Minor Deficiency Noted
A manhole just outside the fence frequently experiences a buildup of solids because the flow slows down. Vern Minner is trying to get the line & manhole reconfigured to solve the problem. He's also looking into adding enzymes or bacteria to try to prevent problems until a permanent solution is found.

The old comminutor is still working but is over eight years old and is slowing down. A new one is being delivered Friday. All four aerators were in operation. There are two backup aerators on site. Except for a short section on the east end of the second cell the inside of all the dikes are now riprapped
