Hillsborough OKs $8,700 sludge study of wastewater lagoons
Summary
The Commission authorized RCS Environmental to sample the three wastewater lagoons and report sample locations and sludge depths at a cost of $8,700; the motion carried unanimously after a motion by Commissioner Peter Mellen and a second by Commissioner Dana Clow.
The Town of Hillsborough Water & Sewer Commission voted on July 23 to authorize a sludge study of the three lagoons at the municipal wastewater facility. The proposal from RCS Environmental would map sample locations and measure sludge depth for a total cost of $8,700.
Commissioner Peter Mellen moved to authorize the work; Commissioner Dana Clow seconded the motion and the board voted unanimously in favor. The minutes record the authorization but do not specify a start date or a deadline for the report.
The study will provide a technical baseline that can inform future maintenance or dredging decisions for the lagoons. The minutes do not record funding source details beyond the authorization; the Commission did not attach a timeline or reporting requirement to the motion in the recorded minutes.
