Since June, we’ve been moving dirt around our site constantly.  Although PG&E did the natural gas lay-in on August 24 and we passed the mandrel inspection on September 8, Nathan Lee (our project manager with PG&E) advised us that they cannot install the new concrete vault at the front of our property until October 26.  We’ve lost confidence in PG&E’s ability to deliver services.

Since the dirt we have stockpiled for PG&E will not be required for more than four weeks, we decided to move the dirt to the side of our property so the driveway is clear.  This will provide much-needed real estate for delivering materials and parking vehicles.

Bryan worked for several hours moving dirt.  Tomorrow, he will clear the garage, which will then allow Murray Windows & Doors to deliver the 25 clerestory windows on Tuesday, September 28.

Since PG&E will not be on site until October 26, Bryan will move the stockpiled dirt (for backfilling) out of the driveway.

We will clear the garage so we can store the 25 clerestory windows on Tuesday.

The front of the house is looking a bit better after Bryan moved some of the stockpiled dirt.
