No-Cost

Workplace
Safety
A
dapted
from
Information
by
Occupational
Safety
and
Health
Administration
The
Occupational
Safety
and
Health
Administration’s
(OSHA's)
On-Site
Consultation
Program
offers
no-cost,
confidential
occupational
safety
and
health
services
to
small-
and
medium-sized
businesses
in
all
50
states,
the
District
of
Columbia,
and
several
U.S.
territories,
with
priority
given
to
high-hazard
worksites.
On-Site
Consultation
services
are
separate
from
enforcement
and
do
not
result
in
penalties
or
citations.
Consultants
from
state
agencies
or
universities
work
with
employers
to
identify
workplace
hazards,
provide
advice
for
compliance
with
OSHA
standards,
and
assist
in
e
stablishing
and
improving
safety
and
health
programs.
Primarily
targeted
for
smaller
businesses,
employers
can
find
out
about
potential
hazards
at
their
workplace,
improve
pro-
grams
already
in
place,
and
even
qualify
for
a
one-year
exemption
from
routine
OSHA
inspections.
The
consultation
is
confidential
and
will
not
be
reported
routinely
to
the
OSHA
inspection
staff.
No
citations
or
penalties
will
be
issued
and
your
only
obligation
is
to
correct
any
serious
job
safety
and
health
hazards
-
a
commitment
you
are
expected
to
make
prior
to
the
actual
visit
and
carry
out
in
a
timely
manner.
The
service
is
delivered
by
state
governments
using
a
well-
trained
professional
staff.
Most
consultations
take
place
on-site;
limited
services
are
available
away
from
the
worksite.
The
on-site
consultant
will
start
with
an
opening
conference
before
beginning
the
walk-through.
Together,
you
and
the
consultant
will
examine
conditions
in
your
workplace.
They
will
study
the
entire
workplace
or
the
specific
opera-
tions
you
designate,
and
discuss
the
appli-
cable
OSHA
standards.
Consultants
may
point
out
other
safety
or
health
risks
that
might
not
be
cited
under
OSHA
standards,
but
nevertheless
could
pose
safety
or
health
risks
to
employees.
They
may
suggest
and
even
provide
other
measures,
such
as
self-inspection
or
safety
and
health
training
you
and
your
employees
can
use
to
prevent
future
hazardous
situa-
tions.
You
will
learn
not
only
what
you
need
to
improve,
but
also
what
you
are
doing
right.
At
that
time,
you
can
dis-
cuss
problems,
possible
solutions,
and
abatement
periods
to
eliminate
or
con-
trol
any
serious
hazards
identified
dur-
ing
the
walk-through.
You
will
receive
a
written
report
summarizing
the
findings
and
OSHA
will
assist
you
in
developing
or
maintaining
effective
safety
and
health
programs.
Remember,
the
consultation
pro-
gram
is
separate
from
the
inspection
effort.

of
sales
at
Vanair.
“Lithium-ion
technology
makes
these
units
lighter
in
weight
and
longer-lasting
.
.
.
The
result
is
a
compact,
lightweight,
and
reliable
source
of

Tales
from
the
Field
by
Jeremy
C.
Wire
Geoconsultants,
Inc.
Epilogue
When
invited
to
write
a
column
about
experiences
in
the
field
over
many
decades
which
might
be
of
interest
to
readers
of
WWDR
WWDR
,
I
thought
possibly
I
might
be
able
to
write
several
episodes
for
a
column
called
“Tales
from
the
Field”,
but
that
the
memory
of
this
old
guy
might
run
out
in
such
an
assignment
after
a
period
of
several
months.
However,
here
we
are
still
writing
a
monthly
column
almost
three
years
later!
Nonetheless,
time
seems
to
be
catching
up
with
the
spinner
of
these
“Tales”
and
he
finds
he
needs
to
take
a
break
or
pause
in
writing,
caused
by
the
intrusion
of
life’s
other
activities,
including
work,
all
which
seem
to
be
occurring
at
an
ever
accelerating
pace,
it
seems,
during
the
past
several
months.
This
does
not
allow
enough
time
to
think
about
past
episodes
in
the
field
and
let
them
percolate
through
his
brain
for
a
while,
much
less
write
an
interesting
story
about
them.
I
have
enjoyed
reminiscing
and
writing
these
“Tales”
and
hope
you
have
liked
reading
them
as
a
break
between
perusing
other
regular
features
and
the
advertisements
for
such
items
as
drill
bits,
drill
collars,
casing,
etc.
-
all
necessities
for
the
drilling
professional.
To
you
readers,
and
the
very
special
staff
at
WWDR
WWDR
who
keep
this
publication
going,
until
the
time
I
might
return
to
these
pages,
I
wish
all
of
you
good
luck,
good
health,
and
as
the
saying
goes,
“Keep
turning
to
the
right.”
Publisher’s
Note:
The
WWDR
WWDR
Team
looks
forward
to
Jeremy’s
return,
and
thanks
him
for
helping
us
serve
the

in-
dustry

his
knowledge
and
enjoyable
“Tales”.

Operating
Blasthole
Drills
from
5000
Miles
Away
Adapted
from
Information
by
Epiroc
About
two
years
ago,
Epiroc
con-
ducted
a
revolutionary
demonstration
of
its
cabless
Pit
Viper
being
operated
in
Garland,
Texas,
and
controlled
more
than
5000
miles
away
by
people
in
Stockholm,
Sweden.
The
demonstration
revealed
the
teleremoteand
autonomous
capabilities
of
the
Pit
Viper
being
used
in
mines
around
the
world.
During
the
event,
participants
took
turns
operating
the
rig
and
commanding
it
to
run
in
fully
autonomous
mode,
while
they
monitored
the
rig’s
progress
and
activities,
just
as
a
remote
supervisor
would,
with
Epiroc’s
Rig
Control
System
and
communication
interface.
Operators
in
Stockholm
weren’t
sure
if
there
would
be
a
lag
in
the
rig’s
reaction
to
their
control
inputs.
However,
the
rig’s
responses
were
nearly
instantaneous
using
a
traditional
ground-based
fiber-optic
network.
The
first
step
for
teleremote
operation
was
to
enhance
safety
by
removing
drill
operators
from
the
rig.
Soon,
the
technology
was
expanded
to
increase
productivity.
Although
this
rig
is
being
used
in
several
mines
around
the
world,
some
wondered
just
how
the
Pit
Viper’s
teleremote
capabilities
would
stand
up
to
overseas
teleremote
control.
It
operated
flawlessly.
This
test
involved
more
than
just
starting
the
rig
and
driving
it
around
a
parking
lot. It
really
put
the
rig
through
its
paces
during
two
full
days
of
10-
to
12-hour
shifts
including
autonomous
drilling
and
monitoring
drilling
operations
just
as
mines
are
doing
in
real-world
operations.
Operating
this
state-of-the-art
equipment
requires
thorough
training
and
for
that,
Epiroc
uses
its
Surface
Automation
Centerin
Garland
to
host
Automation
Boot
Camps.When
product
managers
and
product
specialists
attend
Epiroc’s
Automation
Boot
Camp,
they
are
educated
in
every
phase
of
the
process
using
the
same
equip-
ment
they
will
use
on
the
job.
The
camp
is
held
several
times
a
year
at
the
facili-
ty,
which
features
a
special
classroom
and
full-scale
automated
drilling
rig.
Attendees
are
able
to
control
the
rig
with
no
noise,
fumes,
dust,
or
vibration.
Many
are
surprised
how
the
joysticks
on
the
compact
control
pad
replicate
those
on
a
manually-controlled
rig,
which
simplifies
retraining.
The
operator
watches
the
drill
on
a
personal
console
screen
and
can
supervise
up
to
nine
drills
at
once.
Teleremote
and
autonomous
drilling
from
large
distances
is
no
longer
a
futur-
istic
thought,
it’s
available
now.
It
is
an
efficient
solution
to
increased
production
and
operator
safety.

Senator
Pleads
for
Royalty
Relief
on
Shallow
Water Oil
Production
Adapted
from
Information
by
the
Office
of
Senator
Bill
Cassidy,
M.D.
and
the
Institute
for
Energy
Research
Senator
Bill
Cassidy,
M.D.
of
Louisiana
is
urging
the
U.S.
Department
of
the
Interior
to
provide
royalty
relief
to
encourage
more
shallow
water
drilling
in
the
Outer
Continental
Shelf.
Offshore
oil
drilling
in
shallow
waters
(depths
of
less
than
500
feet)
has
been
in
existence
since
World
War
II.
At
one
time,
shallow
water
oil
production
in
the
Outer
Continental
Shelf
was
booming
with
more
than
7000
platforms
in
the
Gulf
region.
Since
November
2000,
shallow
water
o
il
production
has
declined
75%,
with
less
than
2000
of
the
platforms
remaining
and
most
of
them
producing
fewer
than
300
barrels
of
oil
equivalent
each
day.
Although
overall
production
in
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
has
continued
to
rise,
most
of
the
production
is
coming
from
deeper
waters
further
off-
shore,
causing
shallow
water
producers
to
struggle.
The
decline
has
im-
pacted
not
only
producers,
but
also
operators,
contractors,
and
oilfield
service
companies
that
support
drilling.
Senator
Cassidy
wrote
a
letter
to
Interior
Secretary
Bernhardt
stat-
ing
royalty
relief
is
needed
to
help
shallow
water
operators
stay
in
busi-
ness.
The
Outer
Continental
Shelf
Lands
Act
(43
USC
1337)
grants
the
secretary
the
authority
to
set
royalty
rates.
“Increased
shallow
water
drilling
increases
production,
which
increases
federal
royalty
payments,
and
creates
more
American
and
Louisiana
jobs,”
said
Dr.
Cassidy.
“This
begins
by
making
a
better
business
case
for
drilling.”
Providing
royalty
relief
for
existing
shallow
water
operators
will
encourage
business
activity
in
the
Gulf. It
will
provide
the
revenue
operators
need
to
open
new
wells,
invest
in
more
workers,
and
implement
new
technologies
to
update
aging
wells
and
infrastructure.
The
country’s
energy
resources
in
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
are
essential
to
meeting
our
growing
energy
demands.
“The
United
States
should
be
energy
dominant.
Shallow
water
producers
can
play
a
critical
role
in
achieving
energy
independ-
ence,”
said
Dr.
Cassidy.
S
hallow
water
oil
drilling
is
less
risky
than
its
deeper
coun-
t
erparts.
One
of
the
big
differences
is
the
blowout
preventer
i
s
above
water,
making
it
easier
to
maintain
and
inspect.

World’s
Longest
Subsea
Road
Tunnel
in
Norway
A
dapted
from
information
by
Volvo
Construction
Equipment
Norway
is
renowned
for
its
beautiful
narrow
inlets
(fjords)
along
its
western
coast,
but
for
modern
needs,
they
hinder
efficient
transportation.
Current
travel
along
Coastal
Highway
Route
E39
takes
21
hours
and
demands
seven
ferry
crossings.
About
a
third
of
Norway’s
5.3
million
people
live
along
this
important
travel/trade
route,
where
60%
of
the
country’s
exports
are
produced.
When
E39
exits
Norway,
it
continues
to
Denmark,
a
vital
entry
point
to
Europe.
Now,
using
new
tunnel
building
techniques
to
cut
travel
time
to
11
hours,
Norway
has
embarked
on
the
largest
infrastructure
project
in
its
modern
history,
set
to
open
in
2026.
The
official
name
of
the
subsea
road
tunnel
is
E39
Rogfast,
and
each
of
the
two
tunnel
tubes
will
carry
two
traffic
lanes.
As
the
world’s
longest
and
deepest
subsea
road
tunnel,
it
will
stretch
over
16
miles
and
lie
more
than1200
feet
below
sea
level
at
its
deepest.
Two
supporting
tunnels,
each
over
one
mile,
will
serve
as
ventilation
shafts.
In
addition,
every
820
feet
will
be
emergency
passages
connecting
the
two
main
tunnels.
Building
tunnels
at
such
depths
presents
challenges.
The
prework
of
constructing
a
tunnel
may
sound
simple;
however,
the
subsea
environment
involves
risks
and
requires
precision
work.
Blasting
foreman
Arne
Oddvar
Haugeland,
in
the
industry
for
nearly
50
years,
conducts
and
performs
the
detonations
on
the
subsea
site
in
the
Rogfast
project.
With
only
torches
and
headlamps,
this
is
challenging,
considering
the
large
volume
of
explosives
involved.
Days
consist
of
blasting,
loading,
and
dumping.
With
slides
as
a
constant
risk,
safety
is
key,
so
they
work
in
shifts
with
three-man
teams
to
master
the
machines
and
the
dark
environment.
When
complet-
ed,
this
tunnel
will
make
life
easier
by
speeding
things
up
along
Norway’s
west
coast.

I’m
constantly
amazed
at
how
many
openly
extol
the
virtues
of
innovation
and
simplicity,
but
when
it
comes
to
putting
these
principles
into
practice,
they
are
nowhere
to
be
found.
I’ve
been
called
a
“genius,”
but
those
who
give
me
this
title
don’t
accept
my
recommendations.
If
they
don’t
value
my
opinions,
why
do
they
ask
in
the
first
place?
An
article
from
the
Ontonix
QCM
Blog
dated
July
12,
2019,
titled
“Which
21-st
Century
Technology
is
the
Most
Dangerous?”,
I
believe
describes
this
phenome-
non.
QCM
means
“Quantitative
Complexity
Management”
and
is
a
metric
to
meas-
ure
the
level
of
complexity
of
a
project
or
process.
The
QCM
consultants
contend
that
if
complexity
is
not
countered,
controlled,
or
otherwise
managed,
we
will
soon
be
living
in
a
world
running
on
autopilot
without
anyone
knowing
how
it
works
or
how
to
fix
it
when
it
doesn’t
work.
It
is
an
apt
description
of
many
of
the
computer
control
systems
we
currently
have
“serving”
us.
I
put
the
word
“serving”
in
quotation
marks
because
often
it
seems
like
we’re
serving
the
computer,
and
the
computer
is
not
serving
us
very
well.
Many
organizations
and
individuals
want
high
complexity
because
it
allows
them
to
hide
incompetence,
mediocrity,
fraud,
and
inefficiencies,
as
well
as
avoid
responsibility
and
prevent
innovation.
Overcomplexity
also
allows
management
to
kill
good
ideas
and
keep
outstanding
individuals
from
excelling.
These
consultants
measure
and
quantify
complexity.
Why
do
we
measure
things?
One
of
the
reasons
is
so
we
can
make
objective
decisions
regarding
their
performance
and
practicality
-
objective
decisions
that
reflect
reality
.
.
.
not
how
we
“feel”
about
something.
Some
people
are
threatened
by
this.
I’ve
always
wondered
about
big
companies
that
lay
off
thousands
of
employ-
ees
and
still
maintain
the
same
level
of
service.
It
begs
the
question:
Why
were
these
employees
there
in
the
first
place?
Probably
because
management
did
not
logically
consider
whether
they
really
needed
this
or
that
employee.
So
laying
off
this
or
that
employee
did
positively
impact
the
bottom
line,
but
didn’t
negatively
affect
service.
This
same
concept
also
applies
to
computer
controls
systems.
Did
anyone
consider
if
we
really
needed
this
or
that
com-
puter
or
system?
Do
we
have
empirical
(verifiable
by
observation
or
experience
rather
than
theory
or
pure
logic)
data
to
sup-
port
the
purchase
of
this
computer
or
system?
Sometimes
satisfactory
automation
just
isn’t
possible.
Often,
companies
have
employees
specifically
assigned
to
monitor
certain
equipment,
and
if
the
employee
isn’t
there
to
do
it,
the
equipment
is
off.
I
know
farmers
who
could
purchase
many
products
to
monitor
their
farm
equipment,
but
don’t.
Why?
Because
they
figure
their
employees
are
around
observing
this
equipment
most
of
the
time
and
would
be
capable
of
either
quickly
fixing
the
problem
or
finding
someone
who
could.
The
bottom
line
is
automation,
when
properly
applied,
is
a
proven
time,
money,
and
equipment
saver.
When
automation
is
misapplied
-
meaning
used
where
it
should
not
be
used
or
is
unsuited
for
the
given
application
-
it
is
a
major
waste
of
time
and
money
and
can
even
create
hazards
that
would
not
exist
without
the
automation.
The
wise
controls
systems
purchaser
will
do
the
research
and
know
what
can
and
cannot
be
done
with
automation,
and
what
to
expect
in
the
way
of
mone-
tary
return
should
the
control
system
be
implemented.

Are
your
sales
results
not
living
up
to
your
expectations?
by
Tim
Connor
There
are
many
reasons
why
sales
effort,
a
lot
of
time,
allocation
of
many
resources,
planning,
and
so
much
more
can
still
lead
to
slow
or
poor
sales
results.
Having
been
observing
and
teaching
sales
strategies
and
practices
around
the
world
for
over
35
years
and
witnessing
numerous
stupid,
as
well
as
genius,
tactics
used
by
individuals
and
organizations,
I
believe
there
are
five
basic
reasons
why
sales
decline
or
slump
regardless
of
the
economy,
industry,
consumer
desires,
and
competitive
philosophies,
etc.
Many
sales
trainers
and
experts
might
suggest
it’s
just
poor
execution
of
“Sales
101”
-
prospecting
skills,
poor
presentation
skills,
or
the
inability
to
effectively
disarm
objections
and
close
the
sale.
Although
all
of
these
traditional
sales
methodologies
are
important,
I
believe
even
if
you
have
all
of
these
and
lack
the
following
five,
you
will
never
achieve
sustained,
increased
sales
results
and
income.
I’ll
keep
this
simple.
Here
are
the
five
reasons:
j
A
lack
of
consistent
execution
of
a
proven
process.
To
achieve
sustained
and
lasting
success,
a
process
is
required.
If
one
minute
you
are
selling
this
way,
and
the
next
minute
you
are
selling
differently
-
I
will
guarantee
you
will
get
inconsistent
results.
Let
me
give
you
a
quick
example.
Let’s
say
you
have
a
prospect
who
needs
and
wants
your
product
or
service,
and
you
have
been
trained
to
sell
it
a
certain
way,
but
because
this
person
seems
more
available
or
affinitive
to
you,
you
decide
to
adjust
your
approach
and
get
friendlier
than
normal
-
open
or
whatever.
As
a
result,
you
create
a
different
sales
envi-
ronment
deviating
from
your
standard
approach
-
one
you
are
unfamiliar
with
and
one
the
prospect
may
feel
is
a
bit
forward.
You
have
abandoned
your
process.
Now
don’t
get
me
wrong,
I’m
not
saying
you
shouldn’t
tailor
your
sales
message
to
the
style
or
interests
of
each
prospect,
what
I’m
saying
is,
if
and
when
you
abandon
proven
sales
techniques,
strategies,
and
approaches
for
something
new
or
different,
you
will
get
less
than
historical
proven
positive
outcomes.
I’m
not
implying
any
or
all
processes
are
successful,
the
best
approach,
or
any
process
should
not
be
open
to
change,
improvement,
and
updating.
I
don’t
want
my
heart
surgeon
sticking
with
the
process
when
it’s
his
or
her
instincts
to
adjust
or
adapt,
but
I
do
want
them
to
stick
with
protocols
when
situations
or
circumstances
warrant
it.
If
you
don’t
have
and
stick
with
a
proven
sales
process,
I
will
guarantee
you
live
with
a
great
deal
of
frustration,
uncertainty,
unknowns,
disappointment,
and
even
regret
from
time
to
time.
j
Reliance
on
a
single
marketing
approach.
Yes,
you
need
a
website
if
you
want
to
succeed
and
compete;
you
need
to
do
public
relations
from
time
to
time;
advertising
can
help
your
sales
efforts;
e-mails
are
necessary
occasional-
ly;
and
yes,
you
also
need
to
pick
up
the
phone
once
in
a
while.
Get
it?
You
need
a
successful
blending
process
when
it
comes
to
marketing
and
its
support
and
endorsement
of
your
sales
efforts.

sales
efforts
rely

Radioactive
Wastes
-
The
Public
Remains
Skeptical,
Part
One
Adapted
from
W
orld
Nuclear
Association
In
the
January
2018,
issue
of
WWDR
WWDR
,
America’s
Planned
Nuclear
Waste
Repository
highlighted
part
of
the
United
States’
plan
for
containment
and
storage
of
nuclear
waste
deep
underground.
To
make
this
possible,
the
drilling
industry
was
engaged
in
1994,
to
drill
and
blast
a
starter
tunnel.
The
custom-built
tunnel
boring
machine
(TBM)
created
a
five-
mile-long
horseshoe-shaped
exploratory
tunnel,
and
a
smaller
TBM
bored
a
two-
mile-long
diagonal
tunnel
to
test
the
rock.
Unfortunately,
due
to
lack
of
government
funding,
the
promising
nuclear
waste
stor-
ageproject
was
suspended
indefinitely.
Many
remain
skeptical
this
repository,
when
completed,
and
others
will
keep
nuclear
waste
contained.
Necessarily,
the
public
must
know
the
true
nature
of
hazardous
nuclear
waste
and
the
measures
implemented
to
ensure
its
safe,
reliable
storage.
One
misconception
is
the
nuclear
industry
doesn’t
have
a
nuclear
waste
solution.
But
technologies
for
the
final
disposal
of
nuclear
waste
have
been
implemented,
and
scientific
consensus
determined
HLW
has
been
contained
successfully.
Another
concern
is
the
risk
to
people
and
environment
during
nuclear
waste
transport.
To
allay
these
fears,
robust
125-ton
Type
B
9¾-inch
thick
steel
waste
casks
are
designed
to
shield
from
radiation
and
guarantee
containment.
A
relatedcon-
cern,
is
plutonium
is
the
most
toxic
substance
on
earth.
However,
plutonium,
in
equal
amounts
as
other
toxins,
such
as
ricin,
snake
venoms,
cyanide,
and
caffeine,
has
fewer
immediate
effects,
but
might
pose
a
risk
if
inhaled,
unlikely
because
of
transport
safety
measures.
Even
if
nuclear
waste
is
contained,
many
think
it
may
be
hazardous
for
future
generations.
Nuclear
waste
naturally
decays
with
a
finite
radiotoxic
lifetime,
usually
within
1000
to
10,000
years.
By
comparison,
other
industrial
wastes
remain
hazardousindefinitely.
International
conventions
and
national
regulations
have
set
guidelines
for
transport
and
long-term
storage.
Reposi-
tories,
the
product
of
collaboration
among
radiation
scientists,
geologists,
and
engi-
neers,
are
designed
to
contain
HLW
indef-
initely
well
below
the
biosphere,
even
during
severe
earthquakes.
Look
for
more
next
month.

Sometimes
we
forget
what
we
put
on
the
ground
can
end
up
in
our
drinking
water.
Before
we
commence
drilling
a
new
well,
it
would
be
advisable
to
learn
the
history
or
land
use
of
the
proposed
well
site.
1)
What
is
the
history
of
the
site?
Is
it
native,
unused,
or
developed?
2)
Does
the
land
have
a
residential
history
or
agricultural
usage?
3)
Are
there
any
prior
uses
of
concern
(i.e.,
gas
stations,
dry
cleaners,
manufacturing
facility;
or
is
there
a
possibility
of
buried
garbage,
etc.?)
A
new
well
can
be
a
huge
investment.
It
may
be
advisable
to
drill
a
test
hole
and
sample
the
water
at
the
uppermost
water
table
encountered.
Chemical
analysis
of
the
water
sample
can
be
relatively
expensive,
but
so
can
completing
a
well
that
cannot
be
used.
If
a
groundwater
sample
can
be
obtained,
it
may
be
worthwhile
to
have
a
chemical
analysis
performed
for
indicators
of
contamination
-
particularly
hydrocarbons,
nitrates,
coliform
bacteria,
and
iron,
as
well
as
other
parameters
specifically
related
to
prior
known
usage(s)
of
the
property.
Keep
in
mind
what
types
of
activities
are
believed
to
be
uphill
from
the
site,
such
as
agriculture,
septic
tanks,
land-
fills,
and
abandoned
businesses.
A
sample
of
the
shallow
water
prior
to
investing
in
a
producing
well
may
be
“well”
worthwhile.
Another
factor
regarding
the
protec-
tion
of
a
good
groundwater
supply
is
the
presence
of
low
or
impermeable
clays
overlying
the
target
aquifer.
A
few
layers
of
dense
clay
can
help
protect
the
aquifer
from
surface
contamination
if
the
clays
are
sufficiently
thick
and
extensive
in
the
area.
A
true
short
story:
I
was
once
required
to
have
an
annual
pulmonary
test
to
assure
my
lung
capacity
was
not
declining.
My
Pulmonologist
was
constantly
complaining
about
water
at
his
home
“tasting
funny”.
I
learned
he
was
on
a
private
well
and
it
had
never
been
tested.
A
sample
was
obtained
and
run
by
our
city
water
quality
lab
and
it
showed
TCE
(trichloroethylene),
a
known
human
carcinogen,
at
over
twice
the
max-
imum
contaminant
level.
The
city
provided
a
new
water
line;
and
the
contamination
was
found
to
be
from
a
tanker
truck
wash-
ing
facility
about
half
a
mile
away.

Notes

the
Groundwater

Thomas

Common
Causes
of
Well
Failure
-
Premature
Aging
In
a
time
when
we
are
asking
our
wells
to
perform
far
past
their
design
life
spans,
well
design
and
con-
struction
decisions,
as
well
as
maintenance
issues,
can
impact
the
life
and
health
of
the
well.
Poor
decisions
in
these
areas
can
certainly
result
in
wells
aging
much
faster
than
expected,
and
all
kinds
of
unexpected
prob-
lems.
Well
design
and
maintenance
issues
can
have
a
huge
impact
on
the
life
span
and
operating
costs
of
the
well
over
time.
Not
properly
rehabilitating
a
well,
for
instance,
can
result
in
microbiological
issues
such
as
sulfur-reducing
bacteria,
which
can
produce
hydrogen
sulfide
gas,
resulting
in
corrosion
of
the
casing
and
screens,
and
potential
premature
failure.
W
e
often
see,
as
a
cost-saving
measure
in
new
wells,
construction
which
incorporates
a
lower
grade
steel
casing
and
a
stain-
less
steel
screen.
While
this
may
initially
seem
like
a
good
practice
to
reduce
the
construction
costs
of
a
new
well,
in
actuality,
the
presence
of
dissimilar
metals
in
contact
with
each
other
produces
an
electrochemical
galvanic
corrosion
circuit
resulting
in
acceler-
ated
corrosion
of
the
lower
grade
steel
which
manifests
itself
as
pitting
and
eventual
holing
of
the
casing,
requiring
expensive
repairs
and,
eventually,
well
failure.
At
a
minimum,
where
dissimilar
metals
are
used
in
a
well,
a
dielectric
coupling
should
be
used
to
join
them
together
to
reduce
corrosion.
The
best
approach
is
to
use
all
the
same
metals,
preferably
stainless
steel
in
a
corrosive
envi-
ronment.
How
do
you
know
if
you
have
a
corrosive
environment?
The
most
scientific
way
is
to
run
a
Langelier
Saturation
Index
(LSI)
on
the
well
water.
The
LSI
can
distinguish
between
corrosive
water
and
those
likely
to
produce
mineral
incrustations,
so
it
should
really
be
standard
practice
in
new
well
construction
to
help
guide
design
and
construction.
An
easier
and
more
practical
method
is
the
nail
test,
where
a
common
steel
nail
is
submerged
in
a
sample
of
the
groundwater
from
the
well
and
observations
are
made
on
how
long
the
nail
takes
to
rust
to
determine
how
corrosive
the
well
water
is.
A
nail
that
starts
to
rust
within
hours
shows
the
groundwater
is
very
corrosive,
while
a
nail
that
goes
a
week
and
barely
shows
a
pinkish
tint
in
the
water
is
in
a
much
less
corrosive
environment.
Of
course,
the
LSI
is
the
more
quantitative
approach,
where
the
nail
test
is
a
bit
more
subjective.
Still,
they
can
both
point
you
in
the
right
direction
on
terms
of
well
design
considerations.

he
oversaw
many
construction
jobs
across
the
country.
He
was
hard
working,
and
enjoyed
hunting
and
fishing.
He
was
a
member
of
the
International
Society
of

Torger
Anders
Henckel
(1997~2019)
Students,
faculty,
and
staff
at
South
Dakota
School
of
Mines
&
Technology
(SD Mines)
are
mourning
the
loss
of
Torger
Anders
Henckel,
who
passed
away
after
a
fall
while
pursuing
his
passion
of
hiking
and
rock
climbing
in
the
Black
Hills
of
South
Dakota.
Born
in
1997,
in
Viroqua,
Wisconsin,
Torger
graduated
from
Luther
High
School
in
2015,
and
was
completing
his
final
semester
at
SD
Mines
for
a
degree
in
mining
engineering.
He
had
accepted
a
job
in
Tucson,
Arizona.
Torger
competed
in
both
the
Mine
Rescue
Team
and
the
Mining
and
Mucking
Team.
His
skills
as
a
mathematician
and
surveyor
clinched
the
SD
Mines
world
championship
victory
at
the
2018
International
Collegiate
Mining
Games
in
Cornwall,
England.
He
loved
skiing,
hiking,
rock
climbing,
and
just
being
outside.
While
hiking,
his
explanations
of
rock
formations
could
amaze;
then
he
would
be
off,
climbing
and
jumping
from
rock
to
rock.
Torger
is
survived
by
his
parents
Gregg
and
Nancy;
brother
Dietrich
(Ashley);
sisters
Marit
(Zachary)
and
Annika;
grand-
father
Ray;
uncles,
aunts,
and

Richard
Sebastian
“Dick”
Cuda
(1932~2019)
Richard
Sebastian
“Dick”
Cuda
of
Boca
Grande,
Florida,
and
East
Orleans,
Massachusetts,
passed
away
peacefully
at
home
October
10,
2019,
two
months
shy
of
his
87th
birthday.
Known
to
friends
as
Dick
and
to
family
as
Pops,
he
was
a
loving
husband,
father,
grandfather,
talented
entrepreneur
and
philanthro-
pist,
and
enthusiastic
fisherman,
hunter,
and
art
collector.
Dick
grew
up
in
Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania,
and
graduated
from
Shadyside
Academy
in
1950,
where
he
excelled
in
wrestling
and
developed
a
lifelong
love
of
the
outdoors
as
a
member
of
the
fishing
club.
He
grad-
uated
with
a
degree
in
finance
from
the
University
of
Pittsburgh,
joined
the
Army,
then
graduated
with
a
masters
in
marketing
from
Harvard
Business
School
in
1957.
While
employed
at
General
Electric,
he
specialized

approach,
they
achieve
fewer
positive
responses.
When
sales
activity
is
not
foreshadowed
with
some
market
exposure
or
not
supported
by
follow-up
activity,
you
are
relying
only
on
the
sales
effort.
To
get
better
and
more
consistent
positive
results
from
any
sales
actions,
it
is
a
wise
move
to
have
both
pre-
and
post-sales
activity
reinforcing
the
basic
fundamental
sales
message
and
customer
benefits.
j
Poor
product/service
messaging.
Have
you
ever
watched
a
product
or
service
commercial
and
when
it
was
finished,
you
were
shaking
your
head
thinking,
“What
was
that
all
about?”
I
have,
almost
every
day.
I’m
not
sure
how
some
of
these
ads
make
it
past
man-
agement,
but
someone
needs
to
wake
them
up
-
they
are
stupid
and
don’t
do
the
product
or
service
justice.
No,
I’m
not
going
to
be
specific.
I
just
want
to
point
out,
if
your
messaging
is
confusing,
contradictory,
or
can
be
perceived
or
interpreted
as
negative
or
derogatory
in
any
w
ay,
it
will
not
contribute
to
your
sales
success.
j
Overuse
or
underuse
of
specific
communication
techniques.
Technology
wants
us
to
believe
the
only
way
to
sell
to
people
today
is
with
social
media,
e-mails,
or
the
latest
techno
whiz.
Yes,
these
are
important
and
can
often
be
an
integral
part
of
lifestyle
today,
but
let
me
assure
you
“word
of
mouth”
has
not
lost
its
impact
on
the
buying
public
or
process.
When
the
average
customer
has
a
negative
product
or
service
experience,
research
tells
us
they
will,
on
average,
tell
nine
people.
And
those
nine
people
on
average
will
tell
five
people,
and
this
process
continues
on.
So
let
me
ask
you,
how
many
people
over
time
do
you
think
will
get
the
negative
message,
and
how
much
money
do
you
need
to
spend
on
promotion
and
advertising
to
counteract
this
negative
exposure?
Just
ask
any
organization
that
has
lost
customers,
market
share,
and
even
gone
belly-up
due
to
negative
press
and,
in
hindsight,
they
admit
they
failed
to
anticipate
the
negative
consequences
due
to
this
negative
experience.
If
you
think
you
are
going
to
hit
a
home
run
every
time
with
a
campaign
of
a
new
product
or
service
relying
only
on
your
investment
in
technology
exposure,
you
are
living
in
“Fantasy
L
and”.
I
can
hear
some
of
you
now,
“No,
Tim.
You
are
living
in
“Denial
Land”
and
just
don’t
get
how
people
are
buying
today.”
Okay,
you
are
not
listening.
I
didn’t
say
you
didn’t
need
to
use
these
media
sources
to
improve
sales,
I
said
you
need
to
not
rely
ONLY
on
them.
j
A
lack
of
execution
integrity.
Talk
is
cheap
today.
People
seem
to
throw
commitments,
promises,
and
so
many
other
things
at
cus-
tomers,
clients,
friends,
and
even
family
members
that
in
some
ways
they
hope
will
happen,
but
are
never
100%
sure
will.
Ever
left
a
mes-
sage
for
a
supplier
who
said
they
would
get
back
to
you
in
24
hours,
then
after
a
week,
you
still
hadn’t
heard
from
them?
Ever
have
someone
tell
you
they
will
see
you
for
lunch,
a
meeting,
coffee
at
a
certain
time,
and
20
minutes
later
they
finally
showed
up?
I
could
give
you
thou-
sands
of
examples.
The
common
thread
in
all
of
them
is
a
lack
of
integrity.
There
are
far
too
many
reasons
and
contributors
to
this
issue
in
today’s
sales
(and
general
relationship)
environment,
so
let
me
cover
one
simple
concept.
Does
this
lack
of
consistency,
integrity,
or
com-
mitment
-
in
your
opinion
-
contribute
to
poor
customer
loyalty,
poor
customer
relations,
poor
repeat
business,
poor
references
and/or
refer-
rals,
poor
word
of
mouth,
and
just
a
poor
reputation
in
general?
If
you
want
to
avoid
any
of
these
“poor”
issues
(outcomes,
results,
consequences),
it’s
simple.
I
know
there
are
many
more,
but
here
are
just
five
things
to
consider:
1.
Start
meaning
what
you
say
and
saying
what
you
mean.
2.
Stop
making
excuses
and
just
do
it.
3.
If
you
can’t
do
it,
or
are
not
sure
whether
it
will
happen,
don’t
promise

Drilling
Into
Money
Not
Boring
by
Mark
E.
Battersby
More
Records:
Key
to
Growth
and
Profits
Owners
and
managers
know
good
records
are
invaluable
for
monitoring
the
progress
of
the
drilling
operation
or
busi-
ness,
when
preparing
financial
statements
required
by
lenders
and
investors,
reward-
ing
when
trying
to
sell
the
business,
and
particularly
helpful
when
seeking
financ-
ing.
But
it’s
not
all.
In
reality,
most
drilling
contractors
neglect
the
recordkeeping
aspect
of
their
operation
either
because
of
a
lack
of
time,
or
uncertainty
about
what
is
required
and
which
records
may
be
important.
However,
having
a
clearly
defined
document
retention
policy
has
several
benefits:
efficiency,
safety,
and
peace
of
mind.
Accurate
recordkeeping
is
essential
to
many
aspects
of
a
successful
drilling
operation
-
from
assessing
the
operation’s
profit
margins
to
ensuring
compliance
with
the
ever-increasing
number
of
state
and
federal
rules.
After
all,
there
are
numerous
laws
and
regulations,
including
employment
tax
laws
-
such
as
the
Fair
Labor
Standards
Act
(FSLA),
the
Health
Insurance
Portability
and
Accountability
Act
(HIPPA),
Employee
Retirement
and
Income
Security
Act
(ERISA),
as
well
as
mandates
by
the
Occupational
Safety
and
Health
Administration
(OSHA).
And,
don’t
forget
the
many
state
and
local
document
retention
requirements
along
with
those
increasingly
more
complex
sales
tax
records.
Among
the
records
it’s
a
good
idea
to
keep
are:
j
Hiring
records
for
at
least
a
year.
j
Payroll
records
for
three
years.
However,
with
employees
able
to
file
lawsuits
for
unpaid
back
pay
or
overtime,
a
five-year
retention
period
might
be
best.
j
I-9
Forms,
required
to
show
an
employee
is
eligible
to
work
in
the
U.S.
should,
by
law,
be
kept
for
three
years
after
hiring
or
one
year
after
terminating
a
worker.
j
Separation
paperwork
for
five
years
after
termination.
j
Family
Medical
Leave
Act
reports
for
three
years
after
ter-
mination.
j
Retirement
benefits
forms
for
six
years.
j
Drug
test
records
for
five
years.
j
Employee
health
and
safety
records
for
five
years.
j
OSHA
requires
records
of
any
workplace
employee
injuries
and
illnesses
obtained
in
the
workplace,
be
kept
and
retained.
j
Unemployment
insurance
information
for
up
to
seven
years.
j
Contracts
for
up
to
five
years.
Records
and
recordkeeping
can
take
a
variety
of
forms
and
shapes.
Remember
however,
records
are
not
only
about
making
the
Internal
Revenue
Service
happy,
they
also
play
an
important
role
in
managing
the
drilling
operation
or
business.
To
avoid
identity
theft
and
protect
sensitive
business
information,
all
business
records
should
be
disposed
of
properly
or
shredded.

Oil/Water
Exploration
by
Harold
White
I have
written
a
lot,
and
to
some
it
is
unbelievable
or
at
least
seems
so.
I
imagine
if
people
knew
what
I
do
works
and
is
a
scientific
fact
that
I
can
find
rivers
and
creeks
of
all
the
fluids
(water,
hot
water,
steam,
salt
water,
gas),
I
would
be
a
busy
boy.
I
have
made
a
science
out
of
all
this
I
write
about.
The
flats,
or
Salt
Lake
area,
or
oceans
.
.
.
there
are
a
lot
of
places
that
look
good
being
salty,
but
a
lot
of
things
cannot
live
on
salt
water.
The
salt
creeks
have
been
carrying
salt
water
to
the
ocean
for
an
unknown
amount
of
years,
and
it
is
still
going
on
-
and
we
are
trying
to
drill
freshwater
wells.
Saltwater
creeks
in
some
areas
are
self-sealed
and
self-contained.
If
you
drill
through
one,
then
case
and
seal,
and
drill
on
down,
that
salt
creek
may
just
be
travelling
through.
There
may
be
a
lot
of
salty
layers
the
fresh
water
will
pick
up
on
the
way
up,
making
the
fresh
salty.
If
the
total
dissolved
solids
test
changes
for
the
better,
it
may
indicate
fresh
water.
Now
on
to
a
question
.
.
.
Who
believes
in
global
warming?
Well,
there
is
a
difference
between
believing
and
knowing.
I
think
we
all
believe
in
it.
It
is
written
on
the
face
of
the
earth,
accord-
ing
to
scientific
studies
and
pictures,
and
the
migration
of
the
people
and
liv-
ing
things
that
were
alive
in
that
time
period.
As
the
ice
receded
to
the
North
and
South
Poles,
it
was
followed
by
the
animals,
including
people
and
other
liv-
ing
things,
all
leaving
signs
of
the
migra-
tion.
Apparently,
we
are
still
in
this
last
ice
age.
If
you
enjoy
the
fear
of
this
one,
you
may
enjoy
thinking
about
the
next
one.

A
similar
thing
happened
to
me
in
Wyoming,
close
to
the
Wind
River
Indian
Reservation.
It
was
about
10
p.m.
at
night
driving
back
to
town.
A
large
owl
wasflying
alongside
the
pickup
at
the
same
level
as
the
passenger
side
window.
This
continuedfor
about
¼-mile
as
I
slowed
down
and
kept
pace
with
it.
Then
it
flew
in
front
of
the
pickup
and
stood
in
the
middle
of
the
road.
It
just
stood
there,
proud
and
defiant,
staring
me
down.
We
stared
at
each
other
for
about
three
to
five
minutes,
then
it
flew
off.
Since
I
was
close
to
the
Indian
Reservation,
I
immediately
thought
it
must
be
the
sprit
of
an
old
Indian
chief
guarding
his
territory
f
rom
intruders.
Blinking
the
lights
off
and
on
didn't
scare
it
a
bit;
it
just
stood
there
staring
at
me.
This
behavior
puzzled
me.
In
hindsight,
I
believe
it
was
flying
alongside
looking
for
mice
that
would
be
frightened
by
the
pickup,
and
it
could
pick
up
an
easy
meal.
Standing
in
the
middle
of
the
road
was
its
way
of
telling
me
to
turn
around
and
try
this
stretch
of
road
again
to
see
if
I
could
scare
up
any
mice.
It
was
a
puzzling
experience.
Interesting
to
hear
of
your
similar
experience.

Are
California’s
Wildfires
Contaminating
Water?
C

Bonnie
Love, Editor,

California
is
no
stranger
to
wildfires;
in
fact,
the
state
averages
more
than
5000
wildfires
every
year.
Over
the
past
two
years,
officials
have
discovered
something
unexpected
-
benzene
contamination
in
the
water.
It
all
started
in
2017,
when
the
City
of
Santa
Rosa
Water
division
received
a
complaint
of
foul
tasting
water
about
a
month
after
the
Tubbs
wildfire
burned
through
the
city.
A
staff
member
took
water
samples
and
found
contaminants,
including
ben-
zene,
a
volatile
organic
compound
(VOC)
the
area
had
never
tested
positive
for,
at
unacceptable
levels.
The
subsequent
investigation
revealed
a
potential
source
of
the
contamination
could
be
the
HDPE
(high-density
polyethylene)
and
PVC
(polyvinyl
chloride)
pipes
used
throughout
the
water
system.
High
temperatures
from
the
fire,
up
to
1500ºF
(815ºC),
could
cause
thermal
degradation
(pyrolysis)
of
the
plastic
pipes.
Other
circumstances
which
potentially
contributed
to
the
problem
include
a
loss
of
water
pressure
caused
by
the
sudden
increased
demand
for
water.
The
theory
is
when
the
system
lost
water
pressure,
it
created
a
vacuum
effect
which
pulled
contaminants,
including
hot
air,
ash,
and
char,
into
the
service
lines
and
distribution
main
lines.
It
is
believed,
some
of
these
VOC
contaminants
soaked
into
the
walls
of
the
pipes,
gaskets,
and
other
components
of
the
water
distribution
system.
However,
not
everyone
agrees.
Tony
Radoszewski,
president
of
the
Plastics
Pipe
Institute
believes
there
were
several
other
sources
which
could
have
contaminated
the
distribution
lines.
The
fire
burned
a
lot
of
organic
compounds
such
as
wooden
housing
frames;
asphalt
shingles;
appliances;
auto-
mobiles
with
batteries,
oil,
operating
fluids,
and
tires;
asphalt
driveways
and
roads;
all
containing
tons
of
hydrocarbons,
he
explained.
The
Carr
wildfire
in
the
summer
of
2018
burned
nearly
230,000
acres,
killed
8
people,
and
destroyed
over
1600
structures.
After
the
fire
was
put
out,
tests
were
run
on
the
water
supplies
and
no
benzene
was
discovered.
However,
in
October
of
2018,
the
Paradise
community
of
about
27,000resi-
dents,
experienced
the
state’s
deadliest,
most
destructive
wildfire
-
the
Camp
Fire. The
massive
fire
killed
85
people,
destroyed
14,000
homes,
and
left
a
charred
mess
the
size
of
Chicago,
behind.
Once
extinguished,
the
Paradise
Irrigation
District
and
the
State
Water
Resources
Control
Board,
Division
of
Drinking
Water
began
testing
the
area’s
tap
water
and
found
staggering
levels
of
benzene.
The
state
limits
of
benzene
are
set
at
below
1
ppb
(parts
per
billion),the
federal
stan-
dard
is
5
ppb;
initial
testing
detected
benzene
levels
averaging
27
ppb,
with
some
levels
as
high
as
923
ppb.
The
good
news,
testing
confirmed
the
area’s
groundwater
has
not
been
affected
by
the
contamination.
The
bad
news,
scientists,
engineers,
and
public
health
officials
still
haven’t
found
any
conclu-
sive
evidence
as
to
the
source
of
the
contamination.
More
research
is
needed
to
determine
what
is
causing
high
ben-
zene
readings
after
wildfires,
and
what
measures
need
to
be
taken
to
prevent
it
from
becoming
a
regular
occurrence.
Gina
Solomon,
a
clinical
professor
in
the
Division
of
Occupational
and
Environmental
Medicine
at
the
University
of
California,
San
Francisco,
will
be
look-
ingfor
answers
through
a
study
funded
by
a
National
Institute
of
Environmental
Health
Sciences
grant.
The
study
will
start
with
testing
the
tap
water
of
standing
homes
in
the
burn
area
for
32
chemicals.
If
elevated
levels
of
contamination
are
detected,
carbon
filters
capable
of
remov-
ing
benzene
will
be
installed.
The
carbon
filters
will
then
be
analyzed
in
a
lab.

The
“Idiots”
Corner
b
y
“Billy
Bob
Smith”
I
know
the
above
is
a
stupid
quote,
but
I
couldn’t
resist
it
considering
the
following.
Think
about
it.
Before
long,
we
will
never
have
to
leave
our
houses
or
apartments
to
buy
anything
or
get
any
personal
services.
And
I’m
not
talking
about
the
local
heating
and
air
conditioning
guy,
plumber,
or
AAA
coming
to
your
house
to
fix
stuff.
Don’t
believe
me?
You
can
now
have
the
following
delivered
to
your
homes
(just
to
mention
a
very
few
things):
food/meals,
groceries,
medications,
pet
food,
mail,
clothes,
furniture,
new
or
used
car.
And
also,
you
can
get
the
following
services
at
your
home:
haircuts,
work
from
home,
manicures
and
pedicures,
exercise
routines,
massages,
coaching/counselling
services.
You
can
even
get
medical
advice,
tests,
and
treatments
without
leaving
your
kitchen.
What’s
your
point
Billy
Bob
-
what’s
wrong
with
home
delivery
stuff?
Think
about
it
-
before
long,
you
may
even
be
able
to
get:
your
personal
funeral
services
.
.
.
your
minister
delivering
communion
.
.
.
your
doctor
performing
surgeries
.
.
.
your
eye
exams,
blood
tests,
and
court
proceedings
for
any
number
of
situations
-
at
home.
So
before
you
know
it,
we
will
never
have
to
leave
our
houses
for
any
reason.
We
will
be
living
like
aliens
in
a
strange
new
world
without
nurturing
human
relationships,
new
friendships,
new
experiences,
and
new
and
exciting
things
to
try
and
do.
For
some
people,
I’m
sure
this
sounds
exciting
and
even
positive.
For
me,
well,
it’s
just
stupid
to
think
we
can
get
and
do
everything
we
will
ever
need
without
taking
off
our
pajamas.
There
is
something
good
about
standing
in
line
to
check
out
at
a
store.
There
is
something
positive
about
interacting
with
other
people
while
shopping.
Now,
if
it’s
just
about
getting
the
stuff
or
saving
time,
I
get
it;
but
consider
for
a
minute
-
where
is
the
fun
in
never
leaving
home?
Unless
you’re
a
TV
junkie,
then
you
can
finally
spend
all
day
on
the
couch
and
get
everything
you
need.
Trust
me
-
if
that’s
your
lifestyle
-
you
will
sooner
or
later
need
the
emergency
medical
services
of
an
ambulance
at
your
house!
Have
a
wonderful
holiday
season
and
enjoy
all
the
drones
flying
over
your
house.

Through
the
Back
Door!
by
Jim
Kuebelbeck
Signed
into
law
by
President
Abraham
Lincoln
on
May
20,
1862,
the
Homestead
Act
encouraged
Western
migration
by
providing
settlers
160
acres
of
public
land.
In
exchange,
homesteaders
paid
a
small
filing
fee
and
were
required
to
complete
five
years
of
continuous
residence
before
receiving
ownership
of
the
land.
A
s
with
most
laws
enacted,
there
are
often
unintended
consequences.
Many
land
speculators
at
the
time,
hoping
to
make
future
profits
on
the
sale
of
such
land,
purchased
“dummy”
ownership
of
many
thousands
of
acres
of
government
land.
Many
circumvented
the
intended
requirements
for
ownership
of
the
land
by
making
“small”
improvements
on
the
land
(such
as
cutting
down
a
few
small
trees
for
a
supposed
future
farming
effort).
To
more
easily
justify
their
supposed
intent
to
establish
a
homestead
on
such
land,
most
land
speculators
selected
sites
along
rivers
and
streams.
True
pioneers
and
settlers
were
sometimes
left
with
no
option
but
to
file
homestead
claims
far
away
from
easily
accessible
water
sources.
Building
makeshift
structures
or
log
cabins
on
those
sites
was
a
first
priority,
but
the
acquisition
of
a
nearby
water
supply
was
the
second
most
important
necessity.
Wells
dug
down
to
shallow
surface
water
tables
were
the
norm
at
the
time,
and
with
the
min-
imal
needs
of
the
early
settlers,
these
shallow
wells
proved
to
be
quite
adequate.
The
digging
of
these
wells,
however,
often
con-
sumed
weeks
or
months
of
hard
labor,
and
all
too
often
those
efforts
proved
futile
when
no
shallow
water
was
encountered.
In
an
effort
to
avoid
such
wasted
time
and
effort,
the
early
settlers
often
relied
on
the
advice
of
someone
who
could
apparently
predict
the
presence
of
underground
water
sources
far
more
often
than
“the
laws
of
chance
and
average”
would
allow.
(How
some
of
these
early,
and
present-day,
water
finders
were,
and
are,
able
to
sense
underground
water
sources
remains
somewhat
of
an
unexplainable
human
faculty
to
this
day.)
Government
surveyors
and
geologists
at
the
time
referred
to
these
water
finders
as
delusional
and
superstitious.
(How
could
it
be
some
ignorant,
illiterate
homesteader
could
locate
a
groundwater
source
at
a
rate
better
than
the
“more
conventional”
methods
used
by
“professional”
people?)
Rather
than
making
an
effort
to
discover
how
this
might
be
possible,
it
was
far
easier
to
simply
refer
to
these
early
water
finders
as
“water
witches”.
The
infamous
Salem,
Massachusetts
Witch
Trials
of
1692
were
still
present
in
the
psyche
of
many
people
at
the
time,
and
the
term
“water
witching”
soon
became
synonymous
in
the
minds
of
many
people
as
a
reference
to
the
“occult”.
My
belief
is
our
Creator
envisioned
a
time
in
the
future
when
mankind
will
have
learned
to
use
and
protect
our
precious
ground-
water
sources,
and
in
His
wisdom
continues
to
endow
certain
individuals
with
the
ability
to
locate
these
precious
underground
water
sources
for
future
generations.

Adapted

Information
by

Geothermal
Power
and
Oroco Utilities
Drilling
to
establish
the
first
deep
geo-
thermal
electricity
plant
in
the
United
Kingdom
(UK)
has
been
successfully
com-
pleted
at
United
Downs
Industrial
Park
in
Redruth,
Cornwall.
Geothermal
Engineering
L
imited
(GEL)
was
contracted
to
drill
the
deepest
well
on
UK
soil
at
around
16,700
feet.
The
well
also
proved
to
be
the
hottest,
with
temperatures
of
approximately
383ºF
(195ºC),
with
initial
flow
tests
suggesting
the
project
is
capable
of
producing
the
UK’s
first
geothermal
electricity.
To
establish
the
United
Downs
power
plant,
two
deep
geothermal
wells
have
been
drilled
into
the
hot
granite
rocks
beneath
the
site.
The
wells
are
directional
(j-shaped)
to
intercept
a
target
geological
structure
(the
Porthtowan
Fault).
The
natural
structure
enables
water
to
be
circulated
through
the
hot
rock
from
the
injection
well
to
the
production
well
in
a
continuous
cycle.
As
the
water
moves
through
the
rocks,
it
picks
up
heat
which
is
extracted
and
converted
to
elec-
tricity
at
the
surface.
The
project
was
established
by
GEL
to
demonstrate
the
potential
of
the
deep
geothermal
resource
in
the
UK
for
pro-
ducing
carbon-free
electricity
and
heat.
The
United
Downs
plant
is
expected
to
supply
up
to
three
megawatts
of
electrici-
ty,
which
is
enough
energy
to
power
3000
homes.
Dr.
Ryan
Law,
managing
director
of
Geothermal
Engineering
Ltd
said,
“We
are
delighted
to
have
completed
the
drilling
of
these
technically
challenging
wells.
Reaching
our
target
at
the
Porthtowan
Fault
Zone,
at
such
a
depth,
was
a
fantastic
achievement
in
geo-
logical
and
engineering
terms
and
the
initial
flow
test
are
very
exciting
for
unlocking
the
potential
of
the
granite
in
Cornwall.”
Now
that
drilling
has
finished,
the
third
phase
of
the
program,
evaluation
which
is
expected
to
run
until
spring
of
next
year,
will
begin.
The
first
part
will
be
to
remove
a
tem-
porary
downhole
packer
from
UD-1
and
carry
out
more
downhole
logging
measure-
ments.
Both
wells
intersected
the
Porthtowan
Fault
at
the
predicted
depth
and
downhole
measurements
confirmed
plenty
of
natural
fractures,
indicating
good
permeability.
However,
a
series
of
measurements
and
hydraulic
tests
are
necessary
to
evaluate
the
fault
structure
to
make
sure
the
wells
are
in
good
condition
and
evaluate
the
amount
of
geothermal
energy
which
can
be
harnessed.

Dispelling
the
Myths
Surrounding
Hydraulic
Fracturing
Part
2
Adapted
from a
Policy
Brief
by
The
Heartland
Institute
M
yth

-
Hydraulic
Fracturing
Pollutes
Our
Air
-
This
myth
claims
air
emissions
from
hydraulic
fracturing
sites
create
significant
and
widespread
health
problems.
However,
evidence
from
shale
plays
all
over
the
United
States
proves
this
is
incorrect.
In
fact,
numer-
ous
studies
have
been
conducted
by
various
agencies
and
governments
including:
Colorado
Department
of
Public
Health
and
Environment
-
The
report
found
levels
of
air
pollution
created
at
active
gas
and
oil
g
as
drilling
operations
in
or
near
residential
areas
are
too
low
to
pose
serious
health
problems,
even
when
the
data
was
adjusted
to
account
for
people
who
are
more
sensitive
to
air
pollution,
such
as
those
with
asthma.
The
report
concluded,
“All
measured
air
c
oncentrations
were
below
short-
and
long-term
safe
levels
of
exposure
for
noncancer
health
effects,
even
for
sensitive
populations.”
University
of
Texas
at
Arlington
-
Analysis
revealed
air
quality
surrounding
hydraulic
fracturing
drilling
operations
in
the
Eagle
Ford
Shale
was
well
within
acceptable
limits.
In
2015,
a
Modern
Geosciences
study
of
the
Barnett
Shale
in
the
Lone
Star
State
found
none
of
the
observed
volatile
organic
compounds
(VOCs)
were
above
state-mandated
public
health
levels.
The
results
supported
a
previous
study
of
the
Barnett
Shale
which
found
“shale
gas
activities
have
not
resulted
in
VOC
levels
that
pose
a
health
concern.”
Drexel
University
-
Researchers
examined
the
Marcellus
region
of
Pennsylvania,
and
did
not
observe
elevated
levels
of
any
“light
aromatic
compounds
(benzene,
toluene,
etc.)”
at
well
sites,
and
“few
emissions
of
nonalkane
VOCs
.
.
.
from
Marcellus
Shale
devel-
opment.”
Utah
Division
of
Air
Quality,
Region
8
of
the
Environmental
Protection
Agency
and
the
Ute
Indian
Tribe
-
This
multiyear
study
examined
the
VOC
emissions
in
the
Uinta
Basin. What
they
dis-
covered
is
VOC
emission
levels
were
much
lower
than
previously
estimated.
“The
emissions
inven-
tory
shows
basin-wide
emissions
of
VOCs,
thought
by
scientists
to
be
the
main
drivers
of
ozone
formation
in
the
basin,
are
49%
lower
than
previous
inventory
estimates,”
a
press
release
noted.
“Like
in
other
oil
and
natural
gas
basins,
the
new
inventory
revealed
primary
VOCs
have
lower
potency
for
driving
ozone.
That’s
especially
important
because
the
oil
and
natural
gas
industry
is
the
largest
contributor
of
VOC
emissions
in
the
Uinta
Basin.
However,
this
downward
revision
of
VOC
emissions
is
yet
another
example
of
how
industry
has
been
able
to
reduce
emissions
while
maintaining
strong
growth
in
oil
and
natural
gas
production.”
United
Kingdom
Department
of
Health
-
The
department
issued
a
report
concluding
“the
poten-
tial
risks
to
public
health
from
exposure
to
the
emissions
associated
with
shale
gas
extraction
are
low
if
the
operations
are
properly
run
and
regulated.”
The
U.S.
has
revolutionized
the
country’s
gas
and
oil
production
through
the
use
of
hydraulic
fracturing,
leading
to
a
substantial
increase
in
oil
production
(up
80%),
and
natural
gas
production
(up
51%)
from
2005.
The
interesting
fact
is
national
air
pollution
has
con-
tinued
to
decline
over
this
period
of
increased
production.

The
Un-Comfort
Zone
II
by
Robert
Evans
Wilson,
Jr.
Creativity
Hates
Freedom
In
1960,
Publisher
Bennett
Cerf
bet
Theodor
“Dr.
Seuss”
Geisel
$50
that
he
could
not
write
a
best-
selling
children’s
book
using
fewer
than
100
unique
words.
Cerf
likely
figured
it
was
a
sucker
bet
because
three
years
earlier,
Dr.
Seuss
was
asked
by
William
Spaulding,
a
director
at
book
publisher
Houghton
Mifflin,
to
write
a
compelling
children’s
book
using
only
225
distinct
words.
He
was
to
choose
the
words
from
a
standard
first
grade
vocabulary
list
of
348
words.
Geisel
failed
and
ended
up
using
236
to
write
the
best-selling
book,
The
Cat
in
the
Hat
.
Which,
at
the
time
of
Cerf’s
bet,
had
already
sold
one
million
copies.
Dr.
Seuss
accepted
Cerf’s
bet
and
upped
the
challenge
by
stating
he
would
write
a
best-selling
children’s
book
using
only
50
words.
A
few
months
later,
he
delivered
the
62-page,
Green
Eggs
and
Ham
using
exactly
50
unique
words.
Those
50
words
are:
a,
am,
and,
anywhere,
are,
be,
boat,
box,
car,
could,
dark,
do,
eat,
eggs,
fox,
goat,
good,
green,
ham,
here,
house,
I,
if,
in,
let,
like,
may,
me,
mouse,
not,
on,
or,
rain,
Sam,
say,
see,
so,
thank,
that,
the,
them,
there,
they,
train,
tree,
try,
will,
with,
would,
you.
I
was
surprised
to
see
the
word
“taste”
is
not
included!
The
story
of
Sam-I-am,
who
tries
to
get
someone
to
taste
his
dish
of
green
eggs
and
ham
became
an
immediate
best-
seller.
It
is
the
fourth
highest
selling
English
language
children’s
book
in
history,
and
to
date
has
sold
more
than
eight
million
copies.
Dr.
Seuss
was
challenged
by
a
boundary.
Boundaries
and
constraints
help
stimulate
creative
thinking.
This
is
where
the
concept
of
“thinking
outside
the
box”
comes
from.
When
you
find
yourself
boxed
in
by
constraints,
you
have
to
use
your
prob-
lem
solving
skills
to
come
up
with
a
new
solution.
Think
of
the
movie
Apollo
13
when
the
ground
crew
had
to
figure
out
-
in
a
matter
of
hours
to
prevent
the
astronauts
from
suffocating
-
how
to
fit
a
square
CO
2
filter
into
a
slot
designed
for
a
round
filter
using
only
items
available
in
the
spacecraft.
Bennett
Cerf
put
Seuss
in
a
box,
then
Seuss
put
himself
in
an
even
smaller
box.
“Would
you
eat
them
in
a
box?
Would
you
eat
them
with
a
fox?”
A
box
he
had
to
think
his
way
out
of
to
create
a
book
children
would
love.
When
I
think
of
being
challenged
by
a
boundary,
I
often
think
of
some
of
the
physically
challenged
athletes
I’ve
seen
over
the
years
-
men
and
women
with
one
leg
running
marathons
and
competing
in
downhill
skiing.
These
are
two
activities
I
can-
not
do,
and
I
have
both
of
my
legs.
I
used
to
wonder
why
they
were
able
to
do
so
much
more
than
me,
until
I
realized
they
were
challenged
by
a
boundary
and
I
wasn’t.
Being
unable
to
walk
was
unacceptable
to
them,
and
conquering
their
disability
became
a
powerful
motivating
factor.
They
had
to
get
out
of
the
box!

Creativity
and
innovation
abhor
too
much
freedom.
I
like
to
imagine
creativ-
ity
as
a
prisoner
trying
to
bust
out
of
jail.
W
hen
your
resources
and
opportunities
are
limited,
you
must
become
innovative.
Think
of
Clint
Eastwood
in
the
true-story
movie
Escape
From
Alcatraz
,
breaking
out
of
prison
with
a
nail
clipper.
An
even
better
illustration
is
the
World
War
II
movie
The
Great
Escape
.
It
is
an
amazing
tale
of
ingenuity.
Men
with
little
to
work
with
escape
from
a
German
prisoner
of
war
camp.
In
addition
to
digging
three
tunnels
without
shovels,
they
made
hand-drawn
traveling
documents
and
identification
papers
that
looked
authentic
enough
to
pass
for
ones
made
on
a
printing
press.
Now
that
was
a
box
to
get
out
of!
W
ithout
boundaries
to
challenge
us,
we
wouldn't
be
as
creative.
The
exception
to
this
rule
is
political
constraint
-
government
regulation
stifles
creativity
and
shuts
innovation
down.
We
shouldn't
have
to
worry
about
being
arrested
(remember
Galileo)
just
because
we
have
a
radical
idea.
On
the
other
hand,
government
can
stimulate
innovation,
but
what
it
has
to
do
is
.
.
.
as
a
French
economist
once
said,
"Laissez-faire,"
which
is
understood
as
"get
out
of
the
way!"
More
specifically,
what
the
government
can
do
to
stimulate
innovation
is
to:
reduce
taxes,
reduce
regulation,
return
to
a
sound
currency
(like
gold),
reform
K-12
education,
and
reform
product
liability
law.
In
other
words,
untie
the
hands
of
innovators.

Nesting
Diamond
Discovered
in
Russia
A
dapted
from
Information
by
ALROSA
and
the
Gemological
Institute
of
America,
Inc.
Specialists
sorting
through
rough
diamonds
at
the
Nyurba
mining
and
processing
division
of
ALROSA
in
Yakutia,
Russia,
came
across
something
they’d
never
seen
before;
a
tiny
diamond
moving
freely
inside
a
larger
diamond.
The
Nyurba
Mining
and
Processing
Division
was
established
in
2000,
to
develop
the
deposits
of
the
Nakyn
ore
field.
This
includes
two
open-pit
mines
working
the
Nyurbinsky
and
Botuobinsky
kimberlite
pipes,
as
well
as
a
placer
deposit.
Experts
studying
the
nesting
diamond
believe
this
is
the
first
such
diamond
in
the
history
of
global
dia-
mond
mining. Scientists
speculate
the
diamond
could
be
more
than
800
million
years
old.
Despite
its
complex
structure,
it
weighs
only
0.62
carats
and
the
internal
diamond
weighs
an
estimated
0.02
carats.
Reminiscent
of
the
traditional
nesting
Russian
Matryoshka
doll,
it
has
been
dubbed
the
Matryoshka
Diamond.
Specialists
of
the
Yakutsk
Diamond
Trade
Enterprise
turned
the
discovery
over
to
the
Research
and
Development
Geological
Enterprise
of
ALROSA
for
analysis.
Scientists
there
studied
the
unique
inclu-
sion
with
Raman
and
infrared
spectroscopies,
as
well
as
X-ray
microtomography.
Based
on
the
results,
scientists
theorized
how
the
crystal
was
formed.
According
to
them,
the
internal
diamond
was
formed
first,
and
the
external
diamond
formed
during
the
later
stages
of
growth.
According
to
Oleg
Kovalchuk,
deputy
director
for
innovations
at
ALROSA's
Research
and
Development
Geological
Enterprise,
"The
most
interesting
thing
for
us,
was
to
find
out
how
the
air
space
between
the
inner
and
outer
diamonds
was
formed.
We
have
two
main
hypotheses.
According
to
the
first
version,
a
mantle
mineral
captured
a
diamond
during
its
growth,
and
later
it
was
dissolved
in
the
earth's
surface.
According
to
the
second
version,
a
layer
of
porous
polycrystalline
diamond
substance
was
formed
inside
the
dia-
mond
because
of
ultrafast
growth,
and
more
aggressive
mantle
processes
subsequently
dissolved
it.
Due
to
the
presence
of
the
dissolved
zone,
one
diamond
began
to
move
freely
inside
another
.
.
.
As
far
as
we
know,
there
were
no
such
diamonds
in
the
history
of
global
diamond
mining
yet.
This
is
really
a
unique
creation
of
nature,
especially
since
nature
does
not
like
emptiness.
Usually,
some
minerals
are
replaced
by
others
without
cavity
formation."

For
Life
just
finished
loading
another
container
for
shipment
to
Guatemala.
It
is
loaded
with
material
to
support
our
work,
along
with
donat-
e
d
medical
equipment
headed
for
the
Ministry
of
Health
in
the
Petén
region,
and
for
other
groups
who
are
working
to
make
a
difference
in
the
lives
of
the
people
in
the
area.
The
containers
we
ship
are
the
lifeblood
of
our
work.
We
constantly
need
equipment
to
support
our
drilling
rigs.
This
means
tools,
compressors,
generators,
pallets
of
bentonite,
galvanized
pipe,
steel
well
casings,
pumps,
PVC
pipe,
stainless
steel
fittings,
nuts
and
bolts,
wrenches,
etc.
-
EVERYTHING
is
carefully
weighed
and
cataloged.
The
containers
themselves
are
somewhat
special.
We
use
high
cube
containers,
certified
as
suitable
for
ocean
shipping.
The
containers
arrive
and
we
have
two
hours
to
load,
or
we
will
be
charged
for
extra
time.
We
have
never
made
it
in
two
hours,
but
we
also
have
never
had
to
pay
extra.
The
containers
are
loaded
right
to
the
doors.
Our
crew
of
volunteers
pack
them
tight,
not
only
to
get
in
as
much
as
we
can,
but
to
pack
them
so
there
will
be
no
shifting
of
the
contents.
This
year,
there
were
170
boxes
of
donated
hospital
linens
packed
into
every
conceivable
crevice
as
the
heavier
material
was
placed.
These
boxes
cushion
everything
against
move-
ment.
I
believe
you
could
turn
the
container
upside
down
and
it
would
pretty
much
stay
the
way
it
is
inside.
The
containers
are
carried
by
truck
to
the
Port
of
Seattle,
where
they
are
placed
aboard
a
very
large
container
ship
for
the
first
part
of
the
voyage.
This
year,
the
ship
is
the
Conti
Courage
,
an
MSC
ship.
It
is
a
large
container
ship.
The
largest
of
these
ships
can
carry
up
to
18,000
containers
onboard.
I
am
able
to
track
the
voyage
of
the
ship
carrying
our
precious
mate-
rial
as
it
makes
its
way
from
Seattle
to
Oakland,
to
Long
Beach,
and
then
to
Panama.
I
enjoy
watching
where
it
is
daily.
Our
cost
for
shipping
from
Seattle
to
the
east
coast
of
Guatemala
is
usually
about
$5000
and
takes
about
40
days
from
port
to
port.
Sometimes
the
cost
is
a
little
more,
but
usually
not
less.
It
does
not
seem
to
matter
whether
the
container
is
a
full
weight
or
not.
I
think
an
empty
one
would
probably
cost
as
much.
After
the
shipping
where
the
costs
and
progress
are
known,
comes
the
mystery
of
the
import
process.
The
container
sits
in
the
port.
How
long?
No
one
can
predict.
For
the
port,
the
longer
the
better,
because
they
charge
$140
per
day.
It
is
usually
about
a
week,
so
we
figure
about
$1000
for
port
charges
waiting
for
us
to
work
out
the
details
of
the
importation.

We

New
Way
to
Capture
Stranded
Natural
Gas
Adapted
from
a
Press
Release
by
Edge
Gathering Virtual
Pipelines
2
LLC
Edge
Gathering
Virtual
Pipelines
2
LLC
specializes
in
delivering
low-cost,
high-quality
liquefied
natural
gas
(LNG)
by
converting
stranded
and
flared
natural
gas.
The
compa-
ny
recently
produced
and
delivered
its
first
LNG
in
the
United
States.
To
date,
more
than
30,000
gallons
of
LNG
from
a
Marcellus
Shale
project
in
Pennsylvania
has
been
delivered
to
a
location
more
than
300
miles
away
in
New
England.
The
system
uses
a
transportable
Cryobox™
made
by
Galileo
Global
Technologies.
Using
the
LNG
production
and
liq-
uefaction
equipment
at
the
production
site,
the
company
is
able
to
deliver
LNG
directly
to
customers
without
using
costly
pipelines.
The
cryobox
units
fit
on
a
standard
40-foot
tractor
trailer
and
is
designed
to
be
quickly
and
easily
connected
and
disconnected
from
feedstock
gas
wells.
The
units
are
also
self-powered
using
produced
gas,
eliminating
the
need
for
a
grid
connection.
This
process
allows
gas
and
oil
projects
to
capture
and
utilize
stranded
gas
reserves,
rather
than
flaring
or
venting.
For
LNG
buyers,
this
opens
up
a
new
source
of
high-quality,
low-cost
LNG
which
can
be
delivered
anywhere.
By
utilizing
otherwise
wasted
gas
while
avoiding
pipeline
costs,
the
company
is
hoping
to
become
one
of
the
most
com-
petitive
suppliers
of
truck-delivered
LNG
worldwide.
The
technology,
developed
and
proven
in
Argentina,
is
suitable
for
use
anywhere
in
the
world
where
stranded,
flared,
or
vented
gas
is
an
issue.
Mark
Casaday,
CEO
of
Edge
said,
“It
is
esti-
mated
that
stranded
wells
account
for
up
to
60%
of
global
reserves,
and
up
to
20%
of
those
drilled
in
Marcellus,
show-
ing
the
scale
of
this
untapped
resource.
The
virtual
pipeline
model
has
already
been
deployed
in
Mendoza,
Argentina,
where
the
first
LNG-fueled
power
plant
running
entirely
on
previously
stranded
gas
is
now
well
established.
Now
we’re
bringing
this
innovation
to
the
U.S.
and
the
rest
of
the
world.
With
Edge,
well
owners
can
monetize
these
assets
for
the
first
time,
and
the
market
benefits
from
the
lowest
cost
and
highest
quality
LNG
available.”

A
Tale
of
Two
Spillways
Adapted
from
Information
by
Kiewit
Infrastructure
West
Co.
In
February
2017,
heavy
rain
and
rapid
snowmelt
compromised
the
main
spillway
of
California’s
Lake
Oroville,
leading
to
the
emergency
spillway
being
used
for
the
first
time.
N
early
200,000
people
were
evacuated
from
the
city
of
Oroville
and
multiple
downstream
communities
as
the
hillside
began
eroding.
Kiewit
Infrastructure
West
Co.
won
the
contract
to
complete
an
emergency
repair
and
rebuild
of
the
two
massive
spillways
for
the
California
Department
of
Water
Resources
(DWR),
and
they
needed
to
do
it
in
less
than
18
months.
Portionsof
the
3000-
foot
main
spillway
had
to
be
repaired
and
rebuilt
in
less
than
165
days.
The
team
was
mobilized
to
the
site
of
the
nation’s
tallest
dam
within
a
month.
More
than
700
Kiewit
employees
worked
over
1.6
million
hours
at
Oroville,
and
hundreds
of
other
regional
subcontractors,
suppliers,
vendors,
and
DWR
employees
also
worked
at
the
site.
All
involved
were
striving
together
to
reach
a
common
goal:
get
both
spillways
built
to
final
design
by
November
1,
2018.
To
prevent
uphill
erosion,
if
the
emergency
spillway
ever
needed
to
be
used
again,
crews
constructed
an
emergency
spill-
way
system
(ESS)
made
up
of
a
secant
pile
wall,
splashpad,
and
buttress.
In
Phase
1,
ESS
work
focused
on
the
secant
pile
wall
-
a
1450-foot-long
under-
ground
wall
built
into
bedrock
at
depths
of
35-65
feet.
Once
crews
finished
the
wall,
they
could
finally
place
roller-com-
pacted
concrete
(RCC)
into
the
splashpad.
To
crush
the
1.2
million
tons
of
aggre-
gate
required
for
the
RCC
production,
the
team
processed
over
2
million
tons
of
on-
site
materials.
Using
one-foot
lifts
at
a
time,
crews
placed
706,000
cubic
yards
of
RCC
in
a
total
area
so
big
25
regulation
foot-
ball
fields
could
fit
within
the
splashpad.
“When
Kiewit
finished
the
first
phase
in
November
2017,
the
compromised
3000-
foot
main
spillway
was
back
in
working
condition,”
said
Project
Director
Todd
Orbus.
“But
the
project
was
only
40%
com-
plete.
We
had
to
wait
until
May
of
2018
to
start
finishing
more
than
half
our
scope.”
At
the
start
of
Phase
2,
all
the
tempo-
rary
walls
constructed
along
the
spillway
in
Phase
1
had
to
be
demolished.
A
three-
foot
layer
of
structural
concrete
was
placed
on
top
of
the
1050-foot
RCC
middle
section
of
the
chute,
and
the
temporary
walls
were
replaced
with
permanent
structural
con-
crete
walls.
Additionally,
the
top
730
feet
of
the
spillway
had
to
be
demolished
and
replaced
with
structural
concrete
and
hydro
blast,
then
crews
had
to
resurface
the
ener-
gy
dissipaters
(or
dragon’s
teeth
as
they
called
them)
at
the
base
of
the
spillway.
“We
entered
the
winter
season
know-
ing
we
had
a
tremendous
amount
of
work
to
complete
in
2018
-
nearly
double
the
amount
of
concrete
to
place
than
crews
completed
in
2017,”
Orbus
said.
“But
through
extensive
planning,
execution,
diligence,
and
hard
work,
we
met
all
of
our
project
milestones
ahead
of
schedule.
This
proj-
ect
is
proof
of
what
can
be
accomplished
when
you
have
the
right
team
focused
on
a
common
goal.”

In
Memoriam
David
Thomas
“Dave”
Freeman
(1969~2019)
The
WWDR
WWDR
Team
was
deeply
saddened
to
hear
of
the
passing
of
Dave
Freeman
of
A
tlas
Manufacturing.
He
left
us
peacefully
at
home
surrounded
by
his
loved
ones
after
a
brave
fight
against
an
aggressive
cancer.
Dave
grew
up
in
Powell
River,
British
Columbia,
Canada.
His
passion
for
flying
was
evident
from
a
very
early
age,
getting
his
pilot’s
license
and
purchasing
his
first
plane
at
17.
After
high
school,
he
obtained
his
commercial
pilot's
license
and
began
flying
commercially
as
soon
as
he
reached
the
legal
age
of
19.
For
many
people,
the
sky’s
the
limit.
For
Dave,
it
was
his
childhood
dream
which
came
true
when
he
flew
all
over
the
world
for
several
different
airlines,
including
Air
Canada.
He
moved
several
times
in
his
life,
finding
home
at
a
farm
in
the
Comox
Valley.
He
loved
his
farm,
initially
raising
beef
cattle,
and
each
year
growing
and
selling
hay.
The
pasture
also
served
as
an
airplane
landing
strip!
During
a
leave
from
Air
Canada,
Dave
became
a
car
salesman
and
quickly
discovered
an
unexpected
talent
for
sales.
After
leaving
Air
Canada,
he
became
a
partner
in
Atlas
Manufacturing,
which
he
helped
to
grow
into
a
thriving
business,
selling
products
around
the
world.
Dave
had
a
strong
faith
and
was
active
in
his
Catholic
Church.
He
is
survived
by
his
beloved
wife
of
27
years
Claire;
daughter
Melissa;
sons
Graham
and
Reid;
father
Tom
(Inge-Lore);
brother
Andy;
and
a
large
extended
family.
He
packed
a
lot
of
living
and
loving
into
his
50
years
on
earth,
and
will
be
greatly
missed
by
all
who
knew
him.
A
Christian
mass
celebrating
his
live
was
held
at
Our
Lady
of
the
Sacred
Heart
Chapel
in
Comox,
November
4,
2019.
The
management
and
staff
of
WWDR
WWDR
extend
their
condolences
to
Dave’s
family,
friends,
and
colleagues.
Lest
we
forget...
The
WWDR
WWDR
camera
caught
up
with
Dave
and
Claire
at
the
2018
Pacific
Northwest
Ground
Water
Exposition
in
Portland,
Oregon.
