Michels Pipeline did the joint trench and we installed the transformers and did the terminating of wire. • Michels Pipeline started installing utilities in Miski Meadows. This part of the project consists of 86 residential lots. • Began working on getting the infrastructure placed for the acquisition of Areas 3&4 in September. • Began placing wire heading north of the Waco substation in anticipation of Areas 5&6 that will be acquired in 2018. Areas 5&6 will be more work because Connexus is keeping their feeder in these areas. • Detroit Lakes requested mutual aid after a storm went through their city. We sent four of our lineworkers to help them out July 12 -14. ATTACHMENTS: • Photos—Waco 2 Substation Project Page 1 of 1 115
