We’re Celebrating Public Works! The 2016 National Public Works Week poster focuses on the pervasiveness of public works. The community depends on the men and women of public works who are always there and always ready. This idea is reflected in the theme “Public Works Always There.”

Join us in celebrating the tens of thousands of women and men in North America who provide and maintain the infrastructure and services collectively known as public works.

Visit our website at apwa.net/npww for great ideas on how to celebrate National Public Works Week in your community this year. Share your experiences on social media using the hashtag #NPWW.

Primarily, the function of the algae technology is to clean the flue gas with the additional benefits of producing algae with a market potential of $18- $40/pound, depending on the algae and the market. In addition to algae, oxygen can also be produced for market or utilized in the aerobic digesters in another wastewater treatment facility operated by the City. In addition to the CHP facility at Back River, in March of 2012 a 1 MW solar field also began operation. The combined production of the solar and biomass CHP facilities represents approximately 18% of the

The goal of this reduces labor costs for pruning and sustainable landscaping is to create transportation of green-waste to landfills. If properly maintained, the landscapes can easily use less than one-half the water of a traditional landscape.

Lawn conversions save money. There are initial expenses; however, the cost in savings is worth the investment.

The Annual Buyer’s Guide is provided as a service by the American Public Works Association to its members to assist in identifying the corporate members that represent the consulting, service and manufacturing firms serving the public works industry today. It is by no means an attempt to list all of the firms serving the industry, only those that are APWA members as of February 22, 2016. The Annual Buyer’s Guide is not intended to provide endorsement of any particular products or services listed herein. The alphabetical listing appears first, followed by the categorical listing on page 79.

APWA makes every effort to achieve accuracy, but cannot be held responsible for inadvertent omissions or incorrect entries. If any errors are detected, please notify the Finance/Membership Department at (800) 848-APWA.

APWA directors get “pied”

The directors before getting pied…

On February 25, the APWA headquarters staff sent our old office out with a whipped cream bang! Our charitable event began a week …and after! Directors getting pied are (from left to right) Diana Forbes, Mabel Tinjacá, Larry Frevert, Julie Bebermeyer, and Dave Dancy. earlier with each director selecting a charity for the rest of the staff to donate to. Each staffer selected a director’s jar to contribute to, and the director with the most donations would be announced as the proud winner of a pie in the face. Mabel Tinjacá received the most donations and the entire proceeds of over $500 were given to her charity, the Make a Wish Foundation. However, four other directors received pies in the face for good measure! A special thanks to all of the directors for being good sports and for participating in such a fun, charity-focused event that the staff really got behind.

104 APWA Reporter / April 2016 / www.apwa.net Our Volvo E-Series excavator has allowed us to do things that are just plain amazing. That’s our Ex Factor. – Jim Whitaker, fleet manager, Whitaker Construction

Whitaker Construction has more than 60 years’ experience in underground construction. As one of the largest utility contractors in their region, they have to operate with a cutting edge. Jim says the EC380E gives them that edge — working up to a 480 class size, while fitting in tighter spaces — allowing them to tackle challenging jobs with more efficiency.
