Equipment Rental
Issue: Due to excessive rain ROW needs to be maintained as soon as possible. Existing 1989 John Deere mower is broken and won't be cost effective to repair it.

Solution: Two month rental of a Case 40seriesIH with a 5 ft. mower open cab. Approximate cost $4,000.

Result: Rental of the Case 40seriesIH will allow our crews to maintain ROW properly.

Minor Apparatus and Tools
Issue: 6 year old impact wrench not working properly. Wheel balancer is out of service and to have it repaired will run over $1,000.

Solution: Purchase 1" impact wrench to be used to remove and install heavy duty tire wheel nuts, approximate cost $900. Purchase a new wheel balancer approximate cost $1,600.

Result: Tire repair men will be able to remove and install heavy duty tire wheel nuts more effectively and assure secure tightness. New wheel balancer will allow proper wheel balancing.
