Government and industry officials attended the May 23 unveiling of several key training components at the Apprenticeship and Skills Training Center operated by the Utah Chapter of the Associated General Contractors of America in Salt Lake City. The new equipment consists of a concrete detention vault for confined space work and rescue training and a 24-ft-tall tower with a 28-ft-long platform for fall prevention training. The components were purchased with a $45,000 grant from the Utah Labor Commission, AGC member funds and materials donations.
Attending the unveiling ceremony were, from left at the front, Utah Labor Commissioner Jaceson Maughan, Utah Sen. Karen Mayne and 2017 AGC Chairman Michael Kurz.
