We were able to complete our current list of sprinkler start-ups in Nampa, Caldwell, and Star, yesterday, but still have a few more to finish in Meridian. Two that we visited in Meridian still do not have water yet. We will visit the few we missed in Meridian yesterday first today, then move on to Boise and Garden City, and one in Kuna that we couldn't do last week because they had no water. We have a large property to work on in Emmett that will require two people to be effective, and have that on our list for Monday when I have an assistant available.
We finished a few of the major repairs we had yesterday, but have another in progress for this evening after we complete as many start-ups as we can that is an entire overhaul of the main and drain valves, all galvanized fittings, a new backflow, poly pipe, blowout hose bib, and a 10" round to house the valves. We have several other major repairs to tend to after all start-ups are complete. Many of these require excavation of the main and drain valves on a city water system, as well as more backflow and vacuum breaker replacement.
