This number is higher than usual due to Nanty Glo and Jackson township purchasing more water through the month of September. Increased flows through the Ogden tank site provided a great opportunity to gather informational data on the impacts water turn over has on disinfection by-product formation. Inframark collected samples thet first week of September that showcased disinfection by-product formation was reduced to half the maximum contaminant level at SCADA battery backup components have been repaired and tested to prevent the loss Staff has closed the upper reservoir bypass line to supplement the downstream flow requirement of 270,000 gallon per day. Recent weather conditions have supplied On September 6th Inframark notified the publics work director (Josh) of a chemical spill at the Ogden tank pump station. When Inframark staff arrived to collect month samples at Ogden, a strong chlorine odor was present. Sodium hypochlorite appeared to be on the walls and floor.

We send about 10 pages of data that have been collected by our operators and SCADA system. These reports consist of over 20,000 points of data that are compiled into a report and sent to the state every month called the "Monthly Operating Report" (MOR). This report is a representation of how well the plant is operating during the prior month.

Of the nine samples zero were found to be total coliform positive. Every month we are also required to monitor chlorine levels in the distribution system. A minimum of one sample per week is required and the sample must be equal to or greater than 0.20mg/L free chlorine. Four samples were collected in September and alli four samples were at or above Second quarter filter evaluation was completed on filter #1.
