Grindstone repairs near completion; tower punch list and interducting work underway

Nov 13, 2025

Board received updates that Grindstone road grading and drainage are complete for the season, a waveguide pump failure was repaired, insurance adjustments for lightning damage are pending, interducting for six 6‑inch conduits was completed to improve cable management, and only final tower ladder and punch‑list items remain.

The full story

Operations staff and contractors told the board repair work at Grindstone has reduced outages and improved access but weather stopped parts of the project for the season. On technical failures, the waveguide transmission line pump and dehydrator at Lamoille failed and were repaired, and crews completed ground work including drainage ditches and gravel where needed. "We did have 1 item failure that needed immediate attention is a waveguide transmission line pump and dehydrator. That work is completed," the operations speaker said.
