Is it moving?
Every record shows two dates: the one the source gives, and the day Spezia last checked it. How the dates work
No FAA crane filing, EPA permit or public filing is matched to this project yet. Records are matched only when they name the project, its owner or its builder, so this page shows nothing rather than a neighbor's crane. They are checked again every week.
