In a related matter discussed further on in the June board meeting, Dr. Bloomer noted that the statecertified boiler inspector who checked the furnace reported that “the children were in no danger" May 6 and 7 because the safety valves on the furnace were in operating condition and released steam to keep pressure levels down. "That was his assessment. It's only when the safety steam releasing valves don’t operate that you have problems.” Bloomer said.
Insisting that he didn’t want "any third party hearsay.” Eastham noted that the boiler inspectors assessment wasn’t in writing as requested by the school board. "This gentleman hasn't gone on the line over his signature and said there was no danger to the children." he concluded.
In a report on the boiler's status presented at the June meeting, Bloomer told the board everything on the unit was in order except the clock mechanism for the automatic coal feeder. Since replacement parts aren’t available, he said the piece would be sent to the manufacturer’s over the summer recess to be rebuilt.
In addition. Bloomer noted that the boiler inspector had visited the high school on May 29 to instruct the custodian Robert Clatterbuck on operation of the boiler.
He also informed the school board that the state fire marshal had determined that a two-hour rated fire door with closer and wire reenforced window must be installed between the shop area and the rest of the high school. The elementary school’s door to the boiler room must also have an approved door closer, according to the superintendent.
