"I've got 10 jobs going right now," he says. "We just completed a bridge demolition in Elyria. We have a couple of schools; one is in Chillicothe and one is in Youngstown." Baumann adds that these jobs vary from the Elkem and ISG projects in that they yield more secondary aggregate construction and demolition debris. B&B is recycling the concrete from these jobs using portable crushers.

Getting hack to the Elkem project, Baumann says, "ft's going really well. We're very happy with the equipment, and we're very happy with the customer. It's definitely a good winter job." C&D
