Here are the pictures. You can see the port for a generator to hook up on the outside of the building. We
also have the propane generator inside the building that comes on currently anyme the power goes out to
run the large booster pump.
Let me know if you have any quesons.

I just spoke to Brandi Smith at the Division and confirmed that we just need to send a photo of the generator
and the deficiency will be dismissed. If you will reply to this email to Jennifer Yee with the photo attached
that should cover it.

Thanks,
Melanie

Jennifer,

I left you a couple messages, and wanted to let you know I learned the system (Deseret Feedlot Community
System #25044) does have a backup propane generator inside the pump house building, so actually there
is no deficiency.

What do we need to do at this point to dismiss the deficiency? Do you need photos of the generator or
something like that, or do we need someone to come out and re-survey? Please advise.

Many thanks,
