Other observations: • A solenoid valve in Z3 was broken preventing irrigation in this zone. It has since been repaired and irrigation has continued in this zone. • A set of changing rooms and a bathroom has been built next to the lake. The bathroom is connected to the system. • All irrigation zones were not inspected during irrigation due to vegetation and insects. Ms. Caudle walked the bottom of Z3 and Z4 and saw no signs of runoff. • The flood plain study has been completed. Once the forcemain path is finalized an application can be submitted to the City of Greensboro. • DWR can assist with decommissioning the system once the connection to city sewer is made. • The flow meter was calibrated on 7/21/2022. • No solids have been removed from the system since the last inspection other than the grease trap. • Soil samples have not been collected for 2022 yet. The 2021 soil reports show no issues. • A propane generator provides back up power for the lift station. • All existing sewer lines for the camp enter a junction box at the treatment unit. Junction Box ❑ Septic Tank ❑ Microfast Unit ❑ CCC ❑ Wet Well ❑ Storage pond • Mr. Burton stated that the septic tank probably needs to be checked for solids build up. • The flows reported on the NDMRs is based on the flowmeter on the irrigation pumps. • No anti -foaming agents are used. • Duckweed was covering the storage pond. • There is no back up power at the irrigation pumps.
