We tied in to this cable replacement job with EPCOR in August, looking for completion before the frost got in to the ground. As we write this, the cable is terminated and the houses are running on the new cable and transformers. The snow came early and there was a touch of frost in the ground, but we got it done. More than 3000m of conduit and even more cable found new homes over the last 3 months. The shock and horror of this job came from the manicured lawns, the elementary school, daycares, the existing retail and the associated aspects of an established neighborhood that you’d expect to find. The overbuilt utilities and unmarked or unknown treasures hiding in the ground kept everyone on their toes. We looked at more than 200 utilities through the course of that drilling. That my friend, is some real good steering.
