Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
On 8/14/2019 I (Daniel Boss) conducted a follow up inspection at the Dana Hill WWTP. I met with
Jason Rummel (ORC) and Juanita James for the inspection.
The blowers still do not have guards covering the belts. This is a safety hazard and needs to be
corrected.
The composite sampling is still not flow proportional.
The flow meter readout is now working, and the meter has been calibrated recently.

The sampling is still not flow proportional. Mrs. James says that it's been difficult to find
someone to do the electrical work needed to connect the sampler to the flow meter.
