Operations

Easement from Karen Dickinson: We still have not received a signed easement back from Karen. Bonnie is in contact and hopefully will have it next week and will record once she receives from Karen.

Meters in Whispering Pines: There are now 28 meters that aren’t reading. Charlie will determine if the 18 replacement heads received are compatible with the meters, as the meters installed in Whispering Pines are multi-jet vs. positive displacement installed during the Phase 2 as each type require different radio reads. Once the snow has melted, he will then start with one meter that isn’t getting a read to determine if meter is actually working or if the meter has failed too. If the meter is functioning, he will replace the meter read head and repeat will all meters we aren’t getting reads from. He anticipates it will take a few weeks to verify/replace all. In the meantime, Elaine will continue to read the meters monthly. She will order replacement reads heads for those that have 2 consecutive months without a read.

Main Meter Replacement: Charlie reported that Master Meter and FD Fowler were up and inspected the source meter at the Homestead well. They and determined that it was not defective and therefore not covered under warranty. It wasn’t operational because of malfunction; it was because of dirt clogging it. Cleaning it didn’t seem to fix it, so a new meter will be needed soon. We are not using that well currently, but DOH does require functioning meters on all sources. He will continue to see if we can get it replaced via the warranty.

Repeater Tower Status and Upgrade – Charlie discovered an issue with the LW Reservoir not filling, Charlie thought it was the PRV valve and adjusted settings but that didn’t seem to resolve the issue. Neither did replacing the repeater batteries. After discussion with RH2, he inspected the control panel in the combined pump station and discovered a breaker was off. All is functioning fine now. He also become aware of some work/maintenance needed in the PRV chamber and will handle in the near future.
