Another round of testing for the H2S odor was just completed and it is quite evident that the air compressor and the carbon filters are making a big difference. There have been no other complaints from residents in the area of the odor. Portion B waiting for the siphon to be fully charged and to make sure there are no leaks before Siphon Road is paved next month. There is a punch list for Paradise Lift Station to deal with.

Administrator Smart called the meeting to order at 10:05 AM. APPROVE MINUTES OF BOARD MEETING HELD October 27, 2011 Hadley moved to approve the minutes from October 27, 2011 meeting as mailed; Herrick seconded. All approved. REVIEW CONSTRUCTION STATUS FOR NORTHWEST SEWER INTERCEPTOR Bridger Morrison from JUB Engineering informed the board on the NWSI status. Portion A construction is done. Operation Maintenance Manual and Record Drawings for the lift station are near completion. Portion B contractor for the lift station is on site making good progress. Completion of lift stations is in the near future. Siphon Road will be paved in the spring. Hadley asked if there have been complaints from the public. Smart explained that the Blaylocks and Fullmers live on the west side of Rio Vista Road just north of the Church Lateral. This is where the force main discharges into the gravity line. The amount of wastewater in the system at this point is so small that it is generating hydrogen sulfide (H2S). An air compressor is being used to force air into the line to keep the waste water oxygenated. A small air compressor is being used now and a larger more appropriate compressor has been ordered. The higher capacity, lower pressure compressor is more suitable for this continuous duty service and should do a better job. It will be supplying six (6) times the air that is being added now. Delivery date is expected next week. Bridger Morrison from JUB has data monitors on site to log levels of H2S. The small air compressor is reducing the H25 considerably, but more needs to be done. Carbon filters are also being used, and will continue to be used to help with the odor. Bridger and the Mayor have communicated with both families to keep them informed with the progress. Paradise Lift station may also need an air compressor because of H2S odor. City crew is looking into the situation. Herrick asked if there was corrosion in the line. Smart commented it is a little early to tell. J: \CIAWCA \CIAWA SECRETARY \Minutes \2012 \CIAWCA Minutes 1.19.12.docx CIAWCA Meeting Minutes 1.19.12 The financial planning for the NWSI project for engineering and construction was 10 million dollars for each portion. Morrison's total is approx 8.3 million for each portion. Both loans will be closed in the near future. Smart informed the board that there have been two (2) connection fees collected to date. Probably the only connection fees that will be collected from here on out is when development happens and or when individual systems go down and the Health Department will not allow repairs. ITEMS FROM BOARD: None ITEMS FROM FLOOR: Tim Shurtliff, Bannock County Engineer, would like to meet with Smart to make sure permits are being handled with streamlining and efficiency. Craig Borrenpohl, DEQ from a loan stand point the State DEQ office is getting ready to allocate new loan money, approx 2 million dollars. DEQ would be happy to visit and inform the families on Rio Vista regarding the health risks involved in the H2S situation. This is a short term issue, not a design issue. As more systems come on line this issue is going to go away. Hadley moved to adjourn; Herrick seconded. All voted in favor. Meeting was adjourned at 10:30 am. NEXT MEETING: The next regular meeting will be at April 26, 2012 10:00 am at the Chubbuck City Office Conference Room.
