SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:
The 2016 budget includes funds to design and construct improvements to the 1.5 MG Zone 3 Water Storage Tank.
During an inspection of the 1.5 mg water tank in 2014, it was discovered that there were leaks at the pipe penetrations of the tank. A remedial repair was done in 2014 using divers to complete the repair. At that time it was not practical to drain the tank for a permanent repair.
The Town completed the construction of the 4 MG Zone 3 Water Storage Tank early spring of 2015. With the new 4 MG tank operational, Town Staff has been able to take the 1.5 MG tank out of service and further assess the repairs needed to correct the leaks. In addition to repairing the leaks, other improvements to the tank have been designed and include adding a mixing system and lining the concrete tank.
