Operations and Maintenance: • The monthly MPCA Discharge Monitoring Report was completed and submitted as required. • April 8b, I attended a wastewater class in Taylors Falls, sponsored by MRWA • April 9h, Lance and I flushed several problem -area sewer lines with tanker • Throughout the month of April, we've been collecting wastewater samples from our secondary pond to closely monitor our fecal counts. They've been quite high, but with the warmer weather now, they should get better. We are irrigating as often as we can to get our pond levels down so we can repair the other air lines, as well as ensure that we will have enough storage for the upcoming winter. • April 23`a, Kent with NorthStar Pump pulled one of our irrigation pumps to take it in for repairs. • April 25`", Greg and Mike jetted over by the Cole Bldg. The manhole in front of Thurlow's was backing up when Greg did the daily checks. No problems occurred. • April 28th, MN Power located the broken electrical wire to our west irrigator. Kurt and Lance dug down to it with the backhoe and had Karl Moon repair it. We just need to get the water - pressure valve replaced and then it will be ready to operate. Steve with Northern Irrigation will be coming soon to take care of it.
