Construction Update - April 24, 2024
A very busy day at the lift station. We had been operating for a week with only one pump. The backup Rain for Rent pump ran for three weeks and died. It took a week to get the replacement pump which was installed and tested today.
File Construction and their subcontractors are on site installing the shade structure and electrical panels and other electrical hardware that will control the new lift station. PNM installed three larger transformers for the new lift station pumps. If the final cutover of electricity takes place later this week or next week, the new lift station could go live next week. There some complicated logistics that have to take place to make this happen as we do not want to interupt the flow of wastewater from the Tyrone townsite.
