Alaska Power and Telephone's Sonny Myers directs two front-end loaders lifting a 28-ton diesel generator into the utility's Dalton Street power plant Jan. 31. The 1,830-kilowatt generator is seven years old and was recently rebuilt after use at AP&T's Tok power plant. The generator will be ready for use later this year. It will be used in tandem with other generators there, said AP&T power manager Danny Gonce. A bay at the powerhouse had to be enlarged for the installation.
