GREEN COMMUNITIES GRANT
1) "Winserts" for Police station were built & installed thanks to David
Koester (DK) and daughter Lucy. 2) DK has materials for Town Hall
"winserts". JC will revise and forward detailed drawings to DK. 3)
Library weatherization is close to being completed. Old insulation was
greatly compromised by animals which explains
the ice damming and water damage over the librarian's circulation desk.
JK & SK met with the library trustees to update them on the progress and
gave them a "punch list" of work beyond the scope of this project.
4) SK & JK have been working ahead of the Energia crew to facilitate
their work on the Town Hall; removing & re-installing clapboards,
surveying walls with the infrared camera to find areas needing more
insulation. JK has been doing air sealing in the main hall.
5) Tech students have finished their work installing heat pumps for the
Police station.

OTHER BUSINESS

HIGHWAY DEPT.
Storage shed is being built. When finished, wall insulation can begin in
the equipment garage. Kevin Smith has offered to help get this project
started.

TOWN HALL HOT WATER	Lack of hot water in the kitchen seems to have been
addressed by putting up signs near the dishwasher. The basement is
warmer since foaming the upper walls. Some further pipe insulation might
be worth doing.

BOARDROOM WINDOWS	Don Hayward is repairing/rebuilding these. 

FERC/PIPELINE      Discussed filing for "Intervener" status with FERC on
the NED Pipeline project.
SK moved, MH 2nd	"To authorize JK to draft letter of application for
WBEC to be granted intervener status for NED Pipeline project."
Board also authorized JK to write letter of support for Conservation Law
Foundation effort to pressure MA DEP to issue regs in accordance with
GWSA, if she has time.
