I'm in Center this week at the Minnkota power plant, Knife River has a portable batch plant on site, mud is horrible. Truck got loaded at 10:30 tested at pump at 10:40 temp was 82 degrees! Hot water, hot super dry material that sucks all the moisture out, the engineer out here is by the book to a T. If your max is 4 and it comes at a 4 and a half see ya rejected, and it drys out quick. They test every single freakin truck too, the biggest joke ever. I believe Im pouring a couple hundred yards for that company doing that 6000 yard mat pour this week while im here. Oh and the coal dust, my nice clean truck is now black. Hope your looking forward to this place.

JUST KEEP YOUR CHIN UP BROTHER AND KEEP WATCHING YOUR HOPPER. DON'T NEED A BOOM PARTY. DOCUMENT EVERY LOAD THAT IS REJECTED SO IF SOMETHING HAPPENS YOUR COMPANY CAN POINT FINGERS FOR PAYMENT.

carry plenty of spare pipe for the boom party so you can get back to operating. will there be a man lift available.

Hey we all get paid by the hour, right?
