Meter project advances; managers cite remaining $468,000 and brown-water mitigation plan
Summary
Staff told the board that most residential meters are installed, $468,000 remains to complete the countywide meter project, and crews will begin directional flushing to address recurring brown-water incidents as part of short-term mitigation.
Staff gave a detailed operations update on the countywide meter program and water-quality work.
The operations manager (Speaker 2) said residential meter replacement is essentially complete and that commercial meters are nearly finished; he said the project shows about $468,000 remaining to be spent on parts and plant meters. He also reported the Brown Water Project was entered into the portal and described a near-term mitigation plan of directional flushing and increased plant treatment to reduce brown-water occurrences.
The board discussed bids and schedules: Turkey tank rehab and a 40 East project are out to bid with openings in June, and telemetry and pump work are close to final closeout pending engineering stamps. Staff said FEMA has reopened reimbursement programs for flood repairs and that disaster-relief and CAT funds are being used to pay outstanding invoices and rentals as appropriate.
