SUMMARY OF CHANGES

Question received on May 12, 2009:

Question #1: I feel your answer to the jib question is incorrect. The operator will need to physically retract the extension and the electric winch or the electric winch on the main boom regardless in order to avoid the control boxes. If they fail to do so they will hit the control boxes with either configuration. The main boom elevation is well clear of the Electric control boxes. Therefore the main boom configuration, eliminating the jib extension should be allowed. There is a significant savings to eliminate the jib extension.

USACE RESPONSE TO QUESTION #1: The USACE concurs with your assessment that the winch will need to be retracted regardless in order to avoid the control boxes. However, the boom extension is still required to ensure safe clearances from the power pole, power lines and the power supply lines that feed in through the roof of the control boxes.
