Silver Creek Water in Sellersburg, IN

This 500,000 Gallon Elevated Tank in Sellersburg, IN is getting ready to be blasted down so that it can receive a brand new Induron Coating System. The containment rigging (the steel arms you see around the roof area) has just been welded on; and the rest of the containment system is getting installed. Once the containment system is installed, the crew will begin sandblasting the tank. You can see a picture here (below) of Caldwell Tanks' crew (the contractor who is painting the tank). I took a picture of them so you all could see the faces of men who actually get up there and put forth the hard labor to get these tanks painted. These guys deserve a lot of respect, as many of them you see here are responsible for painting many, many tanks over the years--all over the country. Bravo to these guys. From left: Darren, Doug, Billy, Angel, and in front is Scott. One of these guys is actually studying to be a full time minister. Each one of these guys brings something interesting to each tank site. Long Live the Tank and stay safe!
