HVAC contractors have set 4 of the 15-Ton units on their pads and have begun the rough-in of the (6) first floor units in the office building. They will continue this next week as well as set the other 4 25-Ton units and begin the (7) second floor rough-ins. The concrete crews have poured the transformer pad and the other 4 A/C pads and will begin the majority of the concrete paving next week.

7.12.12 - Great progress has been made framing the office. Most of the walls are framed; electricians are continuing the rough-in of the office and rotor building; the fire sprinkler contractor began the office area sprinkler system yesterday and should have it completed next week. The HVAC rough-in will begin next week also. We have poured approximately 25 percent of the concrete paving and began grading for the rest when the rain started. The rain has caused major delays. We have the steam building foundation ready to pour, but the rain has delayed that as well. It will likely be poured on Monday morning. Plumbers have tied in the sanitary sewer line and have run the water line to the building.
