Mortimer - Rat in Residence

Travel Log

Honolulu, HI and Melbourne, Australia
Bogota, Columbia

In the spring of 2009, Akkerman purchased the traveling sewer rat from the 2009 International No-Dig Show’s North American Society for Trenchless Technology’s (NASTT) Education Auction. Mr. Rat originally hailed from the City of Reno, NV and first surfaced during the 2007 Third Annual Western Society for Trenchless Technology No-Dig Annual Conference. Glenn Boyce and the folks at Jacobs and Associates won him and he spent 2007 in Seattle, WA. He then traveled to Grapevine, TX for No-Dig 2008, was purchased by Pacific Boring and spent the year in Caruthers, CA. Please check back here for a complete accounting of Mortimer’s travels and also in an upcoming edition of Trenchless Technology.
