Safety meeting: IBEW

The meeting room of the local Coldwater Hotel was occupied by members of the IBEW yesterday morning. A member of the group outside for a break said that they were having a safety meeting. When asked ” high visibility concerns ” he didn’t disagree”.

The member said they were involved in the 500 KV line to the lower-mainland. When asked if a tower that had fallen some months ago in the Lundbom lake area was still on the ground he said ” I think that’s been cleaned up now. A separate source at a different time had said that it collapsed when it went to be plumbed. He also said that the towers are heavier gauge steel then in the past. Another source had shown us pictures of the tower on the ground in recent weeks.

The 3rd 500 kv line to the lower mainland is substantially following the existing line to lessen environmental impact.

The pads for the towers are being put in by the company Flatiron represented by the Christian labourers union the towers by Hydro its self with its bargaining unit IBEW.
