Inspection Date: 05/21/2019 Inspection Type: Collection System Inspect Non Sampling Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
Records were available upon request and well organized. Right of ways observed during inspection appeared to be
maintained and accessible. Line cleaning appeared to meet permit requirements. System appeared to be in good overall
working order. Five of 12 pump stations were visited during the inspection. Pump stations appeared to be well maintained
with only minor grease build up. There had been a partial power failure at pump station #12 and it was being powered by the
generator during inspection. A replacement pump for pump station #8 should be kept on hand in case of failure of the single
pump in the station. CIP should be updated to reflect current future project plans. Continue to update map to ensure that all
required items are included.
