Power House construction begins
Report and photos by Dennis CasebierWednesday
We procured the materials for the 10' X 12' Power House yesterday. Today "The crew" went to work on getting the wall framing up and most of the wooden materials. From left to right; Bob Beal, Dorothy Beal, John Harrington, Ron Shepard, John Rieff.
They also painted the structure with an undercoat as protection against warping. Hope we have another nice day tomorrow!

Power House preparation
From the Mojave Road Report
A detachment consisting of Bob Beal, John Harrington, and Dennis Casebier, pulled the Big Tex trailer down to Home Depot in Bullhead City. They loaded it with almost all of the materials that will be needed for construction of what we've been calling the "Power House" that will serve the new Library/Depot building.
It measures 10' X 12' and will feature an old-time hip roof. That same day, Dorothy Beal, Bob Beal, and John Harrington commenced putting an undercoat of paint of the newly purchased boards to keep them from warping.

Well is completed
Report by Dennis CasebierThe new well is completed. The concrete collar around the well head has been poured. The pump is installed and the pressure tank is in place.
Water stands in the new well at 580 feet with the pump set at 800 feet. Testing of the well will have to wait for the new electrical service.
Leftover concrete from the pouring of the well collar was donated by Eagle Drilling and used to fill in a 10’ X 12’ form for the new Power House slab. This small building will house the new electrical service for the Library.

Deep well pump installed
From the Mojave Road Report
The pump crew from Eagle Well Drilling was here. They installed the deep well pump, riser, electrical connections, and pressure tank. With those additions the well is completed. The well is 830 feet deep with the pump set at 800 feet. It appears to be a good well but we won't know for sure until we get the proper electrical line out there to test it.

Well concrete collar poured
From the Mojave Road Report
Eagle Well Drilling was here with a concrete truck Barstow. The concrete sleeve that must be poured alongside the casing down fifty feet was poured. They also poured the concrete collar and pad at the new well site.
They brought a full load of concrete when only half was needed. The rest was used by John Reiff, Ron Shepard, and Carl Weikel who were busy pouring cement for the new Power House slab and other projects around the property.
