04BUILTENVIRONMENTResearchers have completed an initialheat stress analysis of constructionworkers from New Mexico and Kansas astemperatures drop nationally.A former Defense Advanced ResearchProjects Agency funded researcher andcurrent Associate Professor of ExerciseScience at the University of New Mexico,Fabiano Amorim Ph.D., released datagathered from laborers at risk of heatrelated illness. In an abstract from researchers sent toThe Built Environment, it states: “noprevious research has assessed the heatstrain experienced by road constructionworkers experience in the summer.”Findings in New Mexico were gathered inlast summer’s heat from seven roadworkers with Hasse Contracting Co. Inc. Contractors with Hasse Contracting Co.Inc., according to Amorim, were renewinga bridge layer of concrete on a highway inPecos, New Mexico. The project in question: a $15.5 millionpavement rehabilitation of Interstate 25between mileposts 305 and 309.According to the study’s abstract, thepeak temperature for the day thatworkers were studied was 93.3 degreesFahrenheit.

Inc. laying concrete on Interstate 25 while being studied for heatstress in July of 2023. Copyright: Courtesy of Fabiano Amorim Ph.D.

05BUILTENVIRONMENTTwo out of the seven workers had peakcore temperatures that exceeded theOccupational Safety and HealthAdministration's recommendedthreshold of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheitfor non-monitored workers, indicating anincreased risk of heat stress.In Kansas, where 32 commercial buildingworkers were studied over the course ofthree days, peak core temperatures exceeded that threshold at a higherpercentage. Stockholm Psychologist Gunnar A.V.Borg in 1982. Despite these workers having a loweraverage RPE rating when compared to aprevious study; the researchers suggestthat as the peak temperature was higherin this context, road workers in this studywere at a risk for heat-related illness. Limitations were noted for both workgroups analyzed. The limitations arestated in New Mexico as being the smallsample of only seven workers and inKansas being that the study wasn’tconducted during the state’s peak heatwave.Copyright: Courtesy of Fabiano Amorim Ph.D.Participants, both in New Mexico andKansas, had their core body temperaturemeasured using ingestible telemetriccapsules, their skin temperature andheart rate measured using iButtondevices, and had their urine sampled. Relative and subjective metrics ofthermal comfort and physical exertionwere also recorded. Workers on the NewMexico job site on average had ratings of“light” perceived exertion with the peakresting between “somewhat hard” and“hard(heavy)” throughout the workday,according to the study. This scale rating perceived exertion, orRPE, is a model created by University of Image generated using text to image AIBoth studies concluded by stating:“future research is needed in roadconstruction workers on a larger scale”and that “there has been limited researchdone on implementation of coolingstrategies for workers.”In an email to The Built Environment,University of New Mexico AssociateProfessor and lead researcher, Fabiano

06BUILTENVIRONMENTAmorim Ph.D., said “we are applying tolarger grants to investigate on a largerpopulation and use the winter as acontrol condition.”The study was reviewed and approved byUNM and awarded a Small Study Grantof $30,000 by the Center for Protectionof Workers’ Rights in August of 2022.CPWR is a non-profit also referred to asThe Center for Construction Researchand Training. The organization fundedfour other construction safety studies, orSmall Study grants, in 2022. On October 26th, 2023, CPWRannounced new research findings thatidentified changes contractors havemade in health and safety.The report, Safety Management in TheConstruction Industry 2023, states that anaverage of 52% of constructioncompanies have made changes in the lastthree years to prevent heat-relatedillnesses or injuries. According to the report, the onlycompanies that exceeded this averagewere those that had 100 or moreemployees.

New Mexico goes through all fourseasons and that is not the norm in a lot of otherplaces. I always try to find time to just relax andtake in the scenery even if it’s for only a fewminutes. It helps me to appreciate the smallerthings in life, when chaos is all around, I have toremember to take a minute and just breath.Before we know it, we will be gathering with familyand friends for the holidays and that’s when thingsget hectic. Preparing meals, buying gifts, havinghouse guests and planning parties can beoverwhelming at times, so try to remember to takea minute, step away, take a deep breath andappreciate the chaos. One day that chaos will be amemory that you will look back on and smile. Someof my favorite memories as a child was thecraziness of the holidays, like coming up with thebest costume for Halloween, the smell of foodcooking all day filling the house at Thanksgiving,and the anticipation of finding out what was inthose colorful packages under the tree forChristmas.

In the 11th District, which is based inDallas, and takes in Texas and southernNew Mexico, “growth moderated in theservice sector, but rebounded inmanufacturing and energy.”Housing demand in this district“generally held up during the reportingperiod, despite higher mortgage rates,although contacts noted some seasonalsoftening.” Existing home sales dipped,while new home sales were mostly solid.Meanwhile, apartment leasing was solid,even as “rents and occupancy werelargely flat as supply continued tooutpace demand.”Employment growth in the service sectorappeared moderate, but “rebounded inmanufacturing and energy.”Economic activity in the 12th District,which includes all of Arizona, was stablewith robust retail sales, and prices andwages both increasing. Activity inresidential real estate slowed just a little,while inventories of single-family homesremained tight as “owners with existinglower-rate mortgages stayed out of themarket.”Employment levels in this district, it wasalso noted, slightly eased as “labor supplyand demand came into better balance.”The report added: “Hiring was somewhateasier with contacts reporting more jobapplicants, higher quality candidates, andlower employee turnover.”49BUILTENVIRONMENTWASHINGTON D.C.: As higher wagesfrom a tight labor market droveconsumer spending and businessesquickly restocked to meet strongdemand, the U.S. economy grew almostfive percent in the third quarter of 2023,defying forecasts of a recession.Continue reading >US ECONOMY GROWS5% IN THIRD QUARTERBy Robert Besser, New Mexico State News.Net10/30/2023Copyright: Canva Pro

Then the rate was at 18.1%.In the next decade, the rate slowlyclimbed to 25.6%, and entered a historichigh last year when it came in at 26.7%.The latest rate, notes the WashingtonExaminer, “can be seen as a warning forshoppers heading into the holidayshopping season.”In fact, adds the publication, the annualpercentage rate is now “making shoppingand paying off retail debt far morechallenging, particularly considering thatconsumers are already being hurt by highinflation.”Overall credit card debt in the U.S.surpassed the $1 trillion market inAugust, with outstanding balances oncards increasing by 18.1%. At the sametime, notes the Atlanta-based financialdata company Equifax, sixty-day paymentlateness has increased to 1.8%, up from1.2% last year.According to the Consumer FinancialProtection Bureau, Americans wereburdened with $105 billion in credit cardinterest in 2022. Of that amount, the lastfour months of 2022 accounted for $30.5billion—the highest such quarter rate innearly a decade.

The White House, at the sametime, issued a release saying that suchcuts would “endanger critical services forthe American people.”Continues >

111In September a government shutdownwas averted after Congress voted tokeep federal agencies open untilNovember 17 as former RepublicanHouse Speaker Kevin McCarthy droppeddemands for steep spending cuts.At the time, Democratic New MexicoCongresswoman Melanie Stansburycalled the agreement a "huge victory forthe American people," while ColoradoRepublican Congressman Doug Lambornnoted that a shutdown would have hurt"our servicemembers, their families, andcountless others in Colorado's FifthDistrict and across the nation."Meanwhile, the specter of continuedgovernment shutdowns appears to besecure: members of the U.S. Senate failedto achieve a required 60 votes needed topass the Prevent GovernmentShutdowns Act, which would haveinstituted a continuing resolutiondesigned to keep federal governmentagencies in operation until spendingagreements are reached.“We have the opportunity to endgovernment shutdowns forever,”Republican Oklahoma Senator saidbefore the measure failed.BUILTENVIRONMENTThe Internal Revenue Service may add toits payroll some 8,000 new enforcementagents in the next two years.That projection was made by DanielWerfel, in testimony before the HouseCommittee on Oversight andAccountability, who also said thatongoing slow response times andadministrative decisions by the agencyhas been due to a lack of manpower.The Commissioner of the IRS, Werfel saidthe agency’s ultimate goal is to have aheadcount of around 100,000 employeesby 2028.Continued Werfel: “We’re hiring not justagents, we’re hiring customer servicesreps, accountants, agents.”In projecting a 100,000-member staff,Werfel added: “We have published ourthree-year view of staffing, which I’mvery confident on because I can make keyassumptions about the needs and markettrends.

One result: whileonly 15% of calls to the IRS wereanswered in 2022, that number increasedto 87% this year.The Commissioner continued: “The IRSfor several years was unable to audit areasonable percentage of complexreturns of high-dollar groups, especiallywealthy individuals, large corporations,and complex partnerships.”But with the new funding via the InflationReduction Act, said Werfel, “We areturning that around.”BUILTENVIRONMENTPresident Joe Biden signed an executiveorder Monday that he said wouldpromote safe, secure and trustworthyartificial intelligence development.Continue reading >BIDEN SIGNS EXECUTIVEORDER FOR AISAFEGUARDS,PROMOTION IN THE USBy Nicole Maxwell, NM Political Report10/30/2023Copyright: Canva ProThe National Labor Relations Board hasreleased a final rule that expands thedefinition of a “joint-employer” under theNational Labor Relations Act.

Increased Construction Site Theft Linked toLumber PricesLet’s start with the base materials, like wood.Prior to the pandemic’s untimely arrival,lumber prices were already rising due totrade tariffs. Then, COVID-19 got going full-speed and forced the entire U.S. lumberindustry to halt most of its production.Nobody freaked out about this because thehousing market in 2021 was expected totake a dive, anyway.

That makes it anattractive asset on any thief’s wish list.Lumber is valuable, easy to steal, and a cinchto resell.
