General Sessions & EventsGeneral Session Talk ShowRisk, Safety, Liability & ReliabilityMonday, May 58:00 – 9:30 a.m.Moderator:Scott L. Bressler, Butler County Operations Deputy, County Engineers Association of OH, Hamilton, OHSpeakers:Diana W. Clonch, President, D. W. Clonch, Columbus, OH; Dominic Guthrie, Transportation Services, City of Toronto, Toronto, ON; Wilfrid A. Nixon, PE, PhD, PWLF, Professor, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA; Sonja Simpson, Deputy Director, Division of Operations, Ohio Department of Transportation, Columbus, OH
“Snowy Roads Lead to Fatal Truck Accident”“Help! A Snowplow Wrecked My Car!”“Can I Sue the City for a Car Accident Due to Icy Roads?” “Pileup on a Snowy Highway: Who Pays?”
Many agencies believe they have little to no liability for accidents caused by snowplow activity or wintry weather conditions. However, an agency can be found to have “contributory negligence” in the event of an accident that occurred on property or roads they were in charge of safely maintaining.
Across North America the question of who is liable for winter weather accidents is being challenged in courts. In Ontario, Canada an appeals court ruling, upheld a $4.5 million judgment against roadway maintenance agencies for an “under-maintained” highway. Meanwhile, in the United States, where local authorities set most of the winter maintenance regulations, the trend is more and more towards anti-icing which attempts to prevent ice from ever forming. However, what happens if your Winter Maintenance Plan states you are going to anti-ice and slippery roads cause crashes?
So how do you know what the situation is for your agency? How does your winter maintenance plan fit into your protection plan? When do you have to pay? Why do service levels matter?
Join us for this interactive General Session to learn what you can do to keep your agency safe.
Closing General SessionKeynote Speaker: Steve GillilandTuesday, May 63:30 – 5:00 p.m.
A member of the Speaker Hall of Fame, Steve Gilliland is one of the most in-demand and top-rated speakers in the world. Recognized by his peers as a master storyteller and brilliant comedian, he can be heard daily alongside Jeff Foxworthy and Bill Cosby on SiriusXM Radio’s Laugh USA and Blue Collar Radio. As one newspaper stated, “Steve is what happens when the humor of Ron White collides with the inspiration of Zig Ziglar.”
In addition to his brilliant speaking career, Steve is an accomplished author, which is supported by his bestselling book “Enjoy The Ride” being on the publisher’s best-seller list for seven consecutive years and being named Author of the Year in 2010. He was also recognized by Who’s Who for Speakers and Business Professionals.
He built a multimillion-dollar company from the ground up on the same philosophy he expounds to his audiences: If you continually learn more about your company, your industry, your customer and yourself, you will always be a leader. You will be purpose-driven rather than process-driven, and you will make a difference.
So fasten your seat belt and hold on tight as one of North America’s most entertaining and motivational speakers presents his renowned ENJOY THE RIDE presentation. Through sidesplitting humor and reality-tested techniques, Steve Gilliland will reveal the way to face conflicting demands in an unforgiving world. This speech is straightforward, clear and easy to grasp—yet extremely profound. You will be talking about this keynote long after you hear it!

Salt Management & Salt Management PlansJunior Ballroom DSpeakers: Warren Nicholishen, CRS CIG, Supt of Roads and Traffic Operations, Town of Richmond Hill-Community Svc, PW, R Hill, ON
Snow and ice control are the key parts of a winter maintenance operation. Road salts are generally considered the preferred deicing/anti-icing chemicals for maintaining roadway safety, mostly because of their cost, effectiveness, and ease of handling. By constructing a salt management guide/plan, municipalities will be able to find and explore ways to more effectively manage their use of salt in winter operations while meeting the public’s expectation of safe and efficient road systems and minimizing the negative effects on the environment.

10:10 – 11:00 a.m.Education Sessions
Hoping for the Best – Preparingfor the WorstJunior Ballroom ASpeakers: Benjamin Dow, Director of Public Works, City of Fargo, Fargo, ND; Bret Hodne, PWLF, Public Works Director, City of West Des Moines, West Des Moines, IA; William Lee Perkins, CET, Transportation Operations Manager, City of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, AB
In West Des Moines, Iowa; Fargo, North Dakota; and Lethbridge, Alberta; the weather can be extreme at times. While these agencies often experience “normal” winter conditions, they always have to be prepared for the “extraordinary.” Whether these conditions include blizzards, ice storms, or spring flood events, preparations must be made to prepare for the worst. While these conditions can test even the most seasoned professional, advanced preparations and planning can minimize some of the impacts during the event. Come see how these three agencies plan for future “challenges.”
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. prepare for the worst conditions that Mother
Nature may throw at them, 2. analyze past events and experiences to prepare for
future storms, 3. anticipate that an extraordinary event will
eventually happen and get prepared.
Public Snow Removal withPrivate ContractorsJunior Ballroom BSpeakers: Ken Agent, Research Engineer, Kentucky Transportation Center, College of Engineering, University of Kentucky; Lex Matthew Arlinghaus, Branch Manager-Engineering Support, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, Ft Mitchell, KY
Since 1995, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, Department of Highways, has used the services of private trucking companies to assist in the snow & ice removal process. Standards for certain types of roadways have been set, and the assistance of these companies has allowed the Commonwealth to provide faster service to the taxpayers of Kentucky on both major interstate routes and local roads. This presentation will discuss the procurement and administration of these contracts over the last 20 years, and will provide some insight into Kentucky’s snow & ice removal program. A short presentation will also be given at the end regarding the KY Transportation Center’s study into the use of various types of rubber blades, as well as a look at the types and impacts of pavement markers in light of snow & ice removal.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. engage in discussion on whether contracting snow
removal services is a method of providing service where personnel needs fall short,
2. administer contracts where private companies provide snow and ice removal services on public roads,
3. develop procedures and policies to ensure that the public is receiving the intended service during winter storms.
The Case Study of a Small CityBig on LiquidsJunior Ballroom DSpeakers: Charles J. Novak, Street Commissioner, City of Cuyahoga Falls, Cuyahoga Falls, OH
The City of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, has a long and strong history with the use of liquids in snow and ice control. The street department, spurred by a vast supply of natural brine, began using it for snow & ice control by the mid 1970s. Through some trial and error in storage, as well as different application equipment and roadway applications, the City’s continued use of this valuable money saving product has evolved into some very innovative treatment methods. With literally decades of use of liquids in snow and ice control, Cuyahoga Falls’ experience can provide a footprint to help you understand and apply practical knowledge to successfully incorporating liquids as a major treatment type.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. illustrate the practical application of liquids over
years of use, 2. provide evidence of salt reduction methods while
achieving extremely good results, 3. enhance the understanding of liquid treatments
within winter operations.
Celebrate National Public Work Week!The 2014 National public Works Week theme, “Building for today, Planning for tomorrow” recognizes that what we do today is vital to a sustainable and vibrant tomorrow. Public works plays a key role in the planning, building and maintenance of infrastructure projects in their communities that will allow future generations to enjoy a higher quality of life.

Conference Program: Tuesday ContinuedThe Maintenance Community & the Weather Forecasting Community: A Mutual UnderstandingJunior Ballroom CSpeakers: Benjamin Hershey, Associate VP - Weather Services Ops, Iteris, Inc., Grand Forks, ND; Anthony McClellan, Sr. Transportation Engineer, Meridian Environmental Technology, Brownstown, IN
“I sure wish the road crews would do a better job of cleaning these streets during a winter storm.” “Weather Forecasting: the only job you can be wrong all the time and still get paid!”These common comments are indicative of the misunderstanding between those individuals that are responsible for highway winter maintenance and those assigned to forecast it. While weather forecasting and winter highway maintenance are based on science, there is also an art to both professions because each industry
deals with levels of uncertainty associated with current data and weather model information. This session will illustrate the challenges both communities face and ways to address them in a real-time situation. Perspectives from both communities will be shared along with tips for better understanding weather forecast information as it pertains to maintenance operations.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. interpret weather forecast information as it
pertains to maintenance and how to use that forecast for decision-making,
2. promote the use of detailed weather information for maintenance decision making,
3. explain how different weather forecast information is generated and why it is important to know the differences.
10:40 – 11:25 a.m.Exhibitor Solutions TheaterWebtech 511: How Agencies Are Utilizing Mobile and Web-Based Technology to Communicate with Constituents in Real-TimeExhibit Floor – Booth 1301
Speakers: Chris Jackson, VP Government Operations, Webtech Wireless, Toronto, ON, Booth 620
As municipalities race to keep up with demand for web-based communication systems, their constituents have abandoned fixed computers in favor of mobile devices, particularly smartphones. Today, the trend is toward increased mobile device usage by constituents–and the adoption rate is increasing. Webtech 511 is North America’s first real-time roads application for smartphones. It synthesizes multiple streams of information and can vividly show detailed snowplow route completion, traffic congestion, parking restrictions, and more, while integrating with other well-established systems, including emergency situation alerts. Learn more about the features of Webtech511, how it can help during heavy winter storms (similar to the winter we just had!) and hear examples of how it has helped municipalities communicate important information to constituents.

11:30 a.m. – 12:15 p.m.Exhibitor Solutions TheaterRecent Developments in Concrete Damage ResearchExhibit Floor – Booth 1301Speakers: Joseph B. Althouse, Technical Representative, Occidental Chemical Corporation, Ludington, MI, Booth 714/716
Concrete damage associated with freeze/thaw cycles and deicer applications is not a new issue. Research into the damage-causing mechanism began in the 1930s and it continues today. A problem arises in that conclusions from recent studies tend to conflict with those from earlier research. Which is right? This presentation will address this question by providing an understandable overview of concrete damage research and the experimental factors that influence whether or not research results are applicable to real-world performance.
1:00 – 2:00 p.m.Education Sessions
Creating Your Winter Operations Planning Document Just Got Super Easy!Junior Ballroom ASpeakers: Wilfrid A. Nixon, PE, PhD, PWLF, Professor, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA; Morton Satin, MSc, Vice President, Science and Research, Salt Institute, Alexandria, VA; Fahad Shuja, P Eng., Coordinator, Ontario Provincial Standards and OGRA Member Services, Ontario Good Roads Association (OGRA), Oakville, ON
Winter maintenance professionals need to create comprehensive, well thought out plans covering every aspect of their winter operations mission–a burdensome task when constrained by limited resources. Therefore, OGRA (Ontario Good Roads Association), with support from the Salt
Institute, has created a simple, yet robust and intuitive online web app to do just that. This breakthrough product was created by winter maintenance professionals for winter maintenance professionals.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. plan for and implement a comprehensive winter
maintenance program, 2. prepare a fully integrated winter maintenance
plan with associated documents, 3. make informed budgeting decisions and rationally
allocate available resources.
Indiana Case Study – Unlocking the Potential of Granular Material with Older EquipmentJunior Ballroom BSpeakers: Richard J. Domonkos, Training Specialist, Indiana LTAP, West Lafayette, IN; Rod Waltman, Road Solutions, Inc., Indianapolis, IN; Ed Ward, Tippecanoe County Highway Dept., Lafayette, IN
This session will cover topics that can significantly affect the winter maintenance programs of many local agencies. Industry experts will review the history of material spreading equipment and the challenges that local agency managers face when attempting to implement salt spreading best practices with older equipment. In addition, attendees will hear an Indiana county case study on the calibration of material spreading equipment and the reduction of sand in the salt-sand ratio. Other topics will include enhancing the effectiveness of dry material and reducing the bounce and scatter effect.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. measure the performance of existing equipment, 2. apply these performance measures to their winter
maintenance plan, 3. increase the level of service in their agency with
little or no financial investment.
Resource Management in Snow & Ice ControlJunior Ballroom DSpeakers: Diana W. Clonch, President, D. W. Clonch LLC, Columbus, OH
For public works agencies located within the snow regions of North America, executing winter maintenance operations is by far the single most costly maintenance activity performed. Efficient and effective operations are critical elements for maintaining levels of service during extreme winter conditions while managing on limited budgets. A key element for both efficiency and effectiveness lies within good resource management. This session will provide a review of associated resources: labor, equipment and facilities, materials, and innovative technology to help provide a pathway for optimizing operations.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. acquire an understanding of overall resource
management as applied to snow and ice operations,
2. promote and encourage outside-of-the box thinking for resource management,
3. identify tools necessary for optimizing snow and ice operations.

Conference Program: Tuesday ContinuedTransparent Boundaries – City of Ravenna & ODOT Shared Facilities & ServicesRoom: Junior Ballroom CSpeakers: Kelly Engelhart, Director of Public Service, City of Ravenna, Ravenna, OH; David Ray, PE, PS, District Five Deputy Director, Ohio Department of Transportation, Jacksontown, OH; Anthony Urankar, District Deputy Director, Ohio Department of Transportation, Akron, OH
When the ODOT District 4 Portage County Maintenance Garage was deemed unsafe due to structural issues, the District had to move fast to come up with a solution. Within several months, the Portage County facility was relocated to the City of Ravenna’s Street Department Garage. This move created the first shared services garage between two government agencies in Northeast Ohio with both entities sharing services, equipment, and training classes. Since then, a 7,000 sq. ft. salt storage coverall has been constructed and is being used by five different agencies: ODOT, the City of Ravenna, Ravenna Township, and two local school districts. The challenge of this move was combining services prior to the winter and being operational for winter storm events. This session will explain the logistics of moving one facility into another and involving the workforce, it also will focus on what had to be accomplished by both entities to make a smooth transition to provide winter services for our customers.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. plan for a complex problem by using
storyboarding and by involving the workforce, 2. coordinate shared services between state and city
for efficient operations, 3. demonstrate how different government entities
can work together for a common cause.
2:15 – 3:15 p.m.Education Sessions
Anti-icing with a Frozen BudgetJunior Ballroom ASpeakers: Raymie J. Eckerle, Street Commissioner, City of Jasper Street Dept., Jasper, IN
For over 10 years, the staff and mechanics of the Jasper, Indiana, Street Department have been able to design and make all of their anti-icing equipment in house. Using old equipment along with materials purchased from vendors, they have built all of their own brine makers, brine/”beet juice” applicators, as well as the buildings needed to produce/apply anti-icing materials while staying within a limited budget. During the planning and design process, other uses besides anti-icing where incorporated into the building process to be able to use the equipment all year long for other uses. Although municipalities have the opportunity to buy this equipment from some very good vendors, sometimes it is a matter of using very limited funds or not doing it at all.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. explore the opportunities they have available
within their departments to utilize underused or surplus equipment for anti-icing uses, along with other uses, throughout the year;
2. establish a plan that would utilize their own employees along with outside fabricators, if necessary, to build their own equipment to start or improve their anti-icing efforts;
3. budget their precious resources to perhaps start an anti-icing program they may not otherwise be able to accomplish.
Quantifying Excellence: ODOT’s Snow & Ice Performance EvaluatorJunior Ballroom BSpeakers: Howard Huebner, Highway Management Administrator, Ohio Department of Transportation District 12, Garfield Heights, OH; John MacAdam, ITS Engineer, Ohio Department of Transportation, Columbus, OH; Merih Ocbazghi, Transportation Engineer, Ohio Department of Transportation, Columbus, OH
The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), 2013 APWA Excellence in Snow & Ice Control award winner, developed a completely objective, data-driven snow and ice performance measurement tool using speed data in conjunction with weather data. This tool grades how quickly the motoring public can resume travelling at normal speeds following a winter weather event. After its second winter of use, learn about how ODOT has refined this tool to more accurately model maintenance efforts.
By attending this session, participants will be better able to:1. compare ODOT’s method of measuring snow & ice
control performance to their own, 2. examine how quantifying performance can lead
to the development of best practices across the agency,
3. encourage data-driven performance measurement in their agency.
