Newsletter 2013-51 December 20, 2013 AGC LEGISLATIVE PRIORITY PASSES CONGRESS On December 19, the Senate passed and the president will soon sign into law the National Defense Authorization Act of 2014 (NDAA), which includes a critical AGC-supported small business reform. The AGC-supported reform will allow prime contractors to count lower-tier small business contractors towards the prime contractor’s small business subcontracting goals. The current law only allows prime contractors to count first-tier small business subcontractors towards these goals. The simple change in this AGC-supported reform will encourage prime contractors to make sure small businesses have opportunities to compete for subcontracts at every tier, thereby allowing more opportunities for small business growth. In addition, it will help prevent first-tier small business “pass-through” situations and help provide transparency to the small business program. However, while the president will likely sign this change into law before the end of the year, the change itself will not be effective for at least 18 months after a rule making process occurs. And, as with any rule making process impacting your construction contracting business, AGC will proactively work with regulators to help ensure that contractors are not overburdened by the implementation process.

HOUSE APPROVES TWO-YEAR BUDGET DEAL - SENATE EXPECTED TO CONCUR This week, the House approved – by a vote of 332-94 – a two-year budget agreement that was negotiated by House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R.-Wis.) and Senate Budget Chairman Patty Murray (D-Wash.). The agreement sets overall levels for discretionary spending for fiscal years 2014 and 2015 and also partially mitigates the impact of the across-the-board sequestration cuts for both years. The Senate is expected to vote on the deal next week before adjourning. Specifically, the budget deal sets spending caps for 2014 and 2015 at $1.012 and $1.014 trillion, respectively. It also uses $85 billion in offsets to provide $63 billion in sequester relief and $23 billion in net deficit reduction. The next step in the process is for House Appropriations Chairman Hal Rogers (R-Ky.) and Senate Appropriations Chairman Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) to agree on how to divide the $1.012 trillion in discretionary budget authority for fiscal year 2014 amongst each of the twelve appropriations subcommittees. Each subcommittee will determine how their portion of the funds is to be distributed to different programs within its jurisdiction. These determinations will then become part of an omnibus FY14 appropriations law to be enacted by January 15. The transportation funding portion will likely maintain highway and transit funding at MAP-21 levels but discretionary programs like TIGER grants are expected to be cut or eliminated.

TRANSPORTATION DAY EXHIBITOR SPOTS STILL AVAILABLE West Virginians for Better Transportation (WVBT) will once again be hosting “Transportation Day at the State Capitol” on Thursday, January 9, 2014. Plan to join with others interested in the future of West Virginia’s transportation system and show support for a long-term solution for the state’s roads, bridges and highways. Members are urged to gather at the state Capitol, meet with local legislators and help educate lawmakers about the challenges facing transportation across the state. A limited number of exhibit spots will be available on the Senate Upper Rotunda area of the West Virginia Capitol as part of Transportation Day. There is no cost to exhibit, but pre-registration is required (these are available on a first-come, first reserve basis). A registration for is attached to this week’s Newsletter for those interested in attending or exhibiting. For additional information visit www.keepwvmoving.org or call the CAWV at (304) 342-1166. MEMBERS NEEDED TO PARTNER WITH LOCAL SCHOOLS ON ‘SIMULATED WORKPLACE’ The CAWV has partnered with the West Virginia Department of Education on a new initiative, “Simulated Workplace.” The new program is designed to set up workplace environments in several career and technical centers throughout the state that have a direct connection to the construction industry. Its vision is to transform students into work-ready employees. “The CAWV Board of Directors voted unanimously at our October meeting to become an active supporter of “Simulated Workplace,” said CAWV President Phil Weser, March-Westin Company, Morgantown. “CAWV members have expressed concern over finding qualified people to augment our retiring workforce. But first, we must get young people interested in a career in construction.” Members who participate will be asked to view a short on-line training session to learn how to use their expertise to rate the program and then spend one day at the school evaluating that school’s program. It would be good to have three to five members per school. Attached to this week’s Newsletter is a brochure on how members can become involved in Simulated Workplace, including a map showing which career and technical centers are participating and a form for members to sign up. To get more information, contact Pat McDonald at (304)342-1166 or [email protected]. CONTRACTORS CONTRIBUTE TO “CAN” HELP Fred Clark, IVS Group, Inc. has helped raise thousands of pounds of potatoes over the years for the Union Mission in conjunction with radio station WQBE, Kroger and other partners. This year, Fred’s challenge to area businesses was to collect 10,000 ten pound bags of potatoes and non-perishable food items to help with the holiday food distribution. The CAWV is pleased to announce that this goal was met. The Union Mission was provided with 10,100 bags of potatoes and 3,500 items of non-perishable food. The CAWV would like to thank members who made a difference this year to families in 19 counties throughout West Virginia.

CAWV ANNUAL REPORT SENT TO MEMBERS - AVAILABLE AT WWW.CAWV.ORG The 2013 CAWV Annual Report was mailed to members last week. The report outlines some of the key issues addressed by the association during the past year. Members can view the full report on the CAWV website. The report includes information on the association’s legislative issues, committee activities, accomplishments over the past year, and updates on the scholarship and association affinity programs. Below are the comments of CAWV President Phil Weser, March-Westin Company, Inc., which are included in the report: At the CAWV Annual Meeting in July, we learned the motivating factors of each generation. More importantly, we learned that understanding these motivating factors will improve production, sales, marketing, employee recruitment and retention.

The things that motivate our veteran employees are not going to resonate with our younger workforce. How we hire, train and reward our personnel will determine whether they will become the future leaders of our companies and our industry. But first, we must get young people interested in a career in construction. CAWV members have expressed concern over finding qualified people to augment their retiring workforce. Now, with recent announcements by Odebrecht on plans to build a cracker plant in Wood County and Carbonyx, Inc. to build a plant in Jackson County, we need to focus on replacing our current workers and preparing for the possibility that these developments will create thousands of construction and permanent jobs in spin-off industries for years to come. At the October Board of Directors meeting, board members learned that the West Virginia Department of Education has implemented a new initiative, “Simulated Workplace,” whose vision is to transform students into work-ready employees. In a Simulated Workplace, traditional classrooms are crafted to emulate company environments, practices and expectations. Students participate in actual business processes such as time clocks, drug testing, safety procedures and proper work ethic. An important goal of the program is to provide students with an understanding of all aspects of a business and how their success leads to the company’s profitability. The CAWV board voted unanimously for the association and our members to help make Simulated Workplace a success. Our role will be to evaluate the various construction career workplaces to determine whether or not the processes, environment and curriculum being delivered in the classroom will result in quality employees. This is our opportunity to assist in developing better training centers that will build our future workforce.I encourage all members to get involved with Simulated Workplace when contacted by the CAWV. At the July Annual Meeting, your Board of Directors voted to partner with the Community and Technical College System of West Virginia on their Bridging the Gap Consortium, whose mission is to expand and improve education and career training programs in construction and other high-skilled industries. The consortium, comprised of the 10 community and technical colleges in West Virginia, was just awarded a $25 million federal grant to encourage West Virginians to enroll, pursue and graduate from technical programs. The CAWV will be asking members to commit their time and expertise in helping to develop the curriculum and assisting with hands-on, real-world training in order to aid in developing a skilled workforce. The grant will also increase the technology that the colleges use in their programs. Advancing technology is what I would like the association to accomplish for current CAWV members. In the last twenty years we have seen dramatic improvements in and widespread use of technology in construction. Technology has become entwined into business, but it can be as much of a hurt as a help. During my year as president, I want the CAWV brings some clarity to the variety of technologies offered by the industry and how they can be an asset for a construction company. When we’re successful in bringing in the new generation of workers, they will understand the possibilities technology has and be able to get project information when and where they need it. Our current workers must understand that information technology may be the greatest driver of change in the building and construction industry. Mobile computing already is helping transform efficiency on the jobsite. Emerging technologies offer new solutions to the construction industry, improving our processes and changing the current ways we work. With the average contractor’s day consumed by cash flow management, margin protection, subcontractor oversight and competing for business, it can be difficult to set aside time to contemplate the future. In the coming year, the

CAWV will introduce an innovative continuing education curriculum. I’ve charged our Education Committee with developing a lineup of topics that will reach from the conference room to the field. No longer will members have to miss valuable training due to time or distance. The CAWV will teach technology with technology. Webinars and interactive sessions will be offered throughout 2014 on a variety of relevant topics, including Building Information Modeling (BIM). Live sessions will then be cataloged in an online member library that’s available 24/7. The future is an exciting one for our state, the CAWV, and its members. I encourage you to take full advantage of upcoming initiatives. With them, we’ll be better prepared in building a better West Virginia. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM THE CAWV The CAWV would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. The Association office will be closed on Tuesday and Wednesday, December 24 and 25, in observance of Christmas. We will also be closed Wednesday, January 1, in observance of New Year’s. There will be no Newsletter December 27, but project information and bid results will be distributed.

COLD WEATHER SAFETY

Summer and fall are gone and the winter months are upon us. Even though it's cold outside we still have to work and get the job done. There are several things we can do to keep warm and prevent cold weather related accidents.

The first thing we want to do is to keep our body temperature at or about normal, 98.6F. This can be accomplished by wearing layers of clothing both inside and outdoors. You should wear cotton or lightweight wool next to the skin and wool layers over your underwear. Keep dry by having proper rain gear available and a pair of good, waterproof boots. An extra pair of clean, dry socks can really come in handy. Don't forget to protect your neck and ears; you can lose a lot of heat from these two areas, and a good pair of gloves is essential.

Do you know the signs of frostbite? Your skin will become white and you won't have much circulation. In the worst case, blisters will form but you won't feel any pain. First aid for frostbite is as follows: NEVER rub the frozen part of the body with snow -- Add extra clothing or use a blanket to cover the frozen area -- get out of the cold and into a warm location -- the frozen area may be immersed in warm water but NEVER use hot water -- if the condition does not improve seek professional medical attention.

Another area of concern during cold weather is the use of portable heaters. If they are not maintained properly they can cause accidents. Carbon monoxide can result from defective ventilating and from incomplete fuel burn. All portable heaters should be checked by a competent person before being put into use. Locate fuel containers, regulators, piping and hose where they will not be subject to damage. LP gas containers not in use should be stored upright, in a specified outside location and protected against damage. Containers in use must be kept in an upright position and secured. Always be sure to protect the valves from physical damage.

Cold weather is here to stay for a few months -- keep your guard up against cold weather injury.

HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON!
