Mr. Boone met with Hal Young, Operator in Responsible Charge (ORC), and Bradley Flynt, Backup ORC. Their assistance and cooperation was greatly appreciated. Inspection findings are detailed in the attached Water Compliance Inspection Report and summarized below. - The plant appears to be in good condition with minimal corrosion or other structural issues. - The mixed liquor appears healthy with no foul odors. - The effluent from the clarifiers appears clear with no pin floc and the weirs appear level. - The flow meter is due for calibration in June, 2022. - The effluent flow sampler is set up to pull constant time/constant volume samples. It must be set up to pull flow proportional samples. - The effluent appears clear with no detectable solids or foam, and no foul odor. The receiving stream looks good. - All reviewed documentation was compliant and all required documentation was readily available, complete, and current. Mr. Boone noted no other concerns, deficiencies, or violations. Please be aware that the Division may take enforcement action against any permittee who fails to comply with any requirement of their permit.
