Inside the concretetunnel forms

By Giles LambertsonCEG CORRESPONDENT

It only required 40 years, but massive tunnel-ing deep beneath New York City for a vital newwater-carrying conduit is nearing completion. Awhale-sized digging machine, some tough con-

The $6 billion dig — the city’s largest capitalproject ever — involves tunneling out miles ofbedrock and building a tube in the tunnel usingmillions of cubic feet of concrete so the city of 8.3

The infestation of the mesquite,cedar/juniper trees and bushes, can serious-ly effect land productivity especially inTexas and Oklahoma.

Two companies have found a way toeffectively solve this problem.

Kirby-Smith and Werk-Brau haveaddressed the concerns of land owners andoffered not only their assistance inresearch, but also provided some muchneeded help. The companies workedtogether to come up with the combinationof a Komatsu excavator and the Werk-Braugrubber/extractor in the Kirby-Smith rentalfleet to develop a solution for removing themesquite/cedar infestation in an efficientmanner. In some confined areas, grindingand mulching is a solution, dozers and rootplows are also used but that process typi-cally requires complete restoration withreseeding. When it comes to hundreds ofacres with select extraction of the mesquiteand cedars the Komatsu/Werk-Brau solu-tion is more efficient with less soil damage.

State Route 710, a thoroughfare heavily usedby commuters and trucks hauling goods from

the nation’s busiest port complex, runs 23 mi.from Long Beach to an abrupt end just east ofLos Angeles.

From there, tens of thousands of vehicles aday spill onto Alhambra city streets to reachother freeways.

The 4.5 mi. gap between the end of the 710and Interstate 210 in Pasadena is a startlingdeviation from the rule that freeways are kingin California.

IROCK Names Warren CATNew Dealer for Okla., Texas

IROCK Crushers recently named WarrenCAT as its new dealer serving Oklahomaand Texas. According to IROCK GeneralManager, Bob Nelson, with 22 facilitieslocated throughout its CAT territory, WarrenCAT is well positioned to provide the kind ofequipment and product support that IROCKcustomers depend on.

Warren CAT is the second CAT dealer totake on the IROCK Crushing equipmentline.

“CAT dealers make good partnersbecause their sales and service models arecomplimentary to IROCK’s approach,” saidNelson. He added that IROCK’s use of CATpower means that Warren CAT is suited withthe expertise needed to service IROCKmachines and with a full inventory of wearparts, they’re well equipped.

“Our passion for this business and respectfor our customers leads us to continuallylook for ways to find “total solutions” for ourcustomers. The IROCK crushers give usanother way to be the dealership of choicefor our valued customers,” said Warren CATRock Crushing and Paving Specialist BillReinier.

For Warren CAT, the addition of IROCKcrushing equipment is an opportunity to

offer solutions to an even wider range of job-site requirements for their existing customersand new prospects. As the addition ofIROCK crushing and screening equipmentis Warren CAT’s first venture into aggregateprocessing equipment, IROCK provided aninitial sales and service course and it plans toconduct a follow up course in a few monthsas well.

IROCK Sales Manager Sean Donaghymade joint sales calls for Warren CAT’s ini-tial sales drive, and according to Donaghy,“They did a nice job of hitting the groundrunning right out of the gate.” He added thatits first two sales were to long time cus-tomers of Warren CAT.

Nelson explained the addition of WarrenCAT to their dealer network coincided withthe introduction of the online parts order fea-ture of their Web site which gives IROCKcustomers access to ordering 24 hours a day.IROCK customers can speak with a techsupport person by phone until 9 p.m. ESTthroughout the work week.

“Our approach is to provide IROCK cus-tomers with a top quality product combinedwith a level of support to match,” saidNelson.

Vince Lombardi knew a thing or two about competing and winning. The legendary football coach noted that everyone in the race runs, but only one wins. So he summarized his philosophy in three small words — run to win. It was a sound idea then. And it is one that Topcon has philosophically — and literally — taken and run with today. Take Topcon’s 3D-MC2 technology. Promoted as fastest in the industry. Most precise. Most productive. Most efficient. Saying it is one thing … but how do you prove it? The answer: you line the system up head-to-head against its main competitor…and let the results speak for themselves. That’s exactly what Topcon did at its May Technology Road Show in Livermore, California. Topcon placed its industry-leading 3D-MC2 system — operating on a John Deere 750 dozer — up against a Trimble GCS 900 system operating on a CAT D-6 dozer. “Our biggest challenge is how to convey just how great the system is,” said Tony Vanneman, Topcon construction products

marketing manager. “Telling people is one thing. But we wanted them to be able to see it, feel it and experience it. “The Topcon 3D-MC2 outperformed the Trimble GCS 900 system operating at twice the speed and accuracy of the competition. “Everything we do is geared toward helping our customers understand for themselves,” he continued. “What differences does the system deliver? What level of production gains does it deliver? What level of accuracy does it deliver? And how much money can customers make by using the right machine control system on their earth moving equipment?” That kind of bottom-line focus is imperative in today’s challenging economic climate, Vanneman said. “Lots of contractors are

finding themselves in one of two positions. Either they have some work and need to squeeze every bit of profit they can out of it. Or they don’t have enough — or any — work and they’ve got to change their approach and business process to compete more effectively for the work that is out there. The 3D-MC2 system is a tremendous tool in both of those situations.” Vanneman explained, “When you enable a contractor to get on grade and move that material where it needs to be moved in fewer passes, good things happen. You use fewer man hours. You use less fuel. There’s less wear and tear on your equipment. And that translates to lower operating expense.” Tom King, Topcon California area manager, agreed. “I brought several customers who own the Trimble system. Some of them have been operating heavy equipment for 30-40 years. They got off the equipment using 3D-MC2 equipment grinning ear-to-ear. They were in utter awe as to how it performed.” King worked for Trimble for 13 years before joining Topcon. “Some of the people I invited

had purchased Trimble systems. We put ‘em on the 3D-MC2 system to let them see and experience the difference for themselves. They could not believe how smooth it performed and how well it reacted in the vertical curve.” John Benetti is sales manager for Pape Machinery, which provided the John Deere dozer on which the 3D-MC2 system performed. He noted: “Competition in the earth moving machinery market segment is unprecedented. As a result, we are constantly looking for ways to set our machines apart from the other folks out there — a feature or functionality that makes John Deere look good. That’s what the Topcon system does for us. It unquestionably enhances the production, performance and ease of operation of the John Deere dozer. “Customers are still talking about it,” Benetti continued. “As they lay out their upcoming purchasing decisions, it definitely elevated Topcon in their decision making process. And from our standpoint, it also allowed our machine to stand out and really differentiated us in the marketplace.” The technology road shows also provide customers additional, important benefits, Vanneman said. “They are treated to a presentation that explains how our core systems and technology operate, and how they represent the very latest in technological advances. Most importantly, we relate how all that can provide them an advantage in a very competitive marketplace. “We also spend time on what’s happening right now within the industry,” Vanneman continued. “And we take a look at what’s coming down the road – exploring and explaining the universal trends that will affect everyone’s lives in the dirt moving business.” But clearly, the opportunity to operate the Topcon system alongside its competitorand compare the results was the highlightof the day.”

The race is on! -- Topcon’s 3D-MC2 machine control technology leaves the competition behind!

‘Sandhogs’Take to Tunnels for Historic, Massive Projectmillion people will have an insurance policyagainst failure of two older subterraneanwater lines.

“This project represents one of the mostsignificant investments in the future of thecity’s drinking water system,” said CasHolloway, the city’s environmental protec-tion commissioner. His remarks came inMay at the conclusion of the paving phase ofTunnel 3 under Manhattan. The final phaseinvolves installation of piping, mechanicaland electrical systems, a process that won’tbe completed until sometime in 2013 andwill cost another $176 million.

As construction projects go, Tunnel 3 isone of the more curious in engineeringannals. For the most part it has been ongoingfor decades almost completely out of sight ofmillions of people living within a few hun-dred feet of it. Other ongoing undergroundNYC construction projects – including masstransit ventures like the East Side access andSecond Avenue subway – are significant, butthey don’t measure up, or down, to Tunnel 3.

Tunnel 3 is incomparable in terms of itsduration through six city administrations, itsmassive cost – the Manhattan tunnelingphase alone cost $680 million – and itsdemanding logistics, requiring hardhat laborat depths of 400 to 800 ft. (121 to 242 m)for miles and miles on end.

It’s All About Water “We can live without a lot of things, water

is not one of them,” Mayor MichaelBloomberg has said in backing the tunnelproject. The mayor alluded to the city’sresponsibility to furnish some 1.5 billion gal.

of water each day to 9 million NYC metro-politan area residents for drinking, cookingand bathing. Almost as important, the wateris a necessity for firefighting.

City fathers found all this to be true in the19th century when a series of epidemicsstemming from bad water ran through thecity and then a devastating fire struck it.Consequently, a series of aqueducts fromupstate New York were dug to supply greatervolumes of water to the city from watershedsas far as 125 mi. (200 km) away.

Then early in the 20th century, two tun-nels were created to disperse the gravity-fedwater to the five city boroughs.

Tunnel 1 was completed in 1917 andTunnel 2 in 1936. They were constructedpainstakingly — literally, with some tunnel-ing workers dying from the “bends” as aconsequence of their work in undergroundpressurized caissons. Their work was not invain, however, for the two tunnels have beenan unqualified success.

That’s the problem: They are indispensa-ble. They have never been out of service –and need to be. Like any other infrastructure,the rub of constant utilization erodes anddebilitates surfaces and wears out mechani-cal and electrical systems. Construction ofTunnel 3 will let water be diverted from

Tunnels 1 and then 2 so that much-neededinspection and repair of the two older tunnelswill be possible.

Mayor Bloomberg has among otherdegrees a bachelor of engineering from JohnS. Hopkins University. He made completionof the tunnel a city funding priority.

“I looked at our water tunnels and, in thepast six years we have dedicated moremoney in this area than did the previous fiveadministrations combined,” he told an inter-viewer for Leaders Magazine in 2008. “Athird tunnel will give us redundancy andmore capacity and because of the way it’sdesigned, it will let us turn off each of thetwo old ones, which nobody has looked atbefore. We’re afraid to turn them off becausewe think we may not be able to turn themback on, and there’s a worry that withoutwater in them, they will collapse.”

While there is as yet no repair schedule,Tunnel 1 will be the first one drained andscrutinized. It is the oldest and most vital ofthe two. The city’s Department ofEnvironmental Protection, which managesthe New York City water supply, will sendinspectors into the tunnels for a meticulousassessment of tunnel walls and valves.

When Tunnel 3 is completely functioningand inspection of the other two tunnels pro-ceeds, the water will flow unabated.Everything is tied to keeping the water con-stantly moving – hundreds of millions ofgallons a day – from one tunnel or another,up through vertical shafts spaced periodical-ly along the way, into 7,000 mi. (11,200 km)of water mains and finally into lines servinghomes and commercial buildings.

Sandhogs Continue Burrowing Under New York CityBuilding the Tunnel

Construction of Tunnel 3 involved a vari-ety of general contractors through the years,but it utilized the same union of craftspeoplewho gave the city the Holland and Lincolntunnels and mile upon mile of functioningsubway and sewer tunnels. They are mem-bers of Laborers Local Union No. 147,affectionately called “Sandhogs.” The namecame from their first job rooting around insand during construction of footings for theBrooklyn Bridge.

They are categorized as miners – urbanminers – because they often dig through sub-terranean rock and soil. They differ fromother miners in that their tunneling is the pur-pose of their labor. But as in other miningwork, it can be dangerous: 24 people havedied in the course of Tunnel 3’s construction,though none in recent years.

Regardless of the dangers involved, insome NYC families Sandhogs go back forseveral generations. It is a testament to theunique appeal of the work, toLocal 147’s attractive wages andto the pride that comes from layingthe foundation, almost literally, formany of the monumental commer-cial and infrastructure projects inthe city. At the height of work onTunnel 3, some 350 Sandhogs andauxiliary workers worked theirway through their subterraneanpassage behind a massive 450-ton(408 t) boring machine – loweredinto the tunnel and then assembled– that chewed up bedrock at anaverage rate of 80 linear ft. (25 m)a day. The machine’s rotating frontedge has 27 cutting blades thatchip away at the solid rock foundat that depth.

The chipped debris is automatically con-veyed to the rear where it is loaded into railcars and hauled to an outlet shaft.

This boring process — which was com-pleted in Tunnel 3 in 2006 — replaced thetraditional method of drilling holes forexplosives, detonating them and clearingaway whatever was blown loose.

The boring machine removed from thepath of Tunnel 3 approximately 82 millioncu. ft. (2.5 million cu m) of rock, all ofwhich was crushed and sent to the surfacefor utilization on many other constructionprojects. City public affairs specialists com-pute the volume of debris to be the equiva-lent of rock filling the Empire State Buildingand the new Yankee Stadium.

Tunnel 3 meanders underground for about60 mi. (96 km), beginning at HillviewReservoir on the north edge of the city prop-er. The first stage of the tunnel parallelsTunnel 1 for much of its length down

through the Bronx before jogging west andrunning half the length of Manhattan, thenturning east to continue under the East Riverinto Queens and Brooklyn. This 13-mi. (21-km) leg of the tunnel, costing $1 billion, wasplaced in service in 1998.

The second stage of the tunnel runsalmost another 11 mi. (18 km), cutting deep-er into Queens and then turning south to slicethrough Brooklyn. Concrete lining of thatportion of the tunnel was completed in 2001.The final stage of the tunnel juts off from thefirst leg in Mid-Manhattan and runs on intoLower Manhattan, with two fingers of itcurling around northward before dead-end-ing. The average depth of the Manhattan legis 540 ft. (164 m).

Water Pipes and ValvesTunneling through rock is just half the

job. Water for city residents doesn’t actuallyrush through the exposed bedrock. Rather, a

cylinder of concrete is con-structed inside the tunnel sothat engineers can more uni-formly contain the flow of thewater and maintain its sterility.Consequently, the urban minersdon’t just tunnel, they build,and now have completed theconcrete work in the tunnel.

They used some 500 ft. (152ms) of collapsible cylindricalsteel forms to shape the piping,which ranges in diameter from

24 ft. (7.3 m) to 10 ft. (300 cm), the pipe nar-rowing as it progresses. They would pourone section, then a second section, beforebreaking down the first section and leapfrog-ging it ahead of the second section to repeatthe process. On average, about 145 linear ft.(44 m) of concrete pipe was poured daily.

The concrete work was both exacting andtedious. With the pressure of 14 in. (36 cm)of concrete bearing down on the forms inwhich the men work, it also can be danger-ous. How the concrete was handled evolvedas the project moved along. In the first twostages of tunnel construction, concrete waspremixed and piped down to the tunnel floorwhere it was remixed and hosed into thecylindrical forms. On the final Manhattanleg of the tunnel, however, the concrete waspumped directly from above onto the forms.

How much concrete did the tunnel con-sume? Engineers said the entire Tunnel 3project required about 30 million cu. ft.

(900,000 cu m) — enough to fill up 80 per-cent of the Empire State Building.

Vertical shafts, which feed the waterupward to the city’s water mains, were boredusing a raise bore method in which the bor-ing machine is pulled upward through a pilotshaft, with the debris falling down into thetunnel for removal. For reasons of pressure,the shafts widen as they come closer to thesurface. The Manhattan stretch of the tunnelhas 10 of these shafts.

The flow of the water in the tunnels willbe regulated using valve chambers, whichalso are carved out deep underground in thepath of the pipes. The rooms are boxy, con-crete facilities measuring about 40 ft. (13 m)in width and height. Numerous stainlesssteel valves and flow meters are set up in thechambers and electronically monitored andcontrolled. Engineers can regulate flow anddivert the water as required for maintenanceor emergency situations.

The largest of the chambers is more than600 ft. (182 m) long.

The probable final stage of water supplytunneling is a 16-mi. (26-km) segment run-ning from a reservoir in Westchester Countyto a valve chamber in the Bronx. It wouldgive the system more pressure and an addi-tional water aqueduct to the city. One moretunnel feeding water into additional areas ofthe Bronx and Queens is possible.

The entire tunneling project is expected tobe complete by 2020.

Kirby-Smith, Werk-Brau Combine Forces to Rejuvenate Landwest Texas near Paduca. Ward had 180 acreson the ranch infested with mesquite and saltcedars, basically rendering the land useless.Burrell explained the benefits of theKomatsu PC200 LC-8 excavator combinedwith the Werk-Brau EZ-V grubber/extractoras an effective combination to not onlyremove the mesquite and cedar trees, butalso the root ball. A single mesquite root leftin the ground has the capabilities of propa-gating and starting a whole new plant.

“Since the Natural ResourcesConservation Service (NRCS) had specifieda 9 to 18 inch below surface extraction tomake sure the root ball was eliminated, Ipointed out that the EZ-V grubber/extractorwith its V-bottom design was much moreefficient than a straight edge grubber,” saidBurrell. “Werk-Brau uses AR400 steel forthe cutting edges and with the triple passwelds on the high stress areas, the EZ-V wasthe perfect attachment for PC 200 LC-8.”

The Komatsu/Werk-Brau package wasrented for a little over six weeks and, accord-ing to Ward, was able to clear five acres perday with approximately 135 trees per acre.

“The acreage was classified by the NRCSas 93 percent coverage, yet the PC 200 LC-8 and the EZ-V went through it with noproblems,” said Ward. “The State of Texas

requires no permits for this type of vegeta-tion clearing, but since the EZ-V grubberwas to penetrate the soil 9 to 18 inches, wedid check with the local utility companies tomake sure there were no obstructions beforewe started grubbing.

“I was most pleased with the performanceof the package and if nec-essary, I will rent the PC200 LC-8 and the EZ-Vgrubber/extractor again. Ihave offered to hand outBurrell’s business cardsto my other ranch neigh-bors that have the sameproblem we had on theJohn E. Fish ranch.”

Since most statesencourage brush manage-ment, Ward is workingwith the NRCS and theEnvironment QualityIncentives Program(EQIP) for financialassistance with this proj-ect.

The main reasons forbrush management(mesquite and cedar) is torestore degraded range-land, improve the cattle

and wildlife habitat, increase plant diversityand overall improve of hydrologic functionof the range land to make it more productive.Mesquites especially, have a tendency tosend out enormous root system that soak upas much water as possible and deprive other,more beneficial vegetation. The government

normally requires no permits for brushremoval, except in some metropolitan areaswhere there may be regulation codes.

With millions of acres in jeopardy inTexas, Oklahoma and other surroundingstates, there are multiple governmental sub-sidy programs available to address the situa-

tion. Instead of simplyburning the trees androots, there are organiza-tions that are trying tofind more profitable usesfor the by products. Boththe mesquite and cedarshave extraneous usesranging from furnituremanufacturing tobiodegradable fuels andthe every famousmesquite smoked meatproducts. The reduc-tion/eradication of thecedars will also help mil-lions of people that sufferfrom cedar pollen drivenasthma attacks.

Volvo Poised to Introduce FMX Truck to Global MarketVolvo Trucks is launching the Volvo FMX. Built specifi-

cally for heavy construction tasks, this truck will be availableon European markets in September, followed by a globalrollout during the rest of the year.

“We are extremely proud of this truck and can hardly waitto see it at work for our construction customers,” said StaffanJufors, president and CEO, Volvo Trucks. “With the newVolvo FMX, we are truly breaking new ground for us andour customers’ operations.”

Rugged Look for a Rugged Truck

The most obvious change with thenew, high-clearance Volvo FMX is itsrobust, modern exterior. The FMXhas a new upper grill, aggressivelower front, 3-part steel bumper with.1 in. (3 mm) thick steel corners,rugged skid plate and protective bullbar. For additional functionality, theVolvo FMX also features a powerfultow hook, headlamp mesh protection,new anti-slip steps and a convenientladder.

“Aquick glance at this truck and itspowerful stance immediately revealsthe close connection between VolvoTrucks and our sister-company, VolvoConstruction Equipment — amongthe world leaders in dumpers, excava-tors and wheel-loaders,” said Jufors.“The new Volvo FMX literallybreathes construction — reflecting itscapabilities, inside and out.”

Designed for Driveline Performance

The new Volvo FMX is based onthe FM platform. The recently updat-ed construction version of the I-Shiftgearbox makes it possible to “rockfree” from almost any situation. Inaddition, a new load sensor sends pre-cise load weight information to I-Shift for an optimal gearsequence and smooth gear start, according to the manufac-turer. Massive braking power, 506 hp (375 kW) at 2,300rpm, is provided by Volvo Engine Brake Plus.

‘The Perfect Construction Truck’“This is the perfect construction truck — and our cus-

tomers have largely driven its development,” said Jufors.“With all the improvements in the Volvo FMX, combined

with the development of a strong service offering for theconstruction business, we hope that our existing customerswill become even more satisfied. We also have high expec-tations that this new truck and our unique total offer for theconstruction segment will attract many new customers.”

New Features on the Volvo FMX• New upper grill, inspired by the FH series, contributes

to a modern look. The Volvo iron mark is larger and more

visible, while the FMX globe sign makes a bold statement. • New central towing device offers robust and reliable

Doosan MT41 Truck Combines Power, Stability, TractionThe Doosan Moxy

MT41 articulated dumptruck offers high horsepow-er per ton of loaded weight,a free-swinging rear tan-dem bogie and a specialarticulation system for out-standing productivity anddriving performance.

The MT41 is powered bya Tier III compliant, 444-hp(331 kW) Scania dieselengine that provides apower-to-weight ratio of6.38 hp (4.7 kW) per ton. Ithas a payload capacity of82,010 lbs. (37,199 kg).

The turning ring on theMT41 is located in front ofthe articulation joint, ensur-ing equal weight distribu-tion to the front wheels atall times, even in maximum turns. Thisresults in easier steering and less front tirewear. The MT41 also features independentfront-wheel suspension for better tractionand superior operator comfort.

Permanent 6-wheel drive provides trac-tion in rough terrain. The free-swingingrear tandem bogie allows the rear wheels to

maintain ground contact at all times. Onlyone differential lock/limited slip differen-tial is required on the rear axles, resultingin less driveline and tire wear.

The sloping body ensures a low centerof gravity and excellent weight distribu-tion, further enhancing the stability of theMT41 and providing fast and easy tipping

for increased productivity, according to themanufacturer.

A fully automatic transmission providessix forward speeds and three reverse. Topspeed is 32.9 mph (53 kmh) in high rangeand 21.1 mph (34 kmh) in low range.

Wet disk brakes provide more efficientbraking under load, even in very adverse

conditions such as deepmud and water. Becausethey are fully encased in oil,brake discs also last longer,reducing maintenancecosts.

The comfortable, air-conditioned cabin featuresan air suspension seat, lownoise and vibration levelsand enhanced visibility, dueto the sloping front hood.The “tip-tronic” gearshiftallows the operator to runthe truck in both automaticand manual gears for thesmoothest possible gear-shifts and momentum.

The wide-opening hoodof the MT41 providesaccess to the engine foreasy maintenance. In addi-

tion, the cabin tilts for access to the trans-mission and hydraulic components.Because all electrical and air conditioningconnections are at the rear of the cabin,they do not need to be disconnected inorder to tilt the cabin.

Price Tag of California’s ‘Big Dig’ Rises to $10 BillionFor a half-century, activists in tiny South

Pasadena have fought successfully againstproposals to close the gap — a project thatwould split their quiet city of tree-linedneighborhoods.

Now, they’re preparing for the next fight,as the Los Angeles County MetropolitanTransportation Authority board considerswhether to pursue the concept of digging atunnel to close the missing link in theregion’s freeway network.

At least one board member thinks the tun-nel is a pipe dream that invokes images ofBoston’s troubled Big Dig.

“It’s construction on a massive scale, big-ger than the Big Dig and will cost upward of$10 billion,” said Ara Najarian, the boardpresident. “It’ll encourage people to get intotheir single-occupant vehicle and drivearound L.A. when what we need are smartsolutions and sustainable modes of transit.”

Freeway supporter Barbara Messina, amember of the City Council in Alhambra,said it’s time to complete the project becausethe gap is hurting the effectiveness of theregional freeway system.

“This gap was never intended to be per-manent,” she said. “It’s just a sin that this hasbeen stalled this long.”

The route of the 710 freeway was first

mapped out in 1951 as part of a massivehighway construction program that trans-formed California after World War II. Buttwo decades later, then-Gov. Jerry Brown’sdecision to limit spending on highway con-struction put completion of the 710 on hold.

In the intervening years, South Pasadenaactivists stalled further construction by chal-lenging environmental impact reportsand winning court injunctions. Thefierce opposition led the FederalHighway Administration in 2003 torescind its support of a surface route.

As a result, regional transportationplanners began looking into the possi-bility of a tunnel that would take the710 under South Pasadena, a 3.5 sq.mi. city with approximately 26,000residents.

Last year, the CaliforniaDepartment of Transportation con-ducted exploratory drilling in fivezones and determined through a geo-logical study that building a freewaytunnel 200 ft. below ground in any of thezones was feasible. The study took intoaccount seismic activity, soil conditions andthe presence of hazardous materials.

Now, planners are recommending that theMTA consider further environmental studyof a 4.5- to 5-mi. tunnel running directly

north from the freeway’s current terminus toInterstate 210.

The study would look into the environ-mental effects of a tunnel along with othertransportation options such as rail to dealwith congestion caused by the freeway gap.The board also could kill the tunnel ideaaltogether.

Najarian, the board president, said he’dlike to see further studies of the cost of thetunnel and the environmental impact ofemissions from vehicles using it, amongother things.

“It’s inappropriate to take any actionunless these very basic bits of information

are presented to the decision-makers and thepublic so we can have an honest and healthydebate on this project,” Najarian said.

Tunnel advocates are floating the idea ofinviting private investors to put up billions ofdollars to build it, and charge drivers a toll.

Further study would be funded by someof the $780 million set aside by a Los

Angeles County transportation salestax measure approved by voters in2008 to deal with the problem.

But even that allocation is being dis-puted in a lawsuit by the cities of SouthPasadena and La Canada Flintridge,which is located along Interstate 210and likely to see more traffic if the 710is completed.

To Joanne Nuckols, a SouthPasadena resident and longtime free-way fighter, the tunnel proposal bringsto mind Boston’s Big Dig project over-runs and shoddy construction.

That project to replace an elevatedhighway in the heart of the city with a

series of tunnels, ramps and bridges wasbudgeted at $3 billion but wound up costing$15 billion.

“We know that engineers can build a tun-nel almost anywhere, but is it worth it finan-cially?” she said. “We can build a bridge tothe moon, but should we do it?”

Miller Electric Mfg. Co. has introducedtwo Electronic Fuel Injected (EFI) engine-driven twin-cylinder welder generators:The Trailblazer 302 EFI and the Bobcat250 EFI. Replacing the carburetor withEFI improves fuel economy up to 27 per-cent, reduces harmful emissions up to 33percent and eliminates carburetor icing,according to the manufacturer.

Miller also increased the weld outputand generator power (12,000 peak/10,500continuous watts) on both machines to pro-vide contractors a green, cost-efficientmachine with improved performance overcarburetor-based models.

Replacing carburetors with EFI reduceshydrocarbon (HC) and nitrogen oxide(NOx) emissions by 33 percent and carbonmonoxide (CO) emissions by 27 percentwhile also saving as much as $1,000/year(assuming 25 gallons per week at $3 pergallon) in fuel costs, according to the man-ufacturer.

Higher Welding OutputThe Trailblazer 302 EFI and Bobcat 250

EFI are both true multi-process machinesthat provide strong Stick, MIG, flux cored,AC/DC TIG and gouging capabilities. TheTrailblazer 302 welds 280 amps at 100-percent duty cycle (300 amps/wire weld-ing); The Bobcat 250 welds 250 amps at100-percent duty cycle (275 amps for wirewelding). Running Miller welders offeither machine’s generator power furthertransforms these engine drives into power-ful multi-arc systems that increase produc-tivity while lowering fuel use and cost-per-arc ownership, according to the manufac-turer.

All rated outputs are tested at 104F(40C) for optimal performance and integri-ty. Both machines feature a protectivearmor similar to that used in automotivebumpers and tractor hoods. This offershigh-impact resistance in all temperaturesand is chemical resistant. EFI eliminatescarburetor icing and ensures easy startingand optimal performance in all climates.

Fences Could Keep TurtlesFrom Crossing Texas RoadBy Allan TurnerHOUSTON CHRONICLE

WOODVILLE, Texas (AP) With narrowlanes and soft, weedy shoulders droppingsteeply to the water, U.S. 190’s SteinhagenLake crossing is bound to send an adrenalinejolt through all but the most blase motorists.

The roadside shards of exploded tiresspeak of danger as eloquently as a skullbeside a desert waterhole.

But the very conditions that make a driversnap to attention and ease up on the gas are amagnet for fresh-water turtles who, oblivi-ous to the danger, die beneath the wheels ofthousands of cars and trucks that poundacross the causeway each day.

So great has been the mortality of femaleturtles, who are drawn to the causeway to layeggs, said Houston Zoo ConservationPrograms Manager Rachel Rommel, that thefuture of the lake’s turtle population may bein jeopardy. A drop in the Steinhagen’s turtlepopulation, she said, might pose seriousthreats to the lake's overall health.

Monthly surveys taken during the turtles’spring and summer nesting season indicatethe 2-mi. stretch of road is among the topfive deadliest spots for turtles in NorthAmerica. Since the summer of 2008, zooworkers under Rommel's direction havefound the remains of 635 turtles.

Rommel conceded that the condition ofthe Steinhagen’s turtle population isunknown but said natural predation, thelarge-scale harvesting of freshwater turtlesfor export to China — a practice banned inTexas public waters in 2007 — and the rep-tile’s slow sexual maturation make the road-way losses a matter of significant concern.

Based on the survey, zoo officials havepetitioned the Texas Department ofTransportation to erect low fences, or takeother actions, to keep the turtles from cross-ing the road. Transportation agency biologistStirling Robertson said TxDOT officials,aided by state and federal wildlife experts,are reviewing the issue.

“We don’t have a lot of experience indealing with this kind of problem,” he said,while noting that his agency has elsewhereinstalled fences and culverts to protect theendangered Houston toad. Rommel said afence and culvert program in Lake Jackson,Fla., the continent's deadliest turtle road killspot, reduced mortality from about 10 turtlesper kilometer per day to less than one.

Rommel became aware of the SteinhagenLake turtle deaths in spring 2008 whilecamping at Martin Dies Jr. State Park at thecauseway's eastern end.

En route to a nearby grocery, she spottedan injured turtle near the road.

“She was still alive. I patched her backtogether,” Rommel said.

Now on the alert, she counted 35 deadreptiles on or near the roadway as shereturned to her camp. Rommel’s reports onturtle carnage launched the zoo’s annual sur-veys. Almost all the dead turtles, she said, arefemale — apparently drawn to the causewayto lay eggs.

The soft, sandy soil retains heat and isclose to aquatic plants, which may make theroad's shoulders an appealing spot to nest,Rommel said. Dead turtles almost alwaysare red-eared sliders or Missouri River coot-ers, which can grow to near dinner-plate sizeand live for decades. Rommel said femalesof these species can lay as many as 20 leath-ery eggs up to three times per nesting season,usually late spring through August.

The zoo team surveys the SteinhagenLake site once monthly through October.

As vehicles sped past at seemingly breath-taking speeds, Rommel and three colleagueslast week scoured both sides of U.S. 190 insearch of dead turtles.

With each find, they recorded species andsex and noted its location with a global posi-tioning system. When only shell fragmentswere found, they labeled the find an“unknown.” After logging the data, the rep-tiles were tossed into the lake.

The August survey found 98 dead turtlesas well as snakes, raccoons and an alligator.

“It’s a sad thing,” Rommel said. “Afterdisposing of turtle after turtle, you have toshut off your emotional response and get thejob done.”

Whether eating or eaten, turtles are a keyelement in the lake's ecosystem, the health ofwhich is vital to the area's water-based recre-ation industry, Rommel said. And eventhough neither red-eared sliders norMissouri River cooters are protected species,a skewed ratio of males to females couldmean trouble in years to come.

TxDOT’s Robertson hinted that the effortto save turtles might draw opposition fromTexans who think highway dollars shouldtarget more traditional projects. And, henoted, while turtle fences or culverts mightbe cheap to put up, the state would then haveto maintain them. Still, he said, keeping tur-tles from crossing U.S. 190 might be war-ranted in terms of highway safety.

“If a shell punctures a tire, a motoristcould get in big trouble,” Robertson said.“It’s a very narrow elevated roadway, andyou don’t have a lot of options. You go intoa tree or into the lake.”

John Deere Reports Its ThirdQuarter Profit Up 47 PercentBy Josh FunkAP BUSINESS WRITER

OMAHA, Nebraska (AP) Deere & Co.said Aug. 18 its third-quarter profit grew 47percent with American and Canadian farm-ers buying enough of the company’s largeequipment to offset a sharp downturn inEurope.

The company reported $617 million netincome, or $1.44 per share, in the quarterthat ended July 31. That’s up from $420 mil-lion, or 99 cents per share, a year ago.

Deere said global revenue spiked 16 per-cent to $6.84 billion.

Agricultural equipment sales in the U.S.and Canadian markets increased 19 percentin the quarter. Sales in other markets rose 16percent, but that figure masks the Europeanweakness.

“While we have benefited from positiveconditions in the U.S. farm sector, particu-larly in terms of demand for large equip-ment, European markets are down sharply,”

Deere’s chairman and CEO Samuel Allensaid in a statement.

Overall, Deere’s agricultural and turfequipment sales grew 12 percent to $5.2 bil-lion from last year's $4.7 billion.

Demand for construction and forestryequipment has improved from last year, butDeere said it remains well below normal.Quarterly sales for that division jumped 59percent to just over $1 billion from $632 mil-lion a year ago.

The quarterly results from the maker oficonic green-and-yellow farm and construc-tion equipment easily beat Wall Streetexpectations. On average, analysts expectedearnings per share of $1.24 on $6.52 billionrevenue.

The company said it now expects its salesto grow about 12 percent in fiscal 2010. Thatprediction is in line with the 11 percent to 13percent range Deere offered in May.

Deere also said it expects fourth-quarternet income to increase about 32 percent overlast year to $375 million.
