NCM Update

This week as seen a flurry of activity and it is amazing to watch the team of professionals in place on the skydome project. Some highlights of what has taken place:
Panels have been removed from the outside of the skydome and a bridge built to get equipment from the outside to the same level of the skydome inside.
A new Plexiglas wall has been installed so visitors can now view the sinkhole and the work that is taking place.
The other wall leading into the skydome has a monitor with a live feed of the webcam directed toward the sinkhole for visitors to view.
Continuing meetings by the major players (Scott, Murphy, Daniel Construction, GeoTech Engineering firm Howard Baker, WKU Center for Cave and Karst Studies, Environmental Engineering team and our Insurance group - Chubb) to devise a plan which includes:
Securing the spire

Extracting the three Corvettes on top

Securing and stabilizing the sinkhole area

Extracting remaining Corvettes

Begin remediation of the entire area including exploring the caverns that can be seen.

Finalizing and implementing plans to mitigate entire sinkhole area

Finalizing our plan to repair the skydome floor.
