Week 26, Short Thanksgiving week!

We came back to some snow the Monday before Thanksgiving. Down at the railroad crossing the first section of casing was in place on Friday. Now they just needed to weld a couple more pieces on and hammer it through the bore hole-



In the end we had our casing in place with a ductile iron section of Effluent Force Main, ready to tie into the system-



At Lift Station-1 a manhole was installed by Owens Construction-





The next phase at the Mechanical building was forming up the stem walls around the UV room. These three shots show some of the progress-







Last week the Operations foundation was filled with fine gravel after the under-slab plumbing and electrical work was finished. Here is the foundation grade covered with visquene ahead of a concrete pour scheduled after Thanksgiving weekend-



An oil-water separator was installed north of the Mechanical building. The first picture is from last week when a hammer was needed to knock some rock out of the way-



Once the hole was deep enough Owens successfully installed the vault. That's all for this holiday-shortened week!
