How reliable is GMP there? Both trips I took to SB had power issues. They’re at the end of the lines with no redundancy (e.g., down 100 to the South).

Even if SB wanted a decent fleet of fan guns to supplement air water usage like a lot of areas do, they may just not be able to with GMP.

Not that I want to jinx it, but I rarely lose power at my condo. Even if it goes out when I'm not there, I'd still be notified via an automated e-mail so I'd know about it. A major power issue is typically only caused by a major storm that has either a lot of heavy snow, ice, or wind to take down trees and power lines.

maybe they can use some of the parts from the old Superstar lift they truck up this past summer?
