Town given 60 days to update Sewer Use Ordinance after NHDES notice; rates to be discussed
Summary
Town Manager Jessica Cyr said New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services issued a notice requiring an update to the Sewer Use Ordinance within 60 days, triggered by a permit for a local business; the Select Board scheduled water/sewer rates for an upcoming work session.
On June 1 the Select Board was told that the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES) has issued a notice requiring the town to update its Sewer Use Ordinance within 60 days.
Town Manager Jessica Cyr said the notice was triggered by a permit issued for a local business and related discussions about the temperature of discharge. The board did not take a formal vote but directed that sewer and water rates be an agenda item at the next work session, as noted by Kathy-Jean Lavoie.
No text of the required ordinance changes was included in the meeting minutes; staff were asked to prioritize reviewing and updating the ordinance within the timeframe announced by NHDES.
