Michiana outlines water work: EPA project plan, hydrant flushing and November pump swap
Summary
Council members said a project plan for EPA review is underway, crews will flush hydrants for several weeks, and a new pump—already on site—will be installed in November to support the village irrigation and water system.
Councilmember Mike Mumper updated the council on water system activity, including submission of monthly reports to EGLE and daily water testing. Merritt is preparing a project plan that must be submitted to the EPA for approval before the village proceeds to the bidding stage for the work.
Mumper said crews will flush hydrants over the coming weeks. A new pump is onsite and staff plan to install it in November, timing the swap for lower resident water use so the system can run on a single pump during the changeover. Mumper said he expects to announce an additional water‑system meeting in November to share more details.
The minutes do not specify contract or bid timelines, nor do they provide cost estimates. The record lists routine compliance activity with EGLE and planned steps for EPA review and bidding but does not include the EPA submission date or bid solicitation schedule.
