Elk River <br /> Municipal Utilities UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br /> TO: FROM: <br /> ERMU Commission Mark Fuchs—Electric Superintendent <br /> MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br /> October 10, 2017 6.1c <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> Staff Update <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: <br /> None <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> • Had 19 new house services. <br /> • Continue working on collecting data with the GPS for our ArcView maps as time <br /> permits. <br /> • We energized the Waco 2 substation on September 21 and put load on it September 28. <br /> • We have finished Miske Meadows 1st and 2nd Addition; the project consisted of 88 <br /> residential lots. <br /> • Michels Pipeline completed the installation of utilities in Miske Meadows 3rd Addition, <br /> allowing us to continue work on setting transformers, street lights, and terminating wire. <br /> There are 17 residential lots in this addition. <br /> • Acquired Areas 3&4 from Connexus on September 19. We are now in the process of <br /> changing out locks, removing tags from poles, and adding new signage to underground <br /> equipment. Throughout this process, we'll be verifying what's in the map book to make <br /> sure it's correct. <br /> • Continue installing the infrastructure in areas 5&6 heading north of the Waco substation. <br /> These two areas will be acquired in 2018. These areas will require more work because <br /> Connexus is keeping their feeder in these areas. <br /> • We have finished Prestigious Woodland Hills 4th Addition. There are 21 residential lots <br /> in this addition. <br /> • We have started rebuilding the overhead line south of 197th Avenue to 190 %2 Lane on the <br /> east side of Highway 169. Part of this line will be placed underground from 193rd Avenue <br /> to 190 %2 Lane. <br /> • Installed two security lights for the Parks Department; one at the dog park by Orono Lake <br /> and one at Auburn Park. <br /> • Bored in a water line for the water department along the south side of Highway 10 from <br /> Xenia Avenue to Simonet Drive. <br /> • On September 9 ERMU responded to a request for mutual aid in Florida. The call for <br /> mutual aid was for anticipated storm recovery work that would be needed in the wake of <br /> Hurricane Irma. ERMU deployed a crew of two lineworkers who worked to restore <br /> power in the areas Kissimmee and Lake Worth, Florida. The ERMU lineworkers <br /> responding were Scott Thoreson and Matt Schwartz. Scott and Matt returned home safety <br /> on September 21. <br /> Page 1 of 1 <br /> 94 <br />
