Mr. Weaver:
Please find enclosed three copies of the Annual Collection System Performance Report. I hope
you find it to be in order. This year, we made a trifold design that has been available in Town
Hall and on our website at http://www.townofwjnc.com/wwtp.html We placed the link at the
bottom of the January water/sewer bill for all customers to know where to find the report.
If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.
Sincerely,
RECEIVED
