ENR’s editors used its opinion page to weigh the pros and cons of the Trump presidency for the construction industry and found that the cons heavily outweighed the pros.
The commentary, “Keep The Rule Exemption As Is,” claimed that construction should remain excluded from the U.S. Dept. of Labor’s proposed rule on apprenticeship expansion because union apprenticeship programs set the bar high on quality training and earning potential.
The article “Fire at Arizona Energy Storage Battery Draws Scrutiny” (ENR 7/8-15 p. 18) illuminated the potential hazards associated with energy storage systems and lithium-ion batteries and accurately noted that the technology “now make[s] up 98% to 99% of all new battery-type storage systems.”
Again, we must take exception to a recent article that misrepresents the reality of accreditation for construction-management programs in universities and colleges in the story “A Big Increase in CMF-PM Fees” (ENR 6/20 p. 44).
In her viewpoint column, “Managing the Construction Manager in a Cost-Plus Contract,” Barbara Res expresses a significantly obsolete understanding of agency construction management.
In your story on the Permanent Canal Closures and Pumps project in New
Orleans (ENR 5/9 p. 24), with regard to the severity of Hurricane Katrina’s storm surge in Lake Pontchartrain, wave heights were typically similar to those assumed for the design of the structures (IPET, vol. 1, p. 2).
This letter is in response to an ENR article, headlined “Bird of Pay” (3/14 p. 7), and a New York Times article, “Santiago Calatrava’s Transit Hub Is a Soaring Symbol of a Boondoggle” (3/2).
The article “CM Schools Boost Standards With First US Accreditations” (ENR 10/19 p. 17) is misleading in its title and inaccurate throughout much of the content.
