Transportation and Utilities Report November 23,1998
1 The road crew is finishing off the big fill over the culvert on the Hazel project and will be moving in this week.
The neat area to work on is wet with possible springs and now,isn't the time to open these up on the road.
The dirt should all be in on the Agpro road. The plan was to gaall the fill in now and clean up as much as possible so SAP
come spring time all they have to do is prep the road top,regravel trim the slopes,rip the borrow areas and recover This oNi�
should be of no concern to the truck traffic that will be using the grade
3 I think we have the Torrington tower under control now We have had over flow problems due to the probes freezing in
the tank. A stock tank heater should take care of the problem.
4 The Huxley water sample came up unsatisfactory the last test It was pinpointed that the test was done on line that goes
to the coin operated water discharge and it has been not used in months The problem should be under control now
5 The gravel crew is finishing up graveling the blade grade down at Hesketh and will finish up the road crew and then
start stock pilling
6 We won't be starting any new dirt projects now with the graders The frost is in the ground enough to do damage
to the blades and machines.
7 We have had the radio boys out looking at our systems and seeing what our problems could be, and are I'll have more
information for you shortley
8 I have compiled a quick summary of the Torrington infrastructure assessment for council to look at.
