Consumer Energy Hooks Up the Pump in Heritage Park

The pump in Heritage Park was not working for a while now even though the generator was roaring all the time. I thought it was not necessary after Savoy had the well re-drilled a week ago. Today Consumer Energy was connecting the well area to the grid on Heritage Park, temporarily blocking off driving access to the lower part of the Park (disk golf and model plane field). As soon as they had the box hooked up the pump started working - indicating that the generator did not provide enough power?

Today (August 9) the pump was off and the generator is still roaring despite having electricity from the grid. Seems wasteful to me...
