Richard M. and Filiberto C. lifted the 208VAC 3ph wiring that had supplied the iLIGO MTP Turbo Pump.  This alllowed me to fully remove the conduit stub+unistrut and Hubble connector from the VEA floor.  Additionally, I removed the MTP - QDP80 signal cable junction box+conduit+unistrut support which was mounted on the VEA floor in the same facinity.  These items had intruded into the footprint of the pending installation of the new Turbo Pump Station.
