The sewer plant is just about complete, it should be running by the end of August. GM Reblin stated we are running an average of 56,000 gallons of sewage a day. GM Reblin stated that with this new plant we can handle 150,000 gallons a day and we will have spray fields so we will be able to do about 250,000 gallons a day, we also have acreage for expansion if we need it. Board Member Ridgeway asked about the status of the water meter project, it is out yet, we are talking about just doing the meter replacement first and see where the bids come in at, then do a change order to see how many saddles we can replace, also there is money out there for lead pipe replacement and we have applied for that.
