Crushing, Screening & Recycling Section

Event Marks Integration of Fintec, Extec Under SandvikSandvik Mining and Construction held a

highly successful four-day customer eventJune 23 to 26. Events took place in theUnited Kingdom at Sandvik’s Swadlincotefactory, a nearby hotel and a recycling facil-ity.

This event formally marked the integra-tion and re-branding of the Extec and Fintecproducts lines as part of Sandvik’s productoffering. The occasion also helped to creategreater awareness of the Sandvik productoffering throughout the United Kingdom,and to publicize the new global center ofexcellence that has recently been created atthe former Extec factory in Swadlincote.More than a thousand visitors participatedtraveling from a variety of places such asVenezuela, China, Spain, Ireland, Norwayand Scotland.

When the Deal StartedIn the spring of 2007 Sandvik acquired

the two manufacturers of mobile crushingand screening equipment — Extec Screensand Crushers Ltd, and Fintec Crushing andScreening Ltd. As leaders in the design andmanufacture of mobile crushing and screen-ing equipment, Extec and Fintec comple-ment Sandvik’s customer offering with mid-size and light equipment.

New customer segments have beenopened, providing opportunities for all par-ties.

“Sandvik brings its global network withaccess to quarry and mining customers.Extec and Fintec bring access to contractorcustomers and a competitive product line oftracked mobile crushers and screens,” saidMobile Screening and Crushing ManagingDirector Steve Powell. “Extec and Fintecalso benefit from Sandvik’s global resourcesand technical know-how, as Sandvik bringsadvanced crusher and screener product tech-nology combined with excellent processknowledge.”

Duncan McGregor, vice president con-struction product line, echoed Powell’s sen-timents that the biggest customer advantagesof bringing Fintec and Extec together underSandvik are its global presence, in particular,worldwide distribution and improved after-market support. He explained that mobile

crushing and screening equipment has comea long way in the last ten years.

“What used to be impossible to achievewith mobile equipment is now possible. Thecontractor segment, complete with its ownspecial business logic, has become a majorpart of the materials processing business allover the world; as the contractor businessfollows a business logic, very well matchedby a distribution strategy, we need to under-stand how to serve this segment in the bestpossible way.”

McGregor believes Sandvik has the rightbackground to address the needs of this par-ticular customer segment.

“The traditional business where Sandvikis particularly well-aligned consists of cus-tomers who are not contractors; they ownand sell minerals, whether for constructionmaterials or for what they are worth in termsof content. This is a new area of develop-ment for the acquired businesses, but quitenormal for the heavier range from Sandvikfor example.”

New Models, New ColorsSandvik has chosen to unify its mobile

crusher and screen range under a singlebrand, signified by new model nomenclatureand machine colors, which was given itsworldwide launch at the global customerevent.

“Going to one brand increases customerawareness of Sandvik’s full offering.Branding and segment strategy helpsSandvik to improve and broaden the servic-es to a variety of customers by using thewider breadth of our organization, but theExtec and Fintec products are still there, andthe features that made them world leadersare incorporated into the new product offer-ing,” McGregor said.

The global customer event also proved tobe the perfect occasion to introduce Extecand Fintec’s customer base to other productmembers of the Sandvik family. As part ofthe activities attendees were treated to livedemonstrations, seminars, presentations anda tours of the Swadlincote Global Centre ofExcellence, the aftermarket division andglobal customer support center.

“We needed an occasion that would high-

light just how important mobile crushingand screening is to Sandvik and to show thatSandvik now leads the world in this area.Sandvik’s global position, advanced engi-neering and aftermarket customer care pro-grams are the envy of every constructionequipment manufacturer in the world; theyhave now been married to a customer-focused product line that enables Sandvik tobe truly number one,” McGregor said.

Anders Kjelberg, vice president of busi-ness development added, “Sandvik offers afull range encompassing drill rigs, tools,breakers and static plants that possess directapplications to companies of all sizes that areinvolved in quarrying, construction, demoli-tion, recycling and surface mining. Theseproducts also possess attributes that are suit-ed to the contractor segment. The mobilescreening and crushing division now allowsour customers to enjoy a one-stop shop, sothat we can truly be the solutions partner ofchoice for all our customers, worldwide.”

Customer EventAt the event visitors registered at the

Belfry hotel and enjoyed a complimentarybreakfast before attending presentations onthe rebranding, Sandvik Mining andConstruction and other the developmentsconcerning the global center of excellence.After the presentations attendees were takento the demonstration areas, where they wereable to see live-action demonstrations of the

mobile screening and crushing equipment,drill rigs and breakers, in both recycling andaggregate production set-ups.

The actual demonstrations included:

• Quarrying demonstration of aQJ340 (C-12+) tracked jaw crusher, feedinga QH330 (F1080) tracked cone crusher, andthen feeding directly into a QA450 (S-7)tracked triple deck screener.

• Demolition and Recycling: with avariety of feeds showing the QE330 (F640)tracked scalper, QA330 (F542) double decktracked screen, and a QI430 (F1440) trackedimpact crusher feeding a QA440 (S-6)tracked doublescreen.

A variety of materials were processed,producing differing sizes, in order to high-light the inherent flexibility of the productrange, whatever the application.

In order to provide an over view of the fullSandvik product offering a static display alsowas in evidence. The machines shownincluded:

• UH440i tracked cone crusher• QJ330 (F1107) tracked jaw crusher• QE440 (E-8) tracked scalping and

Product LaunchThe occasion also marked the worldwide launch of a

brand new product — the QE440. The QE440 has beendeveloped over the last 18 months through Sandvik’s R&Dprogram. Based on in-depth customer and market analysis,the QE440 has been developed in order to deal with realoperating requirements, which traditional screening solu-tions are unable to adequately cater to, according to the man-ufacturer.

Following the demonstrations, participants visitedSandvik’s Swadlincote factory, which used to be the Extecheadquarters and is now not only Sandvik’s global center ofexcellence for mobile crushing and screening, but also thecenter for mining and construction within the UnitedKingdom and Ireland. The visitors were treated to a lightlunch and refreshments, and then given a factory tour show-ing the production and engineering facilities. A major pointof interest proved to be the Global aftermarket center, wherevisitors were shown the full parts and service operation,together with the newly operational Global CustomerService Centre.

Upon completion of the tour visitors were presented withopportunities to participate in interactive seminars hosted bySandvik training specialists. The seminars included:

• Demolition and recycling• Aggregate production• Mobile crushing and screening• Health and safety

Remains of the DayTo finish the day’s events, guests were returned to the

hotel where they enjoyed a dinner and themed entertain-ments.

The Sandvik customer event highlighted Sandvik’s com-mitment to its newly acquired companies and demonstratedthe product range to customers who may have lacked famil-iarity with many items in the Sandvik portfolio.

Individual Plans More Practical for Transient Industryhealth plan pools.

• Greater leeway for individuals and companies to buyinsurance policies across state lines. Many Americans andAmerican companies are limited by state lines in buyinghealth insurance for themselves or their employees. This par-ticularly is a problem in states that mandate insurance bene-fits and levels of access. The mandates have the unintendedconsequences of limiting consumer choice and driving uprates. Example: Most healthy young workers neither need,nor want, plans covering health problems associated withmiddle age, yet they or their employers are required by some

state laws to pay for such plans. Abill to ease these mandateshas been offered in the House of Representatives since 2005.It would allow insurance companies to sell nationally, acrossstate lines, which would increase competition for each state’spool of customers and put downward pressure on insurancepremiums.

• More emphasis on individual ownership of an insur-ance policy. The construction workforce is more transientthan workers in some other industries because of the natureof the work: Construction occurs at ever changing worksites, rather than in one industrial plant or even in one state.Furthermore, construction workers often pack up their tools

and go where there seems to be more opportunity. Havinginsurance policies as portable as their work skills would ben-efit construction workers, advocates say. Revising tax lawswould let individuals fully deduct the expense of insuranceand give them incentive to shop around for policies best suit-ed to their needs, which they then could take with them whenthey moved to a new job. Companies, in turn, would be freedfrom obligations to insure the self-insured workers.

• Expanded use of Health Savings Accounts andFlexible Savings Accounts. Health Savings Accounts letindividual employees put money aside specifically for healthexpenses in tax-free savings accounts. Flexible SavingsAccounts are the “cafeteria plans” by which individualemployees have money withheld for spending on medicalprocedures or co-payments. Small business advocates con-tend individuals will take control of their long-term healthcare planning if they are allowed to buy high-deductibleplans combined with HSAs or are allowed to let money intheir cafeteria accounts roll over from year to year.Proponents of the accounts believe the absence of personalresponsibility for health care has led to abuse of insurance —and to greater health care expense for everyone.

• New rules for medical liability. In monitoring and lob-bying Congress for meaningful health care reform,Associated General Contractors complained as late asSeptember about the “failure of legislation to address mal-practice reform.” So far none of the health care bills havetouched on the issue. Essentially, the threat of lawsuits hasdriven up the cost of medical care with doctors and hospitalsordering often-unnecessary procedures as protection againstbeing sued. Reducing liability in medical practice is part of anational tort reform movement, which seeks higher legalthresholds for filing of suits and lower limits on settlements.Studies show that reforming liability rules along those lineswould reduce health care costs, directly and indirectly, with-out barring genuine victims of medical malpractice frompursuing effective legal recourse.

• Enactment of tax laws that will truly enhance reformwithout injuring businesses. It is difficult to stay current onhealth care tax proposals because they change week to week.Generally, tax laws that business executives resist are theones that impose taxes to (1) help pay for a mandate, (2)penalize a company for not meeting mandated requirements,or (3) raise costs of a company program to prohibitive levelsjust to force compliance with a preferred government alter-native. Such taxes generally do not increase productivityand, thus, are viewed as anti-business. Whereas tax credits ornew taxes that level a playing field for small business orreward company efficiency are viewed as business-friendly.The construction industry generally deems the tax proposalscontained in current health care bills to be unfriendly.

While the aforementioned features of a new system can beshown to measurably benefit construction companies andemployees, other features in the reform debate are rootedmore in political philosophy than in medical processes orgood business practice.

One such feature is the so-called “public option.”Supporters of it argue that letting the government competewith private sector insurers in offering insurance will forcethe insurance industry to offer better deals. They believe truereform will not occur unless government is allowed to com-

Philosophical Divide Still Wide on Health Care Reform pete.

Opponents respond that when government enters the mar-ketplace, private sector competitors are automatically disad-vantaged despite inherent government inefficiencies andbureaucracy. That’s because when government sets rules andalso plays the game, the outcome invariably favors govern-ment; after all, if things go badly for government, the rulesalways can be changed.

The same philosophical divide is evident in discussionsabout other mandates in the reform bills. These include the“pay or play” stipulation, whereby companies either willoffer their employees insurance as ordered by government orwill pay an 8 percent payroll tax. Opponents of the tax insistit is regressive and will hurt lower income employees themost, inducing job losses.

Other mandates under active consideration would forceinsurance companies to offer health coverage to anyone whowants it regardless of an individual’s health — withoutregard to actuarial risk assessments, in other words — and tooffer the insurance at uniform cost to employees regardlessof the actual state of health of individual applicants.

Critics note that such rules of coverage totally disregardthe question of cost, both to companies and to the country.Consequently, the almost guaranteed results are job losses,crippling financial burdens for companies and runaway fed-eral deficits. Supporters of unrestricted universal coverage,

on the other hand, insist that the true budgetary impact ofreform will be minimal.

Taking the negative view on the mandates is theConstruction Industry Round Table. In a late Septemberstatement, the consortium of 100 CEOs across the UnitedStates declared that “there is no question that the types of‘reform’ being discussed are filled with mandates on insur-ance companies and employers, all of which will drive upthe cost of insurance for companies that purchase policies fortheir employees.”

The latest congressional offering is a Senate compromisebill from a committee chaired by Sen. Max Baucus. Callingit a “good faith effort” and the “best effort to date,” the U.S.Chamber of Commerce still finds it an unacceptable reformvehicle, largely because of tax components.

“We have grave concerns over the vast array of new taxescontained in the bill,” the Chamber said in part. “This billcreates a new tax on benefits that may well spiral out of con-trol to become the next Alternative Minimum Tax. It taxesprescriptions, insurance policies, medical devices, clinicsand labs … and all of these taxes will increase costs foremployers and workers. The bill does not contain healthcourts or any other meaningful medical liability reform. Notto mention, the bill creates a massive new entitlement in theform of insurance credits that will burden taxpayers now andin the future. Overall, the bill still needs tremendousimprovement.”

President Obama and leaders of the majority party inCongress are pushing for passage this session of health carelegislation, one way or another, probably by trimming fea-tures and combining other features of several bills until theycraft a product with majority support. Their expressed senseof urgency in passing something stems from political calcu-lation rather than from any real crisis in health care. Passageof a reform bill this year or next year is all the same — thearc of medical costs is not shooting up that fast. But votes forthe controversial legislation will be easier to cobble togetherin 2009 than in the election year of 2010 and passage willgive a sense of forward momentum to a new presidency.

Legislators who prefer to examine the details of thesweeping legislation in a more orderly way are hoping toslow what they consider a rush to enactment. They concedethe need for changes in the system, but see fiscal or proce-dural disaster in acting in haste.

Companies and business associations — including con-struction industry groups — continue to lobby for commonsense and enduring principles in forging solutions to risinghealth costs. Lobbying and informing their constituencies isabout all the groups can do. In the end, the decision will bemade by the two Houses of Congress and businesses will behanded a new system with instructions to make it work.

Kenworth Unveils New Diesel-Electric Service Truck Kenworth Truck Company introduced its first diesel-electric hybrid truck in a service

application at the recent World of Concrete Show in Las Vegas.Kenworth’s goal is to enhance fuel economy by up to 50 percent with the new Kenworth

T270 hybrid service truck, which is expected to draw interest for use in various service appli-cations in construction and other industries, according to the company.

“Service applications are perfect for the hybrid due to the various onboard tools and diag-nostic equipment mechanics use and the stop-and-go pace of moving from location to loca-tion to fix equipment,” said Gary Moore, Kenworth assistant general manager for marketingand sales. “Instead of idling the engine to run the crane and other equipment, a mechanic canoperate them on electric power, which reduces emissions. That allows companies to go‘green,’ helping the environment.”

The Kenworth T270 hybrid is powered by a 260-hp (194 kW) PACCAR PX-6 engine, andfeatures an integral transmission-mounted motor/generator, a frame-mounted 340-volt bat-tery pack and a dedicated power management system. The power management system pro-vides electricity to run a 10,000-lb. (4,536 kg) hydraulic crane.

Sundt Construction of Tempe, Ariz., will take delivery of the Class 6 truck, equipped witha Valew mechanic’s field service body.

In addition to the hybrid service truck, Kenworth also displayed three other trucks at Worldof Concrete: a Kenworth W900S mixer and two Kenworth T800s — one equipped as a superdump and the other with a Conveyor Applications Systems (CAS) slinger.

Kenworth has received the J.D. Power and Associates award for Highest in CustomerSatisfaction for Vocational Segment Class 8 Truck for the past two years in a row.

New Vanguard Truck Center Facility Opens Outside AustinVanguard Truck Center of Austin, a mem-

ber of the Vanguard Truck Centers dealergroup, marked the opening of a $4.5 milliontruck center facility in Buda, Texas on Oct.2.

The group, which distributes MackTrucks, Inc. and Volvo Trucks NorthAmerica products, also owns facilities inAtlanta, Houston, Tucson, and Phoenix. Thenew location outside of Austin will operateas a full service truck center, represent theMack and Volvo product lines, and serve asa parts and service center for NorwoodEquipment of Houston. Vanguard has acommitment to diagnosing customer serviceproblems within 2 hours, and the new facili-ty is designed for such quick response, witha strong emphasis on driver comfort andconvenience.

“We’re appealing to over-the-road driv-ers, and whether they’re here for preventa-tive maintenance, elective repairs, or neces-sary service, we offer a quick turn-aroundtime on their trucks,” said Tom Ewing, pres-ident of Vanguard Truck Centers. “We knowthey need to get back on the road quickly, butwhile they’re waiting, we’ll make them ascomfortable as possible — they can do laun-dry, take a shower, or just relax in thelounge.”

“This state-of-the-art facility is anotherexample of the kind of investment in world-

class service that’s been going on in our dis-tribution network over the past severalyears,” said Scott Kress, Volvo senior vicepresident of sales. “Volvo customers expectsupport where and when they need it acrossthe U.S. and Canada, and that’s exactly whatwe’re providing through partnerships withdealers like the Vanguard group.”

“The fact that this facility is opening now,in such a difficult economy and truck mar-ket, speaks volumes about the commitmentof everyone in the Mack family,” said KevinFlaherty, Mack senior vice president, sales.“Rather than folding up our tents until thestorm passes, we’re out there doing what ittakes to take care of our customers.”

In addition to satisfying the needs of thetrucking industry, the strategic placement ofthe new facility takes into account needs ofthe Austin community.

“We chose this site because of its conven-

ient access to the toll road, and the fact that itis located directly south of the toll roadaccess, allowing truck drivers to take analternate route around Austin instead ofusing the already heavily congested I-35downtown corridor,” said Vanguard’sEwing.

An Open House event held at the facilityOct. 2 included food from a local favorite –Salt Lick BBQ — as well as raffle prizes andtours. On display were two heavy-dutytrucks — one a Mack and the other a Volvo— both meeting the new EPA emissionsstandards going into effect next year.

“These trucks are the cleanest in theworld,” said David McKenna, Mack directorof powertrain sales and marketing, whospoke at today’s event. “They have near-zero emissions. In fact, in some parts of thecountry, the air coming out of the truck willbe cleaner than the air going in.”

During the event, McKenna placed awhite handkerchief over the exhaust stackon one of the trucks. Even with the engineat high rev, the “white hanky” remained bothclean and odorless.

“Clearly — and no pun intended there —the days of any black smoke coming out thestack of a new heavy-duty truck are over,”McKenna said.

For customers, these “clean diesel” trucksalso mean better fuel economy and a lowercost of operation. And they do not requirethe use of emissions credits to satisfy theEPA 2010 regulations.

Mack and Volvo are preserving jobs andpromoting economic growth by assemblingthe trucks in the United States.

“Through our state-of-the-art new facilitystrategically located to alleviate downtowncongestion, and our environmentally-friend-ly Mack and Volvo product lines, Vanguardis proud to have a positive influence on theAustin community,” Ewing said.

Vanguard Truck Centers owns and oper-ates full service commercial truck centers inthe United States, representing truck and busmanufacturers such as Mack Trucks Inc.,Volvo Trucks North America, Isuzu, GMCand Prevost.

UDOT Rebuilds Bridges on I-80 Job Using ABC Methodthree methods were use to transport them, Montoya said.

“First, we had to pick them up with giant modular trans-ports and move them,” he said. “Then, once we got close, wetransferred them to a kind of rail system to get them wherethey went horizontally and then we had to lower them verti-cally. There were sort of three different processes we used toget the bridges down into place which is pretty complex.Transferring between methods has its own set of complexi-ties.”

The bridges were moved only for the westbound lanes,Adan Carrillo, a UDOT spokesman, said.

“For the eastbound lanes, because we had already recon-structed part of I-80, we built the bridges in place with tradi-tional methods because we were not in such a hurry there.

“It was a major undertaking for the department and a his-torical thing not only for our department but for the nationbecause we were setting the standard in how we’re movingbridges from place to place,” he added.

The ABC method is “kind of emerging technologybecoming more and more common around the country,”Montoya said. “I think what made ours unusual was just thenumber that we had,” he added.

Before Innovate 80, UDOT used the ABC constructiontechnique on only one other bridge but since then it’s usedthe method for several others and will use it more in thefuture, Montoya said.

“We probably have another six or seven planned for vari-ous projects around the state to move in this way,” he said.

“Any construction method we will evaluate it on everybridge project and see if it’s worthwhile,” he said. “We’ll useit on the projects where it makes sense. We have several thatare under way now. Typically they’re on heavily traveledroutes like an Interstate and at locations where the detourroute is so long or there is no good alternative.”

The method not only saves money, it also saves time,Montoya said.

With ABC, crews can build the bridge’s substructure andsuperstructure at the same time.

“You can build those two simultaneously where typicallyyou can’t,” Montoya said. “In this case you can build bothof them concomitantly which did allow us to reduce theoverall time of the project in two years instead of three.”

“We placed all seven [bridges in the project] in a relative-ly short amount of time — relatively short amount of time,”he added.

But one of the biggest benefits of ABC is it allows crewsto keep traffic flowing on the highway during construction.That can be significant when the roadway crews are workingon is a major thoroughfare with few alternate routes like I-80through Salt Lake City.

The route is a major thoroughfare for the trucking indus-try for shipments between California and the East Coast,Montoya said.

“This is one of the major east-west thoroughfares in thecountry,” he said. “There’s a huge amount of traffic thatcomes in from the West Coast. It’s very heavily traveled.”

That’s where ABC was a real value.“It just allows us to build the bridges out of the way of traf-

fic so we don’t cause as many impacts on the traveling pub-lic as we normally do during a bridge project,” Montoyasaid.

“We just had a few closures where the Interstate has beencompletely closed and those were for short durations likebetween 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. There haven’t been many.

“Generally speaking, the road has been open which leadsto another innovation we used on the project — moveablebarriers. What we did was move everybody over to one sideof the freeway and reconstructed the other side with threelanes of traffic in each direction.

“We then divided them with the movable barriers so in themorning we had three lanes going into town and two lanesleaving town. We reversed that at night so there were threelanes leaving town and two lanes coming in. That wasanother way we were able to reduce the amount of trafficdelays. We’re just very excited that we were able to accom-plish all that on one project with minimal impact to traffic.”

Being featured on The World’s Toughest Fixes createdsome excitement about the project, Carrillo said.

“It was kind of cool for everybody — and our departmentas well — to have that kind of recognition.”

The project is part of Utah’s so-called Innovate 80, a col-lection of several projects on or near I-80 between LambsCanyon and Mountain Dell, built during 2008 and 2009.

The reconstruction of I-80 from State Street to 1300 Eastwas the “most significant” project in Innovate 80, Carrillosaid.

“That’s through a major urban area,” he said. “We’re talk-ing residential, we talking commercial—you name it.”

In addition to replacing the bridges, crews added twolanes in each direction including an auxiliary lane to helpmove traffic entering and exiting the highway between StateStreet and the 700 East and 1300 East exits.

“In between those ramps we built auxiliary lanes we did-n’t have before,” Carrillo said. “Before that once you got onthe on-ramp and you wanted to merge into I-80 you reallyneeded to speed up so you’re able to catch up with trafficgoing 70 miles an hour and you’re only going 40 miles anhour on the on-ramp.

“By us extending the auxiliary lanes you can now get onthe freeway and if you want to get on at 700 East and get offat 1300 East you don’t have to merge into traffic. You canjust keep going in that lane and get off at 1300 East. Thesame from State Street to 700 East.”

UDOT used a contracting method called constructionmanager-general contractor (CM-GC) to save time andmoney, Montoya said.

The method is similar to design-build but differentbecause the owner has more design control, he said. “Weinvolve the contractor in our design process so they provideinput.

“It’s different because the owner maintains control of thedesign whereas in design-build typically you’re bound by thecontract documents you put out initially. It’s a pretty newprocess to use in DOT-type project. I think only a handful inthe nation have used that kind of contracting method. Wecouldn’t have done this project any other way. It justrequires so much interaction between the owner, the builderand the designer where you can have concurrent design andthen it also leads for better innovation because you can makedecisions that aren’t solely based on money.”

Montoya called the project’s biggest challenges, asidefrom the complexity of the bridge moving “how to make ithappen, how to make it happen on time and how to make ithappen safely.”

Some 200 people have been working on the job with theexpected completion in December on time and on budget,Montoya said.

UDOT tried to limit late-hours work because the projectruns through “a heavy residential area,” Montoya said, andthe department didn’t want to “be impacting people atnight.” He added: “We did do some night work and therewere definitely some long hours out there to make every-thing happen especially during the bridge moves.”

Weather largely was not a problem on the project. “Wewere doing pretty well until this spring,” he said. “We had avery wet spring. That took away some of the progress wemade schedule wise. But we’re still finishing on time.”

Montoya is proud of the project’s safety record—not justfor workers but also for people who continued to use the roadthroughout the project.

“We’ve been able to stay on budget, stay on schedule andbuild one of the most complex projects we’ve ever under-taken and do it safely for the traveling public and for theworkers,” he said. “We’re pretty positive about all that.

Afactor in achieving a good safety record was the help theHighway Patrol lent in making sure the reduced work zonespeeds were enforced, he said.

In addition, the state pursued an “active safety programwith the workers in a big way,” Montoya said. “We madesure things were planned well and done safely.

“It just takes effort,” he said. “There’s no other way real-ly. It takes effort.”

Cashman Equipment Supports Start Us Up USA! EffortsCashman Equipment recently helped kick off a nation-

wide grassroots campaign, Start Us Up USA!, which calls onthe federal government to move quickly to reauthorize a crit-ical multi-year transportation bill. Construction workers andbusiness leaders gathered for a press conference and rallyfeaturing industry professionals from the AssociatedEquipment Distributors (AED), Association of EquipmentManufacturers (AEM), and Cashman Equipment.

Following the event, a caravan of heavy constructionequipment, idled by a scarcity of new federal funding intransportation, paraded down the Las Vegas Strip.

The Caterpillar dealership donated several pieces of heavyequipment to the parade of machines, creating a sight notoften seen in the heart of Las Vegas. However, with hugeprojects like the renovations to the I-15 at risk without a newmulti-year reauthorization bill from Congress, local industryleaders such as MaryKaye Cashman, chairman and CEO ofCashman Equipment, rushed to support the event.

“Our Caterpillar dealership has experienced a decline insales by 50 percent, and has 25 percent fewer employeestoday than at its peak a few years ago,” Cashman stated. “Weneed action taken now in order to create jobs — sustainablejobs that will put people back to work. Highway and con-struction projects are the fastest way to do so.”

Cashman’s comments during the rally were seconded byToby Mack, president and CEO, Associated EquipmentDistributors (AED); Dennis Slater, president, Association ofEquipment Manufacturers (AEM); Randy Highland, presi-dent of the Las Vegas Chapter of the Association of GeneralContractors (AGC); and other local business leaders whounderstand the importance of transportation investments.

The renewal and expansion of the HighwayReauthorization Bill will provide the necessary funding forthe nation’s infrastructure, which will spur a jobs recovery.Improvement projects give communities more transitoptions, safer roads, improve congested roads, and decreasegreenhouse gases while providing millions of constructionjobs. Federal transportation funding expired on Sept. 30, but

rally organizers AED and AEM believe this event and othersto be held across the country, will help motivate Congress totake immediate action. The final Start Us Up USA! rally isscheduled to be held Oct. 28 in Washington, D.C.

MaryKaye Cashman speaks at Start Us Up USA! onSept. 29.

The Caterpillar dealership donated several pieces ofheavy equipment — including this Caterpillar 623Gwheel tractor scraper on a Paul Delong truck — to theparade of machines, creating a sight not often seen inthe heart of Las Vegas.

Ritchie Bros. …Asphalt Plant Soldfor More Than $1.1Mat Fort Worth SaleRitchie Bros. Auctioneers conducted a three-day, $66

million unreserved public auction at its permanentauction site in Fort Worth, Texas from Sept. 23 to 25.

The company broke its Fort Worth records for largestgross auction proceeds (total and online), most registeredbidders (total and online), and most buyers (total and online).

More than 3,600 bidders from 40 countries, including 48U.S. states, 10 Canadian provinces and one Canadian territo-ry, registered for the $66 million Fort Worth auction. Two-thirds of the equipment was purchased by out of state buyers.

“We have never had two auction sites in the same statehold auctions this large within months of each other,” saidKieran Holm, area manager for Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers inFort Worth, Texas. “We had big crowds all three days, withvery active bidding both in-person and online. The bidderswere here to buy and they traveled to our auction site fromas far away as Australia to bid in-person on auction day.”

Mart Jordan, president of Jordan Paving in Fort Worth,sold an asphalt plant with components in the auction lastweek for more than $1.1 million.

“We sold with Ritchie Bros. because they seem to have themost buyers and you’ve got to have a crowd full of buyers toget the price you need. Ritchie Bros. did a good job and gotus the most money for our items on the day.”
