Water Treatment Plant Update:
The water treatment plant update is currently 99 9/10%
Complete. A few minor problems were
brought up during the final walk through.
They should be worked out by the end of next week.
Our
goal was to double the capacity of the plant.
The first bid cost came in too high, during the re-scope/re-bid we had
to take a few items out. 1 river pump
($50,000) and a chlorine contact chamber ($100,000). This created a capacity of 1.5 MGD. Once these components are added to the system
we will have a daily capacity of 2 MGD.
We won’t need them for about 5-10 years.
The 2 MGD plant was the recommendation for a 20 year window.
The
difference between the average/peak useage is the irrigation customers. The
school is the main irrigation customer.
They have worked with us to curtail their useage when we haven’t been
able to meet the demand.
q
UPDATE ~ Street Improvement Assessment
q
Leak Detection:
This
needs to be done periodically. We found
some more leaks on the line that runs on 3rd Avenue behind Cascade
Utilities Corporate Offices. The old OD
Steel lines need to be replaced. We have
$10,000 in the budget. Was that used for
anything? Can it be used or rolled over
for a project next year?
The
Mill Line is an important line to replace.
It completes the circle and it would allow us to find any unknown taps,
etc.
q
Mapping
Street, water, sewer, storm drain, park.
$500
for the ARC-VIEW software that allows us to view the GIS maps done by Clackamas
County. GIS allows for layering so that
you can see all of the infrastructure on one map, or you can look at one system
at a time.
We
need an intergovernmental agreement with Clackamas County to establish fees,
etc.
