CLEARING WORK
TO START FOR
NEW MEA UNE
Bill Nelson of Star Route, Pal
mer, as low bidder, has been
awarded the contract for clear
ing for the Matanuska Electric
Association’s new transmission
line, according to Cy Brewer
MEA manager. Nelson’s bid was
for $2400. Other bidders includ
ed lewis Harrison of Sutton,
$2443; William Boatwright? of
Wasilla, $3100> Gordon McCrary
of Eagle River, $3185; and Vic
Vuckonich of Goat Creek, $5500.
According to this month’s is
sue of the Valley Cooperator the
new transmission line is the in
itial step in the completion of a
34500-V link which will ultimate
ly be the “backbone” of the MEA
system, providing the most flex
ible means of receiving power
from any known source.
The river crossing of the new
transmission line will follow the
present crossing near the old
Eklutna plant which has success
fully withstood the onslaught of
both the Matanuska and Knik j
river floods for several years.
After crossing the rivers the line
will follow the railroad tracks
until it meets the original Ma
tanuska road; follow this road to
ward the Experiment farm and
then toward Four Comers along
the Wasilla road to the Palmer
substation.
Because some portions of the
right-of-way are not practical to
be cleared by contract MEA em
ployees will do some clearing.
The clearing job will be complet
ed this fall.
