Just wanted to give you an update on the New Fairmont WWTP.
Since the facility came online June 10 startup and operational
conditions have stabilized and compliance is looking good.
There still remain a few warranty items that the Town, Engineers and
Contractors are hammering out.
I -am unaware of any complaints regarding the new outfall even with the
low flow conditions of the Lumber River this past summer. (Typically new
discharges bring new complaints, even when the facility is in
compliance.)
k..; you know there was much talk about additional flows being routed to
tha new WWTP during the permitting phase.
I:n a discussion with Ben Hill, Town Manager, today he indicated the
following:
The Town of Proctorville will be tying on soon that will add an
additional 30,000 gpd.
The community of Orrum will be tying on hopefully by February 2003 (no
flow given but less than Proctorville )
The community of Bordman will be the first phase of a three phase
project that will be tying on with a flow of 20,000 gpd.
_-hase II will be Cerro Gordo which will contribute 20,000 gpd and
Phase III will be the Town of Fairbluff which will contribute +/-
130,000 gpd.
Other updates will be forwarded as information is received.
Thanks
Pul R.
