Update from Caro, MI


We started Tuesday in Caro, MI on two wind turbines for the Hutchison's and the Matuszak's on their property just East of Caro.

Tuesday we completed the Hutchison's base and have the wire ran back to the house.

We had no problem with the installation with the base. The ground is so hard here that we didn't even need a tube for the concrete. The hole was 12' in the ground. We are installing a 45' tower on this project.

Wednesday we poured concrete for the Hutchison project first thing that morning. After that was completed we moved all our equipment over to the Matuszak project to start on their base and wire. The Matuszak's were getting a 45' tower also, but the owner is a metal fabricate and wanted his tower an additional 62' feet. He built an extension 17' long that will be added to the 45' tower.

Also this base had to be increased for the addition height of the tower to 15' in the ground. Again it went off with out a hitch.

Today we are going to install the Hutchison's new pole and turbine and we will also be pouring the base for the Matuszak's.
