June 11-July 12, 2020 Operations Report

Kevin Southworth, Operations Manager

During this period:

  • Published Annual Water Quality Report for 2019 (Consumer Confidence Report)

  • Plant shutdown controls and new monitoring system installed

  • Complete filter-to-waste upgrade for pump #1 and 2.

  • Begin testing new coagulant

In June turbidity levels did not exceed violation levels. In July the treatment plant has exceeded 0.3 NTU more than 5% of the month while we test the performance of a new coagulant. We expect to incur a treatment technique violation in July.

Our Department of Health Sanitary Survey is scheduled for July 15 (video conference) and July 21 (in person visit). This is a periodic inspection of our water system facilities
