Sewer Report - July 13th, 2026

Things are currently status-quo at the sewer.

We have had three instances of note:

  1. An overflow at the post office pump station - easily remediated

  2. A high mudwell at the plant - resolved by backwashing

  3. High temperatures in the plant - due to summer heat and thriving “bugs”. We will monitor temperature of outflow to ensure well-being of Massoneau wetland

Les Coon and Jake Smith provided estimates for safety railing updates within the plant. Costing about $3000, within budget for standard maintenance and care.

Delaware Engineering recently provided two engineering schematics:

  1. Short-term updates to optimize capacity at current plant

  2. Extensive plans for expansion project

The Daily Catch visited the plant, following up on a former article regarding WWTP.

Trustee Allen is currently receiving quotes from various energy suppliers to renegotiate our costs - should have everything for the Board by the next workshop meeting.

Follow-up Questions:

  • Status of IMG?
