This final report is in fulfillment of CWCB's water efficiency grant <br />program requirements. A summary of the project status and obstacles are <br />described. <br />Project Status <br />The installation of the garden has been completed and all signs have been <br />installed. Brochures have also been prepared and are available at the site or at <br />ELCO's office. <br />nhcta~lec <br />Installation time frame originally planned for early summer was delayed until <br />August and was completed by the end of that month. ELCO installed the <br />signage for the plants at the end of September. The location of the garden <br />experienced hail after the installation, which damaged some of the plants. Due <br />to all these factors ELCO decided to delay the open house until early next year. <br />Summary <br />ELCO has completed all steps as outlined in Application for Water Efficiency <br />Grant. ELCO will send out a press release in the local newspapers and will also <br />have a separate newsletter enclosed in ELCO's customer bills to announce the <br />garden in the spring of 2009. <br />Enclosure <br />
