Geo-Mechanics, Inc. Saves Us a Bundle

Two years ago, at my suggestion, we had hired Geo-Mechanics, Inc. to provide Engineering for Northmont Dam. Over the past 20 years, we had spent untold thousands of dollars with WEC Engineers, our Borough Engineer and the Engineer involved in last year and this year's unauthorized meetings. The results of working with Geo-Mechanics have been wonderful, evidence our budgets vs. expenditures on Northmont Dam:

Item Year Budgeted Expense Actual Expense
Northmont Dam 2009 $150,000 $12,631
Northmont Dam 2010 $ 50,000 $491
Northmont Dam 2011 $ 50,000 To Be Determined

We have retained Mr. Art Gadzik, Ross Twp. Engineer in the interim to provide Engineering Services until we find a permanent replacement for WEC Engineers.
March 16, 2011: We have retained Senate Engineering Co. as our new Borough Engineer.
