Immediate Response By Cat Dealer Network Speeds World Trade Center Rescue And Recovery Efforts
NEW YORK, N.Y. – An emergency can bring out the best in people. And on Sept. 11, 2001, it brought out the best in the Caterpillar dealer network. Ever since the terrorist attacks on the United States that fateful day, dealers all over the world are once again making good on their promise that help is just around the corner.
Immediate response to the New York City disaster site in addition to subsequent coordinated efforts made by numerous other Cat dealers across the country, helped volunteer rescue/recovery efforts get off to a quick start.
Within hours of the World Trade Center attacks, 52 light towers and numerous small generators were dispatched to the NYPD so rescue efforts could continue at Ground Zero throughout the evening. Later that same day, a convoy of 14 tractor-trailers fully equipped with generators, light towers, transformers and cable were dispatched and escorted via police escort into the city.
Support continued throughout rescue and cleanup efforts with dealer and corporate Caterpillar staff worked around the clock – some staying for weeks – to ensure critical power and light to Ground Zero and the financial district.
What made the need for power even more urgent was that two substations, along with transmission lines that tied them into the grid, were destroyed by the collapse of the World Trade Center Towers. The absence of these substations left thousands of customers in Lower Manhattan without electricity.
Consolidated Edison of New York (Con Ed), the local utility, mobilized several thousand workers to begin restoring power. In the meantime, it turned to the Cat dealer network for critical temporary power.
Con Ed acted immediately and began delegating generators to individual buildings to restore power to the affected areas. The mayor’s office provided a priority list, dictating which buildings could safely be brought back online.
“We were called into action as an emergency supplier of portable generators responding to the emergency,” said Jim Delaney, general manager of H.O. Penn Power Systems Division. “We had planned for this type of emergency in the past, and the Cat network responded immediately, allowing us to ship all sizes of generators, miles and miles of cable, and multiple transformers and light towers into the city.”
Delaney credits the accomplishment of the feat to the cooperation and support of the dealer network. Emergency power equipment from dealers all over the Northeast were brought in to help the relief efforts.
Equipment was staged in several locations to allow response flexibility. Generator sets, light towers, cable and other equipment was all up and running on the site by midnight on the 11th.
Before the equipment could be dispatched into the city, each piece was prepped for critical operation. Once generators and equipment arrived at designated dealer locations (rental ready), teams added extra safety measures.
“Although reliable rental units are always ready to go, we double checked batteries and filters so each piece of equipment was ready for the tough environment that surrounded the site,” says Glen Bouthillette, rental manager for Foley, a supporting Cat dealer. One dealership alone prepped 33 2-MW units. Nineteen of those were shipped directly into the city’s financial district.
Once equipment was delivered to the city, the next challenge was supplying operators and technicians to set it up and support it. Crews worked around the clock to hook up emergency power to the prioritized sites.
In total, H.O. Penn coordinated a total of about 80 service technicians. At any given time, the dealer had 40 to 50 service vehicles in the city.
A Con Ed command center was also set up near the disaster site. Con Ed dispatched assignments to dealers via the command center.
Dealer technicians walked job to job hooking up power modules and transformers based on the directives received from Con Ed. Once Con Ed techs located the main transformer to the building (which was often 208 volts), Cat dealer technicians wired the appropriate transformer and generator and set the cable on the street. Con Ed technicians then hooked the building to the generator. When that was complete, Cat dealer crews started the generator to power the building.
Y2K provided an extra layer of protection for the WTC terrorist attacks. In preparation for Y2K, many customers had installed temporary standby generators. These companies utilized the generators on Sept. 11, relying on dealer support for preventive maintenance.
“Buildings ingested tons of dirt and debris, the debris clogged the generator’s air filters, which had to be changed every few hours.”
To respond to the needs of its existing customers, a 32-ft. trailer was set up in the city and used it to coordinate the dispatch of technician crews and equipment.
Preparation paid off not only for customers but also for dealers. “In preparation for Y2K, we cross-trained mechanics and operators to deal with emergency situations like this one,” says Delaney. “It paid off because despite the chaos of the event, all the plans we had in place ran very smoothly.”
The coordination and cooperation of the dealer network were also a necessity to accomplish a second great feat – powering Wall Street so it could open just six days after the terrorist attacks.
After the disaster, New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani assessed the damage and announced the New York Stock Exchange and other major exchanges would be up and running on Monday, Sept. 17.
That meant the financial district needed additional power. Many organizations, like the NYSE, never lost power. Others, like the NASDAQ, had no power. Still others, like the Mercantile Exchange, needed additional power to open.
Working in conjunction with Con Ed, H.O. Penn delivered and installed 41 2-MW power modules and 27 miles of cable to the financial district. Shortly after daybreak on Monday, Sept. 17 the bell rang and traders, brokers and others who support the largest financial operation in the world began to return to work.
In the meantime, Con Ed had begun laying new cable – some of it in newly dug trenches, but most of it on streets where wood frame troughs had been built. Con Ed brought power in from other substations just a few days after Sept. 11, and began taking Caterpillar generators off-line. Within 10 days, just a few power modules were left running. Less than 20 days later, the last 2-MW power module was removed and the grid in Lower Manhattan was restored.
“The way Con Ed handled power restoration was incredible,” notes Delaney. “And the cooperation between members of the Cat dealer network was just as incredible. We all worked together to meet a common goal, and we all succeeded.”

EMC Networked Storage Selected by Volvo For New Information Infrastructure
HOPKINTON, Mass. – EMC Corporation has announced that Volvo Car Corporation has designed and is implementing a new information storage infrastructure using EMC networked storage systems and software. As part of a strategic initiative to better manage its competitive and financial information, the company will extract its business-critical data from The Volvo Group’s existing infrastructure and migrate it to an EMC storage area network (SAN) for simplified management. Following the acquisition of Volvo Car Corporation by Ford Motor Company, it became necessary for Volvo Car Corporation to separate its information from The Volvo Group and manage it independently. Volvo Car Corporation expects the SAN to grow significantly as the company consolidates applications globally. The simplification, automation and management efficiencies provided by EMC’s AutoIS software will allow Volvo Car Corporation to scale as necessary. EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC) is the world leader in information storage systems, software, networks and services, providing the information infrastructure for a connected world. Information about EMC’s products and services can be found at www.EMC.com.

Special Team for Biological and Chemical Threats Cleanups Created by LVI Services
NEW YORK, N.Y. – LVI Services, the national leader in full-service environmental remediation, has announced the creation of its Special Emergency Response Team (SERT). This elite team, drawn from LVI’s most experienced staff, has been specially equipped and trained to respond to any biological and chemical threats to public or commercial buildings, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. LVI Services, a private company, has taken this initiative noting that if there were a concerted effort to attack public and private office buildings, it would be imperative that the clean-up and rehabilitation of buildings occur quickly, efficiently and with trained personnel. Currently, government agencies and organizations lack the large-scale capabilities to undertake a major clean up of numerous buildings and as a result many companies and organizations might be left displaced for lengthy periods of time. Along with the leadership to form this group, LVI purchased new, state-of-the-art equipment that includes Level-A suits with self-contained breathing apparatus, to ensure the health and safety of its workers in the case of bio-terrorism.
