October 16, 2014 I The Lovell Chronicle I 15
BY DAVID PECK
The water and sewer mains and
service lines are finished, street
grinding is under way, joint sealing
is to follow and if the weather holds,
the Lovell Main Street Project should
wrap up on time, project officials said
this week.
Timing has prevented the block
from Kansas to Jersey from becom-
ing a soft closure block, as just after
sidewalk work and cleanup was com-
pleted, the street grinding work had
reached the block.
The grinding contractor, Multi-
ple Concrete Enterprises, Inc., of Og-
den, Utah, started work Monday, Oct.
6, and reached Jersey this week. Rei-
man Corp. Project Supt. Lloyd Wulf
said at Tuesday's public meeting that
grinding could be completed to Jersey
by Saturday night, then move west to
Hampshire next week.
Grinding is being done for profile
(removing high spots) and then tex-
ture, Wulf said, requiring multiple
passes.
Next up is asphalt paving where
the concrete street intersects with
side streets and the highway at each
end of town, and WyDOT Resident
Engineer Ben Steed said a Mountain
Construction crew should be work-
ing by the end of the week, paving
Jersey Avenue first, after which the
detour will be moved one block west
from Kansas to Jersey, opening up the
block to traffic.
Officials said there will be some
temporary intersection closures
during the paving work at Nevada
and at Oregon.
Joint sealing will begin this week
as well, officials said. The work in-
volves grinding and cleaning the ex-
pansion joints in the concrete pave-
ment, then filling and sealing the
joints much like crack sealing is done
on streets and highways.
SUNDAY WORK?
With warm weather critical to the
process, the joint sealing contractor
has asked to work this Sunday, Oct.
19, if necessary, Councilman Brian
Dickson reported to the Lovell Town
Council Tuesday night. Dickson said
the contractor is checking church ser-
vice schedules for Main Street church-
es so as not to disturb worship ser-
vices but would like to work later in
the day if necessary.
The sealing process can be quite
noisy, he said.
"There is a 90 percent chance they
won't have to work on Sunday," Dick-
son said, "but they want permission,
just in case."
The council voted to allow the
contractor to work this Sunday if
necessary.
HKM REPORT
Engineer Andrew Mattie of
DOWL HKM Engineering gave his
monthly update at Tuesday's coun-
cil meeting and said the Main Street
project is progressing well.
"All of the water and sewer sys-
tem has been tested and finished,"
Mattie said, "and we've put back all of
the concrete sidewalks and curb and
gutter. Grinding is progressing well.
Fortunately, we've had really good
weather.
"The closeout date is Nov. 6, and I
think WyDOT will make that."
Mattie said the Town of Lovell
has been very good to work with, not-
ing the steady and helpful presence of
Dickson.
"Ninety-nine times out~ of 100, if
you told me a council member would
follow me around, I might ask for ex-
tra pay," Mattie said, "but I had Brian
Dickson. He's done a really good job,
and we couldn't have done it without
him. And he never takes much credit."
Added Town of Lovell Public
Works Director Doug Savage, "Bri-
an has been great on the project. He's
saved me a ton of time."
Mattie noted that preparations
are already under way for the asphalt
paving, which he said could begin as
early as Thursday or Friday or as late
as early next week.
"People will have to be a little bit
flexible, but it will move pretty quick,"
he said of the process. "We're trying to
open it up (Main Street) as quickly as
possible."
Mattie said work on the punch list
will begin on the east end of town and
work west, adding, "If the weather
holds, we should be close to 100 per-
cent by Christmas."

Quick facts on Breast Cancer
• Breast is the most common in American women
and the second leading cause of women's cancer
deaths.
• The five year survival rate of breast cancer is over
90% when detected early.
• In 1940, the lifetime risk of a woman developing
breast cancer was 5%, or one in 20.
• In 2005, the American Cancer Society estimates
that risk to be 13%, or almost one in eight.
• 70% of all women with breast cancer have no
known risk factors.
• Male breast cancer is a rare disease, but the
incidence has increased over the past 25 years.
Who
Should Get
Screened?
The American Cancer
Society's current
Breast Cancer
Screening Guidelines
recommend yearly
mammograms
Mary Freund at age 40 and Shelby Frost
FNP, GNP-BC continuing for as FNP, BC
long as a woman is
in good health, clinical breast exam about every 3 years
for women in their 20s and 30s and every year for women
40 and over, and that all women should know how their
breasts normally look and feel and should report ANY
breast change promptly to their doctor or nurse. Breast
self-exam (BSE) is an option for women starting in their
20s. Women are encouraged to make healthy lifestyle
choices such as eating a healthy diet, getting regular
physical activity, and reducing alcohol, if a woman drinks.
These choices can help reduce their breast cancer risk.The
American Cancer Society also encourages regular breast
exams and mammograms to find breast cancer early, when
it is most likely to be curable. Mary Freund, GNP, FNP-BC
and Shelby Frost, FNP-BC are offering free clinical breast
exams and cancer risk screening for women when they
schedule their mammograms at North Big Horn Hospital in
October.
Please call North Big Horn Hospital Clinic at 548-5201 to
schedule your complementary clinical breast exam and
cancer risk screening. Or call the radiology department at
548-5245 to schedule your digital mammogram without
providers' orders.
