Pangborn Update 29 June 2018

This week our engineers and team worked on finishing the ground grid and lining up excavation and construction companies to come in. Electricians were onsite locating and marking the new locations for the conduit that will need to be ran and the backfilling and removal of soil in our new location for our switchgear. We had plans to have a crane lift the switchgear on its pad to be moved the 12 feet, but the electricians did not believe that this was a solution that would suit them. Since our plans have changed for the location of our switchgear we will have to move back and replace the concrete pad that it sits on as well as rewire it all and retest it. That will entail removing all connections, pulling the switchgear apart, moving it and reassembling it in its new position. Scheduling, preparing and finalizing our site for the coming weeks of changes and finishing up to get these last pieces resolved was paramount in our progress going forward. Looking ahead to next week we will begin digging a new trench for the switchgear, cut the concrete for the conduit to be ran and have most of the excavating and backfilling done. Once our Switchgear and pad are moved and poured we can have our final testing done on our ground grid. We should be seeing the PUD on site in the next week to place their new pole, frame and temp medium voltage breaker for the mobile substation.

Shocked

Why give an update saying something will be done in a certain period with out any clue if it will or not. Just had a report that not one thing has been done in more than a month. Local electricians say they wouldn't touch this job with a 10' pole. What a mess!
