Operations and Maintenance: • The MN Department of Health Monthly Fluoridation Report was completed and submitted. • Turned water on at 3844 West Grove St. on April 3`d to discover their water service was frozen. They had Cal's Welding take care of it. • Larice helped me replace a valve on the filter sample tap at the water plant on April 7`t'. • April 13th through April 17th, we had a student intern, Mike Schwanke, from St. Cloud Technical College. He learned how to take samples from our monitoring wells, how to collect soil samples from our irrigation field, we pulled a pump from our main lift station and removed accumulated debris, turned water on at a couple different places and jetted several of our low -flow, problem areas. I believe he enjoyed his time here and learned a lot. • April 14th, Mike Roers with MRWA, checked all of our fire hydrants for possible leaks, all were fine. • April 21 ", completed 21 delinquent water /sewer bill notices and delivered. • April 23`d, while Dingman Brothers were digging to locate TruGreen's crushed sewer line, they uncovered a 1 -1 /2" water line with a hole in the bottom of it. Water was filling the hole quickly so we had to shut valves to make it stop long enough for them to find the corporation stop, and turn it off there. Then, the water was turned back on to the rest of the industrial park area and they completed the repairs. The water line was the service line to Wolkenhauer's Machine Shop.
