Summary
Delta 3 presented revised plans and an energy audit showing the village plant in the "worst quadrant" for energy efficiency. The board voted to proceed with a facility plan focused on motor control center upgrades, UV disinfection, and blower upgrades, with estimated costs of $500,000–$750,000 and possible grant funding.
Delta 3 representative Jordan Fure presented revised wastewater treatment facility plans and an energy audit that placed the village plant in the "worst quadrant" for energy efficiency. Jordan said potential annual savings of about $4,000 could be achieved by installing new blowers with variable frequency drives.
After discussion of priorities, parking limits at the site, and funding constraints, Jordan recommended focusing on three priority items: motor control center upgrades, replacing chlorination with a UV disinfection system, and blower upgrades. The board voted unanimously to proceed with a facility plan for those three priorities; Jordan estimated the package could cost roughly $500,000–$750,000 with potential grant funding available for parts of the project.
