Elementary Schools L-W
North Kansas City Schools serves more than 18,500 students in more than 30 building locations. Twenty-one of those are elementary schools of which all are K-5 buildings with the exception of Gashland Elementary and Clardy Elementary, which split their enrollment. Gashland has grades Kindergarten through 1st grade while Clardy has grades 2nd through 5th.
The most recent elementary school, Bell Prairie Elementary, was the first elementary school in the state to be awarded LEED GOLD status. LEED, which stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, Green Building Rating System™ is a third party certification program and the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings.
The Green Building Certification Institute certified Bell Prairie Elementary, 3000 N.E. 108th Street, a U.S. Green Building Council LEED Gold facility. Bell Prairie Elementary School earned LEED Gold in December, scoring three historic firsts for “green” facilities in Missouri. Bell Prairie is the —
1) FIRST elementary in Missouri to be LEED certified
2) FIRST elementary in Missouri to be certified LEED Gold
3) FIRST K-12 educational facility in the state of Missouri to earn LEED Gold.
It’s also the second K-12 educational facility in the state of Missouri to earn LEED certification. (North Kansas City Schools Staley High School was the first.) Bell Prairie Elementary was designed by Hollis + Miller Architects and built by JE Dunn Construction Company.

Today we fitted the new gas struts, which didn't go 100% smoothly. With the help of our friend Al (doing the lifting) we first fitted the upright strut at each end, which we had to hammer on due to the bolts being slightly bent. We then realised that the horizontal one needed to be fitted first. So off came the vertical one and on went the horizontal one, and back on went the vertical one, again with hammering. Unfortunately the hammering knackered one of the bolts, so a quick trip to the hardware shop for a new bolt, and they were on.
We then tried closing the roof to see how it went, but the pressure of the horizontal strut tore the rivets of the roof hinge completely through the fiberglass. Bad times!
So the plan is to use nuts and bolts to affix a small piece of sheet metal, and rivet the hinge to the metal.
We have taken the horizontal strut off for now, and we may not put it back on, because it is only used to assist in the lifting of the roof. The two vertical struts are the ones that hold the roof up.
We then fitted the first piece of blue lining, which cheered us up.


Transport authorities in Guangdong have come up with toll proposals for the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge.
They plan to charge private cars 150 yuan, container trucks 115 yuan, and goods vehicles 60 yuan per trip.
A hearing on tolls will be held in Zhuhai later this month before the bridge opens for traffic.
The toll levels will be set according to mainland laws - as the main bridge is located within mainland waters and the toll plaza is situated across the border.
Transport sector lawmaker Frankie Yick called the toll proposals "reasonable":

The purpose of this data viewer is to provide City of Charleston decision makers with a preliminary look at sea level rise. Data depicting the predicted levels of sea level rise was developed and provided by NOAA Coastal Services Center in Charleston, SC using 2007 and 2009 LiDAR data for Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester counties. These data depict the potential inundation of coastal areas resulting from a projected 1 to 3 feet rise in sea level (in 0.5 feet increments) above current Mean Higher High Water (MHHW) conditions. The process used to produce the data can be described as a modified bathtub approach that attempts to account for both local/regional tidal variability as well as hydrological connectivity. The process uses two source datasets to derive the final inundation rasters and polygons for each iteration of sea level rise: the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the area and a tidal surface model that represents spatial tidal variability. This viewer was developed by City of Charleston GIS staff.
Use the slider bar to see how various levels of sea level rise will impact this area. Levels represent inundation at high tide. Areas that are hydrologically connected are shown in shades of blue (darker blue = greater depth).
The process to derive the inundation rasters and polygons is as follows:
The data and maps in this tool illustrate the scale of potential flooding, not the exact location, and do not account for erosion, subsidence, existing stormwater improvements, or future construction. Water levels are shown as they would appear during the highest high tides (excludes wind driven tides). The data, maps, and information provided should be used only as a screening-level tool for management decisions. As with all remotely sensed data, all features should be verified with a site visit. The data and maps in this tool are provided “as is,” without warranty to their performance, merchantable state, or fitness for any particular purpose. The entire risk associated with the results and performance of these data is assumed by the user. This tool should be used strictly as a planning reference tool and not for navigation, permitting, or other legal purposes.

We work closely with WWL to bring innovative construction soltuons to the commercial, trade and domestic markets. We have expanded our skills and services to bring you the passive house concept. Passive housing is a unique construction concept, a building standard that is truly energy efficient, comfortable, affordable and ecological all at the same time.
A Passive House is more than just a low-energy building…
- Passive houses allow for energy savings of up to 90% compared with typical building stock and over 75% compared with average new builds.
- In terms of heating oil, Passive Houses use less than 1.5 litres per square metre of living space per year: far less than typical low-energy buildings. Similar energy savings have been demonstrated in warm climates where buildings require more energy for cooling than for heating.
- Passive Houses are praised for their high level of comfort, using energy sources inside the building such as body heat or solar heat entering the building.
- Special windows and a building shell consisting of highly insulated exterior walls, roof and floor slab keep the desired warmth in and the undesirable heat out.
- A ventilation system consistently supplies fresh air making for superior air quality without causing any unpleasant draughts. A highly efficient heat recovery unit allows for the heat contained in the exhaust air to be re-used.
The vast energy savings in Passive Houses are achieved by using specific energy efficient building components and a quality ventilation system:

All Aquastore tank panels are manufactured with glass-fused-to-steel technology, which is the process of fusing steel with glass particles at 1500º F to create a single inert bond. The end result is a high quality, durable structure that has proven to contain a variety of liquids with the lowest lifecycle cost of any tank technology. With this fusion process, Aquastore tanks never need to be repainted to prolong their service life, unlike welded steel and field-coated tanks.
Aquastore tank designs incorporate recognized standards assuring high quality and long-lasting municipal and industrial service liquid storage tanks. Materials are carefully selected and inspected for conformance to rigid specifications. These design and material standards are proven in thousands of tanks all over the world. All Aquastore tanks are manufactured in an ISO 9001:2000 certified facility. Standards include but are not limited to:
- ANSI/AWWA D103 – Bolted Steel Water Storage Tanks
- FM 4020/4021
- NFPA Standard 22
- EN 15282
Aquastore tanks are available in a many different applications with capacities up to 6 million gallons, including:
- Process Water
- Potable Water
- Recycled Water
- Biofuels / Bioenergy
- Wastewater/Sludge/Clarifier/SBR units
- Composite Elevated Systems
All Aquastore tanks are constructed by using jack built systems designed and stamped by a California Professional Engineer. This eliminates the need to outsource welders, scaffolding and cranes, which is common with most other tank constructions. This method also means Aquastore tanks are completed faster while minimizing danger to workers and environmental impact. The jack built system also allows for easier tank expansion.
Best of all, you will never have to re-paint your Aquastore tank.

The Rome implementation aims at improving and optimizing waste collection and reverse logistics. It pursues two joint objectives:
Reduce transport negative externalities
The Rome implementation is an innovative system for integrating direct and reverse logistic flows in urban areas. The main idea is to involve Poste Italiane, the national postal operator, already delivering mail/parcels all around the city, in the collection of recycled materials during the same transportation route and using electric vehicles. The innovation lies in the integration of the existing frequent distribution system (i.e. mail delivery), with free capacity on return trips, and the recycling of urban waste.
The proposed solution will foster the practical deployment of the EU circular economy strategy by providing an efficient city logistics system to collect recycled urban waste thus minimising road congestion and polluting emissions while increasing freight vehicle load factors.
Implementation status and next steps
The implementation in Rome deals with integration of direct and reverse flows, which is an area where very little has been done until now. In order to achieve our aims, the Living Lab partners have decided to perform several Living Lab cycles starting from a small-scale implementation later to be up-scaled.
The first cycle, now completed, was a small-scale implementation considering a specific material (i.e. plastic bottle caps) and covering a relatively small area (around 1 square km, involving four department buildings of the University of Roma Tre). The implementation proved the tested service to be technically feasible and environmentally sustainable although not financially profitable. The deployed implementation is extremely useful for future developments since it provides a real case experience that can be used as an example for future extensions both geographically and with respect to the materials recycled.
The second cycle will explore the opportunity to:
Extend the implementation in terms of flows involved, sites and alternative waste recycled
Include it in the actual logistics process for urban waste management of the city of Rome according to the recently passed Directives 2016-2021 for the future governance of the city of Rome.


California’s Bullet Train to Reduce Accidents
The high-speed rail through California’s Central Valley that’s been dubbed the “bullet train.” The bullet train will allow commuters to take a 2 hour and 40 minute ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles at speeds of up to 220 mph and will offer many benefits for residents as well as the environment.
The final project will span over 800 miles of train track and utilize 24 stations. Each day, it will eliminate 10 million miles of travel as well as 180 flights. The bullet train will take cars off the roadways, especially in traffic-ridden areas such as San Francisco and Los Angeles, which will reduce the number of vehicle accidents.
It is expected to reduce carbon emissions by up to 40 percent by 2030. This project will also provide a much-needed boost to California’s infrastructure. California’s population continues to expand placing unsustainable strain on the state’s roadways and airports.
Despite its many advantages, the bullet train has faced opposition along the way. It was approved by voters in 2008. It was supposed to be completed by September 30, 2017. However, the project is behind schedule and over budget. Anticipated completion date for Phase 1 is 2025, Phase II is to be completed in 2029. Estimated project cost is $64 billion, a huge increase from initial cost estimate of $40 billion.
Lawsuits & Delay
Many opponents of the bullet train project believe that the project violates provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act. To date, six lawsuits have already been filed challenging continuation of the project. Continued litigation has caused numerous, unforeseen delays.Current Status of California’s Bullet Train Project
Construction has already begun, with crews working on 119 miles of track near Fresno area. The public continues to widely support the project according to a May 2016 study which showed that 63 percent of Californians still considered the bullet train “important” for the “future quality of life and economic vitality of California.”

Water treatment is a critical part of any system that uses water for operation and functionality. Water is naturally exposed to contaminants as it cycles through your machinery, whether it’s for pressure, propulsion, cooling, centrifugal force, or other uses. You need an efficient and reliable water treatment system to clean, purify, and regulate the water you use in your operation. If you already use a sewage or wastewater treatment system, it’s important that it functions as designs and keeps you running at maximum capacity.
When was the last time you had your water treatment system inspected? Is it wasting energy or risking contaminants in your water supply? Would you know if it was? Many businesses find out too late that their wastewater treatment system is failing, or that switching to a more efficient or environmentally friendly sewage and wastewater treatment would create serious positive change for your business.
What is a Puraflo Sewage Treatment System?
The Puraflo sewage treatment system is the most unique and successful system of its kind. It uses peat fiber as a biofilter to remove contaminants and detritus from wastewater without dangerous chemicals or non-renewable plastics filters that will clog landfills for decades. Because Puraflo uses peat fiber, it’s an incredibly environmentally friendly and strong economic choice. Puraflo offers the best solution to wastewater filtration that will provide clean water with less energy and cost.
How a Puraflo Sewage Treatment System Works
The Puraflo Sewage Treatment System uses peat fiber to remove high-level pathogens and nitrogen from wastewater as it moves through a water system’s pipes, with or without energy. The Puraflo Sewage Treatment System can be used intermittently without the problems you’d find in a traditional sewage treatment system that isn’t used consistently. The Puraflo peat fiber lasts longer and requires less energy, which makes it a much better long term solution to your water treatment needs.
Other benefits of the Puraflo sewage treatment system are many. For plenty of business owners, the odor-free guarantee of the Puraflo sewage treatment is a huge sell. Many wastewater treatment systems come with their own distinct smell that is less than appealing, but the Puraflo is odorless. Another huge benefit of the Puraflo wastewater treatment system is that it’s customizable. The design is modular, meaning you can add and combine features to create the perfect wastewater system for your needs.
Your Sewage Treatment System
As we stated above, your water treatment system is critical to your operation. At Davidson Sales and Engineering we specialize in creating pumps, filtration, fluid systems, and more to help keep your manufacturing operation running smoothly and efficiently. We know that every system is different and requires unique solutions. We can work with you to create the most efficient and powerful system for your business.
Davidson Sales and Engineering can assess your current wastewater treatment system and help you determine if an upgrade to a Puraflo Sewage Treatment System could be beneficial for your business with just one call.

Solidarity in Action volunteers help the project partners make important infrastructural developments. Volunteers work alongside the local partner or community for each infrastructure project. Solidarity in Action does not offer infrastructural development placements every program.
Solidarity in Action participants were not involved in infrastructural development projects in 2014.
Previous 2013 placement positions:
- Construction support – Mixing cement, building, painting, etc.
- Infrastructural needs assessments – Conducting surveys, house visits, and collecting data
2013 PLACEMENT HIGHLIGHTS
In 2013, Solidarity in Action completed the third and final classroom of the Pacifico de Villa school renovation project. Solidarity in Action volunteers helped to demolish the old classroom structure, and laid the foundation for the new classroom. The volunteers received direction from the local foreman, and members of the local community. Volunteers assisted with demolition, mixing cement, moving the building materials (cement, sand, etc.), and cement pouring. The building experience allowed participants to interact with the local community and discovered that it is not necessary for two people to speak the same language in order to have a conversation, and to build a friendship.
The project placements for the 2015 programs will be finalized at a later date.

Jersey City’s unique topography and location as part of a peninsula surrounded by the Hudson, Hackensack, and Passaic Rivers as well as New York Harbor and Newark Bay, makes the City especially vulnerable to flooding during storm events.
Since Superstorm Sandy in 2012, the City of Jersey City has undertaken various studies and initiatives to help the City better prepare for and recover from future storms. The Jersey City Division of Planning prepared the Sandy Recovery Strategic Planning Report: A Strategic Plan for Resilience in 2014. This report was prepared by evaluating analysis formerly done by NOAA and Stevens Institute of Technology. It summarizes the impact of Superstorm Sandy on Jersey City and serves as a guide for recovery and reduced vulnerability to future disasters.
Based on the recommendations of the Sandy Recovery Strategic Planning Report, the City applied for and was awarded a $260,000 Post-Sandy Planning Assistance Grant from the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to undertake comprehensive resiliency planning. The City has contracted with consultants specializing in resiliency and adaptation to help coordinate the findings and recommendations of past efforts and guide the study and implementation of measures that will address storm surge, sea level rise, and other related issues.
The results of this Comprehensive Resiliency Planning Initiative will be the preparation and adoption of six key planning documents that provide strategies for improving the City’s ability to withstand and recover from the effects of future storms. These documents are briefly outlined below:
1. Resiliency Plan – A framework to address and expand on the strategies outlined in the City’s Sandy Recovery Strategic Planning Report. The Resiliency Plan will inventory completed and current studies, projects, and initiatives related to resiliency and identify and prioritize gaps and additional needs.
2. Adaptation Plan – An action plan that describes specific projects and initiatives for the City to undertake that will support the vision and goals of the Resiliency Plan. The Adaptation Plan will include descriptions of existing conditions, the nature and extent of adaptation measures, and identify potential funding sources, implementing agencies, and time frames.
3. Zoning and Building Code Amendments – Recommended changes to the zoning and building codes to increase the City’s resilience.
4. Urban Environmental Green Infrastructure Plan – Strategies that mitigate storm impacts through green infrastructure and stormwater management techniques.
5. Capital Improvement Plan – A five-year capital improvement plan that focuses on municipal capital investment projects identified in the Resiliency Plan, Adaptation Plan, and Urban Environmental Green Infrastructure Plan.
6. Design Standards – Specific guidelines to ensure that proposed zoning and building code requirements are consistent with the City’s goals for the built environment.
Together, these documents will chart a path forward for a more resilient Jersey City.

This is a developing story.
A pedestrian bridge under construction at Florida International University in Miami has collapsed onto the street below. Live video is included below.
UPDATE: Four people have died, and as many as nine more remain hospitalized.
ORIGINAL STORY: Early reports say several people are dead. Many are injured, and cars appear to be trapped under the debris.
There are fears that people are still trapped underneath, and authorities have told news crews to keep helicopters away from the area, so rescue workers can listen for survivors.
The street appears to span eight lanes.
Florida International University’s massive new pedestrian bridge collapsed Thursday afternoon in West Miami-Dade.
The bridge, located at 109th Ave and 8th Street, collapsed on a number of cars.
There are reports of numerous people injured in the collapse. At least one person was taken as a trauma alert to the hospital, according to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue.
The 950-ton bridge went up on Saturday. It was then lowered into its final position, just west of 109th Avenue that day.
The main span was built next to Southwest 8th Street.
Here is video from ABC News.

PIONIERS and ZEITGEIST
|The first development of the ski mountains Planai and Hochwurzen.|
While the Schladming pioneers had plans for many lift and cable railway projects in their heads after the Second World War, there were little funds available to realise them. The ski scene of the 1950s took place primarily in Rohrmoos.
|1949||The first chair lift began operations in December. The single chair lift was able to bring 100 persons an hour from Maistadt to Rohrmoos (GH Moser).|
|The Rohrmoos chair lift was used so frequently that it sparked the ingenuity of the local population. The brothers Franz and Gottl Schütter began to operate their first tow lift.|
|1953||Heinz Weichsler constructed the first tow lift on the top of the Planai.|
|1957||The first sledge lift was opened at Kainspieß.|
|Climbing the Mountains with the Ski Bus|
The large-scale cable railway projects initially remained only in the heads of the visionaries. Building roads had to come first.
|1960||Governor Josef Krainer officially opened the Hochwurzen High Road on 9 September. The Hochwurzen FIS route became the new ski attraction in Styria the following winter.|
|1961||The route was expanded by 25 metres. Franz Tritscher and his team completed the levelling work by hand.|
|1963||The tracks for the future of the Planai were laid.|
The decisive initiative came from the founding of IG-Fastenberg, a combination of representatives from the communities of Rohrmoos, Schladming and the Forestry Association of Fastenberg. The goal was the construction of an alpine road on the Planai and the construction of a ski route. Mayor Harald Laurich, Sepp Kraiter (chairman of IG-Fastenberg) and Willi Plut (chairman of the 35 property owners of the forestry association) were the leaders of the inexhaustible pioneers.
|1964||The construction of the Planai toll road began. It became one of the most heavily travelled alpine roads in Austria after its completion in 1965. The toll income was used primarily to cover road maintenance costs.|
|Private initiatives during the beginning of the 1960s resulted in multiple sled lifts in Rohrmoos and the “Wirtsleitn – Lift” at what is now the finish line of the Planai ski route.|
|The construction of the ski runs began parallel to the construction of the Planai road. The FIS run on the Planai was completed in 1966. The Schladming piste pioneers Sepp Streicher and engineer Sepp Kraiter made a name for themselves while constructing the pistes.|
|1966||Commercial ski operations started in December and the transportation was conducted using buses – bumpy, cramped and damp but always a good time!|
Up to 35 buses were used in shuttle service to bring skiers to the Planai in the years before the cable railway was opened.
|The first piste preparation work was done with a special invention, a converted Ferguson tractor, created by Hans Plut and the brothers Toni and Rudi Stocker.|
|1967||The Planai-Hochwurzen ski pass was introduced.|
|1968||The first Ratrac piste groomer was purchased.|
|1970||The shareholders agreement was concluded on 9 July and the company “Planai-Bahn GmbH” was founded on 29 July at the Schladming city hall.|
|1971||The construction of a double chair lift and a gondola lift were approved after a thorough economic review.|
|1972||saw the Schladming dream of many years come true. The 4-seat gondola lift with a length of 3,356 metres and an altitude difference of 1,080 metres began operating.|
|1973||The double chair lift Lärchkogel and the Lärchkogel ski run were completed.|
|1974||The Fastenberg lift began operating, making the eastern side of the Planai accessible.|
|1976||Weitmoos was opened by the “Weitmooslift GesmbH & CoKg”, which entered our company as a shareholder. In the same year, Interessengemeinschaft Planai merged with Planai-Bahn, transferring the responsibility for the pistes and streets to Planai-Bahn.|
The opening of the Mitterhaus area, the overpasses and the Kessler overpass were started in the following years. The foundation was already laid back then to create to connection to the neighbouring Hauser Kaibling.
|1977||The opening of the Mitterhaus area, with the help of a sled lift, was very important for the Planai & Hochwurzen Bahnen GmbH. This made a generous, nearly tree-free area with guaranteed snow available for skiers.|
|1979||The first steps were brought to shining close with the purchase of the Weichsler lift. A merger with the “Hochwurzen-Bahn” created today’s Planai-Hochwurzen Bahnen GmbH.|
|The connection of the ski mountains Planai and Hochwurzen was completed with the construction of the double chair lifts Planai West I and II. The first tunnel chair lift in the world (Planai West I) was constructed to prevent costly rock erosion.|
|1980||saw the construction of the double chair lift Rohrmoos I in place of the already closed single chair lift “Moserboden”. This allowed the construction of the Planai-Rohrmoos Ski Swing and an approach to Rohrmoos. At the same time, the Alpenhoflift was purchased and the long-term lease of the Schwaiger and Schütter lifts in Rohrmoos.|
|A merger with the bus company of the Rohrmoos-Untertal community in 1980 transforms the Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen GmbH into a significant bus company, which provides regular service as well as international bus service.|
The entire lift and cable railway system on the mountains of Planai, Hochwurzen and Rohrmoos were placed under the management of the Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen at the end of 1980.
|In addition, the coupleable three chair lift Planai III was constructed. Planai III was built as the first basement train station in the world in order to minimise the building size as much as possible.|
|The path from Märchenwiese to the north slope was opened with the construction of the Lärchkogel south lift.|
|The second sled lift in the Mitterhaus area was constructed (Mitterhaus Lift II).|
|1981||The construction of the double chair lift Rohrmoos II in 1981 fulfilled a wish of many years for the Schladming and Rohrmoos tourist industry, as this 1,400 metre railway strengthened Hochwurzen as a popular family and ski training area.|
|An efficient funicular – the Planai Funicular (6 person gondola) – was completed just in time for the beginning of the winter season 1985/86.|
|1988||The Planai Hochwurzen Bahnen expanded their offerings in Märchenwiese in December 1988 with a button lift – Weitmoos II, constructed parallel to the existing sled lift.|
|1990||The fall of 1990 was full of the construction of new lifts on Hochwurzen and Planai alike. Gipfelbahn Hochwurzen, a cable railway with 5 gondolas, was certainly the highlight. The four chair lift Burgstallalm was also an important part of the investments.|
|1994||A four chair lift replaced the double chair lift in Lärchkogel.|
|1997||An additional track is added on Hochwurzen, which, together with the renovations of the snowmaking system, amounts to an investment volume of 120 million schillings.|
|1998||Realisation of the Schladming 4-Mountain Ski Swing|
The connection between Hochwurzen and Pichl was completed in 1998 with the 4-mountain ski swing. At the same time, the six chair lift Rohrmoos II was constructed in Rohrmoos.
|2001||Founding of the largest Austrian tariff association: 23 Salzburg and Styrian cable railway companies, including Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen, merged under the name Ski amadé in order to be able to compete together on the international market in the future and to provide their guests the widest alpine offer in Europe.|
|2002||Planai-Bahnen invested an additional € 7.2 million. The largest chair lift in the region was constructed at Fastenberg, a coupleable 6 chair lift – the Planai 6er.|
|2003||Acquisition of the Dachstein Tourisumus AG facilities on the Dachstein Glacier by Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen.|
|2003||Construction of electrical supply facilities for the Hunerkogel mountain station, new construction on the Austriascharten lift and replacement of the Hunerkogel lift on the Dachstein Glacier.|
|2004||Renovation of the material rail; renovation of the Dachstein southern wall rail for electric drives, electrification of the Schladming lift and the Mitterstein chair lift.|
|2004||Acquisition of Galsterbergalm: Galsterbergalm will now be operated by Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen in Schladming.|
|2006||Construction of the 8 car cableway “Golden Jet”: The connection between Planai and Hochwurzen is now even more comfortable.|
|2008||The Dachstein Glacier Restaurant is operated by Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen starting at the beginning of the summer season 2008. Ms. Gundi Pachernegg from Schladming is responsible for this division of the company. Her new motivated team brings not only brio to the highest restaurant in Styria, but fresh air to the food and drink assortment on the mountain as well.|
|2008||After the motto chair, chair, chair, gondola, the first so-called Telemix lift, the "Sun Jet" was constructed on Hochwurzen. This special lift features 3 chairs followed by a gondola, all using the same cable rail system.|
|2008||The most modern parking garage in Austria was constructed – Parkhaus Planai. It is completely free of columns, flooded with light and allows skiers to travel in from the pistes on every individual storey.|
|2009||Leadership Change on Planai: An era came to an end on 30 June 2009 on the Planai! Long-time chief executive and founding shareholder KoR Dir. Albert Baier placed the future of the company in the hands of Ernst Trummer after nearly 40 years. Planai-Bahnen grew under Albert Baier from a small operation in the 1970s to one of the large, most well-known cable railway companies in the entire alpine region.|
|2009||Planai-Bahnen builds the 8 chair lift “Märchenwiese” in Styria this year. The journey from Planai-Märchenwiese to the peak at 1,906 metres above sea level will be especially comfortable. Additional investments of more than € 16 million are made this year to extend the ski routes and upgrade the snowmaking system.|
|2010||The planning work for the new "Multifunctional Valley Station Centre” (working title) are already moving at top speed. A service deck below the stadium parking lot will also be constructed.|
|2013||Schladming will be the broadcast location for the Alpine Ski World Cup 2013. The preparations for this important event are already underway.|

IMPROVING SPRINGFIELD'S WATER SUPPLY: In 1884, Springfield's municipal water works—located a few miles north of town on the Sangamon River—undertook action to improve the quality of water provided to consumers of the public water supply. That year, a 50-foot-diameter, 50-foot-deep well was dug next to the water works station allowing a large quantity of naturally filtered water to be pumped to the city each day. Prior to that time, the water works had been able to pump only raw, unfiltered river water to the town. This was the first step of many to take place over the next half-century that would vastly improve water quality and virtually eliminate the potential for disease resulting from pathogens in the local drinking water supply.

HOW TO DESIGN FUTURE CITIES
May 8 @ 15:00 - 17:00
The world is continuously urbanizing, which affects the way future cities will be designed. Between 1995 and 2015, the number of megacities worldwide – defined as a city with more than 10 million inhabitants – has more than doubled, from 14 to 29. Furthermore, climate change, demography and technology are all mega trends that will completely transform our cities. So the millionaire question is: How do we design cities that will meet these future challenges?
Join our event to hear more about how we design cities of the future today.

Building shells and in particular facade constructions belong to our long-standing core competences. In Switzerland, we have processed over 35 million square metres of MARMORAN facades to date. This enables us to reduce energy consumption, costs and greenhouse gases and to ensure efficiency in construction.
Over 50 years ago, we pioneered the introduction of maxit dry mortar silos including a logistics system. More than two decades ago, we revolutionised the processing of underlay floors. With the innovative Mixmobil technology from Kirchhofer Floor Systems, hundreds of square metres of self-levelling underlay floors can be installed within a few hours, without bowls and without reworking.
It is not enough for us to offer advanced product solutions and services. We are interested in the final result, the successful construction project and the people it connects, from the planner to the building contractor to the satisfied house owner and the satisfied tenant. We will continue to measure ourselves against this in the future.
“We are interested in the end result: the successful building project and the people connected by it. This requires high-performance products, system solutions and, above all, the correct implementation. Together with our customers and our many years of experience, the innovations and a sustainable circular economy, we ensure that everything fits together. We will continue to hold ourselves to this standard going forward.”


AICTSL's Successful Trial! Now Indore will have 16 more e-Bus on different routes
Seeking to modern day technology it has been seen that now corporates and government are together working on such infrastructure development that even helps to reduce the pollution in the urban area. Talking about the increasing traffic rate on roads in terms of new vehicle added every second on the road, leads to generate more pollution. The only solution is to motivate people to use public transport as their mode of transportation. Moving one step ahead of every local transportation system within the country Indore has once again proved that they are No 1. After cleaning the city and its roads now Indore has geared up to make it a pollution free city.
The Atal Indore City Transport Service Limited (AICTSL) has now completed its trail project of running battery operated Electric Buses for the use of public transport and its a matter of joy that the trail has been successful and now AICTSL is planning to run more such buses on the road.
The successful trial
After the success of the 2-month trial from a single bus, AICTSL has ordered 16 more buses to add to the local transport system. The company which has been chosen to provide such electric buses is TATA Motors. The company has already committed itself to provide mobility solutions for various cities in the country. After a thorough study of the geographical conditions of the various cities, it is providing a fleet of all-electric buses to transport loads of people in the city in a pollution-free manner. Tata will provide 40 Ultra 9m AC Electric buses to the Atal Indore City Transport Service Limited (AICTSL) in a phased manner and will be delivered over the next 2 months.
Electric bus features
The architecture of the platform has been conceived and developed by the in-house engineering team of Tata Motors, meeting the requirement of various tenders floated by individual state transport undertakings. The newly designed exterior includes stylized Ultra headlamps and streamlined looks. The vehicle architecture ensures very low energy consumption and low TCO (total cost of operation) apart from being a Zero Emission environment-friendly bus.”


[7/11/22] Last Friday, July 8th, Chamber staff including CEO Andrea Reay joined the Washington State Department of Transportation to break ground on the SR 167 Completion Project. This project is part of the Puget Sound Gateway Program, which also includes a completion project for SR 509 in King County and has the goal to "complete two major unfinished highways in the Puget Sound region to create new connections to Interstate 5, the ports of Tacoma and Seattle and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport," according to WSDOT. The SR 167 Completion Project will, among other things, create 6 new miles of highway between Puyallup and the Port of Tacoma. According to WSDOT, "Completing this unfinished highway will greatly benefit the movement of freight, improve safety and reduce congestion on local roads and highways in the surrounding area."
Chamber CEO Andrea Reay was among the distinguished guests who spoke at the groundbreaking ceremony. She celebrated the achievement of the project in her remarks, stating:
"This project is a regional success and collective win for all in our region. Here in the South Sound, we are the makers and the movers for the State of Washington. Our economic ecosystem depends on our ability to swiftly and predictably move people and goods throughout the Puget Sound. Today marks not only a key milestone in our ability to strengthen and secure accessibility for our multi-modal transportation and logistics infrastructure, but access and equitable economic development as well—with a projected workforce impact of 80,000 jobs. Both directly and indirectly, this increase in family-wage jobs can and will be part of building generational wealth for our community here in the South Sound."
Hear Andrea's full remarks from the event.
Other speakers at the ceremony included WSDOT Secretary of Transportation Roger Millar, Senior Transportation Policy Advisor for Governor Jay Inslee Debbie Driver, Washington State Representative Jake Fey, Washington State Senator Marko Liias, Fife City Councilmember Pat Hulcey, Port of Tacoma Commissioner Dick Marzano, and Senior Vice President for Atkinson Construction Bob Adams.
Following the speakers, guests in attendance were invited to help pot native plants and trees that will be included in the Riparian Restoration Program, a major component of the SR 167 Completion Project that will benefit the environment.
When complete, the project will have created a new 2-mile expressway between I-5 and SR 509 near the Port of Tacoma,
a shared-use path parallel to the highway for non-motorized travel (walking, bicycling, etc.) between I-5 and SR 509 near Tacoma, a diverging diamond interchange over I-5 in Fife that will connect the new SR 167 to I-5, and approximately 150 acres of wetland, stream and environmental restoration that will improve native fish runs and encourage the return of wildlife to the area.
Benefits of the project include improved freight connections, better regional mobility, increased multimodal connections, environmental enhancements, updates in intelligent transportation, and regional job and economic growth.

The Haller Journey involves working with local communities to lay the groundwork for transformation. These processes create crucial foundations for healthy soil and food production. During the initial phase of the Haller Journey, we work with impoverished communities to provide water security, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) creating suitable conditions for smallholder farming.
Haller Kenya conducts a geological survey to site all the water projects appropriately. This ensures that the dam is in an appropriate catchment area, the well is sited to access the local water table and the eco-loo is placed to avoid run-off contaminating groundwater surfaces. The work is overseen by Haller Kenya and the community are paid for every cubic metre of earth they remove, which is typically reinvested into the purchase of farming materials.
Once the WASH Projects have been completed, communities will have water available for drinking, irrigation and eco- sanitary facilities. Women will not have to spend hours walking in search of drinking water, instead, they are able to tend to the community plots, and children are free from water collection duties to attend school.
We have now constructed 53 wells, 47 eco-loos and 54 rain-fed dams across 54 communities.
