Charter Oak: 1.7 TCR = 60% of Communication tower construction BLS 2.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Charter Oak safety composite

Charter Oak scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
