May 11-June 21, 2021 Operations Report
/Kevin Southworth, Operations Manager
During this period:
Turbidity levels have stayed below violation levels from May 12, and continue to present.
New water line installed at Clubhouse, connection to the main is pending. Currently no water service at Clubhouse and a portable toilet has been placed at the Marina until restrooms are available again.
Docks were launched on May 28.
At the beginning of June, overnight water flow (indicating water loss) increased to 10 gallons per minute and has gradually increased to 16 gpm (approximately 23,000 gallons per day) at the time of this report. The flow has been isolated to Hales Passage somewhere between Scenic Place and Scenic Avenue. Locating the main break has been a challenge after probing the area and excavating the water line in various locations.
Coming up:
Locating and repair of the water main break is the priority at this time
Complete Clubhouse water line replacement
Replacement of pump-back system pump
Installation of new finished water turbidimeter
