwin team to ITT’s broad Flygt andGrindex submersible pump portfolio andglobal sales network means our customers

will have unsurpassed access to the broadestdewatering capabilities on the market.”

ITT today sells Flygt and Grindex branddewatering pumps, and rents from its fleet ofmore than 11,000 pumps, through its globalsales and distribution network serving cus-tomers in more than 140 countries. ITT’sFlygt pumps are the original submersibledewatering pumps, invented in 1948.

John Michael Paz, founder and chiefexecutive officer of Godwin Pumps, sees theacquisition by ITT as a global expansionopportunity for Godwin’s products and serv-ices.

“Over the last 30 years, Godwin employ-ees and our strong distribution network havebuilt the Godwin brand and reputation, and Iam pleased to see this opportunity for futuregrowth. The combination of these two tal-ented teams should result in tremendousopportunities for both companies.”

ITT currently forecasts that the transac-tion will be accretive to ITT’s 2011 earningsper share, and dilutive to its current yearearnings by an estimated three to five centsper share, reflecting the purchase accountingtreatment and transaction fees.

About R. G. Smith Equipment CompanyOver the course of 60 years, R. G. Smith Equipment

Company has grown to become a leading Chicagoland truckup fitter that provides sales, parts, fabrication and service toroad contractors, landscapers, municipal public worksdepartments and refuse haulers.

Roger G. Smith and Albert Majeres founded the compa-ny in 1950 when they purchased a small gas station in DesPlaines, Ill., where they employed a few mechanics.

The company soon began installing dump bodies, dumptrailers, tankers and refuse bodies for the Heil Company.

In addition to Smith’s uncle in the south suburbs ofChicago, the company became the northside distributors forthe Heil Company. Smith did the selling and Majerus man-aged the accounting.

Within a few years the business expanded so rapidly thatthe company relocated to a larger facility. R. G. SmithEquipment Company remained in Des Plaines, relocating toa 4-acre parcel with an approximately 20,000-sq.-ft. oldbrick building, previously used for washing vegetables,which Smith and Majerus converted into their shop. Ahouseattached to the facility was used as their sales office.

Majeres died in 1981 and Smith died in 1999. Smith’s

two daughters Patsy and Shirlee Smith, continued the fami-ly business and became a certified WBE/DBE company.

In June 2004, R. G. Smith Equipment Company movedinto a newly renovated 45,000-sq.-ft. facility on a 5.5-acreparcel conveniently located 5 mi, north of the company’sO’Hare location at 622 East Northwest Highway, DesPlaines, Ill. At this time, Ernie Szabo joined the company asits general manager, bringing with him 36 years of truckequipment knowledge. His expertise helps engineer anddesign custom equipment.

Despite challenging economic times, R. G. Smith hascontinued to grow. Product lines include dump bodies andtrailers, municipal equipment, service bodies, wet kits, lift-gates, hydraulics and fabrication. In addition to Bagelaasphalt recyclers, the company recently began representingthe Allianz Sweeper Company.

Years ago, Roger Smith had a quote framed on the wallnext to his desk that read, “An organization succeeds, notbecause it is big, or because it is long established, but in itare people who live it, sleep it, dream it and build futureplans for it.”

Today, the company still operates by that creed.For more information, visit

Ziegler CAT, the Caterpillar dealer of Minnesota and west,central, and northeast Iowa, has signed an agreement withWhayne Supply to be a Mirenco dealer in its territory.

Whayne Supply is the national distributor for Mirencoproducts and diesel combustion testing. Whayne is establish-ing distributors of Mirenco products and services throughoutthe North American Caterpillar dealer network. Mirenco is acompany that developed a procedure to evaluate dieselengine combustion efficiency. After diesel exhaust gases andparticulate are evaluated Mirenco analyzes the results andcalculates the amount of fuel in gallons per year going out theexhaust as unburned diesel fuel. The evaluation processmeasures the same exhaust gases and diesel particulate thatthe EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) now measurefor meeting state and national emission regulations.

Mirenco also has developed products that can be installedon Diesel-powered equipment called C-Max (for digital-controlled fuel injected engines) or D-Max (for analog-con-trolled fuel injected engines). Mirenco’s evaluation productsand services are useful to those who operate diesel engines inmining, construction, and over-the-road trucking. The prod-ucts and services can help equipment owners lower engineemissions, reduce fuel consumption and enhance equipmentmanagement, according to the company.

“I was in awe watching O’Reilly just grabstuff and just pull it apart as if there was noeffort,” he said. “You could tell it wasn’t hisfirst rodeo.”

Not Done YetCleaning the aluminum out of the pit was

another big challenge, O’Reilly said. “Basically that pit was 20 feet wide and

about 50 feet long with about 24 inches ofaluminum that solidified across that wholefloor,” he said.

According to O’Reilly, the cavity was“completely full of aluminum” with solidbars of aluminum 34-feet (10.4 m) long, 10in. (25.4 cm) thick and 18 in. (45.7 cm) wide.

“When we went in there was no way toget that aluminum out. I had a number of dif-ferent people come out and look at it andthey didn’t even want to touch the job,” hesaid. “That’s when we got in contact withESAB.”

Jon Mench, territory sales manager ofESAB Welding and Cutting Products, rec-ommended a special powder-cutting torchthat he said could cut through the two-to-three feet of aluminum in the pit.

“The torch injects metal powder as itworks,” O’Reilly said. “That oxides the alu-minum as you cut it. It was well worth themoney.

“We have done a great deal of work in ashort amount of time with a number of com-panies coming together to make this projectpossible. Under normal circumstances thisproject would take eight months to a year todo.”

O’Reilly expects the project, which wasbegun in February, to wrap up early thismonth.

Cavalcade of EquipmentOther equipment used by O’Reilly

Fabrication and Welding Services on theproject includes a 53-ft. (16.1 m) step decktrailer, a Cobra end-dump, Freightliner semi-tractors, a Terex RT 665, a Gehl Dyna lift, aJohn Deere 325 skid steer, a Skytrack 8042,two Miller Big Blue 400P diesel welders, aThermal Dynamics “Hog” diesel welder, aMiller 350 electric welder, a ThermalDynamics Cutmaster 152 plasma cutter, aTerex light tower, ESAB torch, four ESABmiggy tracks and four Miller SuitCase feed-ers. O’Reilly used one Miggy Track to welda 40-ft. (12.2 m) long weld and others on thefloor and retrofitted another to use the plas-ma cutter on site.

pendent conveyor and auger con-trols.

The Cat C4.4 engine is a 4-cylinder, turbocharged dieselengine that provides 142 hp (106kW) of power. A deck-mountedcooling system provides coolintake air in order to maximize fuelefficiency and minimize emis-sions. The exhaust air exits towardthe hopper providing a cool enginecompartment and cleaner workingenvironment for the crew.

The dual swing-out stations, tilt-ing consoles and low profile designof the cooling system provide goodforward visibility that enables theoperator to communicate effective-ly with the truck driver while mon-itoring mix in the hopper.Extending the stations beyond themachine frame also enables goodjoint-matching capability and opti-mal rearward visibility to the auger

chamber, according to the manu-facturer.

An advisor monitoring systemlocated on the left operating stationprovides an interactive interface toassist the operator. The systemincludes project planning calcula-tors, start-up checklists, engineoperating conditions and manyother features to assist the operator.The system also lists fault codesfor machine functions, makingtroubleshooting quick and easy.

The non-directional radial drivetires provide a large ground contactarea for good flotation, stabilityand tractive effort for pushingtrucks and working on inclines onboth hard surfaces or soft basematerials.

A position sensor located in theleft steering cylinder helps main-tain consistent travel speeds whenmaking turns by adjusting the drive

speed of the propel motors accord-ing to the steering angle of the frontwheels, leading to better mat qual-ity and less wear on the drive sys-tem. The front wheel assist optionprovides power to the front bogiewheels for added traction whenpushing trucks or working on softbase, while the all-wheel driveoption provides power to the frontand rear bogie wheels, maximizingtractive effort.

Mobility and consistent speedsare keys to efficient paving opera-tions. The Cat system is equippedwith automatic speed control andthree propel/steering modes:PAVE, TRAVEL and MANEU-VER. The TRAVEL mode pro-vides speeds of up to 10 mph (16kmh), enabling the AP500E to bequickly repositioned around thejob site. The PAVE mode enablesthe automatics for mix delivery,

while the MANEUVER modeallows 2.5 ft. (0.75 m) inside turn-ing radius for mobility in tightquarters.

Automated controls and well-designed components reduce seg-regation potential and maximizeefficiency for higher mat quality.The system utilizes four individualpumps that enable each conveyorand each auger to deliver the exactamount of mix to the screed. Theleft and right conveyors in additionto the left and right augers are con-trolled independently ensuring mixdemand is met when increasing ordecreasing paving widths. Ratiocontrol dials and sensors (mechan-ical or sonic) signal the augers andconveyors to run faster or slowerwhen changing paving widths,thus keeping the head of materialat the set level. When pavingaround obstacles the system auto-matically makes the necessaryadjustments for uniform mix deliv-ery.

The 25 kW, belt-driven genera-tor provides quiet power for theelectric screed heat, auxiliary lightsand job site tools. The 7 kW auxil-iary power panel is equipped withsix, 120-volt receptacles and one,240-volt receptacle, providingpower for job site lighting andother work tools.

The AS2252C Vers-A-Matvibratory screed features narrowfront-mounted extenders. Theextenders utilize 9 in. (23 cm) widescreed plates, allowing it to workclose to obstacles and making it aperfect fit for commercial applica-tions by reducing the need forhandwork when changing pavingwidths.

The AS3251C Extend-A-Matvibratory screed features hydrauli-cally driven, rear-mounted exten-ders. Heavy-duty support tubesstabilize the extenders, providingrigidity for even material flowwhen paving wider widths.

The AP500E, when equipped with the AS2252C screed, has an operating weight of 33,715 lb. (15,290 kg) and when equipped with theAS3251C screed has an operating weight of 34,220 lb. (15,520 kg).

Caterpillar Second Quarter Profit Soars; Raises OutlookBy Stephen ManningAP BUSINESS WRITER

Caterpillar’s second-quarter earnings shotup 91 percent with the heavy machinerymanufacturer reporting robust sales ofequipment for industries that range frommining and infrastructure to energy.

The company boosted its 2010 profit out-look as well on July 22, saying it is trying tokeep up with new orders and will ramp upproduction of its signature black-and-yellowequipment in the second half of the year.

The results and Caterpillar’s own forecastreflect an uneven recovery and some anxietyabout what kind of rebound to expect.Emerging markets like China and Brazil, notU.S. or Europe, still lead the way.

Asian sales grew by 62 percent to $1.7 bil-lion. Caterpillar said overall sales of machin-ery were helped by low interest rates andhigher metal prices that spurred miningactivity, and a brighter global economic pic-ture.

The North American market, Caterpillar’sbiggest, saw sales rise 43 percent. The com-pany said the growth was driven by animprovement in home construction, a mod-est increase in federal spending for high-ways, and better prices in sectors like metals,

coal and lumber. While sales are up, Caterpillar has not

brought back most of the 19,000 full-time

and 18,000 contract and part time workers itwas forced to shed during the recession.Caterpillar added about 3,650 new workersby the end of the second quarter to push itstotal employment to about 97,500. A third ofthose jobs were outside the United States.

Caterpillar CEO Doug Oberhelman noted“significant economic concerns” that remainglobally, but he remained optimistic.

“We continue to be positive about thelonger-term prospects for many of the indus-tries we serve,” he said.

Caterpillar is a bellwether of industrialactivity and broader industrial growth.Almost every sector needs the products that

Caterpillar sells in order to grow, whether it’sa utility installing new power lines or adeveloper building new homes. When theeconomy is expanding, Caterpillar sellsmore of its backhoes, mining equipment andengines.

When the recession set in, Caterpillar wasamong the first to feel it.

The company’s quarter and its forecastreflect a global recovery and economies stillsmarting from the economic downturn.

For instance, dealer inventories remained

flat, which is good compared with last yearduring the same period when inventorieswere trimmed by nearly $1.9 billion. On theother hand, dealers have yet to beginrestocking, which is usually what happenswhen an economic recovery is gainingmomentum.

Still, Caterpillar has posted two strongquarters this year after seeing profits tumbledrastically in 2009 and the company’s out-look cheered investors.

Caterpillar reported second-quarter netincome of $707 million, or $1.09 per share.That is from $371 million, or 60 cents pershare of profit a year ago.

Sales rose 31 percent to $10.4 billion,with Caterpillar reporting gains in machin-ery sales in all four global regions it serves.Manufacturing costs fell by $316 million,helping to fatten profits.

That easily topped Wall Street expecta-tions of 85 cents per share of earnings onrevenue of $9.8 billion.

For all of 2010, Caterpillar expects to earnbetween $3.15 to $3.85 per share, up from aprevious forecast of $2.50 to $3.25 per share.It also tightened its revenue forecast, bump-ing up the lower range by $100 million.Caterpillar now expects between $39 billionto $42 billion in revenue.

“We continue to be positive about thelonger-term prospects for many of theindustries we serve.”

ARTBA Director: StimulusInvestments a Bright Spotating jobs in direct construction and the sup-ply sectors and all of it is boosting the econ-omy,” Gannon said.

He cautioned that while the recovery actwas currently supporting transportationwork and jobs in 2010, its impacts will phasedown quickly when those funds are nolonger available in 2011.

“Frankly, the uncertain outlook about thereauthorization of the federal highway andpublic transportation programs is making achallenging situation worse,” Gannon said.”It also is the uncertainty and trepidationcaused by how the delay is being handled —with short-term extensions and deficitspending.”

Gannon told the committee that for 50years the federal-aid highway and transit

programs have been “a model of responsibleand stable financing” benefitting systemusers.

“That dependability, which is needed toplan and execute multi-year transportationimprovement projects, is now threatened bya lack of political will to enhance HighwayTrust Fund revenues,” he said.

He closed his testimony saying that trueeconomic recovery for the transportationconstruction industry will only be realizedwhen Congress and the ObamaAdministration address the nation’s infra-structure challenges head on and pass arobustly funded highway and transit invest-ment bill.

Sinkhole Closes Section ofHighway Interchange in KC

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) A section of ahighway interchange in suburban KansasCity could be closed for several weeks whilethe state Department of Transportation triesto figure out why the area of the roadwaygave way.

The section of interchange that links west-bound Interstate 470 to westbound Interstate435 in the Grandview area was closed July17 after a portion gave way, creating a holethat covers the shoulder and two lanes ofinterstate. The department also closed thesection that includes northbound U.S. 71 towestbound Interstate 435.

Beth Wright, district engineer of theMissouri Department of Transportation inKansas City, told The Kansas City Star sheestimated the hole to be 34 ft. (10 m) wideand between 100 and 200 ft. (30.5 and 61 m)long. The hole is located just past wherenorthbound U.S. 71 merges into westboundI-470 and westbound I-435 and appears to beseveral feet deep.

“We are still investigating what actuallycaused it,” Wright said. “It’s too early totell.”

Problems on the same section of highwaystarted to appear July 8 after inspectorsfound that the soil underneath the highwaywas settling after weeks of repeated rainfall.Highway crews closed the right lane of theinterstate then after inspectors found cracked

pavement. By July 17, a retaining wall that support-

ed the ground holding up the interstate hadcome apart because the foundation under-neath had slipped away, Wright said.

The closure could mean big problems forcommuters because it’s one of the heaviestused interchanges in the Kansas City area.Traffic volumes in this area range between67,000 and 88,000 vehicles a day.

This section of highway was part of a$300 million project that rebuilt the entireGrandview Triangle over a seven-year peri-od from 2001 to 2007.

Wright said July 18 she wasn’t sure whatcontractor worked on this section of high-way or whether the pavement problemswere the contractor’s fault.

She said in an e-mail that MoDOT hascreated a Web site that includes each detourfor traffic from the area.

The closure will affect drivers on north-bound U.S. 71 from Grandview, Belton andRaymore who need to use I-435 to get intoJohnson County. It also affects drivers fromLee’s Summit who need 435 to get intoKansas.

“Until motorists become accustomed tothe new detour routes, traffic will be veryheavy and commutes will be longer,” Wrightsaid.

By Jonathan M. KatzASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

CORAIL-CESSELESSE, Haiti(AP) The sun was beating down onthe rocky cactus plain when menwith machetes came for MenmenVillase, nine months pregnant,shoved her onto her bulging stom-ach and sliced up the plastic tarpthat sheltered her and her four chil-dren.

The family was one of thou-sands of earthquake homeless whohad come to this Manhattan-sizedstretch of disused sugarcane landbetween the sea and barren moun-tains north of Port-au-Prince, seek-ing refuge from overflowingcamps in the city.

But this real estate is earmarkedfor building a new Haiti. Villasehad walked into one of the fightsover land, rooted in Haiti’s historyof slavery, occupation andupheaval, that have bedeviledrecovery in the six months sincethe earthquake leveled much of thecapital and killed as many as300,000 people.

The government, already weakbefore the magnitude-7 quake andstill hobbled by its aftermath, is try-ing to build anew in places likeCorail-Cesselesse, a nearly emptyswath of land that begins about 9mi. north of the capital. But theeffort is paralyzed by disorganiza-tion, bitter rivalries and privatedeals being struck behind its back.

Multiple families claim title toalmost every scrap of real estate.Already one reconstruction officialhas been forced to step down forsteering a public project to hiscompany’s private land at Corail-Cesselesse. Wealthy landownersvow the “new Haiti” will becomeyet another vast slum unless thegovernment rebuilds on theirterms.

Caught in the middle are thehomeless, looking to grab a patchof ground from the thugs hired tokeep them away. Even facingmachetes, Villase had to bedragged from the tarp that washome for her and four children.

“I didn’t want them to take thetent away,” she recalled. “Theysaid, ‘We don’t care. We can rip itup while you’re inside.”‘

In the moments after the disasterall Port-au-Prince began pouringinto twilit streets. Homes, still col-lapsing, had in a moment becomedeath traps. Camps rose on publicand private spaces, squares, parksand golf courses.

Bodies were everywhere, laidout under sheets, cardboard ornothing. Dump trucks and front-

loaders cleared most in the follow-ing weeks. Others were burned.Some are still being found.

The bodies have been cleared,but not the rubble. Mounds of itmake most of the capital impassa-ble. Even with 300 trucks workingdaily, only two percent has beencleared.

The number of people in reliefcamps has nearly doubled to 1.6million, while the amount of transi-tional housing built is minuscule.

Most of the $3.1 billion pledgedfor humanitarian aid has paid forfield hospitals, plastic tarps, band-ages and food, plus salaries, trans-portation and upkeep of reliefworkers. About $1.3 billion wentthrough U.S. relief groups.

Hundreds of millions have yet tobe spent, with agencies such as theAmerican Red Cross saying theywant to avoid dumping money intohalf-baked projects.

Aid workers say the moneyalready spent helped prevent epi-demics, floods and political vio-lence, while distributing food andother essentials. Food markets areback to normal, and the foreigndoctors and equipment that flowedin have left medical care — whiledeeply flawed — better than it wasbefore the quake.

Most Haitians didn’t have run-ning water and electricity beforethe quake, and still don’t.

Police and U.N. peacekeepersare back on patrol. Crime is moreprevalent since the quake, withattacks in camps terrorizing thou-sands, especially women and girls.However, violence is nowhere nearthe levels faced when the U.N.troops arrived six years ago.

But besides meeting people’smost basic needs, little else hashappened.

President Rene Preval worksbeside the caved-in hulk of thenational palace. Homes and storeslie in heaps.

More than 665,700 plastic tarpsand 97,000 tents were handed out,but most are now falling apart.Officials planned to put up 125,000transitional shelters — not nearlyenough for everyone. Only 3,722have been built. Nearly four timesas many still await assembly, shel-ter officials said.

When materials finally getthrough customs, there’s no land toput them on.

Reconstruction is still mostly aconcept.

It took more than three monthsto hold a donors’ conference at theU.N. The 26-member internationalInterim Haiti ReconstructionCommission, headed by Bill

Clinton and Haitian PrimeMinister Jean-Max Bellerive, did-n’t convene until June.

That committee is set to overseethe first installments of the $9.9 bil-lion pledged for internationalreconstruction — money separatethan the total spent on humanitari-an aid. But less than 2 percent of ithas been delivered. The rest ismired in bureaucracy and politicsof more than 60 countries andorganizations that pledged to help.

Everyone bemoans the lack ofprogress, but Bellerive said pastexperience dictates caution, lestreconstruction simply replicate thepre-quake slums.

In “the last 30 years there wasno planning with any action … nocode,” he said. “What we didn’twant to do is launch any demagog-ic, visible action [just to] prove weare working.”

Afew miles from Haiti’s biggestports and safely past its northern-most slums, Corail-Cesselesse is ablank canvas. On this vast stretchabutting one of the Caribbean’slargest cities, in a country moredensely populated than Japan, willrise garment factories, homes,stores and restaurants in one of thecountry’s first planned communi-ties, the planners said.

Just before a March visit by for-mer U.S. Presidents Clinton andGeorge W. Bush, Preval said thegovernment was taking over morethan 18,500 acres of that land toaccommodate thousands of fami-lies at risk from the coming floodsand hurricanes.

A few hundred acres werepicked out for the city’s first, long-awaited relocation camp. The U.N.and U.S. military constructionteams flattened and graded the landfor a camp of deluxe “ShelterBox”tents. About 5,000 residents of thePetionville Club golf-course camp,run by actor Sean Penn, werebused in.

Thousands of squatters whocould not get access to the “good”camp followed, staking their tarpsand poles on its outskirts.

Aid groups did not know it, butthis was a first salvo in a long-desired plan to develop this broadexpanse.

Other big plans for Port-au-Prince are on the drawing board:Rebuild the downtown; spend$100 million to restore thedestroyed government center ofthe Champ de Mars; bring back thecruise ships; hold a design compe-tition for new ministerial buildings,to be “a museum of 21st Centuryarchitecture” in the words of gov-ernment planner Leslie Voltaire.

But if you really want to see thefuture, Voltaire said, look north.

In Corail-Cesselesse, houseswould be built for 300,000 people— transitional shelters at first, buteach with a permanent facade andcapable of expanding to six rooms.There will be jobs and services thatmost of the rest of the city nowlacks.

This northern expansion willhelp transform Port-au-Prince intoa “Zen city,” engineered to be bal-anced and serene, he said. It will bethe key industrial city of theCaribbean.

“The idea is to pick up all thatimagination and wealth and put itin that mountain,” Voltaire saidwith a smile. “It’s minutes to theport. It’s going to be a hit.”

But with a barely functioninggovernment, Corail-Cesselessemay be built according to back-room deals, not planners’ blue-prints.

The government had appointedGerard-Emile “Aby” Brun, presi-dent of Nabatec Development, aconsortium owned by some ofHaiti’s most powerful families, tobe in charge of relocating thesquatter camps in Port-au-Prince.

For that first relocation camp for5,000 people, with clinics, food onpremises and some electricity, hechose a piece of Corail-Cesselesseland owned by Nabatec, confirmedVoltaire and Bellerive, the primeminister. The company now standsfirst in line to gain part of $7 mil-lion the government will spendcompensating landowners.

That’s just a small part of thepotential payoff.

Nabatec also is a lead negotiatorwith South Korean garment firmsto build factories that Haitian offi-cials said will likely go into Corail-Cesselesse, and the camp he set upis a potential source of workers forthose factories, which can takeadvantage of generous U.S. importlaws for Haitian-assembled tex-tiles.

Foreign aid workers complainedthat the camp was too far from thecity and went up without basicamenities.

“We weren’t very happy aboutthe choice of site and how it wasselected, and how it was isolated,”said Oxfam spokeswoman JulieSchindall.

Bellerive said he told Brun toquit his government positionbecause of the apparent conflict ofinterest. But the deal Brun negoti-ated for his company stands.

Rumors of the coming factoriesand jobs have already spread in thecamp.

Meanwhile, the squatters con-tinue to pour into Corail-Cesselesse.

You don’t see them until youcome up the road. First just one.Then a hundred. Then fields ofthem. Sweating through their sec-ondhand T-shirts, clutching wood-en poles, plastic sheets and tools,10,000 or more have set up tents.

Who “sent” them? No one cansay. But the landowners suspectthe government is populating theland with squatters, so it can betaken for the “new Haiti” at a min-imum price — or for nothing.

Land ownership has been a sen-sitive issue since Haiti’s 1804 slaverevolt, when it was wrested fromFrench planters and distributedamong the people, only to fall backunder the ownership of a few pow-erful families — the “grands-hommes” (big men) in Haitianparlance.

The land registry hasn’t beenupdated for decades, and many ofthe records that did exist were lostin the earthquake.

People who claim to be thelandowners said it’s worth $20,000an acre.

“My fair price is a negotiationbetween the market price and theprice the owner declared to theincome tax,” Voltaire said. “Andit’s always very low.”

Bellerive said landowners willbe compensated, but that housingthe homeless takes priority.

“If we take the time to resolve itone by one, the people are going tostay on the streets,” he said.

He could have a strong ally —Clinton, who has said he’ll plungeinto the bargaining himself, if nec-essary.

“I’m not above doing that,”Clinton told The Associated Presson a a recent visit. “I’ve beenknown to make a deal or two in mylife.”

The landowners said if they’renot compensated, the “new Haiti”in Corail-Cesselesse will end upmaking the violent slums of pre-quake Port-au-Prince look tame.They said if anyone builds therewithout their consent, they will sueto get the land back. LandownerJean-Claude Theodore calls thesquatters invaders who are attack-ing private property.

Voltaire has his own response tothreats of lawsuits or worse — agovernment backed by U.N.peacekeepers, the internationalcommunity and his blueprint.

“What do I say to them?” hesaid with a smile. “I say,‘Checkmate.”‘

Still Too Early to Evaluate Full Effect of Gulf Oil Spill enrolled to contain the oil has been way off-shore. That work recovery dynamic couldchange, however, should a summer stormcarry oil-laden waters farther inland. By theend of July, two tropical storms had threat-ened both the clean-up work and thepainstaking effort to finally contain the leak-ing oil.

The biggest economic blow so far hasbeen to industries inextricably linked to theGulf of Mexico waters — fishing, tourismand offshore drilling. Most operators of fish-ing boats and charters in Louisiana are nowworking for British Petroleum, containingoil or skimming oil from the water instead ofthrowing lines into it. State governors triedfor awhile to stave off tourist cancellationsby putting out brave calls for tourists tocome on down.

As for oil drillers, President Obama’smoratorium on offshore drilling remains athreat to close the doors on any number ofdrilling support companies in Louisiana andMississippi. A judge initially halted the ban,ruling it regulatory overkill, but the adminis-tration promptly issued a second moratoriumand hopes its language passes judicialmuster.

In response to the second ban, one com-pany — Diamond Offshore — announced itwas moving its drilling rig from the Gulf towaters off Egypt.

If undersea boring in the Gulf is stoppedby the administration for six months, hun-dreds of construction and machinery con-tractors for the industry — many of whomnever leave dry land — will face hard times.An oil industry-sponsored report by theAmerican Energy Alliance issued July 20says the 6-month moratorium could cost theregion more than 8,000 jobs – including con-struction contractors – and $2 billion in eco-nomic activity.

“The moratorium could be more costlythan the oil spill itself,” said the author of thereport, Lousiana State University professorJoseph R. Mason. A Moody’s Analyticsreport issued the same week pegs the cost ofthe oil spill itself at 17,000 regional jobs lostand more than a billion dollars in economicgrowth sacrificed.

Immediate Work Impact Is Positive

For now, though, things are not so bad.“Work actually is getting busier,” said

Anirban Basu, who is CEO of Baltimore-based Sage Policy Group and economist ofAssociated Builders and Contractors. “In theshort term, any disaster is somewhat positiveas a job producer.”

Though Basu affirmed the linkagebetween disasters and work opportunities forconstruction companies, he, too, saw long-term instability in the industry as a conse-quence of the spill. State governmentsalready are hard hit by the economy. They

also are about to have the stimulus-fundingspigot turned off. As oil spill-reducedtourism further depletes Gulf states’ rev-enues, state budgetary traumas will onlyworsen.

What Basu finds most startling is the neg-ative reaction of Gulf coast residents to themoratorium and the general response of gov-ernment to the spill. The residents’ greatestconcern clearly is that jobs are at stake.

“It is fascinating, frankly, to see the levelof outrage directed toward governmentabout jobs,” Basu said.

In June, Louisiana’s unemployment ratewas 7 percent, up from 6.8 percent in May,but still much lower than the U.S. rate of 9.5.Construction employment in the stateincreased during the month but the joblessrate remains high.

Brian Turmail, an Associated GeneralContractors spokesman in Washington,reported that members are anxious about thepotential impact of the floating oil on Gulfcontractors. Turmail said feedback frommembers in the region has been inconclu-sive, but worrisome.

“Everyone is kind of nervous because of apublic view that all the beaches are coveredwith oil,” Turmail said, which they are not— yet, anyway. “If that fear shakes out to amultiyear concern and tourism is hurt, thatwill have real impact.”

Any reduction in tourism will shrink gov-ernment budgets and result in less money forschool and infrastructure construction, heobserved. “We haven’t seen the beginning ofthe impact, or are just seeing the beginningof it.”

But not everyone shares his view. InBaton Rouge, Ken Naquin is not at all wor-ried about job losses. The CEO of theLouisiana chapter of Associated GeneralContractors is confident that few if any jobsof AGC member companies are jeopardizedby the Deepwater Horizon incident.

“It’s pretty much business as usual,”Naquin said at the end of June. “The spilland the clean-up really won’t affect ourhighway, building and utility contractors.”

This is partly because Louisiana contrac-tors are still living off stimulus money. Thestate received $433 million in AmericanRecovery & Reinvestment Act funds.

About three-dozen stimulus-funded proj-ects are under way or completed in the state,according to the American Road andTransportation Builders Association, andtwice that many are scheduled to start soon.

Louisiana’s highway projects are specifi-cally funded by a state fuel tax dedicated tosuch work, Naquin said, and doesn’t seespill-related layoffs impairing those con-tracts.

“We don’t anticipate any impact at all,” hesaid.

Impact on Some Louisiana Contractors

Part of Naquin’s confidence stems from

the fact that Louisiana’s AGC chapter has nomembers working in the oilfield industry.Those contractors are represented by theLouisiana Oilfield Contractors Association(LOCA), which was formed 43 years agowhen some road builders, oilfield servicecontractors and drilling companies organ-ized to repel attacks upon the industry byunion activists.

This story is told colorfully in the organi-zation’s published history, wherein it notesthat association organizers “are a tough andindependent group of self-made individualswho will not be intimidated. LOCA was cre-ated by determined men to resolve toughproblems… This proud tradition of facingthe toughest challenges in the industry headon and overcoming them continues at theLouisiana Oilfield Contractors Association.”

The BP oil spill may give the associationa chance to add to its toughness tradition.

If an offshore moratorium sticks, theimpact of it on the Gulf oilfield industry isincalculable, industry observers believe.Dock work and levy construction, pipelinelaying and right-of-way clearing, equipmentsupply and metal fabrication activities aswell as on-land and offshore crew assign-ments would be cut back sharply.

A Louisiana Oilfield ContractorsAssociation executive was contacted for thisarticle but did not respond.

One Louisiana company already benefit-ing from the spill is The Shaw Group. TheBaton Rouge-headquartered corporationmade a name for itself as a disaster-responsefirm after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita whenits construction division was awarded sever-al contracts.

It succeeded rather famously in pumpingsome 50 billion gallons of water out of NewOrleans in 17 days, almost two monthsquicker than expected. Construction crewsalso temporarily repaired an estimated 1,200roofs in 24 hours and built 30 temporaryhousing facilities for refugees of the storm. Itsubsequently was awarded the contract toerect a two-mile-long Inner HarborNavigation Canal Surge Barrier to protectNew Orleans from future Katrinas, and thatwork continues.

In this disaster, the international firm wasawarded a contract to construct more than120 mi. (193.1 km) of temporary sand bermsalong coastal barrier islands to — it is hoped— stop the migration of oil into ecologicallysensitive marsh areas. The work is beingdone from a fleet of scows and specializeddredging barges.

“Our roots are firmly planted in thisstate,” Shaw CEO J.M. Bernhard Jr. said ina formal news release about the contract.“As with our Hurricane Katrina recoverywork, Shaw has a deep personal interest inour state’s protection and recovery.”

Shaw public affairs representativesdeclined comment for this article.

Equipment Dealers Hold Their Breath

Construction equipment dealers in theregion are uncertain about how much miserythe spill eventually will wash ashore. One ofthe seven offices of Vermeer Midsouth Inc.is in Gulfport, Miss., and Midsouth presidentDennis Vander Molen is keeping an eye onthe drifting crisis.

“We are still trying to figure out whatopportunities for Midsouth there are in thismess. Most of the oil is still in the water andoff Louisiana where we don’t have any[sales] jurisdiction,” Vander Molen said inlate June. That day, the first oil reachedmainland Mississippi, coming ashore in thearea of Biloxi.

The Vermeer Midsouth executive said hewas aware of some funding available forcleanup work, which could include equip-ment rental or purchase. His dealershipscarry such specialty equipment as mobilevacuum excavation systems and compactloaders, both of which might be useable inbeach restoration work.

“There are some marine grants or some-thing being handed out to the county gov-ernments, but those funds are pretty limited,”Vander Molen said. “It is not going to havemuch of an impact in terms of what thosepeople can buy.”

Employment equipment to suck up thecrude oil is more likely to occur inMississippi than in Louisiana, if it happens atall, he added. “Using such equipment inLouisiana is problematic because so much ofthat coast is bayou and marsh land.”

Vander Molen said the business commu-nity is not panicking as the oil begins to stainthe coastline. “But there definitely is somefear.”

Louisiana Machinery is a statewideCaterpillar dealer, with 21 locations. Threeof its engine sales and service locations hugthe coast. Among the dealership’s offeringsare Caterpillar and MaK marine engines.The dealership notes on its Web site that itsengine outlets offer “experience to servicethe needs of the offshore petroleum industry.Our highly trained field service technicianswith offshore experience and passportsenable our customers to receive specializedmarine engine services whenever necessaryand wherever they work, worldwide.”

The impact of the spill on LouisianaMachinery was still being evaluated as Julybegan. On the one hand, the spill obviouslythreatens oil-drilling work off Louisiana’sshore.

On the other hand, it has augmented thefleet of motorized craft in the Gulf trying tocorral the oil. The result is kind of a wash forsome equipment suppliers.

“We aren’t feeling anything yet,” saidSarah Paola, marketing manager.

The mostly unstated hope of constructioncompanies and suppliers across the region isthat the feeling continues. CEG

MADISONVILLE, Ky. (AP) Mayor Will Cox hasdubbed it the project “that came out of nowhere,” and otherofficials in this western Kentucky city are just as surprisedthat $3 million in state road funds were earmarked to widena local road.

City and county officials said the money could be spenton more worthwhile projects, and they are questioning howthe College Drive project even made it onto the state’s six-year road plan, The Messenger of Madisonville reported.

“It wasn’t on anybody’s list,” Cox said. “Nobody that Ican find can say where the project came from.”

Residents along College Drive received a letter from anengineering firm in early June advising them it would beconducting a field survey of the area, the newspaper report-ed. During the survey, stakes, flagging and survey markerswere to be placed on properties in the area.

Mark Brown, a spokesman of the state TransportationCabinet, said the project is in the preliminary stage. It even-tually calls for a three-quarter mile (1.2 km), three-lane sec-tion with curbs and gutters. Brown said that adding side-walks will be studied. Cox said there have been complaintsof speeders on the street and the city is concerned thatwidening the road will increase speed.

“There are just a whole lot of things about the project thatneed to be properly vetted,” Cox said. “That process doesnot appear to have been done.”

Craig Morris, a Pennyrile Area Development District

transportation planner, said local officials are asked to prior-itize a list of projects for submission to state officials inFrankfort.

“The College Drive project didn’t get on anybody’s list,”Morris said, “and wasn’t included in the top five list that wassent to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and state legis-lature to review for the six-year road plan.”

Hopkins County Judge-Executive Donnie Carroll said hehas heard of the project, but that it was not on the priority listand cited several other projects that needed to be completedfor safety reasons. State Sen. Jerry Rhoads, D-Madisonville,said the project has been on the road plan since 2008 but waslisted as Kentucky 3052 and not College Drive.

Rhoads said the Transportation Cabinet deemed it a wor-thy project due to safety and traffic congestion issues.

He said he meets with officials from the cabinet’s District2 office and those in Frankfort to discuss road projects andthat it’s not the first time projects have appeared on the planthat didn’t go through PADD’s prioritization process.

Brown said a public meeting will be held in September atwhich residents can voice concerns or ideas for improvingthe road. Following the first public meeting, the design teamwill take the ideas they receive and study whether it is feasi-ble to incorporate them in the final design, which is expect-ed to be introduced in spring 2011. Brown cautioned thatwhile pre-construction funds are reliable, actual state con-structions funds for the biennium are not.
