All data appeared to be correct. A new bar screen was installed around the first of 2013. A newly refurbished clarifier is at the plant waiting to be installed. This will allow both sides of the plant to operate if necessary. At this time, AQUA checks the sludge in the contact chamber in several locations and removes the sludge once it reaches a certain level. This is being recorded in a log, and was reviewed during the inspection. Standby power was tested during the inspection under a load, and the genarator appeared to be able to run the whole plant.
