Bill Munch Web Page
Here, Bill munch is extolling the virtues of Chittenden Falls HEP to Will Fay.
Will Fay, Bill Munch and Celesty are dropping through the trap door to observe the Chittenden Falls turbines.
Bill Munch is admiring his handiwork. This is one of many hydroelectric stations that he brought on line.
Our good friend, Bill Munch, explaining the Valatie Falls No. 2 turbine to Celesty and Will
Bill Munch, Celesty, Ronnie and Will at Stottsville. Bill was advising them on site development scenarios.
Bill doesn't like his picture being taken!!
Here, Bill Munch is explaining the benefit of 45 degree sloping racks to Will Fay. King Tut is in the background barking out orders. When the racks are at a 45 degree slope, the water's velocity rolls the trash up the slope of the racks, to the top, where it is easily removed. Peter Clark's Collins site was the first time I saw 45 degree racks installed.
i Bill: The date and time for my Dad's memorial service has been set. There are no calling hours.
I would be grateful if you would pass
the information along to all interested parties . It will
also be published in the Berkshire Eagle, and other
newspapers this week.
