The Smart Kamutik is sent out for repairs and SmartICE is unable to get ice conditions around the Nain area.
Rex Holwell Jr. is the Northern Production Lead for Smart ICE.
After last week’s run to Natuashish, Holwell says there was trouble with the Smart Kamutik.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, April 21 Holwell will travel to the town of Makkovik to train their operator.
By the end of this week the town of Makkovik will have an operator to operate the Smart Kamutiks.
As of today, he went to test out some fresh water Smart Kamutiks.
Holwell says the fresh water Kamutik runs good on ice roads, but it just needs to have no snow on the ice to properly work.
