Sewer operator reports plant ran at 23% capacity in November, lift-station repairs planned
Summary
Sewer operator Josh Taylor told the council the treatment plant ran at 23% capacity in November with an average flow of 0.47 MGD and 5.25 inches of rain; generators at multiple lift stations are slated for repair and Elite Pumps completed electrical work at lift station 5.
Josh Taylor, the city's sewer operator, reported to the council that "the plant operated at 23 percent capacity for the month of November and flowed an average of 0.47 MGD," and that rainfall for the month totaled 5.25 inches. He summarized operational status and capacity figures and noted that a pump had been delivered and a contractor plans to repair the generator at lift station 4 this week, with generator work at lift stations 1 and 2 to follow.
Taylor also reported work at lift station 5: Elite Pumps ran new electrical to the control panel and SHECO set a new pole and meter. The update was presented during the operations report; the minutes record the technical steps but do not show a separate council motion tied to project funding or a construction timeline beyond the contractor's near-term plan to repair the generator.
