Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Morganton, North Carolina
In accordance with the North Carolina Local Government Fiscal Control Act, the
recommended budget for fiscal year 2024/2025 is presented for your consideration. The
budget document represents balanced revenues and expenditures. Using resources to
invest in our future requires leadership and vision. Each City department provides
necessary services and contributes to the team. The capital budgets include equipment
replacements, facility and infrastructure investments and park improvements. The
budget summary by fund is included below:

Not included in the summary above, but presented within this document, is the budget
for the Intergovernmental Service Fund. This fund is an internal service fund and
represents costs already accounted for within the General and Enterprise Funds.
Inclusion of this fund in the statistical summary above would include these expenditures
twice.
Our commitment to making Morganton a community of choice is stronger than ever. We
continue to enjoy success when we match fiscal responsibility with investments for the
future, engage our private partners and leverage our opportunities to make our dollars
go further. The status quo has never been our style. Making investments that keep us
on a path for future opportunities is who we are. This budget proposal guides us as we
make investment decisions.
Timelines for projects continue to expand as supplies and delivery times remain
challenging. Rising fuel costs affect every service we provide. Cost to purchase or
construct projects have never been higher. Vehicle purchases remain a challenge
due to availability. The cost of borrowing funds for capital purchases has increased
significantly.
The 2024/2025 total budget is $93,772,661, which is $7,694,460 or 7.5% less than the
revised budget for 2023/2024. Again, the large capital projects that are in annual
budgets for multiple years while funding is arranged skews the year-to-year
comparison. We continue to use project funds to account for multi -year projects. When
they are funded Bethel Park Phases I and II and the expansion of sewer service in the
Bost Road area continue. Large water and wastewater projects funded with assistance
from the State have been moved to multi -year project funds. Staff continues to solicit
and secure private grant funding and private donations to assist in completing
investments.
The long-standing partnership between the City of Morganton and other governmental
partners in the areas of economic development, airport service, public library services
and public transportation continue. The funding associated with these partnerships
equates to the value of 2.8 cents on the proposed tax rate. In the 2024/2025 budget
proposal, these entities are funded as follows:
Burke Development, Inc. (BDI) $ 302,449
Burke County Library 242,500
Foothills Regional Airport Authority 47,137
WPCOG 29,487
DIG Incentive 42,726
Greenway Transportation 14,000
Total $ 678.299
The BDI contributions fund operations and local incentives to industry. Local incentives
to industry are included at $208,639. We are fortunate local business and industry
expansions and/or improvements continue. The Foothills Airport requests includes
funding for operational capital. The capital request is to accumulate local matching
funds for federal grants for airport improvements in the future. Hopefully, hanger
development is one of those improvements.
The library request of $242,500 is all for operations. The City continues to budget
$7,500 a year to do routine maintenance on the library grounds, which is in
addition to the requested amount in this schedule. The budget proposal includes
$14,000 to continue funding the public transit route in Morganton. The DIG amount
of $42,726 is for Alpine Mill a mixed -use project and the Downtown Fairfield hotel.
In the next few pages, I want to give a summary of each fund including
assumptions regarding revenues for next budget year. Each proposed budget
includes a Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The total capital plan proposed is
almost $30,000,000. This is higher than usual, but reflects our commitment to
invest in the infrastructure needed to support our services and make Morganton a
community of choice. All funds, except the Electric Fund, require an appropriation
of fund balance or retained earnings to balance. In no case is the use of these
savings at a level that raises concerns or jeopardizes the financial viability of any
of our operations.
General Fund
The General Fund is home of traditional government services — police, fire,
sanitation, street maintenance, engineering, zoning and inspections. For
Morganton citizens it is also home to cultural activities and functions provided by
Main Street, Recreation, CoMMA and the Community House. Economic factors
influence the consistency of revenues in this fund. NC General Assembly
decisions affect the General Fund, which is dependent on property taxes, sales
taxes, ABC revenues, occupancy taxes and grant funding.
The 2024/2025 proposed budget is $42,732,350. This is $2,878,283 more than the
revised budget for 2023/2024 due to significant capital investments included in the
CIP. The services that keep Morganton a cut above other towns are supported
with General Fund resources. Affordability of services for our citizens remains a
priority. Capital investments support great parks, first class facilities and quality of
life.
After several years of adding larger than usual sums to the fund balance at fiscal
year-end, we are seeing that trend slow. Years of sales taxes being higher than
predicted and success in collecting prior years' taxes from delinquent payers have
fueled that growth.
The double-digit growth in year -over -year sales tax revenues has leveled and a
normal growth of 1.5% is projected for next year yielding a total sales tax revenue
projection of $6,920,661. Other state -shared revenues are projected to be flat.
Ad Valorem Taxes — The 2024/2025 proposed budget includes a recommendation
to keep the current tax rate of $0.50/$100. Staff believes this will generate
$12,350,000 at a 98.5% collection rate. This is the single largest revenue in the
General Fund.
Downtown Special Tax (MSD Tax) — The 2024/2025 proposed budget includes a
recommendation to keep the current downtown special tax rate at $0.12/$100,
which staff believes will generate $165,000 or 21 % of the 2024/2025 Main Street
operational expenditures. One cent on the downtown tax rate generates about
$13,000. Investment by property owners in downtown properties is reflected in that
growth. The 2017 Masterplan continues to guide efforts to reinvest in Downtown
Morganton and keep the heart of our community vibrant.
Motor vehicle taxes, utility franchise taxes, Power Bill revenue and State -shared
ABC revenue are fairly consistent with some slight increases budgeted. Local ABC
revenue and occupancy taxes continue to be bright spots in revenue collections.
They are budgeted at $400,000 and $175,000, respectively for 2024/2025.
Occupancy taxes are definitely supported by business travel and leisure travel.
Our investment in beautification, cultural and recreational facilities, and
programming supports tourism efforts. ABC profits are projected to decline due to
increased costs associated with the move to a newer, larger and more updated
facility during next budget year. The larger updated retail space for ABC should
generate additional sales and allow for more product to be available.
The proposed General Fund CIP totals $17,763,000. The CIP includes
investments in equipment purchases, vehicle purchases, facilities improvements,
park improvements, new facilities and funding for a rewrite of our zoning ordinance.
Renovations to the Historic Burke County Courthouse continue with $250,000
budgeted for painting the exterior of the building and cupola repairs. Burke County
will pay for half of this work. Partnering with Burke County to keep this piece of our
history properly maintained is important.
Highlights of the proposed CIP include $250,000 for the process of rewriting the
zoning ordinance. This is a natural progression following the 2040 Comprehensive
Plan adoption. The process will be designed in a similar fashion to the 2040 plan.
Housing Stimulus funding for assistance with street development is included at
$150,000 and restaurant recruitment is included at $150,000. Painting the exterior
of the Community House is budgeted for $40,000. Recreation park improvements
are budgeted at $100,000. Equipment purchases include mowers, cameras,
tasers, fire hose, extraction equipment, salt spreader racks, gators and everything
in between.
iv
Vehicle replacements include administrative vehicles for Public Safety and City
Hall, pickup trucks, a flusher truck and a rear loader. All of these vehicles are
being purchased and not financed. The old administrative City Hall van is being
handed down to the Community House for catering.
The North Green Street Transformation Project is once again included in the
General Fund CIP. The General Fund portion of this 2'/z-block streetscape project
is budgeted at $2,165,000. This project is currently in design. Grant funding of
$1,300,000 has been secured for this portion of the project. The utility funds
include budgeted funds for portions of this project and $300,000 in grant funding
for the sewer improvements.
The bulk of the $17 million CIP in the General Fund is for two projects. Those
projects are the purchase of a $2,500,000 ladder truck for Public Safety. This truck
purchase will be financed with installment purchase proceeds and the delivery time
estimated for the truck delivery is four years.
The most costly project proposed is a new Public Safety substation — a fire station
— for a cost of $10,000,000. The station will be a design/build project located on
Patrick Murphy Drive. This station will serve the large State properties located in
the Broughton District and properties located near 1-40 exits 104 and 105 including
UNC Health Blue Ridge property. The project will be funded with either borrowed
funds, State funds or a combination of both.
Public Safety will also be replacing mobile viper radios and portable viper radios in
partnership with Burke County in order to take advantage of a discount and an
existing credit with Motorola. Our purchase is budgeted at $148,000 and our credit
is $100,000.
The General Fund includes an appropriation of fund balance of $158,064 for
capital purchases. This appropriation is well within our fund balance policy and
maintains our 35% in available fund balance and then some.
Water Fund
Water usage continues to remain steady after reaching pre-COVID levels again.
We have included a less than 1 % growth in usage for fiscal year 2024/2025 in the
budget totaling $8,657,905. The budget includes a capital budget of $2,860,830.
An appropriation of $199,405 is required to balance the budget.
The proposed rate increase is an adjustment to volumetric charges of 2% to all
customers effective with the August 1, 2024 billing. Outside customers will
continue to pay double volume charges. The monthly increase to a home inside
the City using 5,000 gallons of water will be less than a $1.00 per month. Our
water rates remain some of the lowest in the State. The almost $200,000 in
appropriated retained earnings is higher than usual, making a review of our rates
necessary and responsible.
The need to review our rates is largely being driven by inflation and higher costs
of fuel, supplies, chemicals, keeping a qualified workforce and necessary
system improvements. Our infrastructure is aging and requires attention.
Regulations continue to increase and new requirements drive the need for large
capital investments.
The 2024/2025 budget includes $280,000 for a rate study and asset
management plan update. It has been over 10 years since we did this and an
update is much needed. The scope of this study will include helping us to
identify necessary investments to allow us to serve properties just outside the
City, but in our water service area. This is another step toward identifying
infrastructure investments essential to support housing development in the
community. Our rates need to be adjusted to support operations and
investment in our system.
The recommended CIP does not include funding for the sedimentation upgrade at
the water plant. After years of planning, we received State funding for this
upgrade, which is being accounted for in a multi -year capital projects fund and is
budget at $6,601,400. This project is critical to our water treatment process.
The 2024/2025 proposed plan includes $500,000 for line replacement/repair and
$200,000 in housing stimulus grants/loans. The CIP includes $217,830 for utility
work required in the bridge replacement project at Morganton Heights.
An addition to the CIP in 2024/2025 is $1,120,000 to upgrade and rehabilitate the
raw water pump house and the chemical tank feed system. These upgrades will
be funded with State funding already appropriated.
Wastewater Fund
The total proposed budget for Wastewater for fiscal year 2024/2025 is $8,120,624.
Just as trends in the water fund indicate, sewer usage is steady at pre-COVID
levels. Costs for supplies, fuel and chemicals continue to escalate in this fund, too.
An appropriation of $97,594 of retained earnings is included to balance the
recommended budget. Our rates need to be studied.
Rate increases in the sewer fund mirror the water fund and are 2% on volumetric
charges effective August 1, 2024. Residential rates for inside customers in a
household using 5,000 gallons will see an increase of less than $1 per month.
Major improvements at the sewer plant to remain in compliance with State and
Federal requirements and to operate efficiently continue. Debt service associated
with completed projections total $1.8 million annually, which represents 22% of
vi
costs budgeted for wastewater services.
The CIP for next year is $2,766,000. Line/manhole replacement is included at
$500,000 and Housing Stimulus funds at $200,000. Once again, improvements at
the wastewater treatment plant are included. These projects combined are
budgeted at $1,150,000.
The fiscal year 2024/2025 budget includes $300,000 for the rate study, asset
management plan and collection system masterplan. This study goes hand -in -
hand with the water study. It is necessary to plan for future investments and to
design and set rates appropriate for our operation.
The Silver Creek Pump Station upgrade project has been transferred to a multi-
year capital project fund and is budgeted at $6,772,200. We were fortunate to
receive State funding for this project.
The wastewater treatment business continues to be a very expensive business.
Escalating costs of chemicals and supplies affect this operation. Keeping qualified
staff is also a challenge. Providing sewer to undeveloped properties is expensive,
but key to housing development.
Electric Fund
The proposed Electric Fund budget for 2024/2025 totals $28,984,000. The capital
for next year is $5,525,500 and no appropriated retained earnings are necessary to
balance the budget. The slight growth of less than 1 % in electric usage continues.
Electric rates are proposed to remain unchanged for next year for Morganton
customers.
For the last several years, Morganton electric customers have experienced rate
decreases. Reductions in wholesale rates have been passed to customers at a
time when transformer costs, personnel costs and general supply costs have
increased. The decision to decrease rates to support business customers and
ease financial pressures on residential customers was deliberate and required the
use of savings balances in our electric fund. The multiple years' rate reductions
have also brought our rates in line with our competitors.
The NCMPA1 board voted to pass on wholesale rate savings to the 19-member
cities for fiscal year 2024/2025. Rate savings will be in the first demand block.
The City expects a decrease in wholesale costs of approximately 8% to 8Y2%.
Currently, City staff is working with consultants and ElectriCities on a Cost of
Services Study to inform decisions on rate setting. This should be complete Fall
2024. The results will determine how to pass rate decreases to our customers
while supporting operations and future investments in our system. The 2024/2025
budget includes $2,370,000 for future rate decreases and system investment.
vii
The City is also receiving a credit to wholesale costs of $5,656,000. This is a one-
time credit and the budget for 2024/2025 recommends using it to fund the CIP
budget of $5,525,500. This ensures the one-time money supports assets in our
system not recurring operating expenses.
These capital investments include replacing a transformer at Delivery 4 Substation
for $1,500,000. It also includes $495,000 to replace outdated service at one of our
industrial customers' sites and $265,000 to replace old direct buried service at an
apartment complex. Upgrades to existing customers and infrastructure to serve
new customers, both residential and business, are included at $640,000. The
electric portion of the North Green Street Transformation Project is $955,000. The
budget includes over $600,000 to upgrade lighting and generators at parks,
parking lots, streets and public facilities. The annual tree trimming contract is
funded at $500,000 with these dollars. The opportunity to fund these projects with
this credit and not increase our customers' rates is a much appreciated benefit.
Wholesale power costs predicted for next year total $18,810,000. Revenues from
sale of power are $27,750,000 and include a 1'/2% growth.
CoMPAS Fund
The proposed budget for CoMPAS for fiscal year 2024/2025 is $6,225,764. An
appropriation of retained earnings of $65,115 is required to balance the budget.
This appropriation follows a projected surplus at the end of the current fiscal year
of $68,000. High-speed internet continues to be the service most in demand.
Internet revenue is projected at $3,605,000 next year. Access to high-speed
broadband in our community is invaluable and an economic development tool that
provides the City opportunities to support new businesses. Commercial/business
internet customers and phone customers continue to choose CoMPAS.
While our commercial internet/phone business grows and our residential subscribers
remain steady, our cable TV subscribers are decreasing. The decrease is still slower
than anticipated. We continue on our path to be able to convert to a streaming
service. Programming remains our largest cost projected at $2,000,000 next year.
A significant portion of that is due to the recent required three-year negotiations with
our local/Charlotte channel providers. The increase of those costs which is detailed
on our monthly bills as "Broadcast Surcharge" is $10.00 per month per subscriber.
The total Broadcast Surcharge will be $25.00 as of August 1, 2024. An additional $2
increase per month for other programming is necessary. The total increase for cable
TV will be $12.00 per month effective August 1, 2024. We are projecting to lose 200
video customers next year.
The proposed CIP is $680,000 and includes $250,000 to continue to deploy headend
at several nodes for future conversion possibilities of the system to a streaming
viii
service and $100,000 for set top boxes capable of streaming. Future investments for
the fiber to the premise upgrade will more than likely need to be financed. Private
companies are being funded with Federal and State tax dollars, while CoMPAS does
not qualify. These companies are currently overbuilding in our city with taxpayer
funds. This means that what separates our service from these is our ability to provide
customer service — real people, who are local who will spend the time necessary to
make you a satisfied customer.
Cemetery Trust Fund
The Cemetery Trust Fund is designed to accumulate funds for maintaining the City
owned cemetery and to provide perpetual care for that property. The budget for
2024/2025 is $125,500. It includes $100,000 from the fund to complete paving at
Forest Hill.
Intergovernmental Service Fund
The Intergovernmental Service Fund includes the Warehouse, Garage, and
Information Resources Management Services (IRMS). These departments provide
service to other funds. The total budget for these services for 2024/2025 is
$4,539,152, which is $111,206 more than last year. Increased costs of supplies and
fuel continue to affect this fund. In particular, the cost of transformers and the need to
increase inventories due to long delivery times, has increased exponentially in this
fund.
The IRMS budget is $1,803,592. IRMS projects continue to span multi -budget
years. Contracted services, which include support costs for hardware and
software, are $889,868 or 50% of the IRMS budget. Technology is intertwined and
critical in most aspects of our operations. Service delivery is dependent on
technology. Cybersecurity is growing as a necessary component of our business.
CIP is budgeted at $153,000 and includes routine purchases and connectivity
costs.
The warehouse budget is $1,185,000. This is reflective of the increased costs of
all materials. Largest increases are in Electric with transformer purchases for
inventory of $500,000. Inventory costs are up as delivery times are extremely
extended and departments are struggling to get necessary items regularly.
Purchases of inventories is $680,000. A facilities masterplan is included at
$50,000. A masterplan for our space will allow us to consider future space needs
and to better organize space for all departments and take advantage of co -
location of equipment and vehicles and consider needed coverings for both.
The Equipment Services budget is $885,000 with fuel costs at $525,000 for the
year. The continued rise in fuel costs will be monitored and may lead to budget
amendments mid -year. No capital is proposed for the garage next year.

American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)
The City has been awarded $4,835,619 in direct funds as a result of the American
Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). We have earned $6,475 in interest on our ARPA funding
this allowing us to invest a total of $538,166 in ARPA projects. In deciding how to
best spend these funds, the Council and Staff set three priorities. These are to
leverage other funds if possible, to invest in long term assets and to select projects
that provide broad benefit in the community. This budget proposal includes three
proposed capital improvements that meet these categories.
The proposed budget includes using $275,000 to resurface the remainder of
Freedom Park road and parking. Freedom Park basketball courts will be resurfaced
as well. Another $90,000 is budgeted to pave the area around the wash station. This
paving would be the completion of the Wash Station Project.
As a reminder, ARPA funding has been committed/used for resurfacing City
streets, wastewater plant sludge system upgrades, the Mountain View gym
restoration, the wash station facility at the garage and the Bost Road sewer line
extension and playground equipment at three parks.
Once these last contracts are approved, which we anticipate to be June 2024,
we will have met the December 2024 deadline and are well on track to complete
spending by December 2026. Our total ARPA spending will total $4,842,094.
Personnel Issues
The proposed budget for 2024/2025 includes recommendations for salary
increases and several position changes. The salary increases include a 4% COLA
for all full-time employees effective July 2024 and a 1 % merit increase for full-time
eligible employees effective as of March 2025. The total costs for the increases
including benefits is $820,856 citywide. Hiring for vacancies is still challenging
making retaining a qualified workforce a necessity. Our employees continue to
step up and fill in gaps for hard to fill positions.
For the last six years we have completed our mini -review of market comparisons
for a portion of our positions which has kept our salary ranges relatively aligned
with the market for new hires. This year, we used our pay and classification
consultant to compare all of our salary ranges and job classifications. Retention is
our top priority. Staff is also aware that several of our municipal neighbors are
completing and implementing pay studies, thus making market competition tighter.
The market comparison resulted in all positions moving one pay range, about 1/3
moving two ranges and a hand full moving 3 pay ranges. This budget proposal
includes pay increases of/z% per pay grade shift and pay for service time for all
employees with two or more years with the City. The time in service increases
help to address pay compression issues. The total costs for market comparison
►A
and pay compression issues is $629,000 citywide. These increases are effective
July 2024.
Several new positions are included in the budget. These positions address the
changes in how we do business in a post-COVID environment. They include a
customer service representative, a Facilities Maintenance Supervisor, a part-time
meter reader and a GIS Analyst. Total costs, including benefits, for these position
changes are included in the numbers already presented.
Employees continue to contribute at $50.00 per month toward health insurance
and 6% of salary for retirement benefits. The total cost budgeted for insurance
benefits next year for active employees is $2,684,087. The increased cost of
retirement for sworn and non -sworn personnel is included at $149,748. Law
enforcement separation allowance is budgeted at $256,599.
The 2024/2025 budget includes funding for continued investment in the people
who provide top quality services to Morganton citizens and visitors every day.
There is no more important investment than the one we make in our employees —
without them our services do not happen. Our ability to attract and retain qualified
employees has never been more important. Our pay and our work culture are
critical in us being an employer of choice in our region. We must be competitive
with our neighbors and show our employees how important they are in achieving
our vision for Morganton.
Summary
"If you focus on what you left behind, you will never be able to see what lies
ahead" In Disney's Ratatouille (2007), deceased Chef Gusteau gives this advice
to Remy, a blue rat who is afraid he has lost everything. In the 2024/2025 budget,
we are looking to the future. The path forward laid out in this budget continues to
support investments in making Morganton a community of choice.
The 2024/2025 budget includes investments in utility infrastructure, funding for
assistance to housing developers, park improvements, funds for a new fire station
and funding to invest in our people. While yesterday's decisions laid the
foundation, today's decisions build the walls. Just like Remy, we must look to the
future if we want to create a sustainable and vibrant Morganton.
I want to thank the City Council for governing with a commitment to the
community's future. Supporting efforts to follow our master plans and invest in our
assets while keeping a commitment to affordable, high quality services provides a
path to success.
The dedicated City employees continue to be the daily champions who deliver to
our citizens what they deserve. The department directors work together to realize
the vision of a Morganton of choice. Jessie Parris, Finance Director, and Kate
Tallent, Assistant Finance Director, continue to put the budget puzzle pieces
Xi
together in a way that allows us to invest in our future while maintaining a healthy
financial outlook. None of this works without this team. For the dedication and
belief in this community, I thank each and every one of them.
We continue to be challenged by pressures of inflation, extended delivery times
and competition for a qualified work force. The way we will mitigate these negative
forces is by focusing on what lies ahead. Continuing to plan, take action and follow
the course will deliver the results for which we are aiming. Keeping our community
engaged and informed about our vision and the future is key.
Just like Remy, we must focus on tomorrow. Charting a brave course toward the
future and not regretting what is in the past will ensure that we are on our way to
success. Investing in that future is not just a choice — it is the right choice.
Respectfully Submitted,
JO

Response to service calls (Sanitary sewer overflows)
Between hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday calls for service are received
through the Water Resources Department utility service number 828-438-5276. Once a call for
sanitary sewer overflow is received by the utility office, the superintendent, or supervisor is
notified. Then a crew member is called to respond immediately either going himself or sending
a truck to investigate the situation. Once the nature of the problem has been identified they
will either fix the problem or get the necessary assistance to address the problem. If the
problem is the customers', crews will assist while on site by knocking on the door, phone call to
customer from the office, or door hanger, to notified them of the issue so the customer can
obtain a plumber. If the problem is a lift station malfunction then the wastewater treatment
plant maintenance crews will be called. Request for services after hours, weekends, and
holidays are received through the same number and message to the on call standby crew, to
address the complaint typical within a (30) minute response time.
Supervisors Responsibilities and Rules for Follow:
Standby crews are to reach supervisors to report spill. Supervisors will report overflows
from any line or station or the bypass or any component thereof, by filling out "Sewage
Spill Evaluation Form" and faxing or email it to regional office. If spill gets to the "Waters
of the State" they are to call it in to Asheville Regional Office or Raleigh number listed at
the bottom of the form within 24 hours of knowledge of the spill.
2. Spill response factors that the State require to be included.
A. Contact list of on -call cleanup.
B. Rapid on -site assessment of spill.
C. Response / mobilization after initial assessment.
D. Proper NCDEQ notification.
3. Rules for reporting.
A. All spills regardless of volume that reach surface waters must be reported.
B. Spills of 1,000 gallons or less that do not reach surface waters and are contained onsite
do not have to be reported. However, records must be maintained documenting spill
and action taken to address the spill.
C. Spill greater than 1,000 gallons, regardless of weather or not they reach surface water
must be reported.
Clean up and Pumping Procedures
1. Remove all visible debris.
2. Remove visibly ponded water.
3. Disinfect the area (no chemical addition to surface waters).
4. Place warning tap around the site for at least 24 hours.
5. If soil is disturbed in close proximity to stream banks, the area should be reseeded
immediately to prevent erosion.
6. Where appropriated building a dam or pit for storage of wastewater prior to pumping to
next manhole. The dam needs to be constructed near a manhole or at a location which
is accessible to the vacuum equipment (truck and or trailer). Build the dam with dirt that
is capable of handling creek and hydrant water without dam failure; station two pumps
at the dam that are capable of handling creek flow. Use pump for backup. Have backhoe
at site with extra material at all times during pumping operations. Pump effluent from
dam to the manhole. Be sure to remove all evidence of spill (solids, plastics, etc.) from
pit. Once repair is made complete number 1,3,4, and 5 to address the dam areas.

Contingency Plan For
Sewer
Pump Stations
In the event of a sewer pump station pump failure, the following contingency plan will be
put into action.
When arriving to the pump station and pump failure is discovered, the following procedures
should be followed:
1. Check the level of the wet well.
2. If High wet well notify Asbury's Septic to pump down wet well.
3. Check to see which pump has failed and why.
4. If only one pump has failed and back up pump can maintain peak flow, pull and
inspect bad pump.
S. After failing inspection call and inform Morganton Electric of what type of pump and
to let them know we have a pump to drop off to be repaired.
6. In case of both pumps failing and station has a bypass set into place proceed to set
up bypass pump.
7. If bypass is not available then contact Asbury's Septic to pump and maintain flow.
8. If replacement pump is available reinstall pump
9. If there is no replacement pump notify Morganton Electric for emergency repair.
