Bicknell public works reports water-tank health, new well permit work and meter installations
Summary
Public works said Mountain Springs flow remains steady, last month's water sample was satisfactory, two new water meters were installed, and staff are preparing an operating permit for a new well with engineer John Chartier; tanks may be chlorinated ahead of the next sample.
Public works reported that the Mountain Springs source is yielding roughly 27 gallons per minute, town water tanks are full, and the most recent monthly water sample met standards. The operator said he plans to chlorinate the tanks before the next sample after a recent event that stirred bottom material in the tank.
Staff installed two new water meters and reported two new grave digs were scheduled; public works staff said they are preparing the operating-permit paperwork for a recently drilled well. The meeting noted that John Chartier (an engineer) is coordinating the operating-permit process and that the town will review permit paperwork and coordinate with the engineer and state contacts when the permit is ready.
No operating-permit approval or final signatures were recorded at the meeting; staff said they expected to receive the permit paperwork and then meet with relevant parties for next steps.
