Hi folks, this is Dan again with another water project update. I got a chance to speak with AE2S a few weeks ago and they were happy with how things are progressing. They said the contractors doing the work are trying to keep things moving through the winter as the weather allows, so you may see them on-and-off through the snowy months.
The main line installation is almost complete, no serious problems were encountered.
The project is still on track to be complete early in the 2015 season. They’re shooting for June to have the yard equipment finished and have water testing done on a cabin-by-cabin basis. They need to see a certain amount of chlorine in the water or it’s not considered safe to drink. Most cabin owners at some point should hear from AE2S as soon as the ground thaws and yard equipment starts going in again to wrap up planning. They have your contact information from the cabin owners list.
The engineers on the project suggest getting in contact with plumbers now if you plan on having water lines run from the yard equipment to your cabin. They also suggested that until a plumbing contractor can get to you, feel free to use the yard hydrant to connect water to your cabin using a drinking-water (RV) hose.
