Operations and Maintenance: • The monthly MPCA Discharge Monitoring Report was completed and submitted as required. • Jan. 4` ", tenants at 3851 West Grove Street asked to run their water continuously to avoid any sewer freeze -ups. They had multiple problems last year due to the terrible cold and a shallow sewer line. All water usage is recorded. • Jan. 6`", Brad with Northern Water Works trouble - shooted our grinder pump at the WTP. Unfortunately, the pump has been damaged due to improper voltage going to the pump. He recommended having a booster panel installed to avoid future problems. He gave us a loaner pump and took ours to their shop to be serviced. Karl Moon with Moonlighting Electric came out the same day and reviewed our situation to put together a quote for the installation of a booster panel. • Jan. 6'h, registered for a CSWEA /MWOA (Central States Water Environment Association/MN Wastewater Operators Association) Innovative Wastewater Conference held on Feb. 23rd in St. Cloud. • Jan. 21 s`, two of Karl Moon's employees installed the booster panel at the WTP. Karl's waiting for a couple other parts, and when they arrive he will be able to finish the connection to the grinder -pump panel and I will be able to use my restroom again!
