July 5th, disinfection by product samples were collected in Ebensburg's distribution system. The results were found to be under half the maximum contaminant level at both sample sites for HAA5's. When calculated, these low results have allowed Ebensburg's system to achieve compliance and avoid issuing a public notice this On July 7th, Inframark began operating the Ogden tank chlorine booster station. Chlorine feed equipment was set up and a dosing plan was created. Water quality analysis and operations of the chemical feed equipment are conducted daily. On July 12th, Inframark hosted a tour for Saint Francis University's water reclamation academy. Professor Mr. Tasker and his students were very grateful for the opportunity to tour Ebensburg's treatment facility. lwould also like to thank the Authority for allowing Inframark to host events like this at Ebensburg's facility. Over the past several months Inframark has been checking in on the WWTP pumping stations to assist with additional monitoring at these facilities. On July 13th we discovered the Emerald estates pumping station was in alarm and failing to pump. We also discovered the dialer for call outs at that location was turned off. Working together with borough staff, we were able to fix the motor pumping issues and restore the dialer On.
