Village of Red Hook WATER DEPARTMENT REPORT
August 2025
H2O Innovation Operation & Maintenance LLC has completed their first full month as our Water Operator. We had an operational meeting on August 20[th] where we reviewed water operations.
We discussed the transfer to H2O for the water reports. H2O will be confirming with Dutchess County Department of Health what information they would like to have in our monthly water reports.
There have been some low chlorine residuals at certain end points in our water system. We discussed the possibility of adding automatic flushing to the hydrants in those locations.
Rich from Rural Water came to the Village to aid in finding possible leaks in the system. He is due to return to confirm certain locations.
We reviewed the sampling plan which we have but not in a clear written form. H2O will be aiding in the development of this formal plan.
At the Water Treatment Plant, a check valve is scheduled to be installed. There are check valves at each of the Wells, but there is not one in the Plant itself. All the parts are here. The work should be completed in September.
