Water Services, Twitter and Facebook - the Mysterious Hum Investigation Continues

The team investigating the Ranchlands hum met in April. Plans to coordinate a test with the City of Calgary Water Services were put into the final phase. The test will entail shutting down some of the water pumps that are part of Ranchlands water system. Residents who have been hearing the hum will be asked if they noticed any differences between when the pumps were on and off.

At the time of this article's writing, the City and team were still trying to coordinate when this test will take place. It appears likely that the test will take place in June, during a weekday evening. The date and time the test will occur will be shared with Ranchlands residents.

The team continues to hear from residents who are noticing the hum. People have reported hearing a low sound throughout their homes. In some cases, this hum has only recently noticed. The team encourages residents who are hearing the hum, or other 'odd' noise in their homes, to please be in touch through the Ranchlands Community Association at 403-241-0321.

The team has taken advantage of social media. They have a Facebook page set up titled "Ranchlands Hum" and a Twitter account @jmidi. Residents are welcome to follow the team at these locations. The blog can still be found at http://unidentifiednoiseincalgary.blogspot.com/

The team would like to thank the Associaiton and community for their patience. This type of investigation takes a fair bit of time. Your continued support is greatly appreciated.

RANCHLANDS MYSTERIOUS HUM JANUARY UPDATE

The Ranchlands Hum still plagues a number of residents. Happily, the City of Calgary is willing to help seek a resolution to the problem. The Noise Investigation Team, in conjunction with the City, wants to intensify the search efforts.

The first step in this direction is for the team to work with Calgary Water Works. The team has learned there is an auxiliary pumping station near Ranchlands that may or may not be a contributing factor to the Noise.

Water Works has said they are willing to arrange at test whereby they would shut the pumps down and see if the Noise goes away. In order for this to work, people affected by the Noise would have to be home and listening, shut things off and on in their individual homes and report any changes.

The team would like to hear from any Ranchlands residents interested in participating with this phase of the investigation. Once the team determines how many participants they are, arrangements will be made with Calgary Water Works. The time and date of the test will be made available soon afterwards.

Please contact the team either through the Ranchlands Community Association at 403-241-0356 or via email at jmidi@hotmail.com.
