Baby it's cold out there

Well winter has finally arrived at Finnmark and it shows.

A water pipe broke near the chiller- it hasn't affected anything major---yet- but this Tuesday- some nearby buildings will be without heat for a few hours- Bundle Up!

One of the biggest problems of our community is--- "We are old."

This community is over 40 years old- and out water pipes are in good shape... but every so often one breaks.

Our auditors suggested that it might cost in the neighborhood of 3-5 million dollars to replace the pipes- This is an impossible task- we simply do not have the resources to do this at one time--so we do it whenever there is a breakage- it is easier and financially prudent to do it this way.

Overall this community is in good shape- so enjoy it-- .
