Bethlehem -- MB Mechanical: MB Mechanical continued making excellent progress in the boiler room while preparing for the boiler deliveries scheduled for July 22. They completed the boiler supply and return piping in preparation for the new equipment. The final connections will be made once the new boilers are set.

Concrete forms were also built around the existing equipment pad to accommodate the new boiler installation. The concrete will be poured on Friday before the crew leaves for the weekend, allowing adequate time to cure before work resumes next week.

Looking ahead, the rigging crew will be onsite Monday to finalize the lifting and installation plan. They will return on Wednesday to remove the existing boilers and water heater before setting the new boilers in place.

While onsite Tuesday, the ductwork contractor identified suspicious building materials and immediately stopped work. MB Mechanical was notified, and they, in turn, notified me. The material was tested Thursday afternoon, and we expect the results on Monday. Everyone involved followed the proper protocols and communicated the situation promptly. Once the test results are received, we will determine the appropriate path forward.

Presby Energy: Presby Energy's construction division mobilized to the site Tuesday morning and made significant progress on the tank farm and gas conversion project. The site was prepared, the propane tanks were installed, and we are currently awaiting the required inspection before backfilling around the tanks.

The trench that will carry the gas line to the corner of the building was also prepared, and installation of the gas line along the rear and access-road side of the school is underway. Once the installation is complete, the Fire Chief will perform a final inspection. Following approval, the crew will backfill the trench and install the protective bollards.

Presby plans to remain onsite next week to complete the tank farm and gas line installation and is optimistic that their portion of the project will be finished by the end of the week.

Axion: Axion continued work on the weatherization project this week. A lift is scheduled to be delivered Monday to provide access to the upper-level windows. They anticipate completing the window work by Wednesday before shifting their focus to the remaining door weatherstripping and associated hardware.

Axion expects to complete their portion of the project next week.

Lafayette --

DHI: DHI had Wilco onsite first thing Monday morning to complete the remaining library ERV ductwork. The only work left on the library ERV is the boiler feed and return piping, which was being installed on July 17. Factory start up for both the Gym and Library ERV units is scheduled for July 28–29.

The cabinet contractor was also onsite Monday to modify the cabinets in Classrooms 127–129. The cabinet openings were enlarged to accommodate the width of the new unit ventilators. The walls behind each unit were insulated to minimize drafts, and the unit ventilators were permanently installed.

Blocking for the entryway cabinet heaters was completed, and the trim was installed to create a finished reveal at the bottom of each unit. In addition, the exterior intake and exhaust wall penetrations for both the Gym unit and Library ERV were sealed and painted.

The electrician is scheduled to return on Monday to complete the remaining electrical connections, allowing the final installation to be completed. Final trim work around the classroom unit ventilators will be completed next week.

ENE: ENE continued wiring the newly installed unit ventilators and installing new thermostats throughout the school. They have been notified of the upcoming factory start-up for the Gym and Library ERV units and plan to complete the controls installation on both systems beforehand.

Next week, ENE will begin the controls installation for the Library ERV.

Kevin W. Smith & Sons Roofing: Kevin W. Smith & Sons was onsite Monday morning to receive the roofing material delivery. They immediately began removing the existing roofing system and hoisting the new materials to the roof.

By midweek, the majority of the main roof section had been completed. On July 17, the crew planned to begin work on the smaller entrance roof and expects to complete the roofing project next week.

The new flashing is scheduled to arrive early next week, after which the remaining installation and finishing work will be completed.

Ridgeline: Dan from Ridgeline temporarily paused work this week while the roofing project is underway. He plans to return once the roof work has been completed.

Presby Energy: Presby experienced delays on a challenging job site, which pushed the equipment delivery to Wednesday afternoon. They plan to begin preparing the tank pad site on Friday, July 17, by clearing trees and mulching the area with a forestry mulcher.

Next week, they anticipate installing the forms for the tank pad and pouring the concrete, pending approval and review of their construction permit.

MB Mechanical: MB Mechanical was onsite Tuesday to verify measurements and finalize the plan for the boiler delivery, which remains scheduled for July 27.
