The Boys Dorm has been restarted and should be completed in April. A big store being built on the side road of that lot will be a general merchandise store, with gas being sold next to it. Bath room for New guest House started.
At the old Center. The New Dining Hall is great. We put a wire fence around the outdoor kitchen area to stop dogs coming into the food prep area.
They built 6 new water tanks in concrete, about 20,000 litres each. I have worked with Prachaup and we changed a lot of plumbing. Senae & I cleaned the kitchen drain system, now it is working. The new kitchen gets its water from the 2 new tanks below St Olaf Guest House. Water runs into 4 stainless sinks and drains to the vegetable garden. The 6 tanks are located: 1 near Handclasp House, 2 below St Olaf & 3 more between Palacios House & student kitchen. The pump feeds direct to Handclasp House tank on a stand, the 25,000 litre tank near the old kitchen and the tower.
The Tower feeds the other 5 x 20,000 litre tanks and the Houses. We hope to eliminate the use of all water direct from the tower as it cant keep the level up. The pump delivers 1000 litres per hour. We take 2 x 10 hour days to fill a 20,000 litre tank. The plan is to have all water come from a storage tank as they will be filled by rain water half the year. We will only use the pump to service the Houses. I hope this all makes sense.
