What a View! New Cameras Added to EHS

New cameras mounted on the exterior of Elyria High School will offer additional views of the construction site. The newest camera sits high atop the Washington Building and offers a look at the preliminary site work along Middle Avenue in preparation for geothermal drilling. The area in front of the Washington Building is one of three sites for geothermal well fields, others are located along Seventh Street and West Avenue. Initially, two drilling rigs will set up and drill six days per week, Monday through Saturday, beginning early July. As many as three rigs may be on site at any one time in the coming months. The rigs will drill nearly 300 wells, each at 500 feet deep. Each rig is capable of drilling 1.5 to 2 wells per day. The drilling and geothermal site work is expected to be complete by the end of the year.
Meanwhile, work continues on the West Avenue parking lot and a new camera soon to be mounted on the current auditorium will do a good capturing the action. All told, five cameras will be affixed to the current high school and record in real-time, 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
