Top view… The Hoover Tower at Stanford University, an important landmark in the Central Peninsula, has recently been repaired to replace the stone decoration on the top of the building that was destroyed by lightning in August. Some fragments on the last sphere were found to be 50 feet high from the tower. Last week, a three-person staff member boarded a construction basket with the sphere, and lifted the nearly 300-foot-tall tower to the top of the tower. An article from Stanford News on February 22 stated that a “lightning arrester” system was added to provide additional safety for the new ball. They set up lightning rods, which were 18 inches above the tower and 8 feet below the ground. District Director Stephen Clarkson said in the article: “The lightning arrester system will protect the structure, equipment, and most importantly, the safety of ground personnel.” Without this system, the steel frame of the tower may be struck by lightning. It will damage buildings and electronic equipment. The basement of the tower has also added a lightning protection system to monitor future lightning strikes of the building. According to Stanford News, the tower was previously struck by lightning in December 1970. Falcons usually flock in during the nesting season, so the university ensures that this work is done before the winged creatures are expected to arrive next week. In order to keep the falcon comfortable during the journey, the crew also set up a nest box for the birds to lay eggs.
Strong investment…Acterra is one of 11 organizations that have received a community promotion grant from Peninsula Clean Energy. The organization announced the winners in a press release on February 22. The Palo Alto-based non-profit organization plans to use funds for virtual induction cooking demonstrations, distributing information about building electrification to the public and online seminars, and other efforts to educate first-time electric car buyers. A total of US$316,440 in grants were allocated between US$15,000 and US$40,000 to assist recipients for many efforts, including electrification; income-eligible electricity discounts and plans; electric vehicle rebates; and household energy assistance. “These grants will especially help residents of East Palo Alto and other parts of the county who not only face the most severe effects of the economic downturn during this pandemic, but they have not historically received the same benefits as the wealthier communities. Clean, affordable and reliable resources, East Palo Alto Mayor Carlos Romero said in a statement.
