Project Need
Need For Project:
GBRC operations have relied on warehouse forklifts to meet the needs of seed and equipment operations. This has entailed using these forklifts both on concrete/asphalt and in gravel/dirt, at certain times, which they are not designed for. This has put extra strain on the machines and delays when they are stuck or otherwise incapacitated. With the extremely heavy work seed season of fall 2020, the GBRC had an emergency need to rent a yard forklift to handle seed outdoors in wet, muddy conditions at a cost of ~$4,000 for two months of use. GBRC is proposing purchasing a small telehandler to meet the needs of both the seed warehouse and equipment operations. These machines are rugged with the clearance and 4x4 capability needed to navigate the GBRC yard during the fall/winter months of our highest seed and equipment workload. The machines are also highly versatile and we would investigate the option of including accessories for sweeping, pushing snow, and/or front-end loader. With the mobile nature of the machine, GBRC also foresees a machine of this nature being of value to individual and regional projects throughout the state and being used frequently in conjunction with our equipment and heavy equipment operations.
Replace plasma cutter for GBRC shop for equipment repair and fabrication.
After years of use two of the Ely chains GBRC uses for WRI projects are wearing out and need to be replaced. We propose purchasing new materials for new chains including: heavy chain and lighter chain for "lead chain', 2" steel bars, and hard facing wire.
Objectives:
Improve lift capabilities at GBRC yard operations.
Replace old equipment for restoration projects and maintenance work.
