| 12-13-11 Cowan STP had numerous issues. Most testing was not being performed by standard methods. Little documentation was in place. The chief operator needed training on most parameter testing. The influent sampler was not working the day of the 12-13-11 inspection which is the second time out of the last three site inspections. Two influent pumps were not working. The post aerator was not working. The skirts on both clariifers were rusted and in poor shape which was noted on a previous site inspection with no apparent follow up by STP. Lab equipment was very dated in most cases. Housekeeping was lacking. DAL |
