The grant is one of 4,000 avail- able to schools across the county, made possible by funding from the Exxon Mobil Corp., to enhance science and mathematics education. Ed Jennings, the station owner of the North Brunswick American Exxon at 686 Livingston Ave., applied for the grant for Linwood because he "sees all the bright and smiley faces going to school every day" as he passes the building on his way to work. The school is right around the corner from his shop, and his nieces and nephews were students there.

"We know in the past there have been people playing games. We know they are not paying their employees $50 an hour," said John Agugliaro of the Masons Local No. 2 Therefore, because the company can hire cheaper labor, they choose to employ nonunion workers, Agugliaro alleged. "Prestige Construction has no residents of North Brunswick working at all on these projects," he said. "We have local people here out of work, watching people come in and take their jobs." The other concerns lie in Prestige not complying" with standards set forth by the Department of Labor, according to Agugliaro. He said that Prestige has in- curred 22 Occupational Safety & Health Ad- ministration violations in the past five years, does not follow apprenticeship requirements and does not ensure Jbealth insurance and pension plans. Agugliaro said that Rampart was given a list of contractors in May but that "it fell on deaf ears." He also claimed that union work- ers "build to last" while the workers from Prestige "are not using quality construction" in regards to corners, scaffolding and cutting with dry saws. He said the real question is, "Do you know who's working on your children's schools?" Energy Efficient Lighting Costs Less. Yet Schools Superintendent Brian Zy- chowski said that no matter who is em- ployed, the district has inspectors, a construction management firm and archi- tects who perform quality checks during the entire process. He also said that other con- tractors working at the schools, such as elec- tricians and plumbers, are unionized. "We certainly understand their plea but unfortunately there is not much as a super- intendent coming in that I can do. Once the specs are written up, the general contractor can use a subcontractor who pays nonpre- vailing wage. I can't change that.
