                Mr. Burroughs reviewed the Wastewater Flow Reports with the Commissioners.\u00a0 Starting with Academy Creek, he noted that the only significant issue was on the Enterococci limits.\u00a0 There are some issues meeting the new limit that is in effect.\u00a0 Chlorine dosage has been increased, yet there are still some issues.\u00a0 The working theory is that there are multiple types of bacteria that will pop up on the plates that the colonies are read from, and a small ruler has been ordered that will measure these colonies.\u00a0 If it reads less than a half a millimeter, it does not actually count.\u00a0 The measurement is taken under a microscope.\u00a0 Chlorination has been increased and de-chlorination procedures have been decreased.\u00a0 Flow has returned to normal since October was not as rainy of a month as September was.\u00a0 Concentrations have improved.\u00a0 96% removal on both BOD and TSS at Academy Creek.\u00a0 At Dunbar, there was 3 MGD going out for the month which is in line with the monthly averages for the past couple of years.\u00a0 With less rainwater entering the system on the influent, the strengths are coming up.\u00a0 Everything is well within permit limits.\u00a0 At Southport there are still elevated influent and effluent flows, which staff is investigating.\u00a0 A few defects have been found however there has been no major defect found as of yet.\u00a0 It does appear that there is groundwater getting into the system.\u00a0 Overall, the system is working well within permit limits.\u00a0 Chairman Turnipseed asked for a report to be run and added on alkalinity.<\/p>\n
