Boston, Massachusetts - William Trahant, the owner of William Trahant Jr. Construction Inc. based in Lynn, has had his construction supervisor's license revoked for a minimum of two years after the Massachusetts Board of Building Regulations and Standards took action for repeated safety violations and failure to comply with financial penalties.

• Trahant is ordered to return his license and halt work on any active building permits he holds until a successor is assigned or he regains his license.
