THE GRAVEL PROJECT - Page 2

Before the gravel can be spread around each tower site, repairs must be made to the ground wires and fences.

Don Horton works to repair the many broken grounding wires on the fence with new copper wire.
 
Mike DeStefano uses a propane torch to repair the broken ground wires. An oxyacetylene torch is needed to reattach the grounding wires to the galvanized fence.
Break time!
Back to work.
With the fence wires and ground wires repaired, the gravel is shoveled and raked into the ditches around the fence and also on the inside. The exposed ground wires in the ditch (as seen on page 1) are now buried deep under the dirt and gravel...


...and Tower 4 is finished! One down and only three more to go!
