Mannsville water operator reports coin mechanism failure, 600,000 gallons used via Ellisburg interconnect
Summary
Water Operator Norm Jones told trustees the village replaced a broken coin mechanism with a spare, the chlorine pump is awaiting vendor scheduling, and the Ellisburg interconnect supplied about 600,000 gallons over three weeks.
Norm Jones, the village's water operator, updated the board on multiple operations and maintenance items at the Sept. 9 meeting. He reported the coin mechanism "finally broke and was unable to be repaired," so he installed a new, previously purchased mechanism as a replacement and recommended refurbishing the broken unit as a backup. Jones said the chlorine pump remains pending scheduling with P&T and Smartech.
Jones told trustees the Ellisburg interconnect was open for about three weeks and the village used roughly 600,000 gallons during that period. He also reported continued meter work (about 50 cell meters remain to install), a failed garage motion sensor that Ted will replace, and that he will order three long-sleeve shirts per DPW worker at $20 each.
