Operations
Mary discussed the operations. A significant leak in one of the water lines from the wells was located and repaired. Mary is preparing to work with Steve Orloff to diagnose and repair the low pressure at 9546 BMD. A leak was repaired in a customer service line that caused high usage.
Water production was slightly higher than last month, but stabilized after the leak repairs. The well levels have dropped somewhat.
A discussion was held and resident’s questions were answered followed regarding water levels in the wells, our plans to augment the supply, and the timeline for doing this. Based on our current usage, Joe believes that the supply will last an additional 10 to 15 years, but this is not guaranteed. An evolving long-term plan to supplement our recharge was described. Alternatives, such as purchasing water, were discussed.
Maintenance
Dave discussed the maintenance.
Other Discussions
The board thanked Bill Bryant for his feedback and requested that he send any additional
questions via email.
Meters were discussed. It has been difficult to get information from Neptune regarding the best path forward with the choice of meter types. The engineer with metering experience that Joe had found is no longer available. Joe moved that we should order additional meters up to $4500.00 since we need meters now. Jen seconded, and the motion was unanimously approved.
The BMLHA has requested that a board member attend their next meeting on 8/23 at 6:00 pm to give an update on Water District operations. Tom plans to attend.
The BMLHA picnic is on 8/28, and Tom had suggested that we could take any interested
residents to see the new water tank. Joe, Bill, and Ken will attend, and can do that.
Our web site hosting needs to be renewed. Jen proposed that we spend up to $350 for 3 more years of service. Joe seconded and the motion was unanimously approved.
