Again, another exciting week as a Delaware City Public Utilities Intern. This week began with Janelle assigning me to work on a new cul de sac that is currently under development. This assignment was similar to the previous ones I have had and included the usual adding in the water, sewer, and storm infrastructure as well as editing anything that was already drawn in but not correct. Although the general task was the same as previous weeks, this assignment was quite a bit more difficult. This map, which we received from the engineers was sent in a different format then normal and thus made it impossible for Janelle and I to query out some of the unwanted or unneeded drawings and material. This left us with a very crowded and hard to read map. So in order to draw in the structures which we needed we had to be very detail oriented and pay very close attention to ensure we were following the correct lines. Clearly this task was a little more advanced then what I have been doing, however once I got started I got comfortable with it and I am glad Janelle trusted me to give it a shot. Due to the complexity though I only managed to draw in about 75% of the water features, with storm and sewer having to wait.

Unfortunately on Friday I could not report to my internship due to illness. My first sick day I have ever taken! So I am hoping to feel better and be able to continue my assignment on Monday!

I also spent a good amount of time this week working on my final paper reviewing my internship. Its fun and interesting going back and reading my old post to compile them into one concise paper. Looking back I see all the great lessons and skills I have learned!
