IMPORTANT INFORMATION

We would like to provide you with a revised electrical specification for the grinder pump connection. Please note this important change and advise your electrician as appropriate:

The homeowner is required to install a dedicated 30A breaker to supply the grinder pump.  The wire from the breaker to the control panel outside shall be three (3) #10 WG wires and one (1) #10 WG Ground NOT  #12 wires as previously indicated in the  homeowners guide for connection.


August 16, 2016 update:
All grinder pumps and control panels are installed and final restoration of all disturbed areas will start in 2 weeks.
