Abstract
This paper documents activities resulting from the formation of a design and engineering team that was created to develop and implement an effective solution to prevent damage from lightning. The lightning-caused damage was frequently occurring to an eastern New Mexico natural gas power plant grey water pumping/irrigation facility. This problem was solved through improved grounding including installation of a ground well.
