Plainfield utility reports mildew damage to water tower bowl; staff recognized for certifications
Summary
Staff reported the Quaker Boulevard water tower cleaning revealed mildew that harmed paint beneath the bowl and that two staff members passed professional certifications (DSL and WT3). Town will assess restoration needs.
Utility Director Jeremy Hunsicker reported that a recent cleaning of the Quaker Boulevard water tower revealed mildew underneath the bowl that has eaten into the paint and will require restoration work.
"Underneath the bowl, there was some mildew, kind of what spurred it. So that had eaten into the paint, so there needs to be some restoration efforts there," Hunsicker said. He also recognized staff: "you have Nick Mitchell here tonight. He passed his DSL last month," followed by applause, and he said Jordan Schultz passed his WT3 in water treatment.
Hunsicker said staff will look into restoration options for the paint and coating and continue routine operations while pursuing any repairs required to protect the tower's integrity.
