2014 ARTBA Annual Report 3

T he achievements outlined in the pages of this Annual Report are a reflection of ARTBA’s commitment to its core

mission: growing and protecting the transportation construction market.

ARTBA’s leadership activities through the “Transportation Makes America Work” (TMAW) grassroots lobbying and communications program, and in partnerships with like-minded industry coalitions, yielded solid results on the industry’s behalf during 2014.

We helped ensure that Congress: fully-funded MAP-21 with a $700 million increase in highway investment and $100 million increase for public transit; passed a short-term Highway Trust Fund patch that prevented federal funding for new projects from shutting down October 1; and enacted the first multi-year authorization for federal waterway and ports infrastructure funding in seven years.

In terms of protecting the transportation construction market, ARTBA “had your back.” We filed formal comments over 35 times on proposed regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), U.S. Department of Labor and its Occupational Safety & Health Administration, and the U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT). We helped positively impact the final proposal on the U.S. DOT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program, and took legal action in a potentially precedent-setting DBE case in Illinois. The association also earned an important victory when a final EPA regulation did not include the “one-size-

Chairman’s Message fits-all” requirements on stormwater runoff that the industry had long opposed.

ARTBA’s advocacy extended to the safety arena with the hosting of an industry summit at CONEXPO-CON/AGG on best practices to avoid work site incursion fatalities and injuries.

The association continued to implement key elements of the ARTBA Strategic Planning Committee report. This included: 1) the launch of the new “Transportation Investment Advocacy Center™” to help build and support a nationwide network of stakeholders most interested in moving the funding needle at the state and local levels; 2) hosting the inaugural “National Workshop for State & Local Transportation Advo-cates;” and 3) the rollout of a new, respon-sively-designed TMAW website containing info-graphs to communicate the value of transportation investment in new ways.

Of course, none of these successes could have been achieved without the strong and steady support of ARTBA’s volunteer leaders and state contractor affiliates.

Please take a few minutes to read through the pages that follow. And thank you for your continued support! We know you will be with us in 2015 as ARTBA continues to lead the charge on a permanent Highway Trust Fund fix and the passage of long-term reauthorization bill that increases federal investment in America’s surface transportation infrastructure.

Enactment of the first federal ports and waterways investment law in seven years.

Passage of an appropriations bill that fully-funded MAP-21 with a $700 million increase in federal highway investment.

Approval of a temporary Highway Trust Fund fix that prevented an October 1 shutdown of highway and transit investment to the states.

Submitted comments more than 35 times to federal agencies presenting the transportation construction industry’s views relating to implementation of MAP-21 and in response to an onslaught of proposed regulations.

Achieved a long-time industry goal when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued new stormwater runoff regulations that did not include controversial “one size fits all” requirements. ARTBA was successful in explaining to EPA that on certain projects the proposed standards could have resulted in up to $1 million in additional costs.

Played the principal industry leadership role in the 25-month federal rulemaking process relating to the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program that culminated in October with final rules revisions announced by U.S. Department of Transportation. The agency repeatedly referenced comments submitted by ARTBA and its chapters about the impacts of the proposed changes on project costs and the ability of contractors to bid on future federal-aid projects. The rule changes were wide-ranging, but in some cases not as severe as originally drafted in large parts because of strong opposition from ARTBA and its allies.

Expanded the scope of the “Infostructure™” webinar series with a variety of paid and free learning sessions on economic market conditions, Disadvantaged Business Enterprise program “best practices,” ethics and compliance, indemnification, construction contract site condition risk, and surety bonding on P3 projects.

Provided about 2,000 industry professionals from across the U.S. and the world with a forum for networking and policy discussions at 16 ARTBA-hosted or-supported events.

Successfully recruited nearly 40 firms and public agencies into the ARTBA membership fold.

2014 New Initiatives

Launched the “Transportation Investment Advocacy Center™”—a first-of-its kind education program and internet-based information resource (www.transportationinvestment.org) to help stakeholders successfully grow transportation infrastructure resource levels through legislation and ballot initiatives.

Hosted the first-ever “National Workshop for State & Local Transportation Advocates in the Nation’s Capital. Transportation construction executives, “better roads and transportation” professionals, state legislators, and chamber of commerce officials from 22 states participated.

Utilized latest technologies to roll out the all-new digital “Washington Newsline” and new ARTBA flagship website (www.artba.org) so that they are responsive to mobile devices and contain social media sharing capability.

Unveiled a new “Transportation Makes America Work” website and social media campaign featuring compelling info-graphics that show the value of transportation infrastructure investment and its impact on health and safety, children, family budgets, American quality of life and the economy.

Produced and distributed an ARTBA’s economics team-generated report on America’s structurally deficient bridges that was intended to draw public and congressional attention to the need to fix the Highway Trust Fund. The report generated hundreds of television, radio and news articles, including the lead story in “USA Today.”

Initiated and managed through the ARTBA co-chaired Transportation Construction Coalition a first-of-its-kind study examining the macroeconomic benefits of federal highway investment to the total U.S. economy.

Produced and widely distributed two comprehensive reports: an analysis of the potential impacts of the 2014 elections on the future of the nation’s surface transportation programs; and the results of more than 90 Election Day ballot initiatives seeking to increase state and local transportation investment.

Market Development

Fixing the Highway Trust Fund without generating any new revenue would require the equivalent of Congress passing and the president signing a 2013-level Murray-Ryan budget deal every year just to maintain current highway and transit program investment levels, ARTBA President Pete Ruane Feb. 12 told a Senate panel.

Annual Transportation Appropriations Bill ARTBA worked successfully early in the year to help build support for a final government-wide spending measure to fund all federal discretionary programs for the remainder of FY 2014.

The proposal largely adhered to the highway and public transportation investment commitments established in the 2012 MAP-21 surface transportation

law by providing: $40.3 billion for highway investment and $10.7 billion for public transportation. It also included $3.35 billion for the Airport Improvement Program, $1 billion for Amtrak capital and debt service grants, and $600 million for the U.S. Department of Transportation’s TIGER grant program, which supports inter-modal transportation projects.

Highway Trust Fund Through an integrated public affairs campaign, grassroots advocacy by volunteer leaders and state contractor chapters, and a continual government affairs team presence on Capitol Hill, ARTBA helped avoid a potentially devastating Highway Trust Fund shutdown. Absent congressional action, federal highway and transit investment to the states would have stopped on October 1.

“Peter Ruane,

president of the

American Road and

Transportation

Builders Association,

is one of Washington’s

most forceful advo-

cates for infrastruc-

ture spending.”

—“CQ Roll Call”

2014 ARTBA Annual Report 7

ARTBA unveiled a new TMAW website and social media campaign to provide members of Congress with plenty of sound bites to support their efforts to provide a sustainable, long-term revenue stream for future highway and transit investments through the Highway Trust Fund (HTF). It featured infographics that show the value of transportation infrastructure investment and its impact on health and safety, children, family budgets, American quality of life and the economy.

Page 8: 2014 ARTBA Annual Report

Among the other key TMAW programs:

To draw congressional attention to the state of the nation’s bridge inventory, ARTBA prepared and released a national and state-specific report showing Americans cross 63,000 structurally compromised bridges more than 250 million times each day. The analysis drew hundreds of national and local news stories, including a front-page story and map in “USA Today.”

To support the “member-to-member” efforts of some of our key allies on Capitol Hill, ARTBA partnered with the American Public Transportation Association to commission seven state polls on public attitudes toward federal transportation investment in states with key House and Senate leaders. The results were shared with the targeted offices and released in a series of grassroots media events.

To help build industry grassroots activism, at CONEXPO in Las Vegas, we distributed 50,000 marketing pieces for the “Transportation Construction Advocate” mobile app, which is downloadable in the iTunes and Google app stores.

To help support policy goals shared by industry allies, TMAW also financially supported the coordinated coalition advocacy activities of the 31-member organization TCC, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce-led “Americans for Transportation Mobility,” the “Ameri-can Infrastructure Alliance,” and The Road Information Program.

To keep the heat on key members of the Senate Finance Committee from both sides of the aisle, ARTBA Chairman Nick Ivanoff wrote a post-election op-ed that appeared during November in major daily newspapers around the country and called on Congress to work quickly in finding find a permanent solution for the Highway Trust Fund.

“The [American Road & Transportation Builders Association] report comes

against the backdrop of growing cries of alarm that the federal

Highway Trust Fund, normally used to pay for road and transit projects,

could be insolvent by the fall unless Congress acts.”

deficient bridge report

Ports & Waterways Infrastructure Investment Law In June, President Obama signed legislation to make new federal investments in ports and waterways. The $12.3 billion Water Resources Reform & Development Act of 2014, which had widespread bipartisan support in both houses of Congress, authorized Army Corps of Engineers dredging, port, inland waterway, levee, dam, and flood and natural disaster mitigation and recovery construction and engineering projects. It also included policy provisions to speed-up the project delivery process and authorizes dozens of specific projects throughout the country.

ARTBA and its Ports & Waterways Council, and the ARTBA co-chaired Transportation Construction Coalition, were strong advocates for the measure’s final passage.

ARTBA “has been vocal

about the need for a

long-term transportation

bill and has helped lead

the lobbying push

on Capitol Hill.”

Market Protection

A decision by the U.S. EPA to revoke a valid Clean Water Act permit from a mining operation in West Virginia could remove certainty in the permitting process and have ripple effects on the ability of public agencies and private firms to deliver urgently-needed transportation improvement projects for the nation, ARTBA Senior Vice Chairman Nick Ivanoff testified July 15 before a House subcommittee.

Regulatory Advocacy ARTBA continued to make sure the industry’s voice was heard regarding the ongoing implementation of MAP-21 and on a flurry of regulatory proposals. The association submitted comments more than 35 times to federal agencies on: project-related environmental reviews, silica, workplace injury and illness reporting, “Waters of the U.S.,” wage garnishment, P3s, fuel economy standards, Keystone XL Pipeline, categorical exclusions and ozone standards.

ARTBA achieved a long sought after industry goal when the U.S. EPA issued new stormwater runoff regulations that did not include controversial “one size fits all” requirements. Originally, EPA had wanted to include a single, uniform standard for runoff on all con-struction sites, meaning that a project in an extremely wet area would be treated the same as one in an extremely dry area. In a variety of forums, ARTBA consistently explained to EPA and other decision makers that on certain projects the proposed EPA standards could add up to $1 million in additional costs.

Coal Ash Victory In good news for taxpayers and the environ-ment, the Environmental Protection Agen-cy’s (EPA) late December decision not to regulate fly-ash, a byproduct of coal combus-tion to produce electricity, as a “hazardous material,” will help save American taxpayers $105 billion over the next 20 years. That, research by ARTBA’s Foundation found, would be the additional cost to build roads, bridges and airport runways if fly-ash, widely recycled as a pavement mix additive, was not available as a building material. ARTBA had been actively engaged in the regulatory and legislative debate in Washington over the fly-ash designation since 2007.

Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program & Litigation ARTBA took the leading industry role in the 25-month federal rulemaking relating to the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program.

Upon releasing the final rule revisions late in the year, the U.S. Department of Transportation repeatedly referenced comments submitted by ARTBA and its chapters, and specifically cited a nationwide survey coordinated by ARTBA in which nearly all contractors expected that proposed rule changes would add costs to projects, while nearly half planned to bid on fewer federal-aid projects. The rule changes were wide-ranging, but in some cases not as severe as originally drafted, largely because of strong opposition from ARTBA and its allies. The association also educated members about the final changes, hosting a series of webinars with FHWA officials and construction lawyers.

On another DBE-related front, ARTBA filed an amicus brief on the industry’s behalf in a federal lawsuit over questionable and politically-influenced administration of the DBE program in Illinois.

“I applaud ARTBA for creating this resource [the Transportation

Investment Advocacy Center]. We are all trying to come up with a

solution to the looming transportation infrastructure crisis.”

—Tina Grady Barbaccia, editor-at-large, “Better Roads”

Transportation Investment Advocacy Center In March, ARTBA Chairman Doug Black announced the start-up of the “Transportation Investment Advocacy Center™” (TIAC), a first-of-its kind, dynamic education program and internet-based information resource. The program is aimed at helping private citizens, legislators, organizations and businesses successfully grow transportation infrastructure resources at the state and local levels through the legislative and ballot initiative processes.

The cornerstone of TIAC is its website: www.transportationinvestment.org, which features nearly 40 detailed case studies of recent transportation funding campaigns—both successful and unsuccessful—mounted in more than two dozen states. It includes the actual television, radio and print ads, polling data, and media and coalition strategies used in the campaigns, and an overview of funding and financing mechanisms utilized to support state and local transportation programs.

Council of University Transportation Centers Under contract, ARTBA continued to provide management support to the Council of University Centers (CUTC), an organization of nearly 100 university-based transportation research centers that conduct cutting-edge research into transportation construction, management and policy issues, and help educate and train thousands of students each year.

ARTBA managed CUTC’s day-to-day activities, and many CUTC members are actively involved leaders in ARTBA’s Research & Education Division.

Women Leaders Council The Women Leaders Council (WLC), now led by Jihane Fazio, project manager for transportation at AECOM, continued to focus on implementation of its strategic plan, with development of

content on the ARTBA website, awards program, and webinars with industry women leaders. The WLC also co-sponsored a mentor program with the ARTBA Young Executive Leadership Council, met twice at major ARTBA events, and is focused on the promotion of transportation construction careers to K-12 students.

Bridge Council The Bridge Policy & Promotion Council met twice in 2014 and heard presentations from notable speakers, including: Romeo Garcia, a top Federal Highway Administration bridge engineer who spoke about accelerated bridge construction; Bala Sivakumar, an HNTB vice president who discussed bridge preservation; and Mike Keever, a California Department of Transportation deputy division chief who provided an update on the state’s program.
