🌟 Employee Spotlight: Michael Haefemeyer 🌟 We are incredibly proud to highlight the outstanding actions of our 5-star employee, Michael Haefemeyer. Recently, Michael noticed an elderly gentleman with a walking stick approaching a busy intersection. Without hesitation, Michael stepped in to assist, ensuring the gentleman crossed safely.

This heartwarming story was shared with us by a representative from one of our valued customers, AT&T. Michael’s kindness and willingness to go above and beyond exemplify the values we hold dear at 5 Star Energy Services. His actions are a testament to the positive impact we can all have on our community.

We couldn’t be prouder of our incredible team out in Wausau! Their dedication and hard work have not only kept us ahead of deadlines but have also played a crucial role in providing clean water to the community. Your commitment to excellence and the well-being of our community is truly inspiring. Thank you for your relentless efforts and for making a positive impact every day. We are proud to be a huge part of providing clean water across the country! Keep up the amazing work!
A year and four months ago I had a meeting with Shawn Kerachsky and the team at Community Infrastructure Partners about how LIUNA could partner up to #gettheleadout of the city of Wausau,WI. The Wisconsin Laborers have been a community outreach and workforce development/ training partner in this CBP3 delivery model established by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) This program is spread out over 5 years and the goal for this first year in 2024 was to replace 553 lead laterals. As of this week they have accomplished that goal ahead of schedule ! This is not only addressing the health impacts lead has on people’s health in this community, but it is creating family supporting careers as union laborers for local residents. Next year the goal is 1800 lead laterals replaced and if the funding is approved, I know our members are ready to get to work continuing to get the lead out!!! Thank you to our signatory contractor partner Five Star Energy Services, LLC for all of your hard work on this project! https://lnkd.in/gY5wrcpY

It is an honor to be a part of this mission, providing clean water in the safest and most efficient manner, not only in Wisconsin but across the United States.
It was quite an honor to be in Milwaukee for President Biden's announcement of the EPA's final Lead and Copper Rule Improvements, which are focused on eradicating the 9 million remaining toxic lead water pipes over ten years. I was awestruck to be in the room surrounded by so many of the people who have played such a pivotal role in getting us to this historic achievement. Reflecting on this moment, I can't help but be highly optimistic that we're going to get there, primarily fueled by our journey in this space, which began just over 18 months ago at Vice President Harris's Get The Lead Out Summit in Washington, DC where I had the pleasure of meeting then Wausau, WI Mayor Katie Rosenberg for the first time. Katie sat on a panel of mayors and proclaimed that Wausau had 40,000 people and 8,000 remaining lead service lines and had never replaced more than 55 lines in a given year, but come hell or high water, she was going to leverage the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) funding to replace all lines in Wausau within the five years of BIL, an audacious claim at the time, but unsurprising for anyone that has ever met Katie. Through her unwavering commitment and fearlessness in being the national guinea pig for a Community-Based Public Private Partnership (CBP3) delivery approach to removing LSLs, along with the tireless work of DPW Director Eric Lindman and his staff, we are about a month away from closing out the first year of construction, and the results couldn't be more encouraging. We are replacing 60 lines per week and closing in on the 500-line mark, well on our way to 600+, all of which are private side replacements in the most disadvantaged census tracts of Wausau. Next year, that number goes to 1,800! We wouldn't even be here without the support and advocacy of Timothy Male of Environmental Policy Innovation Center, who first brought this issue to our attention and recognized that a CBP3 was the perfect vehicle to maximize the opportunity to not only replace lead service lines but to do it in a manner that maximized the economic development opportunities for the communities that have been most affected. In addition to Tim and Maureen Cunningham, a special thank you to the tireless efforts and commitment to this critical public health issue that made this day possible Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) Steve Fleischli, Erik D. Olson, Angela Guyadeen, Unleaded Kids,Tom Neltner, Environmental Defense Fund, Roya Alkafaji, Young, Gifted & Green™, LaTricea Adams, MAT, Ed.S., Radhika Fox, Bruno Pigott, Wendi Wilkes, US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), The Joyce Foundation, Elizabeth Cisar, Governor Tony Evers Lastly, our success in Wausau would not be possible without the work of LIUNA, Kent Miller, Saul Castillo, Five Star Energy Services, LLC, DAAR Engineering, Inc., Hmong and Hispanic Network and Wisconsin Institute for Public Policy and Service.. #CIP #CBP3 #Wisconsin #Gettheleadout #LSLR #Infrastructure

👉 Employee Spotlight: Brian Guard 👈 We are thrilled to shine the spotlight on Brian Guard, our exceptional foreman at Five Star Energy Services. Brian has been instrumental in driving the success of the Indiana CenterPoint market. Initially hired to operate under the existing foreman for main installations, Brian’s impact was immediately felt as production soared. It quickly became clear that his talents extended far beyond his initial role. Since stepping into the foreman position, Brian has demonstrated an impressive depth of knowledge and outstanding leadership skills. He consistently goes above and beyond to ensure every task is completed to the highest standard, never shying away from any challenge, regardless of his title. Brian’s dedication and hard work have been pivotal to our productivity and the quality of work we deliver. Without his leadership, Five Star Energy Services would not have achieved the remarkable results we see today. Thank you, Brian, for your unwavering commitment and for setting such a high standard for excellence. We are proud to have you on our team!
