The wastewater plant expansion is in its final stages and the plant is fully operational. Only minor site grading and punch list items remain outstanding. The SD East lift station, serving the commercial area on 15-501,was completed in August 2022 and is now fully operational. Our new state of the art odor control system is fully operational and we have noticed reduced odors at the plant. The diffused air system is increasing efficiencies with plant operations,reducing odors, and it is significantly quieter than the old floating aerators and blowers. In January 2022, due to excessive rain, we experienced difficulties with our contractor for sludge removal. This led to some NOVs due to the excessive sludge that the plant was forced to hold. In February we switched contractors to one who uses a different sludge removal process. This new process is much more reliable and is not hampered by weather conditions. The new contractor has helped tremendously with sludge removal and by allowing ONSWC to keep plant operations in compliance with state standards. As of Februrary 2022, we are fully in compliance with our permit and no additional NOVs have occurred. It is worth noting that there are NOVs from April and June of 2022 on NCDEQs website, but NCDEQ has informed us that there was a software glitch associated with these NOVs and they are investigating the issue. The plant was fully in compliance with its permit during those timeframes. We are working through these NOVs and will report back to the BCCA and the management company with the resolution. In December 2022, Irrigation Package H was approved and it will help significantly with water disposal and with maintaining freeboard in the storage ponds. This takes our irrigation capacity to 442,687 gallons per day. We are working diligently with Briar Chapel, Encore, Parks and Recreation, and the trail community to dispose of water with minimal inconvenience to the community. Irrigation start up is planned for mid-March 2023. As we get closer, we will update the community through our website and by communicating with the management company, Kuester. We ask for your continued efforts in eliminating fats, oils and grease from the wastewater system. They are harmful to your pipes and can cause sewage backups or overflows, both in your home and in the community. We have attached a Grease Goblin flyer to this report. You will be seeing more information from them in the coming months. 0Fq6)NSWC OID NORTH STATE WATER COMPANY In closing, Old North State Water Company is 100% committed to providing the Briar Chapel community with a safe and reliable wastewater system.
