NEWest is in the excavation stage right now and they are digging down around 20 feet and approximately 100 feet in diameter, to make room for the new primary clarifier. Clem Miner is the Superintendent for NEWest on this job and he has been with the company since its inception. As a matter of fact, he carries the distinction of being the company’s first employee. “Along with the clarifier, we are installing some miscellaneous piping and other ancillary equipment,” says Miner. “We are utilizing beam/plate and lagging on two corners and then excavating out from there, before open cutting the other two sides. We are running into decomposed granite and we require a reliable excavator with a lot of power to get this job done efficiently.”
