There is a distinct cool, crisp air in the mornings as IRE students head to class. Fall is here, the leaves are changing daily creating a gorgeous combination of colors spread throughout the Iron Range area. Yesterday, some of the students played football in front of the Mesabi campus after class. Things are continuing to evolve at IRE as fast as the leaves are changing. A couple of the reasons for that is the guidance we continue to get from our faculty and the new ideas and suggestions that come with an incoming group of new students.
The United Taconite team is continuing to make progress everyday with the new filter wash system. The past week, most of us have been dedicating time to understanding how nozzles, pipe connections, and pipe lengths effect the pressure of a system. The purpose of that is to determine the approximate maximum pressure our system pump would need to produce. As fall continues to creep in, I would strongly encourage anyone who has a chance, get out and enjoy the fall weather and the fantastic scenery this time of year provides.
