The reconstruction of the Ashton Damwas a unique project in the history ofPacifiCorp, which operates as RockyMountain Power in Idaho, Utah andWyoming. The project required historicalresearch into the original construction of thenearly 100-year-old dam, careful construc-tion techniques and a three-year phasedconstruction schedule.The utility worked with federal and state

officials and interested stakeholders for anumber of years on this project. Detailedplanning and coordination with numerousgroups was required to meet the needs ofstate and federal water quality require-ments, farmers who use the Ashton reser-voir for irrigation and sport fishing groupsconcerned about the impact of the projecton a world-famous fishing area.“We extend our special thanks to the

The unemployment rate for construction workers fellbelow double digits in June for the first time since 2008as every segment of the industry added employees,according to an analysis of new government data by theAssociated General Contractors of America.Association officials said the relatively positive jobsreport for the sector highlights the need to addresspotential shortages of skilled and entry-level workers.“Construction employment in June was the highest

since August 2009,” said Ken Simonson, the associa-tion's chief economist. “But employment is still downby one-quarter from the peak more than seven yearsago. Many of those laid-off workers have left the indus-try — whether for employment elsewhere, more educa-tion or retirement — and construction companies face alooming worker shortage.”

Jobless Rate FallBelow 10 Percent

Case Construction Equipment launched Case SiteWatch,its telematics, remote monitoring and data reporting solutionthat provides customers with actionable information to helpmanage their fleets and optimize machine performance.

Using a control module that integrates with the machine,SiteWatch sends real-time data to a user Web portal accessi-ble from nearly anywhere in the world. An intuitive interfaceallows customers and dealers to review and analyze up to 18months worth of information. SiteWatch experts at each Casedealership are on hand to consult with customers and providetailored assistance, from setup to detailed data analysis.

“We developed SiteWatch to empower our customers,especially small- to mid-size operations that may not be as

familiar with the technology,” said Jim Hasler, vice president,Case Construction-North America.

For example, currently Case is the only OEM with a dedi-cated telematics customer call center.

“Knowledge is power,” said Hasler. “SiteWatch providescritical data that our customers and their dealers can analyzeto maximize machine utilization. SiteWatch empowers ourcustomers to increase productivity, efficiency, and ultimately,profitability.”

SiteWatch proactively keeps users and their dealersinformed with performance metrics, idle-time analytics,scheduled maintenance intervals, machine health reportingand programmable security alerts. This information allows

customers and dealers to identify machine performancetrends, operator efficiencies and training requirements.

“We look at SiteWatch as an essential business tool fortoday’s operations,” said Brad Stemper, solutions marketingmanager, Case Construction. “SiteWatch comes pre-pro-grammed to monitor up to 12 parameters, many of which arecustomizable, so the output can be as simple or comprehen-sive as our customers need, and this information allows themto make immediate decisions to improve costs, lower fuelconsumption and complete scheduled maintenance.SiteWatch also can tell customers which machines are readyfor deployment, allowing them to maximize productivity andfleet utilization.”

According to Stemper, another key business purpose forSiteWatch is accurate, fast job costing. Rather than spendingtime calling operators to get machine hours, SiteWatch keepstrack of machine usage and run-time on a daily or monthlybasis. Customers can quickly pull up a detailed, precise pic-ture of their fleets’ capabilities, and potentially offset rentalcost.

SiteWatch also can help conserve fuel and battery lifethrough various power management settings including hiber-nate, sleep and standby modes. It can protect a customer’sfleet in a number of ways including curfew, geofencing andmotion detection even when the machine is turned off. If amachine does leave the premises, SiteWatch aids in trackingand recovery, helping to significantly reduce theft-relatedcosts.

Customers can choose between a basic and advancedSiteWatch subscription, depending on how much informationis needed and how often.

SiteWatch currently is standard equipment on the F Serieswheel loaders, and includes a standard three-year advancedsubscription plan. Case will continue to roll out SiteWatch asstandard equipment on select heavy machines throughout2013. It’s also available as a factory option on select machinesor as a dealer-installed accessory on virtually any self-pow-ered piece of equipment.

By Lori LovelyCEG CORRESPONDENT

During the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake,a 50-ft. (15 m) section of the upper deck onthe eastern span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge east of Yerba BuenaIsland collapsed. An interim retrofit was per-formed to shore up the bridge while the stategovernment made the decision whether todo a complete retrofit or build a new bridge.Analysis determined that the damage

could have been much worse, in partbecause of poor soil conditions under theeastern end of the bridge. Because the bridgesits between two fault lines — the SanAndreas and the Hayward — and is vulner-able to a major event, and because the ArmyCorps of Engineers warned that a retrofitwould require extensive ongoing mainte-nance, it was determined to build an all-newbridge north of the original structure.

Earth-Shaking DesignSeveral alternatives were considered, but

the Engineering and Design Advisory Panelof the Metropolitan TransportationCommission ultimately chose a design byCaltrans and T.Y. Lin International.The rising cost of materials — particular-

ly steel and concrete — contributed to thehigh price tag. “Upward revisions in theearly days of planning contributed to raisingthe cost,” said John Goodwin, public infor-mation officer with the MetropolitanTransportation Commission in Oakland.Insurance costs became increasingly priceyas well. In addition, because the primarystructure of the signature self-anchored spancannot be self-supporting until complete, itrequired the building of a temporary bridgeto support the final span, adding to costs.The project, which is the largest public

works project in California to date, has aforecast budget of $6.4 billion. The primarysource of funding is tolls on state-owned tollbridges in the Bay area, with 60 percent offunds coming from tolls, 5 percent ($323million) from federal funds and the rest fromstate funds. “The onus is on tolls,” Goodwinsaid, noting that California implemented a

toll increase in 1998 and again in 2007.The new east span will feature a pair of

side-by-side, five-lane concrete viaducts thatconnect to a single-towered, self-anchoredsuspension span. A transition structure linksthe SAS to the existing double-deck tunnel. “The tunnel has no additional capacity,”

Goodwin said, “so we can’t create a biggerbridge.” However, full-size shoulders will be

(added on each side, as well as a bike/pedes-trian path — and when completed, it will bethe largest bridge of this type.The project is so big it is divided into 16

major contracts and four major sections: theYerba Buena Island Transition Structure(YBITS), the all-steel self-anchored suspen-sion (SAS bridge), the Skyway and theOakland Touchdown. Prime contractor on

the SAS project is ABF, a joint venturebetween Pennsylvania-based AmericanBridge Co. and Fluor Corporation of Irving,Texas.Innovative energy-absorbing techniques

were incorporated for state-of-the-art safety,according to Goodwin. The steel and con-crete replacement span is engineered towithstand ground motion forecasts over a1500-year period and is expected to last atleast 150 years with proper maintenance.Designed to absorb energy, sections moveindependently with critical componentsdesigned to deform so they can be removedand replaced if necessary. Due to 20 hingepipe beams and sacrificial tubular end keys,the flexible structure should be able to sur-vive a Maximum creditable earthquake, esti-mated at 8.5 moment magnitude.The tower consists of four columns joined

horizontally by sacrificial box structures,known as shear link beams, designed toabsorb earthquake-induced motion that willallow the tower to sway without incident.To build the tower, columns were lifted

and bolted into place before being toppedwith a cap that carries the cable saddle. Afterbeing floated in from China, the columnswere lifted onto a temporary scaffold forplacement. A second set of columns waserected by a gantry on top of the scaffold andplaced over the first four columns, to whichthey were bolted. An even larger crane liftedthis set into place over the previous set. Thefinal set of columns was set in 2011, extend-ing the height of the tower to 480 ft. (146 m).Once the cable saddle was placed, the towerwas complete, at a final height of 525 ft. (160m).

Spanning the BayMoving east to west from Oakland to San

Francisco, the bridge begins with theOakland Touchdown, an elevated road thatleads from the shore to the skyway, curvingto align with the existing ground-levelapproach road.Next is the longest section of the new

bridge, the 1.2-mi. (1.9 km) Skyway.Sweeping parallel decks arc out over the bay,

Span Expected to Last 150 Years With Proper Maintenanceproviding both a stunning viewand a graceful image. It is com-posed of 452 pre-cast concrete seg-ments that stand three stories high,90 ft. (27 m) wide and 25 ft. (6.6m) long. The deck surface is paved with

durable, weather-resistant high-strength polyester concrete fabri-cated in Stockton and transportedby barge. The largest segments oftheir kind ever cast, they were lift-ed into place by custom-madewinches. Similarly, two of theheaviest lifts in California historyplaced the two 2,000-ton (1,814 t)steel transition segments on thewestern end. These segments willconnect the Skyway with the SAS. Fourteen sets of piers ranging in

height from 45 to 115 ft. (14 to 35m) support the Skyway sections.They were constructed of 160rebar and concrete-filled steel piles8.5 ft. (2.6 m) in diameter. Thepiles were welded into pile capsunderneath the columns and weredriven as deep as 300 ft. (91 m) toanchor in stable soils. Prime con-tractor Kiewit/FCI/Manson — ajoint venture — completed con-struction in 2008. The main SAS span is not only

unusual for being rarely built, butalso unique because of its singletower and asymmetrical design. Atwo-tower cable-stayed designwould require deep footings inbedrock and a conventional two-tower suspension bridge wouldrequire a massive anchor to bebuilt in deep bay mud.The tower east of the island is on

bedrock, Goodwin said. However,because the soil conditions underthe eastern end of the bridge pro-hibit setting the Skyway pilings inbedrock, they are set in the firmarchaic mud found below the softmuds deposited by distant placermining in the late 19th century.Large-diameter tubular piles weredriven inside cofferdams at anglesto form a splayed footing. Next, areinforced concrete pad waspoured at the bottom of the coffer-dam to create a footing for the col-umn.Anchored into the bridge super-

structure on the east side of theSAS, the single cable rises to thetower and then descends to wraparound the west side of the SASbefore climbing to the top of thetower again and then descending

back to the eastanchorage to formthe main cable. Theshorter western sideof the SAS is pulleddown against theforces imposed bythe longer easternspan. To avoid upliftin the supportingcolumns, the span isterminated with amassive concreteend weight that car-ries the turning sad-dles for the maincables. The unique design

of the SAS posed alot of challenges and introduced alot of expense, Goodwin said. Thetower and orthotropic box girderswere fabricated by ZPMC inShanghai and shipped in. To liftthem into place required deploy-ment of a specially built shear-legbarge — the largest of its kind onthe west coast. The Left CoastLifter is a giant barge crane thatwas used to place the 28 main deckbox structures. Building, outfittingand transporting it added about $50million to the project costs,Goodwin said.The western-most section of the

new east span is the 1,542-ft. (470m)-long Yerba Buena IslandTransition Structure, which linksthe SAS with the island. MCMConstruction is the prime on thissection.

TimelineConstruction to replace the east-

ern span of the bridge began in2002. Because of the way thebridge ties in to the tunnel on theisland with a curved double-decktruss causeway, temporary bridgestructures were erected in 2009.The targeted completion date is

Sept. 3, 2013, but Goodwin saidthere is uncertainty about it. “Theengineering challenges have beenmet and the load transfer is com-plete, but in March we encountereda problem with high-strength steelanchoring rod.”The steel anchoring rods that

secure the seismic safety compo-nents had been in place since 2008,but not tensioned because the 9 to17 ft. long (2.7 to 5.2 m) boltsunder the bridge deck couldn’t betightened until the load was trans-ferred from the temporary supportsto the cable system. When it was,

one third of the 96 anchor rods thatsecure the sheer keys failed. “Aninvestigation indicates the failure isdue to hydrogen embrittlement,”Goodwin said. “The steel provedto be too hard, but not toughenough.” He said that galvanizing the rods

to prevent rust may have con-tributed to the problem. Tests on192 similar rods used to secureother shear keys and seismic bear-ings have different results.Although made of the same gradeof steel, the rods manufactured in2010 are of a more consistentmaterial.“We must engineer and fabricate

a substitute to retrofit the systemfor securing shear keys to 1 and 2to the pier cap,” Goodwin contin-ued. Because they can’t beremoved, new steel saddle systemswith the same clamping power willhave to be added — at a cost of upto $10 million. “Another concernis stress corrosion cracking and theToll Bridge Program OversightCommittee is now investigatingthe long-term integrity of morethan 2,000 high-strength steel fas-teners used at 17 different locationson the SAS project.”It’s simply the most recent chal-

lenge that has plagued this project.Although weather hasn’t causedany delays, there have been plentydue to design, politics and costover-runs. A two-year delay andseveral hundred millions of dollarsin additional costs was attributed toan alignment controversy that ledthe U.S. Navy to restrict access tothe soil engineers.In 2005 the FBI investigated

charges by former welders andinspectors regarding allegations ofdefective welds, many of which

were embedded in concrete under-water. Tests by three independentcontractors indicated that the weldseither met or exceeded specifica-tions. In November 2011 there was

concern about the potential of falsi-fied inspection reports, particularlyin regards to foundation testingpractices. A report from a panel ofindependent experts in March2012 confirmed the integrity of thetower foundation.

Challenge AcceptedWelding was difficult. “The

superstructure is composed of 28separate orthotropic box girders(14 in each direction),” Goodwinexplained. “Those at the easternend contain the anchoring systemcontain 137 separate cablestrands.”Workmanship was a challenge

complicated by difficult access,which subsequently added to thecost and the timeline. “Minimizingdisruption was a huge challengewhen you’re working on a bridgethat sees 250,000 vehicles a day,”Goodwin said.Total closures were kept to a

minimum: Labor Day 2007 and

2009 to move out sections of theold bridge and President’s Day2012 to realign the eastern end ofthe original 1936 east span. Thefinal closure will occur just prior toopening to reconfigure.Material challenges were also

challenges will soon be behindthem, Goodwin looks forward toan on-target completion. The SAStower was completed in 2011 andthe entire SAS superstructure wasfinished by summer 2012. Loadtransfer was completed on Nov.20, 2012, officially making the2,047-ft. (624 m) span the largestself-anchored suspension bridge inthe world. The entire roadway of the bridge

is now largely complete. Thebridge is now self-supporting sotemporary scaffolding is beingremoved. All that’s left is paving,painting, a lot of punch-list itemsand resolution of the problemswith the high-strength steel rods.

JCB 417, 411 Wheel Loaders to BenefitFrom Fuel-Saving Ecomax Engine

JCB has launched two new compact wheel loaders — the411 and 417. The machines will be powered by the highly-efficient, low-emission JCB Ecomax diesel engine, deliver-ing lower fuel consumption, less noise and greater produc-tivity. The two machines, which share the same chassis andcab structures, will use the EPA Tier IV Interim (TierIVi)standard 4.4-L Ecomax engine offering 125 hp (93 kW) inthe 417 and 91 hp (68 kW) in the 411.Features of the new machines include: • Low-emission Ecomax diesel engines • Larger operator’s cab with improved ergonomics• New high-lift arm option on the 417 for increased versa-

tility• Improved lift capacity • Clutch disconnect on service brake pedal for lower fuel

consumption

Next Generation Wheeled LoadersThe 417 (which replaces the previous 416) and the revised

411 adopt the new generation appearance, with a new single-piece hood for service access and visibility. Other improve-ments include a completely redesigned cab with a new full-color LCD monitor and an intuitive menu system that pro-vides a wide range of real-time information for the operator.Fuel consumption and cycle time data can be displayed,

allowing operators to adapt their driving style to optimizemachine productivity and efficiency. The cab benefits fromreduced noise levels, and for the first time on machines ofthis size, JCB will offer full climate control air conditioningas an option.

Ecomax Low-Emission PerformanceThe 417 will use a 125 hp version of JCB’s Ecomax Tier

IV Interim engine. This drives through a ZF four-speed

transmission to JCB axles front and rear, with a transmissiondisconnect feature incorporated into the service brake pedaldelivering further fuel-saving benefits. The engine gains 15percent greater fuel efficiency compared with the previousDieselmax engine without any loss of digging and loadingperformance, lowering operating costs for customers. The411 also will benefit from improved fuel efficiency with the91 hp version of JCB’s Ecomax Tier IVi engine. The most significant customer benefit is the fact that the

Ecomax engine achieves Tier IVi requirements without theneed for any form of exhaust after-treatment. There is noneed for a costly diesel particulate filter (DPF), diesel oxida-tion catalyst (DOC) or exhaust fluid or selective catalyticreduction (SCR). This allows JCB to install the Tier IViengine in a compact loader design with no negative effect onvisibility from the cab and no requirement for larger coolingpacks or expensive additional maintenance.Operating weights have been increased slightly to 21,100

lbs. (9,571 kg) for the 417 and 18,000 lbs. (8,164 kg) for the411 to cope with increased digging forces and lifting per-formance. The 417 will be available with a high-lift-armloader configuration, joining the existing standard and super-high-lift arms available on the previous machine and on the411. This third loader arm option offers a pin height of 12.5-ft. (3.8 m) with a dump height of 9.6-ft. (2.9 m), comparedwith the standard lift arm pin height of 12-ft. (3.6 m) and thedump height of 9-ft. (2.7 m) when equipped with a 2.1 cu.yds. (1.6 cu m) bucket. The 411 is available with both standard and super-high-lift

loader configurations, with the standard arms offering a pinheight of 11.4-ft. (3.5 m) and a dump height of 8.4-ft. (2.5 m)when using a 1.5 cu. yds. (1.2 cu m) bucket.

Terex TL120 Offers Higher Production, Lower EmissionsThe latest Terex TL120 compact wheel

loader comes with far more than just a morepowerful Tier IV interim 4-cylinder turbodiesel engine with intercooler; it has a newTerex smart control operating system, aquieter cab offering a better view to theground for the operator and a new coolingsystem.The 101 hp (75.3 kW) Tier IVi Deutz

engine provides the 16,653-lb. (7,553 kg)operating weight TL120 with approximately16 percent more power and 90 percent lowerexhaust emissions than its predecessor,according to the manufacturer. Further efficiency gains come from the

new operating concept, which makes itmuch easier for the operator to configure themachine precisely to an application. Similarto menu guides on smart phones, operatingthe Terex smart control is very intuitive.Within the cab a new dashboard display pro-vides a better at-a-glance of machine opera-tion information, while the multi-functionjoystick comes with an electro-proportionalcontrol circuit and a slow/fast key for precisehandling. The keypad has extra-large keysfor easy operation and all the fuses andrelays are now mounted inside the cab foradditional protection. Noise levels in the two-door cab have

been cut from 76dB(A) to 71dB(A). Thelock switch for the quick-attach system ismounted by the steering column and the TierIVi TL120 provides the operator with anenhanced view of the attachment couplingprocess.

A new Tier IVi engine cooling systemuses a hydraulically operated and tempera-ture-controlled fan, which starts automatical-ly when required to help reduce fuel con-sumption. Using parasitic reduction, thehydraulically driven fan can be adjusted

down to compensate for cool climates. Areverse function is available for machinesworking in dusty environments to pushdebris from the radiator in turn reducingservice and associated downtime. The com-bination of the new cooling package and therevised rear hood cuts exterior noise levelsfrom 102dB(A) to 99dB(A) — effectivelyreducing noise pollution and making the TierIVi TL120 ideal for use in urban areas orsites with strict decibel-level requirements.Other changes include a three-part coun-

terweight, which provides easier serviceaccess to the engine, the battery isolator isnow adjacent to the cab, and beneath theredesigned engine hood are new jump startterminals. A revised steering system reducesthe effort needed to turn the wheel whileretaining its 15-ft. 4-in. (4.7 m) turningradius. Other features carried over from the pre-

vious model are the 1.57 to 2.35 cu. yds. (1.2to 1.8 cu m) bucket capacity, parallel kine-matics, self-locking differentials and anoscillating rear axle.For more information, visit

The JRB multi-pick-up coupler by Paladin Attachmentswas designed specifically to pick up and work with attach-ments such as JRB 416, JRB ISO, John Deere 416, JohnDeere Hi-Viz, Volvo, JCB and other ISO attachments infront end wheel loader applications. This design providesquick coupling capabilities that allow you to safely switchattachments in the shortest amount of time.For versatility, the JRB multi-pick-up coupler utilizes a 2-

cylinder design that accommodates any number of “quickhitch” style attachments. In a matter of seconds, an operatorcan switch from a bucket to a boom, forklift, broom or otherattachment without leaving the cab or requiring the assis-tance of additional personnel. This means more productivi-ty, less downtime and greater job efficiency, which translatesto improved profitability.The JRB multi-pick-up coupler is designed to maximize

load transfer and help maintain machine performance. Thislower offset improves performance and breakout force,according to the manufacturer.The coupler incorporates a lock-out feature that prevents

the cylinders from retracting without operator intervention.As with all of its couplers and attachments, PaladinConstruction Group provides safety information and trainingfor all operators as well as other work-site personnel. Dailyinspection before operation is always a safety recommenda-tion.For more information, call 800/428-2538 or visit

PacifiCorp Provides All Funding for $25 Million Projectand understanding during thecourse of this project. We are alsograteful for the work of state andfederal agencies, sport fishermenand the Henry’s Fork Foundation,who assisted us with the planningand execution of the reconstruc-tion. It has been a very productivepartnership.”The project was closely coordi-

nated with environmental, federal,state regulatory and permittingagencies who have authority overhydroelectric projects. Extensiveconsultation and planning for thesafety of workers and the public —as well as water quality and fisheryconsiderations — have been a pri-ority in this process.The project featured extensive

preparatory steps, including explo-rations and design that began in2003. Jack Kolkman, hydro opera-tions manager, said a number ofalternatives for dam reconstructionwere considered. The companysought the least disruptive optionsfor water quality and considerationfor those who use the reservoir foragriculture and recreation.The company decided that com-

plete restoration was the bestoption, rather than lesser measuresthat might have solved the prob-lems of the aging structure, butwere less-certain. Permitting forthe project began in 2007.PacifiCorp worked with the

Federal Energy RegulatoryCommission and the IdahoDepartment of Water ResourcesDam Safety since 2004 to evaluatethe structural conditions of the damand determine scope of workrequired to upgrade the structure tomodern standards. The utility consulted with quali-

fied structural engineers and engi-neering geologists, all with exten-sive experience with the designand construction of embankmentdams like Ashton. The construc-tion method chosen was an indus-try standard, but because of the ageof the dam, its interior structurewas not completely known. Thisrequired a series of core samples tobe taken to determine the materialsand conditions in the interior of thedam.The level of the reservoir was

carefully managed during the eval-uation and construction process.Residents near the area and farm-ers who use the reservoir for irriga-tion were contacted directly toinform them in advance when thereservoir was lowered or raised to

allow for evaluation and construc-tion activities to proceed.The first step was construction

of a diversion tunnel around thedam beginning in July 2010. Thisprovided a way to redirect, yetmaintain stream flow and allow thedam reconstruction to proceed.Preparation continued in 2011 andearly 2012 with connection of thetunnel to the reservoir and con-struction of cofferdams bothdownstream and upstream of thedam to allow the work to proceed. In January, March and April of

2012, replacement and repair ofconcrete supporting structures wascompleted on the downstream sideof the power house. Continuingwork through summer and fall of2012 included excavation andreconstruction of the earthen androck-fill portion of the dam on theupstream side and replacement ofthe dam’s concrete crest.“This has been a career project

for me; and I’ve been here 30years. There has been nothing real-ly like it in my experience,” JackKolkman, director of hydro plantoperations for PacifiCorp Energy,said.To completely rebuild Ashton

Dam has been extremely challeng-ing, but also fascinating andrewarding, according to RogerRaeburn, environmental managerfor PacifiCorp Energy. “This kind of work had no mod-

ern precedent at PacifiCorp. Afterall, there are no new dams beingconstructed. The coordination thatwas required among state and fed-eral agencies, property owners,farmers and recreational users wasextensive. We are grateful for thecooperation and input of theseorganizations, which greatly con-tributed to the project’s success.”Project cost is approximately

$25 million. PacifiCorp providedall funding.A number of contractors and

consultants were involved in theproject.W. W. Clyde & Company of

Springville, Utah, was the princi-pal contractor for constructionservices. URS Corporation, head-quartered in San Francisco, Calif.,served as project engineer, design-er, and construction manager,while Cirrus Ecological Solutions,LC, of Logan, Utah, was principalenvironmental consultant for sedi-ment, water quality, and spawninggravel assessments.Historic and cultural resources

consultant SWCA, Inc, based in

Phoenix, Ariz., also participated inthe job, as did CornforthConsultants, Inc., of Portland, Ore.,which handled ongoing daminstrumentation data collection andreporting. Bear River Electric ofSan Mateo, Calif., was responsiblefor installation of the instrumenta-tion.The first major challenge was

evaluating the condition of the damand evaluating all options, accord-ing to Kolkman. When reconstruc-tion was selected as the most pru-dent option for the utility’s cus-tomers, a detailed evaluation wasconducted, including core samplesto determine the internal condi-tions of the dam.The level of the reservoir need-

ed to be coordinated with the needsof farmers who use the water forirrigation and the requirements ofthe reconstruction project. Adetailed schedule of reservoir levelchanges was developed and sharedwith stakeholders to accommodateboth the needs of agriculture andthe construction project.During the construction phases

it was necessary to relocate fish aswater was diverted from areas nearthe dam during the work. Thiswork was accomplished in cooper-ation with the Idaho Department ofFish and Game using specializedequipment to stun the fish withelectric shocks, net them and relo-cate them unharmed outside thework area.Three relocation efforts were

needed and were judged highlysuccessful. One of the largest con-cerns of residents and recreationalusers in the area was about poten-tial negative impact of sedimentthat might be introduced duringreconstruction. Both state agencies and fishing

enthusiasts were wary because of

sediment problems that occurred in1992 with work on the Island ParkDam, upstream of Ashton.PacifiCorp project managers con-ducted and participated in manyextra meetings to explain all theywere doing to control sedimentinto the river and minimize envi-ronmental impacts of the recon-struction. The results were impres-sive, even to skeptics.“I’m pretty happy with the way

things have turned out,” said DanGarren, Fish and Game’s fisheriesmanager in the Upper SnakeRegion.“They avoided a large-scale sed-

iment event and, when you thinkabout the scope of the project upthere, that’s pretty amazing.”Garren believes the power utili-

ty’s communication and outreachto anglers was “awesome.PacifiCorp listened and I reallythink they stepped up their efforts,”Garren said. Brandon Hoffner, executive

director of the Henry’s ForkFoundation, said the utility wasgreat to work with.“They have been very respon-

sive to our concerns,” he said. “Weare very happy with the fact theywere able to get the project donewith what looks like minimaleffects to the river.”The project involved a large

selection of equipment. The fleet atwork included:• Caterpillar articulating 730 and

740 dump trucks (with and withoutejector), used to transport existingdam material waste and importnew material.• Caterpillar 375, 330BL,

330CL, 325C, 345B, and 304Dtrackhoes, which handled damexcavation, material placement,and loading trucks with new dammaterial.

• Caterpillar 623F paddle-wheelscraper, used for new core materialexcavation.• Putzmeister Telescopic TB 130

belt conveyor, which carried outmaterial placement in the reservoir,new embankment filter, and mate-rial placement.• Caterpillar TH-6 and TH-560B

telehandlers, utilized for miscella-neous site work.• Caterpillar 988B and 950G

front end loaders, for materialloading and stockpiling.• Grove RT855B and 890E

cranes, used for concrete place-ment and formwork, scaffoldingconstruction, and material place-ment in otherwise unreachablelocations.Employee staffing was between

25 and 75 depending on the natureof construction activity.Subcontractors and consultants

employed by principal contractorW. W. Clyde & Company includedCDM-Smith, of Cambridge,Mass., subconsultant for the Phase2 cofferdam and dewateringdesign. Butte, Mont.-basedO'Keefe Drilling Company, con-structed the upstream dewateringwells, and Portadam, Inc., head-quartered in Williamstown, N.J.,served as supplier and constructorof the downstream cofferdam.Other W. W. Clyde & Companysubcontractors included Rain-for-Rent (dewatering) and A-Core,Inc. (concrete demolition), both ofIdaho Falls, Idaho, IndependentDrilling, based in Blackfoot, Idaho(downstream dewatering wells),Swiss Precision of Ashton, Idaho(labor and fencing), Harris Rebar(rebar supplier and installer), andNicholson Construction (drillingand grouting for left-abutmentgrout curtain) both headquarteredin Salt Lake City, Utah, as well asWalters Ready Mix, of Rexburg,Idaho (concrete supplier), SuperiorBlasting, Inc. based in Nampa,Idaho (blasting), and PotableDivers, Inc, in Vernal, Utah (cof-ferdam inspection).URS Corporation also engaged

subcontractors for the project.Materials, Testing, and Inspection(MTI), based in Ontario, Ore., han-dled third-party quality controltesting for them, while third-partyquality control laboratoryTerraSense, LLC, located inTotowa, N.J., was responsible forselect soil testing.

Cashman Features NewProduct Line at Elko Expo

As a primary sponsor of the June ElkoMine Expo for the sixth consecutive year,Cashman Equipment celebrated both themining industry and its continued growth onJune 28 in Las Vegas. This year, the 82-yearold company focused on the new legacyBucyrus product line and technologydemonstrations.

After becoming a legacy Bucyrus dealerearlier this year, Cashman prominently fea-tured the new Cat-branded hydraulic shov-els, electric rope shovels, and drills. Thecompany’s 60 ft. (18 m) tent at the mainentrance of the Mine Expo featured a widerange of Cat products and was staffed withknowledgeable sales representatives whoanswered questions and provided productdemonstrations.

Mine Expo attendees enjoyed interactivedisplays and also were excited to see a rare 2ft. (.6 in.) machine replica of the 7495Electric Rope Shovel. In fact, there weremore than 10 requests to purchase the repli-ca model by Caterpillar enthusiasts.

“This is an important addition to our offer-

ings,” said Chris Wolford, Elko sales man-ager. “Caterpillar’s acquisition of Bucyrus in2011 and the resulting integration intoCashman’s operations means we’re nowproviding our mining customers the broadestproduct line in the mining industry.”

With more than 6,000 Elko Mine Expoattendees gathered for the show, Cashmanand the Elko Convention and VisitorsAuthority hosted a kickoff reception at theFlying Fish in downtown Elko.

Approximately 400 people began theirExpo experience with this revitalized event,which focused on industry networking ratherthan a formal speaker as in previous years.

In addition, 800 people also visitedCashman’s event booths at the ElkoConvention Center where they featured CatUnderground loaders, wheel loaders, back-hoes, vocational trucks, engines, generators,and skid steers, as well as a motorgrader sim-ulator, a Cat Global Mining Touchpointlearning center, and Cat gear merchandise.


The Wirtgen W 210i and W 200icold mills — introduced in 2013— offer the same advanced-designcold-milling performance as theirestablished W 210 and W 200predecessors, but are compliantwith U.S. Tier IVi emissionsrequirements.Like their predecessors, the W

210i and W 200i feature a standardmilling width of 79 in. (200 cm),but can be fitted with optional 59in. (150 cm) or 87 in. (221 cm) cut-ting units. Three selectable enginespeeds enable a broad range ofapplications, such as large-scalesurface course rehabilitation, com-plete pavement removal at fulldepth, and fine milling, and have amilling depth of 0 to 13 in. (0 to 33cm).The W 200i is powered by a sin-

gle engine generating 535 hp. Its

operating weight is59,922 lbs. (27,180kg) with half-fullwater tank, half-fullfuel tank, a 165-lb.driver, and tools.The W 210i has

nearly all of the samefeatures as the W 200i,except for addedpower in cutting appli-cations, features afuel-saving drive con-cept utilizing twodiesel engines, generating a total680 hp with both engines engaged.Its operating weight is 63,670 lb.(28,880 kg).The W 200i and same-sized, but

more powerful W 210i incorporatea number of new technologies forcold mills that are exclusive toWirtgen Group.

Their parallel-to-surface (PTS)technology automatically keepsthe cutter housing level as the W200 and W 210 move into a cut,accelerating production, and their“smart” WIDRIVE technologyoffers new microprocessor-con-trolled enhancements to machinecontrol systems, tying all main

functions to a singlesource to manage fuelcosts, tooth costs andother variables.Their intelligent

speed control systemincorporates an elec-tronic flow dividerthat makes the fourtracks work in harmo-ny when turning aradius. Skipping andnotching are eliminat-ed, track wear is min-

imized, and the machine operatessmoother. They incorporate thelevel pro system, Wirtgen’s exist-ing automatic leveling system,which is highly user-friendly andregulates the pre-set milling depthand actual readout electronically.Asphalt and concrete milling is

one of the most abrasive environ-

ments for any machine, but theirnew vacuum cutting system optionwill remove dust, fines and smokefrom the cutter chamber andextract it out the conveyor, keepingthe machine cleaner and prolong-ing component life. And Wirtgen’snew 3DS flexible application drumspeed system will automaticallyslow drum speeds in deep cuts,saving on fuel consumption andtooth wear.Optional forward and rear tele-

vision cameras provide a view ofreclaimed asphalt pavement intothe haul truck hopper, or when theunit is in reverse, a view to the rear.For more information, visit

Wirtgen W 210i, W 200i Comply With Tier IVi Standards

Volvo Compaction Heavyweights Handle Many ApplicationsWhen it comes to the biggest asphalt com-

pacting jobs, Volvo Construction Equipmentoffers a range of high-performing heavy hit-ters — all of which are designed to handle avariety of applications and conditions anddeliver a smooth, even mat in fewer passes.Highly versatile and capable of tackling a

variety of applications, Volvo heavyweightdouble-drum asphalt compactors, theDD110B, DD120B and DD140B, can man-age the industry’s biggest tasks — frommajor highway work to airport runways.High centrifugal force, powerful frequen-

cy and optimal drum weight combine to pro-duce optimum energy output for excellentcompaction and high machine productivity,according to the manufacturer. The DD110B, DD120B and DD140B

offer dual amplitude settings, allowing oper-ators to quickly and easily adjust drumforces when material depth changes. Foreven greater versatility, eight amplitude set-tings are available, allowing operators toadjust amplitude as circumstances vary witha hand wheel conveniently located inside the

end of each drum. The spring-loaded designallows for quick and precise adjustments thatoptimize drum performance, helping opera-tors achieve maximum compaction resultswith fewer passes. Maintaining proper impact spacing is

simplified, as well. When operators selectthe appropriate amplitude setting, themachine automatically matches that settingwith an ideal frequency, inducing higherforces at lower amplitudes, accelerating thecompaction of thinner lifts and warm mixeswithout fracturing the aggregate in the mat.

Powerful EfficiencyThese compactors are equipped with the

Volvo D4 engine, which conforms to TierIVi emissions standards, providing strong,fuel-efficient performance with power inreserve. Propulsion comes in the form of aclosed loop hydrostatic parallel circuit toboth drums, which are fitted with heavy-duty radial piston motors. Travel speeds goup to 7 mph (11.3 kmh), and vibration auto-matically engages or disengages when pre-

set speed thresholds are reached. When anoperator selects the automatic operationalmode, eccentric rotation is matched to thedirection of travel, helping eliminate the pos-sibility operators will forget to adjust the set-ting. This not only requires less enginepower, but results in reduced material distor-tion and improved mat smoothness.The compactors feature two independent

water systems, each with its own primaryand back-up spray bar. The pressurizedwater system provides consistent water flowto the drum surfaces, eliminating asphaltbuild-up that would require time-consumingand costly rework. As the water flow isadjustable, water can be conserved, therebyreducing the time taken for water refills.

Safe and Comfortable forIncreased Productivity

Operator safety and enhanced productivi-ty were top priorities in each compactordesign. The operator area provides an unob-structed, all-around view, reducing operatorneck strain and improving safety for person-

nel on the ground. The vibration-isolatedoperator platform and ergonomic layout ofcontrols contribute to a low-fatigue workenvironment. The operator sits in aROPS/FOPS protected structure with a con-sole that can be rotated 180 degrees, opti-mizing comfort and sight line visibility. Aconsole-mounted impact spacing meterallows operators to adjust travel speeds tomaintain proper asphalt smoothness.

Access for Maintenance andService

Routine maintenance is simplified with aswing-up hood that allows for easy, ground-level access to the engine and hydrauliccomponents. Lockable covers protect theoperator console, while lockable enginehood, fuel cap, water fill cap and deck accessdoors help deter theft and vandalism.For more information, visit

Volvo SD115 Designed toMeet Wide Range of NeedsThe SD115 soil compactor from Volvo

Construction Equipment is designed to meetthe needs of a wide range of medium- toheavy-duty compaction tasks and comesloaded with new features. Weighing 25,690lbs. (11,650 kg), the updates are designed toimprove the overall compacting experience— efficiency, productivity and fuel economyare boosted, while the cost of operation isreduced, according to the manufacturer.

Drum Performance The SD115 is built for maximum com-

paction performance, with high centrifugalforce, amplitude and drum weight combin-ing to produce the energy necessary for com-paction and high machine productivity. As terrain and material depths change,

increasing and decreasing dynamic drum

forces is simple. High or low amplitudes canbe selected with a switch on the operatorcontrol panel, providing the operator theflexibility to adjust dynamic force. Twodrum frequencies also can be chosen with aconsole switch to compensate for changingsoil types and conditions. A five-frequencyfeature is available as an option to furtherboost the machine’s versatility and perform-ance. A center joint provides +/-38 degrees of

articulation and +/-17 degrees of drum oscil-lation for stable, flexible machine perform-ance and greater operator comfort overrough terrain. With the 84-in. (213 cm) drumin constant contact with the ground surface,compaction is smooth and uniform. A redesigned drum frame design makes

compaction on steep slopes easier and moreeffective, as the SD115 can negotiate 35 per-cent slopes for better gradeability. Theangled frame allows higher clearance in theapproach to steep slopes and while loading,eliminating the possibility of damaging theroad surface and preventing possible dam-age to the machine, according to the manu-

facturer. The heavily constructed axle is integrated

in the drive train for an efficient rear-wheeldrive system. The No-Spin differentialincreases traction, eliminates tire slippageand improves gradeability, performance andproductivity. The optional Ultra-Grade trac-tion system provides optimum stability andsurefootedness when operating on slipperysurfaces and steep inclines, improvinggradeability.

Now More EnvironmentallyFriendly and Productive

The centerpiece of the SD115 is its pow-erful Volvo engine, available in a four-cylin-der (147.5 hp / 110 kW) or six-cylinder (173hp / 129 kW) version. The Tier IVi EPA-cer-tified engine improves air quality and meets

stringent North Americanregulations, while achiev-ing all the performance,dependability and fuelefficiency that Volvo isknown for. A diesel partic-ulate filter (DPF) burns offand eliminates materialbuild-up inside the filter— further reducing emis-sions. For added peace ofmind, the engine is backedby Volvo dealer serviceand parts support, as wellas a 1,000-hour warranty. A hydraulically operat-

ed engine cooling fan runsonly when needed, reducing fuel consump-tion — noise levels also decrease for greateroperator comfort. Volvo long-life coolantprotects the machine for up to 6,000 hours,resulting in lowered operating costs andmore uptime. A new hydraulic oil fill andVolvo standard sight glass are included, min-imizing the possibility of oil spills and over-filling — and thereby preventing damage tothe environment.In line with the Volvo commitment to

safety, the emergency stop system can beeasily activated by the operator, shuttingdown the engine, applying the brakes andstopping the machine’s movement. Furtherpromoting safe operating conditions, aswitch located in the seat will shut themachine down and apply the brakes if theoperator rises from the seat for more thanfive seconds during operation.For more information, call 717/532-9181

Volvo Pavers Designed for Smooth, Precise Mat PlacementThe P8820C ABG

tracked paver from VolvoConstruction Equipment canpave widths up to 42.7 ft. (13m), while the P7820C ABGpaves up to 36 ft. (11 m).Both machines combinepower and precision —delivering a perfectlysmooth mat, even indemanding conditions, suchas steep hills, according tothe manufacturer.Designed as global paving

products, the only differingfeature is the engine, made tocomply with local marketrequirements. In NorthAmerica, pavers are pow-ered by the newest Volvoengine — a D8 Tier IV inter-im emissions-compliant, six-cylinder, 7-L engine. TheP7820C is equipped with a235 hp (175 kW) enginewhile the P8820C possesses268 hp (200 kW); bothengines offer high powerand low noise and fuel con-sumption.

Designed for Fuel Economy

These Volvo pavers weredesigned to maximize fueleconomy, conserving fuelwithout affecting operationthrough an operator-selectedsmart power mode. Ifengaged, the smart power modeimmediately lowers power to1,600 rpm, reducing fuel con-sumption by up to 30 percent. Noise level also is noticeably

lower due to quieter engines,sound lowering components and arobust frame. In some cases, suchas when using the smart power fea-ture, a 50 percent reduction innoise levels can be realized,decreasing public annoyance whenworking in urban areas, and reduc-ing operator fatigue.

Throughput, Power, Visibility and ControlThe P8820C can pave up to 42.7

ft. (13 m) and place 1,212 tons(1,100 t) per hour, while theP7820C can pave up to 36 ft. (11m) and place up to 992 tons (900 t)per hour. These high levels ofthroughput make the P8820C andP7820C suitable for a wide rangeof applications, from municipalroads and highways to waste stor-

age areas. They also prove versa-tile in their ability to pave a rangeof materials, including all kinds ofwearing, binder and base courses,roller-compacted concrete, andfrost protection layers includingcement-treated base, according tothe manufacturer. A large, ergonomically designed

cab provides operators with com-fort as well as all-around visibility.A direct view into the hopper,auger channel and work area pro-vides optimum conditions forhigh-quality paving. The seat posi-tion can be adjusted, as can thecontrol panel. The central controlpanel can swivel, tilt and extend,and also features the latestElectronic Paver Management II(EPM II) system.Controlling all paving process-

es, EPM II intuitively guides theoperator through working func-tions. Operators can select menusfor engine data, which are dis-played clearly on a large color

screen in multiple languages. EPMII also monitors fuel consumptionand contains a service intervalmanager and settings manager.The service interval manager alertsthe operator when required mainte-nance is due. The settings managerallows operators to save settings inthe system which can be recalled inthe future when similar conditionsare present. This reduces set-uptimes, improves productivity andensures a consistent mat quality.For security, the EPM II console,screed control panel and auxiliarycontrol panel can be removed andstored in a lockable compartmentwhen not in use.

Perfect Paving —Performance and QualityVolvo models offer fixed and

variable extending screeds, provid-ing performance in terms of quali-ty, uniformity, texture, density andsmoothness. Not only does thisreduce the need for subsequent

roller compaction, the screeds alsocontribute to a smoother and moreeven mat. The screeds can be usedon bituminous, concrete base,aggregate and railway ballastmaterial. Extensions can be addedor removed in minutes — no spe-cial tools required — using theVolvo quick coupling system.Variomatic (variable extending)screeds have a dual-electric heat-ing bar arrangement to provideconsistent and reliable heating.Volvo fixed width screeds featurean efficient gas heating system andcan be fitted with fixed and vari-able extensions. A screed loaddevice prevents paving bumps byexerting pressure on the screed fora short period after paving starts. Paving efficiency is assisted by

the large hopper design, whichworks in combination with theconveyor and large folding wingsto avoid segregation, ensuring aconsistent mix of materials anduninterrupted material flow

(avoiding stops and starts).The P7820C hopper capaci-ty is 29,760 lbs. (13,500 kg)of material, while theP8820C capacity is 30,860lbs. (14,000 kg). An optionalfront hopper apron emptiesmaterial at the front of thehopper into the conveyorsystem — all but eliminatingover-spill. Independent,reversible hydrostatic drives,for both bar conveyors andaugers, ensure paving mate-rial is evenly distributed toboth sides of the screed. Theoptimum head of material ismaintained in the augerchannel by adjusting theheight, speed and directionof the augers. This largervolume of throughput sup-ports optimum mat qualityregardless of width, thick-ness or paving speed, as wellas continuous paving, suchas under bridges.

Getting the Power Down

Wide contact area crawlertracks combined with goodweight distribution create aneffective transfer of enginepower to the road. The rub-ber pad-clad crawler unitsare maintenance free andfeature individual, electroni-cally-controlled drives for

each track. A system monitorstrack movement and controlsmotor response to ensure bothstraight line and fixed radius workis accurate. These — combinedwith good weight distribution —ensure an efficient paving process.Smooth and precise control of theelectro-hydraulic steering is gainedvia an easy-to-use dial on the con-trol panel.These tracked pavers from

Volvo are easy to maintain, withimproved service access from thedeck to service points, provided vialarge opening compartments. Anoptional central lubrication systemsimplifies maintenance still further.A folding canopy allows for easytransport.For more information, call

GOMACO Responds to Customers With Sidewalk PaverGOMACO introduced the

GT-3200 sidewalk paver with anadjustable aggregate base moldon the front and a sidewalkpaving mold on the rear at Worldof Concrete 2013. It’s a three-track paver designed specificallyfor zero-clearance sidewalkrehabilitation projects, fulfillinga contractor’s unique request.

The GOMACO GT-3200 canbe equipped with a front-mount-ed adjustable aggregate basemold to spread the base aggre-gate for the sidewalk. During thefirst pass, rock is placed on gradeand an auger spreads the materi-al, while three pan vibratorsmounted to the mold start thecompaction process. The basemold is equipped with twoheavy-duty hydraulic cylindersthat provide 14 in. (35.6 cm) ofhydraulic lift for setting the grade depthbelow the track line and raising the mold forthe paving pass.

During the second paving pass, the side-walk is slipformed with a unique, minimum-clearance trailing mold. The GT-3200 side-walk paver has a 20 in. (50.8 cm) wide, 14 ft.

(4.3 m) long folding conveyor. The convey-or allows ready-mix trucks to discharge fromthe street instead of driving over existingcurb to reach the paver. The hydraulic pivot-ing conveyor also has been designed torotate 180 degrees to allow for easy loadingof concrete into the hopper from either side

of the machine and to avoid obstacles asso-ciated with zero-clearance paving. The side-walk mold features hydraulic adjustablesideplates to form the GOMACO edge,while a trailing stainless pan provides thesuperior finish. The sidewalk mold also canbe equipped with a bar inserter for placing

transverse bars into the slab, ifrequired by project specifications.

The GT-3200 sidewalk paveralso features all-track steering,which saves time getting on andoff stringline, allows better job-site mobility, and ease in loadingand unloading for transport. Itcan be transported withoutremoving either the front-mount-ed adjustable aggregate basemold or the rear-mounted side-walk paving mold. Simply foldthe conveyor and drive the GT-3200 onto the trailer for transport.It features the latest in GOMA-CO machine control with theexclusive G+ system with a newfull color screen.

G+ is a powerful controllerfor paving accuracy and elec-tronic monitoring of steeringand grade. G+, combined with

the GT-3200’s C4.4T Caterpillar enginewith 91 hp (67.9 kW), provides plenty ofpower for sidewalk paving, according tothe manufacturer.

June Employment Totals 5.8MThe unemployment rate for workers who

last worked in construction declined to 9.8percent from 12.8 percent in June 2012, notseasonally adjusted, and the number ofunemployed construction workers droppedby 214,000 to 825,000. The latest numberswere the best June figures for each seriessince 2008, Simonson noted.

Construction employment in June totaled5.8 million, an increase of 190,000 or 3.4percent over the past year. Aggregate week-ly hours of all new and existing constructionemployees expanded by an even larger 4.7percent, as companies put more workers onovertime.�

“The number of unemployed workerswith construction experience has fallen tolow enough levels that firms in a growingnumber of locations and segments are hav-ing trouble finding people with the neededskills,” Simonson said. “Contractors havefilled the gap so far by adding to workers’hours but this ‘solution’ may be reaching itslimit.”

Residential and nonresidential contractorshave added workers in nearly equal num-bers, Simonson observed. Residential build-ing and specialty trade contractors added5,200 in June and 90,200 (4.4 percent) over12 months. Nonresidential building, special-

ty trade and heavy and civil engineering con-struction firms grew by 8,400 workers inJune and 99,800 (2.8 percent) from a yearearlier. In a favorable sign for future con-struction growth, architectural and engineer-ing services employment rose by 2.6 percentover the year.

Association officials said some of thefuture worker shortages that will come if theindustry continues to add jobs over the com-ing months might still be averted. Theyurged education officials to rebuild skills-based, or vocational, educational programsdesigned to help prepare students for careersin construction and manufacturing. And theyurged Congress and the administration toreject the arbitrary caps on constructionworkers that are currently included in theSenate’s immigration legislation.

“Now that demand for construction isfinally picking up, it is vital to ensure that theindustry can find enough qualified workers,”said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’schief executive officer. “There are actionsthat policy makers should take now before aworker shortage cuts short the industry’srecovery.”

Sigalarm has unveiled a new range control warning system. Design forthe system originated in England and later came to Orlando, Fla. Unitswere out in the field for two years for testing with the wireless units. Sigalarm has combined GPS and E-field detection technology. This

has reduced site hazards associated with working near power lines. Manyutility companies map line locations. Combining this information withGPS enables a three-dimensional look at equipment location in relationto power lines.“This is the only product that has E-field sensing combined with GPS

to keep track of power lines. Combined technology gives better technol-ogy,” said President of Sigalarm, Lance Burney.With Sigalarm’s new system the X Y and Z positions allow the loca-

tion of the boom to be continually mapped in relation to the power lines.The data can be sent to anyone who needs to see it in addition to theequipment operator. Sigalarm’s products can be used for a wide range ofequipment from lattice boom and telescopic boom cranes, side booms,excavators and concrete pumps. “We have been in business for 15 years working around power lines

with no accidents. We like to think of ourselves as the Coca-Cola of ourtiny world. We are on the cutting edge of technology,” said Burney. Sigalarm has manufactured power line warning systems for decades.

Sigalarm is located in Sanford, Fla., with a primary manufacturing facil-ity in Rockledge, Fla. In 1999, Allied Safety Systems Inc. purchased therights to Sigalarm Inc. and continues to operate business as Sigalarm. Formore information visit sigalarminc.com or call 800/589-3769.

construction project,” said ASAChief Advocacy Officer E. ColetteNelson. “Forum-selection clausescan chill a subcontractor’s abilityto recover claims by imposing sig-nificant and unnecessary impedi-ments and financial costs to therecovery of amounts due.”If the Supreme Court were to

require strict enforcement of suchclauses, it would undermine sub-contractors’ ability to point to statelaw voiding or making voidableforum-selection clauses in con-struction contracts that mandate lit-igation or arbitration in a stateother than the state where the proj-ect is located.“Twenty-two states have enact-

ed laws that void, or make void-able, forum-selection clauses inconstruction contracts that attemptto require litigation outside thestate where the work was per-formed,” Nelson noted.In the underlying case, the gen-

eral contractor, Atlantic Marine,hired J-Crew as a subcontractor towork on a construction project tobuild a child care facility at a mili-tary base in Fort Hood, Texas. The

subcontract contained a forum-selection clause requiring that alldisputes “shall be litigated in theCircuit Court for the City ofNorfolk, Virginia, or the UnitedStates District Court for theEastern District of Virginia,Norfolk division.”J-Crew subcontracted much of

its work to predominantly localsubcontractors and suppliers,almost all of which were located inthe Western District of Texas in oraround Killeen, Texas, and near theproject. All of the subcontract workwas performed in Texas. When theproject was completed, almost$160,000 remained unpaid to J-Crew, even though it had timelycompleted its work.J-Crew ignored the forum-selec-

tion clause and sued in Texas, inthe federal district where the proj-

ect was located. Atlantic Marinemoved to dismiss or transfer thecase to federal court in the EasternDistrict of Virginia, relying on theforum-selection clause in the sub-contract. J-Crew argued that theU.S. Code provides that if a law-suit is filed in a proper venue, thecourt may transfer it to anothervenue “for the convenience of theparties and witnesses, in the inter-est of justice.” J-Crew asserted thatthe trial court had to consider inter-ests of justice and the convenienceof the parties and witnesses whenresolving disputes over venue, andcited case law that courts mustweigh in the decision to transfer“according to the individualized,case-by-case consideration forconvenience and fairness.”In this case, the project, the sub-

contractor, the subcontractor’s

office, project records, personnel,and all of the second-tier subcon-tractors and non-party witnesseswho performed the work werelocated in Texas. J-Crew arguedthat convenience and fairness sup-ported litigation in Texas instead ofVirginia. In addition, there were atleast seven non-party witnesseswho were beyond the subpoenapower of the Virginia Court andcould not be compelled to testify inVirginia. Moreover, because proj-ect records were in Texas, therewere costs and efficiencies fromhaving discovery in the state wherethe project and principal witnesseswere located.Finally, J-Crew argued that liti-

gating the dispute in the WesternDistrict of Texas was importantfrom a policy standpoint, citingTexas law making voidable any

forum-selection clause in a con-struction contract that provided forvenue outside of the state.The trial court agreed with J-

Crew and refused to dismiss thecase or transfer venue to Virginia.Atlantic Marine called on the 5thCircuit Court of Appeals to enforcethe forum-selection clause, but theappeals court agreed with the trialcourt’s reasoning. Atlantic Marineappealed to the U.S. SupremeCourt, which has granted review.ASA has retained Kegler,

Brown, Hill & Ritter, Columbus,Ohio, to prepare its brief. Firmattorneys Don Gregory and EricTravers will lead the effort.ASA’s Subcontractors Legal

Defense Fund will finance the briefin this case. The SLDF supportsASA’s critical legal activities inprecedent-setting cases to protectthe interests of all subcontractors.ASA taps the SLDF to fund ami-cus briefs in appellate-level casesthat would have a significantimpact on subcontractor rights.


“Forum-selection clauses can chill a subcontractor’s ability to recoverclaims by imposing significant and unnecessary impediments andfinancial costs to the recovery of amounts due.”
