counterweighted bascule bridge, which was countered by abridge proposed by South Bristol resident Beth Fisher.Boston based architect engineer Miguel Rosales designedthis smaller hydraulic powered bridge that Fisher saw asmore aesthetically pleasing than the original proposal.”

Hardesty & Hanover LLC (H&H) was brought into theproject in early 2013 to develop a third alternative that close-ly matched the scale of the Rosales concept but providedoperational reliability afforded by a counterweight balanced

design. In the end, “this smaller bascule bridge” wasapproved.

“The hope is that the new bridge, developed as a sort ofcompromise,” stated the article, “will be more aestheticallypleasing than the first design that was presented. Someviewed the original bridge design as unnecessarily large.”

The design for the new bridge makes it easier for authori-ties to maintain and results in lower maintenance costs.Features include “self-lubricated sealed bearings, as well asmaterials that meet the standards for heavy-duty marine and

industrial usage,” noted the article, which added that the cur-rent bridge experienced several mechanical failures in thesummer of 2014.

Having a long-term reliable bridge in place is importantfor MaineDOT.

“A key concern with local residents is that the bridge fit inwith the area,” said Michael Wight, MaineDOT’s projectmanager. “The expected lifespan of the new bridge and itsinfrastructure is 75 years. This type of bridge could be usedin other locations with similar span length. An extensivepublic process and public outreach was undertaken andMaineDOT is working closely with local town officials togive them a new bridge and ensure the success of the sum-mer tourist season.”

Peter Roody, Hardesty & Hanover’s chief engineer ofbridges and movable structures, started working on thedesign of the new bridge in February 2013.

“Key design challenges included a highly congested worksite, bedrock with no overburden, heavy year round naviga-tion and traffic maintained throughout construction,” he said.“Design innovations included abutments founded onbedrock, constructed without traditional cofferdams; and acable-stayed bascule bridge superstructure and a lightweightorthotropic steel deck. Counterweights are located in thetower masts and below grade to minimize the scale of thestructure. This was a key design requirement established dur-ing meetings with the community. Their input and ideaswere invaluable to the design process.

“The design carefully considered reliability and maintain-ability of the new structure,” he added. “Critical bearings arelocated above the flood plain to ensure reliability. The gird-ers are sealed box elements that are protected by a thermallyapplied paint system called metallizing. This system pro-vides the most durable protection for a steel bridge. Theexisting bridge opens more than 8,000 times per year andmore openings are expected with a mechanically reliablestructure. Gear driven machinery was selected as the mostreliable system to open the bridge.”

When Cianbro crews arrived on site the first goals of con-struction were to build new retaining walls/abutments adja-cent to the bridge, which reduced traffic flow to one lane.Following the winter break, Phase I work resumed until June15 so that it would not impact the summer tourist season.

Vermont Regulators Green Light TDI’s$1.2B Privately-Funded Power Plan

By Wilson RingASSOCIATED PRESS

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) Long-term plans to bringrenewable Canadian electricity to the power-hungry marketsof southern New England got a big boost when Vermont util-ity regulators approved a plan to build a 1,000-megawatttransmission line down Lake Champlain and across the stateto feed the regional power grid, experts say.TDI New England is still awaiting its final federal permits

before it can begin construction and contracts to deliverpower, but the system could become the first piece of a sys-tem to supply renewable electricity to Massachusetts,Connecticut and Rhode Island.Unlike the Northern Pass project proposed for northern

New Hampshire, the $1.2 billion, privately funded TDI proj-ect faced no significant opposition in Vermont, somethingunusual for the state.The difference is the entire TDI project, which would pro-

vide enough power for about 1 million homes, would beinvisible. Almost 100 mi. (161 km) of cable would be laid onthe bottom of Lake Champlain from the Canadian border toBenson, with the remaining 50 mi. (80 km) buried in publicrights of way to Ludlow, where it would connect to the NewEngland power grid.“I think TDI did a stellar job of reaching out to everybody,

all the stakeholders,” said Chris Recchia, the commissionerof the Vermont Department of Public Service, which workson behalf of ratepayers before the state’s utility-regulatingPublic Service Board, who called it a “textbook case of howto do this right.”Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island are looking

for renewable energy as part of a broader effort to reduceelectricity costs and provide reliable sources of power asother aging power plants go offline. There are ample sourcesof Canadian hydro-, wind and solar power, but the mecha-nism to deliver that power through Vermont, NewHampshire and Maine are only now being proposed, withnone under construction as yet.The TDI project is one of four large-scale transmission

projects being discussed in New England, although expertssay more could emerge.To win approval from Vermont regulators, TDI agreed

to fund $720.9 million in payments and benefits over theexpected 40-year life of the project once the line is carry-ing electricity. It includes $263 million for LakeChamplain cleanup projects, almost $109 million forrenewable energy programs and $135.7 million in bene-fits to Vermont electric ratepayers. And those figuresdon’t include construction jobs, or jobs once the line is inoperation.TDI also worked to meet the concerns of officials in the

communities along the line, Recchia and others said.The ease with which the TDI project has won approval in

Vermont is a contrast with the struggle by proponents ofNew Hampshire’s Northern Pass project, a proposed 192-mi.(309 km) transmission line from the Canadian border toDeerfield, which would carry 1,090 megawatts.Backers said it will create jobs and lower costs in a region

that pays the nation’s highest average cost for electricity.Opponents have argued it will hurt property values, tourismand the environment.The New Hampshire project was initially proposed to be

built mostly above ground. Now backers are proposing bury-ing a portion of it but say it would be too expensive to burythe entire line.Jack Savage, a spokesman of the Society for the

Protection of New Hampshire Forests, a vocal critic ofNorthern Pass, which has sued to block it, said that TDI didit right. TDI has been move attentive and responsive to thecommunities that would host the line than has Eversource,the company backing the Northern Pass project.“Arguably, they are far more likely to be building a line

and transmitting energy [than Northern Pass] in the nearfuture as a result,” Savage said.Eversource spokeswoman Lauren Collins said Jan. 8 the

project’s Forward New Hampshire Plan, announced lastsummer, is worth almost $4 billion and is a direct responseto public concerns, including agreeing to bury more of theproject.“The Forest Society is not in a place to gloss over this

effort nor to criticize given its years of well-publicizedattempts to delay the project,” Collins said.

States Throw Cash at MilitaryBases to Keep Them OpenBy Jennifer McDermottAssociAted Press

GrotoN, conn. (AP) states with largemilitary bases are filling what is traditionallythe federal government’s role by picking upthe tab for construction and repairs, sayingthey can’t afford not to.

the number of states willing to spend tax-payer money to fix infrastructure in militaryfacilities, and the scale of the projects, hasincreased steadily in the past five years. stateofficials argue the Pentagon keeps asking forbase closings and they want to protect theirbases and the revenue they bring in.

essentially, states are treating bases likelarge corporations they want to keep withintheir borders, and at least one high-rankingNavy official says it’s a good idea.connecticut has been a leader, setting aside$40 million to improve aging infrastructureat the naval submarine base there, much likeit’s spending hundreds of millions of dollarsto keep companies in connecticut and createjobs.

“We are changing the ways we thinkabout military bases,” said Bob ross, execu-tive director of connecticut’s office ofMilitary Affairs. “these are big commercialenterprises. they are publicly financed, butthere is so much commercial activity thatgoes on at these bases, you have to look atthem the same way you look at a corpora-tion.”

of the nearly two dozen states where themilitary has a major presence, slightly morethan half have spent state money to fix infra-structure on military installations, theAssociation of defense communities hasfound. Most of the spending occurred after2009, when the defense department’s budg-et for military construction began shrinking,said tim Ford, the association’s chief execu-tive officer.

Last year, Massachusetts authorizedspending $177 million on its six bases. citiesare contributing, too: Huntsville, Ala., paidto build houses on an Army post for high-ranking generals.

Most bases are a community’s largestemployer, and in many cases, the largestemployer in a state, Ford said. they infusecapital into an area through salaries, expen-ditures and contracts, creating a vibranteconomy and tax base and helping otherbusiness thrive, he added.

states are throwing their money awaybecause these projects won’t be enough tochange minds in a future round of base clos-ings, said Jerry Hendrix, of the center for a

New American security, a Washington thinktank on national security and defense poli-cies.

“states should spend money investing inthe local community, in health and publicsafety, and what money they don’t needshould return to their people in the form oflower taxes,” said Hendrix, a retired Navycaptain and director of the center’s defensestrategies and Assessments Program.

there also isn’t the political will to closebases now, Hendrix said, so states are spend-ing money to “compete in a competition thathasn’t been declared.”

dennis McGinn, assistant secretary of theNavy for installations, said he would encour-age states to invest in bases to jumpstart proj-ects. Limited military construction funds arebeing prioritized, he added.

“it is a great win-win partnership. there’sbenefit to the state and the local communi-ties. there’s benefit, certainly, to the Unitedstates Navy and the Marine corps wherestates are doing that,” McGinn said in aninterview when he visited the submarinebase in Groton.

connecticut presented McGinn with a$2.2 million offer for two more projects atthe base, and McGinn helped open a newfacility for Navy divers, commonly referredto as a dive locker, another projectconnecticut paid for.

McGinn said he thinks connecticut’sspending will “absolutely” better positionthe base if there’s another round of base clos-ings. the base was nearly shuttered duringthe 2005 round, largely because of its aginginfrastructure.

“the number 1 criterion for maintaining abase, instead of closing it or realigning it, ismilitary value,” McGinn said. “And the mil-itary value of the naval submarine base isenhanced by having, in this particular case, adive locker.”

While congress has denied the defensedepartment’s recent requests for base clos-ings, many say more are inevitable. to pre-pare, Massachusetts is reducing energy costsat its bases to make them more valuable.

rhode island copied connecticut’sapproach and passed legislation in 2014 toinvest in Naval station Newport but hasn’tspent money yet. state sen. Louis diPalmasaid rhode island values the economicimpact but is balancing competing fundingpriorities.

Officials Remain Hopeful for Summer Bridge CompletionPhase II work started on Sept. 14 and with

the closure of the channel, traffic was rerout-ed onto a temporary bridge placed east of thecurrent one. The goal is to have the newbridge open to traffic in May, while workcontinues on the approaches and minor ele-ments.

“During the 213 day channel closure,”noted the project Web page, “Cianbro willhave two 8-hour shifts working each dayMonday through Friday. Each shift will beworking around low tide. Cianbro does notplan to work weekends, however, weekendwork may be needed depending uponweather and other factors. After that time,work will continue, including constructingthe approaches, dirt work, paving, etc. Thecontract completion date is Nov. 15, 2016,though MaineDOT is optimistic that it willbe completed during the summer months.”

Although this project is smaller comparedto some of the bigger projects taking place inMaine, it is still a challenging one.

“Discussions with town officials,Cianbro, the U.S. Coast Guard and localfishermen were all part of the process todevelop a construction schedule for the proj-ect,” said Wight. The in-water work window

restrictions based on input frommultiple environmental agenciesare key to the construction sched-ule. Movable bridges in suchtight settings are very rare.Cianbro did a significant amountof planning to prepare for work-ing in such a tight site. Closingthe bridge down to boat/vehicu-lar traffic, along with using atemporary bridge, was key toproviding space for the contrac-tor to work. The crane beingused on the project had to be par-tially assembled off site due tothe lack of space.

“Good weather and having nosurprises will help keep the proj-ect on schedule,” he added.“Good planning also is veryimportant. Open communicationand getting quick decisions isessential during this phase of the project toget the bridge open on time. Having to workthe tides makes for some long days for thecontractor’s crew. There have been no majorsurprises yet. Partnering is being used on thisproject. With partnering, we make decisionsas quickly as possible with the team workingon the site.”

The new bridge will require 934 cu. yds.(714 cu m) of concrete, 106 tons (96 t) ofsteel and 287 tons (260 t) of asphalt.

In addition to Maverick, other subcon-tractors include Maine Drilling andBlasting for the rock anchors, andPlummer Excavation is providing fill. Atpeak construction Cianbro will have about

20 workers on site.Wright noted that the traffic

management plan is working,with an emphasis on ensuringthat the construction workerscan work safely.

“The traffic is flowing well forthe most part,” he said. “A verysmall number of vehicles arerunning the red light and speed-ing. MaineDOT encourages alldrivers to obey the speed limitand obey all traffic signs and sig-nals.”

“This is a definitive team proj-ect and is providing opportuni-ties for our newer employees togain experience on smaller ruralprojects,” he said. “Mentoring isvery important at MaineDOTand is vital to help new employ-ees develop. Public involvement

is critical on projects of this type. It also isvery important for MaineDOT to workclosely with contractors on projects withvery tight schedules.”

Contractor Champions ‘Made in America’ By Jeff WinkeCEG CORRESPONDENT

In a sense, Mike Musto is the Captain America of theasphalt paving industry. Both Musto and Captain Americaare avowed patriots. And both work for the betterment of theAmerican way of life.Captain America was born into existence when he was

published by Marvel Comics and appeared in the first issuea full year before the Pearl Harbor attack. During that pre-WWII year, Captain America was not shy about expressingoutrage over what was occurring in Europe and Japan. In onepanel scene, Captain America punches Adolph Hitler in thenose.Mike Musto is the founder and CEO of U.S. Pavement

Services Inc., Woburn, Mass. In 2012 he made the commit-ment that Captain America would be proud of…he vowedthat his company would buy only American-made products,equipment, goods and services. It took his company severalmonths to create a list of everything made in America. Incases where products, services, or supplies they had beenbuying all along were not American made they sought outcomparable options that are.“The cost may be slightly higher in some cases to buy

American-made, but the bottom line is we’re looking to putmore Americans to work and to help in any way to do that,”Musto stated. “We took our list that we assembled and pub-lished it as the ‘Pavement Contractor’s Guide to BuyingAmerican’ and have made it available to any paving con-tractor as part of a ‘Made in America’ campaign we’re spear-

heading.”Musto believes his company’s commitment to buy only

American-made goods was a first for the pavement industry.The “Made in America” campaign was unveiled at a pavingtrade show in early 2012. “The energy and excitement in the room was phenomenal

among the crowd of numerous pavement contractors,” saidMusto. “We are confident this program will help put moreAmericans to work and help make the United States morecompetitive.”U.S. Pavement Services’ “Pavement Contractor’s Guide

to Buying American” is designed to include everything apaving contractor purchases from sealants, liquid tacks andprimers, paving fabrics to office supplies including binders,paper clips, staplers, garbage bags, and pencils to heavyequipment. “We recently purchased a new milling machine — a

Roadtec cold planer,” Musto said. “Roadtec invited us totheir Chattanooga, headquarters and factory so we could seehow the equipment is made. It felt good to see Americanworkers in an American company’s factory located in theheart of America making a machine that, in our case, will beused on American projects. It can’t get any better than that!”To get a free, downloadable pdf copy of the “Pavement

Contractors’ Guide to Buying American,” visithttp://uspavement.com/pdfs/Pavement-Contractors-Guide-to-Buying-American.pdf.
