Out on weekly average BOD for 9/16/2023 74 mg/I, 9/30/2023 BOD 59 mg/I.
This is due to clarifier return line malfunction air line has broken down. As for now we are using a sump
pump until we can repair the air line. To do this will have to take the tank down 50 %.
Being out on the weekly BOD has caused the monthly to go out for the average.
Have any questions give me a call.
