Summer Projects: During the Iron Blosam maintenance week we will take the opportunity during this slow occupancy period to identify weak points in our water distribution system. This is accomplished by putting significant demands on the system from various zones. Data will be recorded and documented.

We are also in the process of upgrading the shelving on the mezzanine. During this project we are organizing all of the maps and plans.
