Summary
The board approved part 2 of a previously authorized task order to draft a sewer‑use ordinance and enforcement response plan as part of a pretreatment program required under IDEM rules; the estimated cost was $18,000.
The Greene County Regional Service District Board voted to proceed with part 2 of a professional services task order to develop the district’s sewer‑use ordinance and an enforcement response plan required for a pretreatment program.
Staff told the board that, under the MPDS permit timeline, the district has 120 days from the permit date to update the sewer‑use ordinance and enforcement response plan and submit the pretreatment program components to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM). The board had previously approved initial filings and support; the current motion approved the next step focused on the ordinance and enforcement plan at an estimated cost of $18,000.
A staff member explained that part 3 of the task order — the broader pretreatment program development — was estimated at $15,000 and that some tasks performed by district staff or the operator could reduce outside costs.
The board moved, seconded and approved the motion to authorize part 2. The transcript records a voice vote in favor; no roll‑call tally appears in the record.
Ending: Staff will proceed with drafting the sewer‑use ordinance and enforcement response plan and return with materials for board review.
