Marapharm Ventures Inc. Updates Shareholders on Progress in North Las Vegas, Nevada
KELOWNA, BC, July 27, 2018 /CNW/ - Marapharm Ventures Inc. (CSE: MDM) (OTCQX: MRPHF) (FSE: 2M0) ("Marapharm" or the "Company") announced on June 1, 2018, that cloning had begun in preparation for the transition to the permanent facilities.
Kurt Keating, Director of Operations, reports that several hundred clones have taken root over the past eight weeks in our transitional buildings and are exhibiting vigorous growth. "Our Cultivators are in the process of a secondary 'cutting' of clones to commence a perpetual harvest schedule. We remain on track and do not anticipate delays to our production schedule."
Subsequent to the Company's June 14, 2018 news release, the City of North Las Vegas determined the following minor adjustments are required prior to the final granting of the Certificates of Occupancy:
Outdoor lighting provided by street light standards within the property boundaries, are complete and operational. However, two off-site street light standards on the roadway leading to the Marapharm property remain unpowered and the Company is working on either getting this requirement waived by the City or providing a temporary power source to the lights.
The (2) 2,000-gallon propane tanks were originally approved for their size and installation method, however, the City has amended their requirements to include an engineered bolt system to anchor the tanks to the slab. The slab is already constructed and the propane tanks in place according to the original engineered specifications. The propane tanks can be viewed by the drone footage provided on the Marapharm website under the Las Vegas Project, however given the City's recent requirements the new bolt system has been fabricated and waiting installation upon the City approval of the new drawings and permit.
Adjustments were made to the fire protection system and the inspection is complete. We have received verbal approval from the City for the design of the suppression flow and are waiting on our written permit, which is imminent.
Additional stop signs and parking signs were required and installation of these are now complete.
