Summary of Hab: The crew spent several hours this morning cleaning the Station and trying to mitigate mud intrusion on the floors. Tarps were placed on the floor in two of the rooms to reinforce the floor surfaces.

During external inspection of the Station it was found that several supporting poles for the Station walls were dislodged during the recent windstorm, compromising the structural integrity. These poles were reaffixed, and the walls appear to be structurally sound.

In addition to replenishing the propane supply, we also installed a charger to maintain our backup battery at a steady charge, and we are instituting a power management plan to reduce propane consumption on the generator.

Summary of Science Dome operations: Temperatures are hovering around 5°C during the day.
