We are taking or will take the following actions to correct the deficiencies identified during the recent inspection: • We have engaged John Wade. P.E. of Arendell Engineers (Morehead City) to evaluate the condition of the treatment plant including the areas identified during the recent inspection. He will identify needed repairs, materials, and methods. • It is our intention to complete needed repairs during the coming off-season low flow period. • The Board and CCMC will increase oversight of Fortin Water and Sewer Contract Services to assure our contract operator is performing the required operating and maintenance tasks as specified in their contract. We do request clarification of the issue of telemetry for the lift station. The Notice of Violation refers to telemetry as a recommendation, but it also refers to a portion of the North Carolina code that seems to require telemetry. Please confirm that telemetry is required.
