Woodland Hills Sanitary
District
February 2020 Minutes
The
February meeting of the Woodland Hills Sanitary District board was called to
order at 6:34pm on Wednesday, January 8, 2020.
Roll
Call: President
Bobby Sadler established that a quorum existed to conduct the meeting. In attendance were Lois Lund, Dylan Striebel
(Clearwater Consulting) and board members Garry Colosardo, Jim Stewart and John
Knight.
Adoption
of Agenda: Bobby
presented the agenda to the board and it was unanimously adopted.
Secretary’s
Report: The
January minutes were reviewed and unanimously approved.
Income
Report:
For
January:
Net
income was $4,325.
Gallons
pumped were 399,145.
Gallons
pumped a year ago 407,312.
Water
Report: Water losses for January were 24 percent. Still creeping up.
A
leak test was performed at 7104 Tanager and the service line turned out to be
ok. The leak is inside the house,
perhaps a toilet that is not sealed 100 percent.
On
the morning of Monday, Feb 10 Dylan happened to notice that the Lark Lane tanks
were nearly empty and SCADA failed to alert.
The main well pump would not start but the backup well pump started and
the tanks were filling. Morford Electric
diagnosed two blown fuses and a bad disconnect switch. Those were replaced and the main well pump
came back online. Ed noticed everything
was working fine on a Feb 6 check.
Black Hills Energy had sent out an outage text message at 00:41 on
Friday, Feb 7. A text msg at 00:44 said
power was back on. Perhaps a surge hit
the well house and damaged the components.
As
to the SCADA system Dakota Pump had changed servers and did not inform Ed of
the new IP addresses. Once Ed got the
new address for the SCADA servers he was able to operate the system and
notifications appear to be working again.
By 1am on Feb 11 the tanks were filled.
Road
Report: No income for roads in
January. Resident Mark Raymon attended
the meeting and wanted to hear about the snow plow policy.
