    Bridge builder may alter concrete mix By DAVID PATCH, Toledo Blade
    In July, a federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration report faulted Fru-Con for failing to ensure that the crane was properly secured.

    Last week, the contractor appealed that finding and the proposed $280,000 fine that came with it, kicking off what may become years of legal wrangling.

    While Fru-Con expects to resume bridge construction using the second, identical crane, plans for doing so have to be approved by ODOT or reviewed by other parties, including OSHA and project labor unions, Mr. Rutherford said.
