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 /> August 14, 2018 6.1c <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> Staff Update <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: <br /> None <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> • Had ten new house services. <br /> • Continue working on collecting data with the GPS for our ArcView maps as time permits. <br /> • Finished changing out some of our old overhead transformers in the city of Dayton. <br /> • Rebuilt the three phase underground to Elk River RV on Edison Street and installed new <br /> single phase primary for the RV and boat storage building across the street. <br /> • Continue to install the infrastructure in Areas 5&6 heading north of the Waco substation. <br /> This project was started in 2017 and is being done in preparation of the two areas to be <br /> acquired this September. As Connexus is keeping their feeder in these areas, this <br /> additional work is required. <br /> • Changed out a pole that had tested bad and replaced some single phase underground <br /> primary on 199th Avenue. <br /> • Michels Pipeline completed the joint trench at Trace Heights Second Addition, and we <br /> completed our portion of the boring and plowing. These were bigger lots without sewer <br /> and water so it was more economical for us to do part of it; there are a total of 18 lots in <br /> this addition. <br /> • Finished making up the infrastructure in the Tall Pines Addition; this addition has 27 lots <br /> in it. <br /> • Finished rebuilding part of 192 '/z Avenue in Area 3 that we acquired from Connexus last <br /> year. <br /> • Installed a new single phase underground service for the tennis courts at the Elk River <br /> High School. <br /> • Changed out a live front switchgear that was beginning to rust with a dead front <br /> switchgear by Home Depot. <br /> • Replaced a street light that was struck by a vehicle at the intersection of Main Street and <br /> Hwy 169. <br /> • On July 12, ERMU provided mutual aid to Princeton Public Utilities after severe weather <br /> caused significate outages. Zac Johnson, Derek Groebner, Mitch Girtz and Jared Rolstad <br /> were sent to help restore power. A thank you letter from Princeton Public Utilities is <br /> attached. <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> 170 <br />
