Here are a couple of highlights from the main article that caught my attention

• Rio’s city government is at times being forced to act like a bank, lending companies money to prevent a slowdown in construction
• OAS, one of Brazil’s biggest construction firms, filed for bankruptcy protection in March after its credit lines dried up. OAS is part of the group that is behind the very much delayed Deodoro Sports Complex.
• Mendes Junior SA backed out of a contract to fix the drainage around the Maracana soccer stadium set to host Olympic matches.
• Rio has admitted it will fail to make good on promises it made in its Olympics bid to improve the sewage system and reduce water pollution in the Guanabara bay by 80 percent.

It is after all one year until the 2016 Summer Olympic Games.

In fact, not one water venue was found safe for any water sports, swimming, or boating.

Now it is time for Rio bow out.

• Rio has only 10% of 56 Olympic Construction, overlay and energy projects are finished. This is in contrast with 80% for the 2012 London Olympic games
• State-run Oil Company Petrobras is embroiled in a corruption scandal, which has implicated several construction firms delivering Olympic Projects, is adding to the possibility of delays.
• Deodoro – The second largest cluster of Olympic Venues located west of Rio where 11 sports including equestrian, BMX Biking, and kayaking will take place is completely unfinished
• Deodoro has limited construction going on – mostly scaffolding about two stories high but nothing else.
• Contracts have yet to be tendered to build the beach volleyball stadium on the sands of Copacabana
• Guanabara bay – where sailing is suppose to be held – is a complete health hazard. The promises to clean the bay will not be cleaned in time.
• Temporary venues for rugby and mountain biking have not been selected.
• Power contracts have not been awarded yet. London awarded them in 20 months before the London games began. There are less than 14 months left before the Rio games begin.
