Board hears update on pump redesign, generator RFPs and permit work for Chimney Hill water system
Summary
The water commission reported that pump design work (Tank 3 to Tank 2), a supply/demand chart to support state allocations, generator RFPs for tank and well sites, and B tank design proposals are underway; pipe bursting is paused pending state comments.
Steve Boyce presented the water commission update: James Walker and staff have drafted a design for new transfer pumps from Tank 3 to Tank 2 and prepared an updated supply/demand chart that the minutes say "shows the impact of upgrades, which will allow the state to release more water allocations." The board is collecting electrical-work quotes and James Walker is assembling requests for proposals for site generators and B tank design and construction.
Board members noted pipe bursting work is on hold pending state review of permit comments. The board discussed next steps for permitting and budgeting; earlier in the meeting members signaled intent to direct remaining year-end funds toward water projects and the capital reserve plan supports projected 2025/2026 projects.
