Motion carried unanimously. ENGINEER'S REPORT Plantation Park - The flows are at 64 edu's, mostly because of rain. SR19 Project - The grant application for the pumpstation itself, will be submitted to the Small Water and Sewer Project Program through Commonwealth Financing Authority. The planning modules were submitted in March. They are in line for being reviewed. We are going to be submitting two stream crossings, an ENS Control Plan, and a Highway Occupancy Permit. Motions are needed under NB to do this. In round numbers, we are reserving 20,000 gal/day for this. The plant historically has been running 85,000 gal/day for average daily flows. Project Cake wants about 60,000 gal/day. That will put us over 150,000 gal/day permit limit. Dan is working on setting up a meeting with the prospective owners and the county to discuss what will need done to the plant. Dan believes they are overestimating their flow by a lot, but they will discuss this. OPERATOR'S REPORT The plant operated at 114,000/gal/day for the month of February 2025. Met all permit requirements. It was a wet month. Poured a drying bed. There was (1) grinder pump call out and (1) repair. One was on Dogwood Drive and one was a stator (Dan wasn't sure of the location). Countryside Convalescent Home is experiencing a lot of grease and the conditions are terrible. They are considering trying a wet well wizard. OLD BUSINESS Verizon Wireless at the Plant Agreement = 4G unlimited broadband for $39.99/month plus fees. Approval was already given at the January/2025 meeting. A signature is needed to get the service ordered.
