Among the many things that Rod Billingsley says he won’tmiss about the pandemic is the restrictions it put on doingbusiness face-to-face.“It hasn’t been so much meeting with the clients, as it’s beenmeeting with the owner’s representatives,” says Billingsley,the president of Billingsley Engineering.“There’s been times when you almost have to have that in-person meeting to look over plans and layout data together,or try to resolve a plan discrepancy, that’s just a regularpart of the business that we haven’t been able to do the waywe would have before Covid,” he says.But despite such frustrations, notes Billingsley, thecompany remarkably endured the trials of Covid-19, muchas it has other challenges in the last four decades, by simplypushing ahead.“All of the projects that were planned before Covid wentahead and became reality,” he says of life at BillingsleyEngineering since the pandemic arrived in the first quarterof last year. Noting that transportation department projects arebudgeted ahead of time, Billingsley says “We did notexperience the kind of variability that you see in privateconstruction; we were insulated to some degree.”But that is not to say that his company, whether in apandemic world or now moving out of that world, is notwithout challenges. “I’m in a rural area, and hiring people—I could double myvolume if I could hire all the people, I could really use,” saysBillingsley.“I’m not looking for a guy who wants to make $15 an hour,”he continues. “I’m looking for a man or a woman engineerwho wants to make two or three times that. And thosepeople usually already have jobs.”Headquartered in a nearly 100-year-old, three-story brickbuilding on tree-lined 6th Street in Las Vegas, New Mexico,Billingsley Engineering was launched in 1981 and hasthrived, due not just to the quality of its work, but thediversity of its services.The company specializes in engineering and surveying supportfor highway and heavy metal construction contractors; bridgejacking, shoring, and demolition plans; and soil, aggregate,concrete and asphalt mix materials testing, to name a few of itsservices.Among its more prominent projects, Billingsley Engineering hasprovided quality control and quality assurance testing for the bigBradner Dam Reservoir rehabilitation project; work that hasincluded extensive soil testing, aggregate uniformity testing; andfresh grout field testing.Originally opening shop in Santa Rosa, which in the early 1980shad a population of around 2,400 people, Billingsley says he wastold, by a banker, that if he really wanted to grow his company, heshould find a larger locale.Billingsley picked Las Vegas, which was then on its way to a peakpopulation of just under 15,000. He’s never looked back.But picking a place to do business was only one of the tasksBillingsley was confronted with when starting out.“I was told when I first started out that getting good people onstaff would be my biggest problem,” says Billingsley.Such hasn’t turned out to be the case, to Billingsley’s relief: “Infact, I couldn’t have survived all these years had it not been forthe people who work for me,” he says. “I’ve been blessed by having really good people,” Billingsley adds,before joking: “I don’t know if I worked as hard as they dowhether I could make it myself.”That staff is now just over a dozen people, while Billingsley’s wife,Karen, conducts senior exercise classes on the top floor of the6th Street building. Enjoying a business that now spans four decades, Billingsleyremarks: “We’ve worked on hundreds of jobs over the years;we’ve worked on dams, we’ve worked on highways, and whenyou think of those things, you remember, naturally, some of theproblems.”“But when you also see all these years later that the project isworking, and doing what it’s supposed to do, it gives you a goodfeeling, knowing that you had a hand in that.”Longevity has many rewards: “We’re now sometimes working forthe grandkids of contractors we worked with originally, 30 yearsago or so.”Billingsley says if he had to do it all over again, starting his owncompany, and working in the same industry, he would.“I think most of the time in the construction industry you get towork with some pretty good people,” he notes. “And that’ssomething I have always liked about the business.”2021 Construction Reporter, LLC, All Rights Reserved.

Reproduction & Forwarding is Prohibited.Copyright: USA TodayUp to 90% of total new federal highway funding will godirectly to the states for individual projects, as defined bylegislation just introduced in the Senate Environment andPublic Works Committee.The legislation is a step in the direction of passing themassive Surface Transportation Act of 2021, which has a5-year life, and increases funding by some 22% abovecurrent levels.The legislation, notes the American Association of StateHighway and Transportation Officials, not only supportshighway work for urban and rural communities, it alsostands to improve project delivery, and provide “flexibilitynecessary for states to maintain and improve their roadsand bridges.”As proposed, the bill establishes a baseline funding levelof around $303 billion for highway, road, and bridgeprojects.The legislation also aims to increase the number of milesdesignated by a state, and subject to funding, as a criticalrural freight corridor from 150 to 300 miles, whileincreasing from 75 miles to 150 miles roadways definedas critical urban freight corridors.The current Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Actwas signed into law in 2015 and given a one-yearextension in 2020.That extension is scheduled to expire on September 30.A move is reported to be underway in Congress for thepassage of a fourth stimulus check.“Families and workers shouldn’t have to worry aboutwhether they’ll have enough money to pay for essentials inthe months ahead as the country continues to fight a globalpandemic and recession,” seven members of the 42-memberHouse Ways and Means Committee have written in a publicletter.The letter, sent to President Biden, also held out thepossibility of a fifth stimulus check, noting that such funding“could reduce the number in poverty in 2021 from 44 millionto 16 million.”A national petition listed on the website Change.org is callingfor a $2,000 check for families and has so far secured morethan 2.2 million names.A group called the Economic Security Project is also callingfor a fourth check—and soon. Adam Ruben, campaigndirector for the ESP, said the delay last year between thefirst stimulus check and the second allowed for some 8million people to fall into poverty.The last stimulus check for an average of $1,400 was passedby Congress and approved by President Biden in March. Thestimulus was part of the President’s larger $1.9 trillioncoronavirus relief legislation, with most checks mailed outfrom the Treasury Department by late April.Although various economic analysts have questioned theneed for a fourth check, the website Motley Fool notes: “Ifthe pandemic worsens again, or if Americans continue tostruggle financially, this will only serve to increase demandfor a fourth check.”Meanwhile the Boston Herald has concluded a study notingthat some 1.2 million earlier stimulus checks remainedunspent. The paper said such checks either were nevercashed or were returned to the Treasury Department.By Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter05/28/2021By Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter05/27/2021CONGRESS MOVING ON NEW SURFACE TRANSPORTATION LEGISLATIONCONGRESS CONTEMPLATING YET ONE MORE STIMULUS CHECKCopyright: National Geographic Society COURIER SERVICESCOURIER--Will pick up and deliver:Site surveysFloor plansArchitectural drawingsSmall item delivery to and fromconstruction sites.Call or text Tim at (505) 450-770918VOULME 01 | ISSUE 46

We think it’s part ofsharing our success with our communities.”Wage increases have proven particularly steady in theconstruction industry, according to an analysis recentlyreleased by the Associated General Contractors of America.The average hourly wage for middle managers andprofessionals is up by 3.2% over last year, according to thestudy, with overall wages, salaries, and benefits in the firstquarter of 2021 up by 0.9%, compared with 0.6% in the lastquarter of 2020.In a separate report, the Bureau of Labor Statistics notesthat construction industry compensation in the last year hasincreased by 2.7%.DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ADVOCATING LOCAL HIRING EFFORTBy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter05/26/2021WAGE INCREASES ON THE UPSIDE IN INDUSTRIES ACROSS THE COUNTRYBy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter05/25/202119VOULME 01 |ISSUE 46

According to an Xceldocument submitted to the commissioners, hydrogenfrom the plant could “not only serve as a renewable,zero-emission energy source, but also support atransition for natural gas in a clean energy future.”A proposal is also looking at transforming the site into abiomass plant, or possibly even a molten salt energystorage facility.Jack Ihle, an Xcel director of environmental policy, toldthe commissioners: “The objective is to try to recoversome of the tax base that could be lost with the coalplant retirement, maintain jobs in the area, but also driveour technology forward.”It is not known when a specific plan for repurposing theHayden plant will be determined.COLORADO COAL GENERATING PLANT MAY SEE NEW USEBy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter05/26/2021Copyright: Mountain Town Newswww.crispycleanmobilecarwash.com Margarita Pleasant(505) 463-2479 pleasantmargarita@gmail.com www.facebook.com/CrispyCleanMobileCarwash We care about localbusinesses since we are one too andtrying to make a name for ourselves.Crispy CleanMobile Carwash & Fleet ServicesWe Do Fleets

CONSTRUCTION: NATIONAL2021 Construction Reporter, LLC, All Rights Reserved. Reproduction & Forwarding is Prohibited.President Biden’s detailed fiscal 2022 budget proposal hasgood news for most key federal construction andinfrastructure programs, seeking increases from this year'slevels in many transportation, environmental and federalbuildings accounts.But the budget request, sent to Congress on May 28, has oneprominent exception to that picture—the U.S. Army Corps ofEngineers civil works program, which would face a 13% cut.As always, the numbers in the president’s proposal are farfrom final. Congressional appropriators will put their stampson the budget and funding levels won’t be settled until thefall, at the earliest.Biden had released a framework for his 2022 budget plan inApril, but that document only had overall funding figures foreach department and agency. The new submission lists allindividual line-items, filling a 1,422-page budget Appendix.Complicating an analysis of the budget picture this year aretwo huge legislative proposals from the president—the $2.3-trillion American Jobs Plan and the $1.8-trillion AmericanFamilies Plan—which have provisions affecting many federaldepartments and agencies.The new Biden budget documents discuss and list elementsof those two plans, but also have recommendations for thetraditional base programs and accounts.Construction and engineering groups have been tracking theAmerican Jobs Plan especially closely because it includesadditional funding for many key infrastructure programs.The fate of both of Biden's ambitious legislative plans isuncertain and the Jobs Plan is the subject of negotiationsbetween the White House and a group of Republicansenators. As Congress began its Memorial Day break, theGOP contingent on May 27 put a new, sweetened $962-billion offer on the table. Negotiations were expected tocontinue.Excluding possible Jobs Plan and Families Plan additions, thenew budget’s proposed funding levels for core infrastructureand construction programs mostly trend upward.At the US Dept. of Transportation, the key federal-aidhighway obligation limit would be frozen at the 2021 level of$46.4 billion, reflecting the last year of the 2015 FixingAmerica’s Surface Transportation, or FAST, Act.Continue reading > Birmingham, Alabama (May 28, 2021) — ConstructionBusiness Owner (CBO), the leading business magazine forcontractors, is pleased to introduce the Sustainability VIPhonor, a special initiative designed to recognize theconstruction professionals building a better future for theearth and its inhabitants.“As the demand for more sustainable building continuesto increase, and the practice of green building becomesincreasingly more profitable, construction today ispositioned to lead the world by example,” said KathyWells, editor of Construction Business Owner Magazine& Digital Media.Continue reading > CONSTRUCTION BUSINESSOWNER MAGAZINE &DIGITAL MEDIA TO HONORCONSTRUCTION’SSUSTAINABILITY VIPSBy Construction Business Owner05/28/2021BIDEN FISCAL 2022 BUDGETBOOSTS MANYCONSTRUCTION PROGRAMSBy Tom Ichniowski, ENR05/28/2021WASHINGTON (May 28, 2021) — President Bidenannounced in a speech last week that he intends to takesteps to combat supply issues plaguing the constructionindustry.“In the coming weeks, my administration will take steps tocombat these supply pressures, starting with theconstruction materials and transportation bottlenecks,and building off the work we’re doing on computer chips,”Biden said. “We’re also announcing new initiatives tocombat anti-competitive practices that hurt smallbusinesses and families.”The Biden administration is reviewing supply issues nextweek, particularly in regard to lumber and steel, both ofwhich are facing significant shortages due totransportation issues and price hikes.

Unmanned autonomous aerial vehicles, better known asdrones, are proving to be a common and almost requiredtool at job sites.Drones are being used for tasks ranging from speeding updata collection and reducing reliance on helicopters andplanes, to performing up-close thermal inspections,identifying structural defects and cracks, conducting sitesurveys, volumetric stockpile calculations, live-streamedwalkthroughs and more. Drones are well-suited forquickly modeling buildings and large areas. Using dronesfor photogrammetry can enable faster and more frequentmodeling at a lower cost than traditional mappingmethods.“The benefits of using drones on construction projects areplentiful: better progress tracking, coordination,sequencing, safety and more,” says Dmitry Korolev, CEO,TraceAir Technologies, Redwood City, Calif. “Our usersreport that drones save them hours of time each week ontasks like billing verification, surveying, traveling betweenjob sites and conducting visual site inspections.Furthermore, having a visual record of the project can paydividends if there’s a financial, legal or environmentaldispute.”Bird’s Eye View“Using drones for such tasks helps improve job-site safety,decreasing the frequency and severity of on-site incidentsassociated with hazardous tasks such as inspections atdangerous heights or exploration of spaces with harmfulmaterials, temperatures or gasses,” says Rodney Murray,professional services training and consultant for Skyward,a Verizon company, St. Charles, Ill. “This also helps saveconstruction companies significant workers’compensation costs.”Continue reading > Ongoing efforts are ensuring many materials that previouslyended up in landfills are now repurposed into constructionmaterials.

In short critical thinking isa person’s ability to take disparate information and makeindependent and logical connections with theinformation. It is an active process of forming newthoughts rather than just passively receiving information.As to how it matters as a skill to architects, I found aninterview with Nick Axel, currently the Head of theArchitecture Department of the Gerrit Rietveld Academiein the Netherlands, who neatly explains how criticalthinking allows architects to understand who we build forand why we build in the first place. You can read the entireinterview here but I have isolated the part the stuck out tome when I first read the article some time ago."As designers we’re constantly required to learn andunderstand more and more. There’s a hidden layer to eachproject; the site, the context, the client, the local culture,the local population, which is essential to discover –because it’s not something that’s readily out there.Working with this knowledge, scratching beneath thesurface, gives the designer a deeper understanding of thesociety they are intervening into, and better equipped tomake a positive contribution to it."- Nick Axel#2 Communication Skills jump to 22:24If you were thinking that I put communication skills on my“Critical Skills” list because I am good at them, you wouldbe incorrect … at least your sequencing is incorrect.

If a tree falls in the woods, how much is it worth? Right now,in a market with a lumber shortage, a lot.Lumber prices have spiked this year. Lumber futurescontracts for May delivery hit $1,645 per 1,000 board feet,up from about 60% a month ago, and 374% over the lastyear, reports Wells Fargo. It's the fastest rise since the post-World War II housing boom, according to Mark Vitner,managing director and senior economist at Wells Fargo."The demand for lumber is exceptionally high and the supplyis constrained," Vitner said. As recently as Friday, the cashprice was $1,514 per thousand board feet.That hit home building hard. The National Association ofHome Builders reported that lumber costs are adding anaverage of $36,000 to new single family home prices. Thoseprices have also added $12,966 to the value of an averagenew multifamily home. As those are typically built to rent,that in turn is adding $119 a month in rent to newapartments.Prices are also affecting smaller remodeling jobs, forconsumers who can find materials. "We don't see a lot ofcapacity coming online, so we're probably not going to see alot of finished lumber product in distribution, so as soon asthat product hits our stores, it sells," Craig Menear, HomeDepot CEO, said in the company's May earnings call.Supply constraints on lumber are not new"It's a mess," said Vitner, and one that didn't start with thepandemic but with the Great Recession of 2008-2009. Whenthe housing market went bust, at least 30 large sawmillsclosed for good, according to the U.S. Forest Service.The 2017 tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber also added tooverall lumber costs, plus wildfires in the Pacific Northwestwiped out potential stock, said Vitner, and these trees canalso take a decade or more to grow to harvestable size.Lumber prices surgePrice per 1,000 board feet (dollars)Then COVID closed or limited sawmills at the start of thepandemic. "Everyone that was in charge of lumber and millsare saying 'okay we're going to shut down and there's notgoing to be a great demand,'" said John Bell, associateprofessor of supply chain management at the University ofTennessee Knoxville.

Further, we are committed toraising awareness and educating the industry about its benefits.For nearly 100 years, Congress has recognized that gain should notbe taxed when property held for trade, business use, or investment,is exchanged for like-kind property. Section 1031 of the InternalRevenue Code addresses this principle, recognizing that taxpayersexchanging like-kind property have not altered their investment andthat the overall economic circumstance of the taxpayer has notchanged either. The ability for tomorrow’s investors to defer gain on like-kindexchanges is a critical aspect of our industry and must remain inplace.SIOR is working closely with our advocacy partner, the NationalAssociation of Realtors (NAR), and other industry affiliates to opposethe repeal or limitation of the like-kind exchange provision and toeducate Members of Congress and their staffs on the importance ofthis provision to the economy.

It changed thewhole conversation.”Strain, a principal at Siegel & Strain Architects in Emeryville,California, decided to dig deeper. Founded in 1964 by open-space activists, Portola Valley has long been a progressivecommunity and wanted to create a new town center thatrestored the land’s natural habitat with a low environmentalfootprint. Like many architects, Strain believed that a building’sembodied carbon wasn’t as important as its operationalcarbon. But after calculating the project’s emissions from sitework, daily transportation for workers, and materials—including special-order windows from Manitoba, Canada—herealized that half the project’s overall carbon emissions for thenext two decades would be from the embodied carbon of itsbuilding materials—creating a major impact at a crucial timefor climate change.“Over the next 100 years, the embodied carbon of the towncenter will account for only 13% of the total project carbon,”Strain says. “But the immediate years were the eye-opener. Asan architect, I realized the first and most dominant emissionsfrom our buildings are embodied. And at this point, we onlyhave about 10 years to solve climate change—so we’d betteraddress embodied carbon now.”Continue reading > 39VOULME 01 |ISSUE 46

Construction firms should stockpile a supply of critical materials likelumber and steel they’ll need for projects in the second half of the year, asexperts predict shortages will continue to plague the building industry.Materials shortages have hamstrung builders over the course of thepandemic, leading to unprecedented price spikes and long lead times forkey construction components. The latest Bureau of Labor Statistics figuresshow that lumber prices grew 86% year over year in April 2021, whileprices for steel products increased 67%. The highest year-over-yearincrease previously for either material was 20%. “Material cost growth isexpected to outpace all other elements of construction cost increases thisyear,” says Henry D’Esposito, JLL’s senior research analyst, Construction, ina new post. “Some developers who were already taking a wait-and-seeapproach to projects during the pandemic are hesitant to jump back in forfear of buying at the top of the market.”Most of the steel and lumber used in the US is produced domestically, andpandemic-related shutdowns led to a major hiccup in supply chains. Butmany expected demand would go down due to a pandemic-fueledrecession, D’Esposito says, and for a while, it did—steel producers idledroughly one third of their capacity. But that slowdown was followed by aneconomic recovery that “caught the supply side by surprise.”Demand for lumber did not dip at all, rising 15% over the height oflockdowns.Esposito also cautions that builders should avoid locking in any long- ormedium-term prices at current levels. JLL notes in a recent analysis thatmajor commodities firms predict steel prices will peak during this quarterand will begin declining over the second half of 2021.Continue reading > BUILDERS ADVISED TO STOCK UPON LUMBER, STEEL ASSHORTAGES LOOMOODY’S CAUTIONS AGAINST RELYING ON THE OLD ADAGETHAT CRE IS A “HEDGE AGAINST INFLATION.”CRE performance metrics will likely continue to improve thisyear, though analysts caution the recovery will remainbifurcated. Research from Moody’s Analytics shows thatwhile industrial will remain steady and multifamily familyrents and vacancies will turn around in the short term, thefuture of office, retail, and some hotel subtypes is uncertain.“Within specific sectors there is chatter about repurposingspace: flex/R&D industrial space for life-sciencecompanies, with office space for hybrid workers; industrialspace devoted to data warehousing; with companies likeConvene and even WeWork positioning themselves asmonetizing what has traditionally been considered a ‘fixedasset’ by finding alternative uses,” the report notes.While multifamily performance metrics were slightlynegative in Q1, “it is quite likely that the worst is over for themultifamily sector,” the report notes. “There is evidencefrom real-time data points coming in that year-over-yearrent growths for new leases are up by over 5%—a tail thatwill likely wag the dog of the overall market with increasingmomentum over the remainder of 2021.”On the industrial front, quarterly rent growth forwarehouse/distribution was positive nationally for everyquarter throughout 2020.

Quarterly net absorption in 2022 is expected toaverage 11.7 million square feet, in line with the 2015-2019 quarterlyaverage of 11.6 million square feet. Net absorption is defined as the amountof space that is physically occupied at the end of one period, less theamount of space occupied at the beginning of the same period.Office Space Demand Forecast Figure 1 US Markets Quarterly NetAbsorptionSeveral factors are contributing to economic growth, with correspondingemployment gains in office-using industries. During the past year,consumers saved money at unprecedented rates, increasing theirdisposable income. Interest rates remain low, and states continue to liftpandemic restrictions. All signs point to an expansion in the economy withsubstantial support from an accommodative Federal Reserve and fiscalstimulus.As tenants begin to return to the office, it remains to be seen whether therewill be a lasting increase in remote work and how that might affect long-term demand for office space.“The macro economic data are positive, and the mitigation of the pandemicthrough vaccinations and other measures are having a noticeable impact,”said Thomas J. Bisacquino, president and CEO of NAIOP. “While the lastingeffects of the shift to working from home remain unknown, we do expectsteady returns to the office for many companies, and as a result, positiveeconomics for the office sector.”Continue reading > NAIOP: NET OFFICE SPACEABSORPTION TO TURN POSITIVEIN 2022, AVERAGE QUARTERLYNET ABSORPTION OF 11.7MILLION SQUARE FEETLast week, President Joe Biden submitted his proposedFiscal Year 2022 Budget to Congress, providing lawmakerswith additional details regarding the major infrastructureand social spending initiatives comprising his American JobsPlan and American Families Plan. In times of dividedgovernment in Washington, a White House budget isoftentimes described as “dead on arrival” as far as Congressis concerned. But with the Senate and House ofRepresentatives controlled by his fellow Democrats, Biden’srecommendations are sure to be given substantialdeference by lawmakers. Nevertheless, differences ofopinion do exist among members of the president’s ownparty regarding many of his proposals. As such, last week’ssubmission simply marks the beginning of challengingnegotiations that are likely to take place over the next twomonths.Included in the administration’s budget submission is theTreasury Department’s “General Explanations of theAdministration’s Fiscal Year 2022 Revenue Proposals.” Alsoknown as the Treasury “Green Book,” the explanatory textof the administration’s tax proposals provides answers tomany questions that NAIOP members, as well as others whomake their living in the commercial real estate industry,have been asking since Biden unveiled his infrastructureplans earlier this year.

But a series of delays, technicalglitches, and several tragic accidents have continuallypushed the date back to the point that many have wonderedif it will ever happen at all. The company’s glacial pace hasonly been made more obvious when compared with theirrivals in the commercial spaceflight field such as SpaceX andBlue Origin, which have made incredible leaps in bounds inthe last decade.Richard Branson watching Unity’s test flight.But now, at long last, it seems like Branson’s suborbitalspaceplane might finally start generating some income forthe fledgling company. Their recent successful test flight,while technically the company’s third to reach space,represents an important milestone on the road tocommercial service. Not only did it prove that changes madeto Virgin Space Ship (VSS) Unity in response to issuesidentified during last year’s aborted flight were successful,but it was the first full duration mission to fly from SpaceportAmerica, the company’s new operational base in NewMexico.The data collected from this flight, which took pilotsFrederick “CJ” Sturckow and Dave Mackay to an altitude of89.23 kilometers (55.45 miles), will be thoroughly reviewedby the Federal Aviation Administration as part of the processto get the vehicle licensed for commercial service. The nextflight will have four Virgin Galactic employees join the pilots,to test the craft’s performance when loaded withpassengers. Finally, Branson himself will ride to the edge ofspace on Unity’s final test flight as a public demonstration ofhis faith in the vehicle.If all goes according to plan, the whole process should bewrapped up before the end of the year. At that point,between the government contracts Virgin Galactic hassecured for testing equipment and training astronauts in aweightless environment, and the backlog of more than 600paying passengers, the company should be bringing inmillions of dollars in revenue with each flight.Continue reading > VIRGIN GALACTIC’S LONGROAD TO COMMERCIALSPACEFLIGHTBy Tom Nardi, Hackaday06/01/2021NEW MEXICO GREEN CHILEHEADING TO SPACEBy Victoria Shupryt, KOAT Action News06/01/2021Copyright: The Spruce EatsSaturday was a big day for Virgin Galactic, SpaceportAmerica, commercial space flight and New Mexico.After years of delays, Virgin Galactic’s VSS Unitysuccessfully shot into space after breaking away from itsmothership at 44,000 feet.

There is currently no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19).The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to thisvirus.The virus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person.Between people who are in close contact with one another(within about 6 feet).Through respiratory droplets produced when an infectedperson coughs, sneezes or talks.These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of peoplewho are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs.Some recent studies have suggested that COVID-19 maybe spread by people who are not showing symptoms.Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or afterblowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.It’s especially important to wash:Before eating or preparing foodBefore touching your faceAfter using the restroomAfter leaving a public placeAfter blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezingAfter handling your cloth face coveringAfter changing a diaperAfter caring for someone sickAfter touching animals or petsIf soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer thatcontains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands andrub them together until they feel dry.Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.Inside your home: Avoid close contact with people who are sick.If possible, maintain 6 feet between the person who is sickand other household members.Outside your home: Put 6 feet of distance between yourself andpeople who don’t live in your household.Remember that some people without symptoms may beable to spread virus.Stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arms’ length) from otherpeople.Keeping distance from others is especially importantfor people who are at higher risk of getting very sick.Know how it spreadsEveryone ShouldWash your hands oftenAvoid close contactCLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATIONTo keep you informed, we are posting dailyupdates to our website.

Breath tests have taken on a new, critical role in the pastyear.This month, an Albuquerque biotech startup announced itwas joining other companies that have rolled out newbreath-based technologies aimed at detecting Covid-19 insomeone's breath. BioFlyte's product, called the Sentinel,offers on-site testing in under one hour, as opposed tohaving to wait longer for other types of results.

THEFT&SECURITY Construction sites are common targets for theft and vandalism,costing companies large sums of money every year even whenpreventive measures are in place. Construction theft is often a crimeof opportunity, so companies must reduce the opportunities for theftif they hope to reduce the effects of this crime.Types of TheftAccording to a study conducted by the Office of Community OrientedPolicing Services at the U.S. Department of Justice, the most commontypes of theft from a construction site include the theft of lumber andother building supplies, tools, large construction equipment andappliances. Of these categories, only the theft of constructionequipment requires substantial planning and organization on thepart of thieves. The other categories can all be described asopportunistic crimes.ToolsTools and other small-scale building supplies are most often stolen byemployees at the construction site, according to the SecurityManagement website. While the financial loss from any one stolentool may not be great, the cumulative effect of employee theft can besignificant and can even bankrupt the business in extreme cases.Theft by employees is often triggered by a combination ofopportunity and motive, so companies should foster a goodrelationship with employees and maintain a frequent presence onthe job site to reduce company losses from employee theft.AppliancesAppliances such as stoves or microwaves are often stolen fromresidential construction sites, especially during a construction boom,when many new residences are being built in the same time andarea. Property owners often want the area to be easily accessible forpotential buyers, but this makes it more accessible to potentialthieves, as well. Residents are used to seeing construction workers inthe area, so they are not alarmed by the presence of strangers atnearby properties. Police are unable to patrol often enough orrespond quickly enough to catch thieves in the act. To reduce theoccurrence of this type of theft, don't install appliances until the newowners have taken possession of the residence.Continue reading > NEW MEXICOUSEFUL INFORMATION AND TIPSTYPES OF THEFT THAT AFFECT THECONSTRUCTION BUSINESSESBy Scott ThompsonLET US HELP YOU RECOVER YOUR STOLENPROPERTY AND PROTECT YOUR ASSETS!
