<P>24The Military Engineer l May-June l 2010 Construction operations for a detail in a remote area can be quite different and inherently more dangerous than operations at the main body site due to its small size and close proximity to hostile forces. Situational awareness is critical and a security plan is always in place. It takes planning to get a detail to a project site and carry out the mission safely, and it takes planning to get one back safely, as well. Cdr. Tobias states that his plan for their safe return and the return home of the battalion as a whole, is more than just a plan; it is a mission.

Even before the overthrow of for- mer president Saddam Hussein, Iraqis only had electricity for two to four hours a day. And most Iraqi citizens just work around the outages, and carry on with- out out electricity. For the Iraqi Ministry of Interior, which handles policing and border con- trol in Iraq, having uninterrupted elec- trical power in its 11-story headquarters building is not an option; its a necessity. Faced with an aged, deteriorating elec- trical distribution system, the ministry turned to the U.S. Army Corps of Engi- neers (USACE) Gulf Region District for solutions to upgrade the system. Tim Ernster, an electrical engineer in the districts Loyalty Resident Of?ce, said the goal of the $6.5 million electri- cal distribution project is to upgrade the ministrys electrical system and double its current capacity. The essence of the Ministry of Inte- rior electrical upgrade project is to en- hance the capacity and reliability of the electrical service to the headquarters building, Ernster said. The project ba- sically doubles the amount of electrical power the headquarters building can safely consume by changing out switch gears and transformers within the build- ing, and constructing a new substation and backup power generator farm to provide more sources of energy. Ernster says a third part of the plan includes constructing a paralleling switch-gear facility to integrate the two main power sources with the existing utility feed.
