County reports continuing electrical problems at well #3 and Fire Tower Road tank
Summary
County Manager Thomas Weaver told commissioners the Fire Tower Road tank and well #3 have recurrent failures that staff suspect are electrical; surge suppression equipment was ordered and temporary HVAC measures for controls are being considered.
County Manager Thomas Weaver reported repeated outages at the Fire Tower Road tank and continuing problems with well #3, telling the commission staff "feel like it is an electrical issue, because there aren't any issues anywhere else" and that surge suppression equipment is on order. He said a company called Hammock Wells responded quickly to the recent outage and Burgamy Electric has done much of the repair work.
Weaver said if the problem is not electrical the county will consider HVAC solutions for control components and possibly hire an electrical contractor; staff are also looking at ground settling near the site. Work session minutes later noted the surge suppression system was being produced in Texas and expected within roughly 20 days.
