Inspection Summary:
Upon the inspection for the Town of Newton Grove Collection System,which consists of 5 duplex stations,all records
appeared to be in order for the operation of the stations,however,log books were damaged from the storm and flooding.The
system has had greater than 10%of the lines jetted and all the station wet wells had grease pumped and removed.The
main station at park side and the pump station at trailer park have had new control centers installed.All stations have had
work performed in the last 2 years with one pump being replaced at each of the system's 5 duplex stations.The station at
parkside has back up power on site and is tested once per week through a service contract.Stand by power for the other
stations is supplied by a portable generator PTO driven,which is tested once per year with the tractor started once per
week.The town does service more than 100 low pressure systems,which may need to be turned over to the home owners.
Pump stations need to have new signs with identification and phone numbers.
Mr.Holland is commended for his initiative and proactive approach for the documentation and on site monitoring. I appreciate
the time and professional courtesy that he extended during the inspection.
