NEW DIGS AT COPANO BAY

Big moment at site today.

The new modular office with includes our water quality and algae lab was delivered. 

Over the next few days it will be installed and the water and sceptic system put in and the electrical power  will be hooked up and we will have our professional headquarters, at least for the next few years, fully operational.                 

It is so much better when you have your offices under one roof where everyone congregates each day.

The synergy from having a team of bright and capable individuals interact on a daily basis in my past experience produces a superior work product that frankly, you just cannot achieve without that daily interaction.

Our management team is essential to seeing our production system reach the objectives and production performance parameters that will make this comapany so successful.

Having a comfortable working environment on site where each day the exchange of ideas and the aligned interests of the team can be allowed to flourish is one of several critical pathways to success.

After the past two years of working out of a rented container trailer in Port Isabel and the past 7 months of having half the team in Port Isabel and half up here, it is good to know that situation is about to be resolved. 

By this September everyone should be here on the Copano Bay site, at our new office pulling together to take this project to the next level.

There was also another very significant event at the site yesterday. 

As we were demolishing the old tin (and very rusted) shed on the site right behind were the office is being positioned, a nest of fledging barn owls were discovered. 

After some convincing and a little bit of gentle persuasion the three immature owls were captured and transported to the Texas State Aquarium where they will be held and fed and protected until they are ready to fly and hunt on their own at which time they will be released in an area near where we discovered them. 

(We made a generous donation and will continue to send future donations to the rehab center, they do great work there). 

I am now looking online into where I can order a few barn owl houses to put up on the 171 acres we have at Copano Bay for their future abodes. 

Failing that perhaps some other barn owls in the area may like a new home as well. 

I guess this week was about new "digs" for a couple of Copano Bay residents and workers.
