1 Location Lima, Ohio Electrical Engineering Inspection Construction Administration $333,047 Size Replaced 12,470 volt service with indoor 15 KV oil filled switches to 480 volt service Replaced /120 volt transformers with /120 Professional Services 2013 Construction: 2014 Daniel L. Knott, P.E., Project Manager Timothy Nelson, LEED AP Joel R. Sharrit AEP CARLTON HOUSE SERVICE UPGRADE Poggemeyer Design Group was retained by American Electric Power (AEP) for the engineering design of the upgrade to the electric service to an AEP owned residential apartment building in Lima, Ohio. The electrical system was upgraded from a 12,470 volt service with indoor 15 KV oil filled switches to a 480 volt service. The existing /120 volt transformers and equipment located on various floors of the 7-story building were replaced with /120 volt transformers and reconnected to the existing 240/120 volt distribution system. The facility was to remain in continuous operation during the upgrade. The installation of new equipment had to be planned with regard to locations and reconnection to facilitate the reconnection of the systems. Space was limited for the installation of the new transformers, panelboards and circuiting. Scheduling of the work was detailed and had to account for limited time outages and notification of the residents of the facility. The project was completed as planned with little inconvenience to the residents. Before John Jezak, City Manager City of Maumee 400 Conant Street Maumee, Ohio

2 Location Coldwater, Michigan Electrical Engineering, Project Administration $120,000 Study $3 million Project Size 3 miles of Transmission Line Professional Services 2006 Construction: 2006 Daniel L. Knott, P.E., Project Manager Gregory N. Chipps, Design Technician CITY OF COLDWATER SUBSTATION SWITCHGEAR EXPANSION PDG worked with the City of Coldwater to prepare a study and design for the addition of two units of 15KV outdoor protected aisle switchgear at the Coldwater Board of Public Utilities power plant substation. The design included the specification of equipment, bidding, construction drawings, relay coordination, relay setting development and duct bank design. Project costs came in under the engineer s estimate. : $120,000. PDG s personnel had previously provided engineering services for the design of three miles of 138KV transmission line on wood poles through the City of Coldwater and a 138/13.8KV substation. The substation included two 20MVA transformers with circuit switchers, low profile structures, 15KV protected aisle metal clad switchgear, protective relaying for the 138KV and 13.8KV systems, and underground circuit exits. The design for the installation of ten 1.2MV diesel engine generators at the substation was also provided in subsequent years. Project cost: $3 million.

3 Location Port Clinton, Ohio Professional Services 2007 Construction 2008 $40 million Phillip A. Whaley, P.E., Project Manager Daniel L.. Knott, P.E., Electrical Engineer FENNER DUNLOP PLANT EXPANSION 96 WIDE REINFORCED RUBBER CONVEYOR BELT MANUFACTURING PLANT Fenner Dunlop, the world s largest conveyor belting manufacturer for mining and industrial applications, selected PDG to provide complete A/E services for an expansion to its plant. The project included conceptual design, project scheduling and preliminary budget development, as well as assistance with and coordination of economic development incentives through the county planning office. After corporate approval of the project, PDG developed permit documents for zoning, Ohio EPA, industrial park, and county building inspection and utility department reviews. Final construction documents for the 86,000-square-foot facility were completed on a fast-track schedule. The project included a 90-foot wide by 700-foot long high bay manufacturing area with 75-ton full coverage overhead cranes, which were used to install heavy equipment and during the manufacture of the eight-foot wide by 14-foot diameter conveyor belt rolls, weighing 130,000 pounds more...

4 Fenner Dunlop Plant Expansion each. The project also included a 12,000-square-foot staging/shipping/receiving area and a 4,000-square-foot employee break room and restroom area. A 30,000-square-foot exterior roll storage area with reinforced 10-inch thick concrete pavement was also provided. The 90-year-old industrial site had significant undocumented underground utilities, rail spurs and vaults, with rail spur upgrades included in the site development. Design services included full-service architectural, civil, structural, mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, electrical, and process utility services and piping. Structural design also included machinery foundations, equipment pits, utility trenches and tunnels up to 16 feet deep and several hundred feet long to accommodate two current and one future belt line including raw rubber processing, multiple reinforced belt laminating pressing, curing and rewinding equipment. The plant is the only facility in North America capable of manufacturing a 96-inch wide reinforced conveyor belt. Construction administration included full-time, on-site inspection, contractor coordination, bidding and schedule updating services.
