A

A
C
Problem
so
I
thought
it
was
appropriate
to
talk
about
sun
safety,
seeing
as
I
burned
the
top
of
my
head
on
friday
in
just
a
short
me,
too
short
hours.
So
I
wanted
to
talk
about
sun
safety
and
currently
skin
cancer
is
on
the
rise
in
the
united
states.
One
in
five
americans
are
going
to
be
diagnosed
with
skin
cancer
and
believe
it
or
not
about
9
500
people
per
day
in
the
united
states
get
diagnosed
with
skin
cancer.
C
C
You
know
with
an
spf
of
30
or
higher
wear
a
hat,
which
I
obviously
didn't
wear
on
friday,
considering
it's
all
peeling
out,
choose
a
wide
brim
hat
that
shades
your
face
ears
and
neck,
and
if
you
wear
a
baseball
hat,
apply
sunscreen
to
your
ears
and
neck
right
and
fifth:
wear
sunglasses
with
100,
uva
and
uvb
lenses
to
block
out
the
sun.
Keep
yourself
safe
in
the
sun
this
year.
That's
all
I
have
thank
you.
A
D
A
A
Have
a
motion
in
a
second:
is
there
any
discussion
hearing,
none
all
in
favor,
say
hi
all
right,
oppose
extension
motion
carries
okay
public
hearing.
I
will
now
open
the
public
hearing
for
presenting
the
proposed
wastewater
facilities
plan
update
ron
I'll.
Let
you
turn
this
over
to
you
to
introduce.
E
Yes,
dennis,
are
you
going
to
do
it
sitting.
E
E
F
Great
thanks
ron.
Yes,
please
interrupt.
If
you
have
questions
as
I
move
along,
I
plan
to
just
briefly
go
over
the
steps
that
we
took
from
beginning
to
end
on
the
project.
F
F
It
is
receiving
a
55
planning
grant
to
do
the
study
and,
as
such,
there's
various
requirements
that
we
are
to
follow
as
we
move
through
the
plan,
the
plan
has
been
submitted
to
the
state
the
draft
plan.
F
F
So
anything
we
have
to
do
any
modifications
have
to
be
properly
protected
and
go
through
a
cam
review
with
planning
and
zoning
talk
a
bit
about
energy
everything
we
did
was
looked
at
to
improve
energy
usage
and
consumption
at
the
plant.
We
took
a
holistic
look
at
every.
Basically,
every
single
piece
of
equipment
on
the
site.
We
did
an
evaluation.
We
assembled
a
database
for
the
plant
to
use
moving
forward
for
their
preventative
maintenance
on
on
different
pieces
of
equipment.
F
We
did
look
at
one
of
the
scope.
Items
was
to
look
at
a
regionalization
alternative
where
the
plant
would
be
eliminated
and
flow
would
be
pumped
to
the
town
of
groton's
treatment
facility
for
for
treatment.
So
I
will
talk
about
that
and
the
findings
of
that
and
then,
ultimately,
a
20-year
capital
improvements
plan
was
developed
and
linked
incorporated
into
the
capital
improvements
plans
that
grout
utilities
currently
has
for
their
collection
and
treatment
system.
Then
I'll
talk
a
bit
about
scheduling
and
and
funding
different
funding
sources
that
were
looked
at
for
the
project.
F
F
F
Taking
a
look
at
some
of
the
major
areas
we
looked
at
were
you
know,
residential
infills?
We
spoke
to
yukon
at
avery
point.
We
pfizer
general
dynamics,
electric
boat,
all
of
these
all
of
these
companies.
F
Thanks
ron,
there
you
go
town
of
groton,
seeley
school,
there's
planned
development
over
over
in
that
area
and
then
the
four
corners
area
and
120
west
street.
So,
having
said
all
that,
without
getting
into
the
details
by
the
year,
2045,
an
additional
200,
000,
gallons
or
so
flow
could
potentially
be
coming
to
the
treatment
plant.
F
All
right
so
the
whole
the
first
several
months
of
the
study
we
were
crawling
around
the
plants
looking
at
different
pieces
of
equipment
looking
at
their
their
own
manuals
and
their
maintenance
records.
The
majority
of
the
recommendations
at
the
plant
are
replacing
equipment
in
kind
just
due
to
its
age
and
inefficiency
over
time.
F
Lack
of
the
ability
to
find
spare
parts
for
some
of
these
older
pieces
of
equipment.
So
all
the
pumps,
you
know
all
the
pumps
at
the
plant,
valving
blowers-
are
all
going
to
be
replaced.
Things
such
as
flow
pacing
pumps,
help
with
energy
consumption
and
I'll
talk
a
bit
about
that
on
the
next
slide.
One
of
the
major
improvements
recommended
on
the
liquid
side
is
the
aeration
tank,
so
the
aeration
tanks,
currently
don't
have
any
automated
controls.
F
F
F
F
F
So
we
did
look
at
ways
to
reduce
the
amount
of
trucks
coming
in
and
out
of
facility.
The
amount
of
volume
of
sludge
disposed
of
hauled
away
per
year
and
we
were
able
to
reduce
the
number
we
could.
Potentially
reduce
the
number
of
trucks
in
and
out
of
the
facility
by
about
60
trucks
per
year.
F
F
We
currently
the
plant
uses
city
water
for
process
needs,
they
use
city
water
for
anything
from
you
know,
wash
down
cleaning
vehicle
maintenance,
seal
water
for
pumps,
carrier
water
for
chemicals.
Things
like
that.
The
existing
plant
water
system,
which
is
comprised
of
some
pumps
and
some
piping,
which
plant
water
is
your
final
effluent.
F
So
when
I
say
plant
effluent,
you're
taking
your
the
the
end
product
before
it
goes
to
the
thames
river
is,
is
captured,
drawn
into
a
pump
and
then
distributed
around
the
facility
that
entire
system
would
need
to
be
replaced
and
upgraded.
It
turned
out
that
maintaining
city
water
use
was
more
cost
effective
for
your
facility.
F
F
F
That
work
is
being
conducted
by
grant
utilities
staff
they're,
putting
two
new
chemical
feed
tanks
in
new
chemical
feed
pumps
piping.
So
all
of
that
material
has
been
ordered
it's
all
on
site
and
that
project
is
underway.
I
would
say
it
should
be
completed
by
the
end
of
the
summer.
Doug
would
you
say:
okay,
another
project
which
is
currently
in
design.
F
That
system
is
from
the
80s,
no
major
upgrades
to
it
since
that
time,
so
we're
currently
looking
to
install
a
new
carbon
vessel
in
the
same
location
and
it
will
draw
from
all
of
the
same
locations
that
current
the
current
unit
does
with
the
addition
of
there's
a
wet
well
over
on
the
other
side
of
the
street.
F
That
is
currently
not
the
other
side
of
the
site
that
currently
is
not
odor
controlled,
so
it
would
be
adding
it
to
to
the
to
the
system
and
that
project
is
expected
to
be
ready
to
go
out
to
bid
by
september
1
august
august,
september-ish.
F
All
right,
so
again,
as
I
as
I
mentioned,
the
facility
is
the
groton
city,
gra
and
pollution
debate
facility
is
located
in
the
fema
flood
ae
zone.
The
site
is
uniquely
split
by
two
elevations,
not
quite
sure
how
that
works,
but
that's
how
fema
has
it
so
any
anything
that
you
do
at
the
facility
if
you're
going
to
use
any
sort
of
federal
or
state
funds,
you
have
to
protect
your
equipment
to
up
to
at
least
one
foot
above
the
fema
flood
elevation.
F
F
Just
quickly
on
energy,
this
this
graph
here,
you
could
see
the
plant
uses
about
60
000
kilowatt
hours
of
electricity
a
month,
and
it
goes
up.
It
doubles
over
a
hundred
and
twenty
thousand
in
the
wintertime.
F
This
is
pretty
typical
for
treatment
plant
or
any
facility
in
new
england,
with
heating
season
in
the
winter,
but
again
looking
at
ways
to
flatten
that
curve.
There's
three
or
four
major
things
that
we
looked
at
by
flow
pacing,
the
return,
sludge
pumps
and
what
that
means
is
it
the
pumps
will
will
change
speeds
based
on
the
flow
of
the
plant,
so
you're,
not
pumping
at
its.
You
know,
highest
energy
consumption
point
24
7.,
replacing
the
boiler
in
the
operations
building
has
an
eight-year
payback.
That's
that's
currently
being
done
now.
F
I
think
the
boiler,
hopefully
that
boiler
will
not
have
to
be
turned
on
again.
It's
I
think
it's
it's
life
expectancy
is
is
over,
so
I
mean
we
need
to
get
the
the
new
odor
control
and
hvac
project
up
and
going
before
this
coming
winter
season
and
then
converting
the
aeration
system
to
a
continuous
aeration
system
with
controls.
Automated
controls
has
about
an
11-year
payback
and
then,
of
course,
one
of
the
no-brainer
is
all
your
lighting
to
leds,
which
they
have
started,
that
at
the
plant.
F
Again,
just
a
little
bit
about
the
asset
evaluation,
we
took
an
inventory
of
of
every
single
piece
of
equipment
on
the
site.
We
took
temperature
readings
vibration.
This
was
all
done.
Epa
has
a
whole
document
with
guidelines
on
how
to
how
to
conduct
this
evaluation
to
predict
consequence
of
failure.
Criticality,
we
did
a
risk
analysis,
but
again
all
that
equipment
was
prioritized
in
a
list
provided
to
to
joe
and
his
staff.
F
This
slide
here
shows
the
regionalization
alternative
that
we
looked
at.
We
were
presented
with
two
options.
This
is
the
plant
is
here.
This
is
the
northwest
interceptor
from
the
city
of
gratton.
Excuse
me:
that's
a
type
must
be
a
touch
screen.
Okay,
so
in
order
to
eliminate
the
treatment
plant,
you
would
need
to
convert
it
to
a
pump
station.
You
still
have
to
get
it
to
the
town
of
groton,
so
the
site
would
would
be
converted
to
a
large
pump
station,
and
then
you
would
have
to
install
about
two
miles
of
14-inch
pipe.
F
Again,
a
little
bit
hard
to
see
here
on
this
slide,
but
the
estimated
cost
to
conduct
a
comprehensive
upgrade
to
the
treatment
plant
based
on
all
of
the
improvements
we
came
up
with
was
is
about
nine
million
dollars.
That's
a
seven
million
dollar
construction
cost
and
the
remaining
two
million
is
legal
financing.
Administrative
engineering
services,
things
of
that
nature.
F
The
next
two
slides
sort
of
break
down
all
the
improvements
over
the
next
20
years.
So
you'll
see
you
know.
The
first
item
is
the
the
nine
million
dollar
project
and
we
split
that
into
a
four
year
period
from
2025
to
2028.
F
I'll,
explain
why
we
did
that
in
a
moment
it
has
to
do
with
with
the
funding
potential
funding,
and
then
some
of
these
other
items
are
items
that
do
not
need
to
be
done
now.
They
need
to
be
done,
5,
10,
15
or
even
20
years
from
now,
so
I'll
make
sure
everyone
gets
a
copy
of
the
presentation,
but
you
can
see
you
know
2025
to
2028
you're
covering
you're,
not
you're,
you're,
9
million
and
then
in
2032.
F
You
know
another
900
000
tried
to
split
it
up
as
best
we
could,
while
working
with
utility
financial
services,
we
we
hired
them
as
a
subcontract
to
us.
They
they
did
your
cost
to
cost
a
service
model,
so
we
did
get
them
involved
towards
the
end.
F
The
reason
let
me
go
back
to
the
reason
why
we're
starting
the
upgrade
in
2025
is
pushing
it
off
a
couple
of
years,
allows
you
to
make
no
changes
to
the
the
current
rate
track
that
was
approved
by
the
commission.
So
again
we
worked
with
mark.
He
prepared
a
separate
report.
It
is
part
of
this
plan.
I
believe
I
also
sent
it
separately
to
doug
if
anybody
wants
to
take
a
look
at
it.
But
to
me
this
is
this
provides
a
couple
of
advantages
for
you
one
is.
F
It
gives
you
time
to
get
ready
for
it,
but
secondly,
I
mean
who
who
wants
to
go
to
construction
right?
Now
I
mean
I
certainly
don't.
Construction
costs
are
just
astronomical
and
I
think
doing
it.
This
way,
positions
you
to
take
your
time,
get
the
design
done
and
then,
as
the
market
starts
coming
down,
you
can
really
you
know
you
can.
You
know,
get
your
project
in
there
for
bidding
when
you
know
when
the
construction
and
supply
chain
issues
have
have
started
to
to
tail
off.
F
So
again,
another
funding
potential
for
the
project
is
the
clean
water
fund.
This
the
state
of
connecticut
clean
water
fund
program,
which
is
a
20
grand
80
percent
loan.
Typically,
we
did
put
this
project
into
the
dep
to
be
included
on
their
priority
list.
Every
year
they
develop
a
priority
list.
F
F
You
get
additional
bonus
points
for
any
anything
that
has
to
do
with
nitrogen
improvements
or
phosphorus
improvements.
You
do
not
have
phosphorus
removal
here,
you're
right
on
the
thames
river,
but
anything
associated
with
the
aeration
system
upgrade
would
qualify
for
nitrogen
removal
and
would
would
likely
bump
up
that
grant
percentage.
F
Again.
As
I
stated,
the
current
rate
track
would
be
maintained
by
by
not
starting
the
project
until
2025
mean
there's
also
different,
bonding
sources
that
your
finance
department
could
look
at
to
try
to
fund
the
project,
and
hopefully
you
know
we'll
see
what
comes
out
with
some
of
these
infrastructure
bills.
For
for
additional
funding
sources
for
you
to
use
for
the
treatment
plan,
so
again,
as
far
as
the
schedule
moving
forward,
the
draft
plan
has
been
submitted
to
to
the
uc.
It's
been
submitted
to
the
state
of
connecticut.
F
We
are
having
our
required
public
hearing
today
june
15
2022.,
once
I
receive
comments
back
from
everyone,
we'll
finalize
the
plan
and
get
final
dep
approval,
so
you
folks
can
close
your
application
for
the
55
planning
grant
and
that's
yeah,
that's
that's
about
it!
So
I
mean.
Does
anyone
have
any
questions
or
like
me
to
back
up
to
a
particular
slide.
F
F
No
because
you
have
to
even
if
you
get
the
grant,
you
still
have
to
prove
to
the
state
that
you
have
the
money
in
place.
G
F
Plant,
so
I'm
aware
that
some
abatement
was
done
during
the
last
upgrade.
I
have
looked
at
those
reports,
but
as
part
of
the
in
the
next
phase,
we
would
do
physical
testing
to
identify
those
areas
that
that
work
was
as
not
done
as
part
of
the
evaluation
phase,
so
yeah
that
fifty
thousand
dollars
is
it's
just
a
an
allowance.
For
now
it
likely
will
be,
could
be
less
could
be
more
we're
only
required
to
abate
what
we
touch.
F
So
one
thing
I've
learned
you
know
in
the
past
we
have,
you
know
sampled,
the
whole
entire
plant
right
and-
and
that
puts
you
at
a
disadvantage,
because
now
you
know
where
you
have
these
pcbs
and
these
led
this
asbestos
and
and
so
by
you're,
legally
required
to
abate
it
or
at
least
report
it
to
the
state.
So
the
approach
that
we
take
is
once
we
find
out
what
we're
going
to
be
demolishing.
F
F
Oh
that's:
when
we
go
into
the
design,
so
we
would
do
a
survey.
You
know
we
would
send
a
surveyor
out
there
to
shoot.
D
We
have
an
epilogue
pipe
between
the
tower
and
the
city
of
coming
down
things
street.
F
D
I'm
not
saying
thomas
road,
thomas,
yes,.
F
F
Yeah,
we
did
look
at
that.
I
looked
at
that
with
with
joe
and
ray
and
doug.
We
wound
up
not
carrying
that
alternative
any
further.
When
we
looked
at
the
other
two
just
we
did
talk
to
the
town
of
gratton.
We
got
some
information
from
them.
I
guess
that
that
project
was
a
seven
year.
It
took
seven
years
to
get
permitting
approval
and
there's
just
even
more
utilities.
We
have
the
same
issues
with
that
route
as
we
do
with
this
other
one.
F
I
didn't
do
a
write-up
on
that,
but
I
mean
again,
this
is
a
draft
plan.
If
you
would
like
to
know
more
information
about
why
we
eliminated
it.
I
could
include
that
in
in
the
discussion,
so
we
did
look
at
it.
Yes,
okay,.
H
Nine
nine
something
million,
but
we
also
have
this
regionalization
alternative-
that's
25
million
over
there.
Yes,.
F
You
don't
want
to
sum
it
up
together.
So
in
the
re
in
the
actual
report,
we
did
a
life
cycle
cost
of
of
of
that
versus.
I
think
that
it
was
a
40-year
payback.
It
turned
out
to
be
so.
We
took
the
25
million
capital
for
the
regional
plus
the
1.8
million
o
m
and
compared
that
to
the
9
million
plus
their
typical
o
m
at
the
plant,
which
I
I
don't
know.
F
I
think
it
was
two
point
something
million
I
want
to
say
I
can't
recall
it
came
right
out
of
the
operating
budget,
so
we
did
a
comparison
of
those
two
and
it
turned
out
to
be
more
cost
effective
to
maintain
the
plant
at
this
particular
time.
H
The
other
thing
is,
while
we
shift
away
this
project
course
do
you
put.
Do
you
calculate
a
buffer
of
the
cost
of
oems
and
whatnot
three
years
down
the
road
compared
to
what
it
is
today
with
inflation,
recession
and
stagnation,
so
900
000
or
a
million
dollars,
is
actually
being
calculated
interest
and
the
percentage
basis
point
is
going
to
be
a
lot
more.
F
F
We
have,
I
think
I
used
five
percent
for
the
inflation,
but
I
mean
who
knows
I
I
didn't
know
what
number
to
use
it
could
be.
Eight,
ten,
twelve
two
I
mean
it's
everything's,
so
crazy
right
now,
but
this
nine
million
includes
inflation
to
the
respective
years
that
I
have
these
values,
so
the
nine
million
already
includes
the
inflation.
So
these
four
numbers
add
up
to
the
nine
million,
but
something
like
this
here
see
the
second
one.
Four
hundred
thousand
it's.
It
goes
from
four
hundred
to
five.
F
Ninety
two,
because
I'm
in
I
have
accounting
for
inflation
out
to
the
year
2032..
So
it
does
include
inflation.
It
does
include
contingencies,
I
believe
a
20
contingency,
but
you
know
in
in
in
five
years
it
this
could
still
be
nine
million.
You
know
it
could
be
more,
it
could
be
less.
It's
a
tough
one.
H
F
Yeah
we
did
the
best
we
could
to
try
to
account
for
it.
We
we
have
people
in
our
company
who
follow
that
the
construction
industry,
you
know,
and
one
of
the
things
and
not
to
go
off
on
a
tangent,
but
you
know
the
american
iron
and
steel
and
the
buy
back
america
requirements
that
are
coming
up
are
only
going
to
make
this
number
go
higher
when
you,
because
you
have
no
choice,
you
gotta
buy
it
in
america
and
if
it's
not
available,
you
gotta
wait
so.
B
F
Well,
so
so
we
get
creative
with
that.
If
you
are
you
familiar
with
the
site?
Yes,
so
you
know
everything
in
the
towards
the
thames
riverside
is
like
elevated.
All
of
those
tanks
are
above
or
at
or
above
where
they
need
to
be,
but
it's
the
lower
site.
So
the
operation,
the
administration
building
is
the
finished
floor
is,
is
fine,
but
you
have
a
couple
of
tanks
that
are
low,
so
what
we
do
is
there's
a
way
to
you
can
grandfather
existing
tanks.
F
What
we
do
is
you
convince
the
regulatory
authority
that
a
tank
so
say
you
have
a
tank,
a
tank
can
be
below
the
100-year
flood
elevation,
but
any
ports
or
openings
or
electrical
switches
or
fans
or
motors
all
have
to
be
elevated.
So,
for
example,
for
this
odor
control
project.
F
So
for
this
right
now
so
female,
this
will
give
you
the
perfect
example.
This
is
elevation
10,
the
top
of
that
tank
fema
flood
elevation
is
14
in
this
area.
So
currently
none
of
this
stuff
is
meets
your
flood
protection
requirements.
What
we're
proposing
is
the
new
vessel-
oh
jeez,
sorry
about
that.
I'm
like
I'm,
not
very
technologically
yeah,
okay,
oh
geez,
so
let
me
just
stay
away
from
it.
F
So
then
the
new
vessel
will
be
at
that
elevation
of
the
tank.
But
what
we'll
have
is
we'll
have
a
this
fan
will
be
up
elevated
about
four
feet
in
the
air
so
that
if
the
site
was
inundated
with
sea
water
or
flood
water,
the
purpose
of
that
is
such
that
when
the
waters
recede,
you
can
start
everything
back
up
and
go
back
into
operation
and
not
have
to
replace
a
fan
and
replace
a
motor
and
replace
conduit
and
wire.
So
it's
more
that's
more
of
the
the
goal
there.
A
Well
and
it's
probably
going
to
be
be
changed
based
on
the
projection
of
20th
sea
level
rise
in
30
years,
so
there
are
a
couple
things
that
when
you
look
at
a
resiliency
is
one
is
the
ability
for
the
plant
to
recover
after
a
storm
and
then
get
ready
for
the
next
storm.
That's
the
resilience,
that's
part
of
the
resiliency.
A
The
other
part
that
people
tend
to
focus
on
is
a
20-inch
sea
level
rise.
So
there
may
come
a
time
and
to
look
at
whether
or
not
we
need
to
harden
some
of
the
areas
which
could
be
additional
walls
or
a
dentist
is
saying
you
set
you
and
put
the
equipment
in
and
it's
elevated
such
that
the
accesses,
the
electrical,
the
pumps,
anything
that
could
be
negatively
impacted
by
flooding,
is
above
the
ae
zone
or
the
pe
zone
right
correct.
So
that's
part
of
the
planning
and
part
of
what
we
need
to
do
here.
A
The
other
thing
is,
we
start
projecting
25
there's
still.
If
you
go
back
and
look
at
the
budget
we
just
approved,
there
is
non-bonded
capital
projects
and
there's
bonded
projects
that
we
are
currently
doing
in
the
in
the
vaf
right.
So
we're
do
it's
not
like
we're
waiting
to
do
anything,
we're
starting
we're
doing
projects
now
and
then
the
9
million
dollar
project,
the
big
one
starts
in
25.
A
correct.
Does
that
make
sense
so
and
the
work
that
we're
doing
now
has
all
been
factored
into
the
current
rate
golf
service
study
that
we
did
for
the
rates
and
we
just.
F
A
Not
only
the
the
water
from
the
soup
from
toilets
everything
else,
but
you're
also
processing
the
water
that
comes
in
from
the
cracks
that
are
in
the
pipe
right
from
the
gravity
fed
lines.
F
F
F
A
A
A
There
was
additional
correspondence
that
came
in
from
sam
spano
that
I
think
you
guys
received
yes,
so
that's
additional
correspondence
there.
A
We
don't
have
it
in
an
effort
to
kind
of
for
a
time
crunch.
On
this
we
don't
have
a
discussion,
a
wastewater
treatment
plan
but
but
marked
for
next
month.
I
would
like
to
address
the
question
about
the
bible,
scrubbers
and,
and
that
and
and
get
get
that
on
the
record
about
the
removal
and
and
those
kinds
of
things,
so
so
we're
going
to
address
it.
If
you
do
have
the
results,
the
right,
pierce
odor
study
as
well,
okay,
perfect-
and
we
may
want
to
talk
about
that
next
month
as
well.
A
A
Okay,
then,
please
come
up
state,
your
name
and
your
I'm.
B
Tom
olsen
188
crosswinds
drive
and
groton,
I'm
representing
the
vice
president
for
the
tri-town
trails,
I'd
just
like
to
communicate
back
to
you
guys,
thanks
for
recognizing
the
tri-town
trail,
as
well
as
the
crosstown
greenway
back
on
the
third
of
june.
We
appreciate
your
participation
in
that
effort.
Also,
we
have
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
with
your
consultant
back
on
the
24th
of
may.
We
had
good
discussions.
B
We
also
did
a
hike
on
the
on
some
of
your
properties
and
support
that
appreciate
the
support
that
your
staff
provided
to
make
that
all
happen
and
we're
standing
by
to
meet
with
and
do
the
survey
that
we're
going
to
follow
on
here
and
to
provide
any
other
inputs
that
in
the
future.
That's
all
I
wanted
to
say
today
and
thank
you
for
the
support
you've
gotten
so
far.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
I
Okay,
good
morning,
I'm
going
to
go
through
the
financial
high
nights
first
month
and
fiscal
year
today
for
all
three
divisions.
So,
electric
the
main
electric
revenue
for
the
month
are
4.3
million,
including
the
ppatca
adjustment,
which
is
24.6
percent
or
a
153
000
more
than
the
budget
and
20.2
more
than
last
may.
I
The
positive
variance
is
driven
by
the
pptca
on
the
adjustment
total
of
595
000
collected
for
the
month
to
cover
the
increase
in
the
power
cost
on
purchase
power
cost.
The
total
kilowatt
hour
sold
for
the
month
is
1.3
percent
more
than
last
may
so
this
year
today,
the
total
electric
revenue
is
46.2
million,
including
pptca
adjustment,
which
is
7.3
or
3.1
million
more
than
the
budget
and
2.7
percent
more
than
last
fiscal
year
today.
I
So
the
total
kilowatts
are
sold
for
fiscal
year.
Today
is
kind
of
a
flat-ass
last
fiscal
year,
just
slightly
more
than
over
by
0.5
percent.
I
So
this
is
revenue
side
they
for
the
expense
side.
The
operation
maintenance,
expense
for
the
month
is
3.4
percent
below
the
budget,
and
the
income
for
the
month
is
70
000
more
than
the
budget,
and
the
favorite
variance
is
driven
by
the
over
budget
revenue
and
the
biloba
gt
experience
here
today.
I
Operation,
maintenance,
expense
is
9.8
percent
below
the
budget
or
1.1
million,
which
is
really
driven
by
the
major
driven
by
the
I.t.
The
cost
is
below
the
budget
and
also
the
legal
air
service.
Professional
service
cost
is
below
the
budget
as
of
today,
and
the
net
income
is
1.6
million
more
than
the
budget,
and
it's
driven
by
the
overall
budget
revenue
plus
below
budget,
the
operation,
maintenance,
expense.
I
So
the
conservation
fund,
since
the
total
71
000
collected
for
the
month
and
58
000
spent
for
rebates
and
related
costs.
As
of
end
of
the
month,
the
2.3
million
on
the
conservation
funds
is
available
on
the
account
hold
ncmac.
A
I
I
This
is
really
driven
by
one
of
the
industrial
customers
and
their
water
load
is
comparison.
Budget
is
almost
60
percent
below
the
budget
and
we
are
like
this.
The
variances
were
still
put
in
under
the
investigations.
I
I
don't
know
parents
not
here
and
aaron's
group
who
sent
out
a
request
to
test
the
meter
trying
to
figure
out.
What's
the
the
reasons
driven
by
that
the
decrease
of
water
sales
for
one
of
the
industrial
customers,
so
that
will
when
we
go
to
the
source.
This
is
the
same
impact
for
the
store
revenue
for
the
month
physics
year
today,
water
revenue
of
10.3
million
and
10.3
million
is
1.1
or
110
000
below
the
budget
and
3
percent
or
321
000
less
than
last
fiscal
year.
I
Today,
negative
variance
is
driven
by
the
industry
sales
and
also
the
sales
for
resales
which
below
the
budget
by
2.8
percent
and
2.5
percent
respectively,
so
for
water
operation
and
maintenance
expense
for
the
month
is
3.1
percent
over
the
budget.
Let's
be
due
to
the
year
end,
we
started
to
catch
up
some
of
the
costs,
so
this
month
shows
over
the
budget.
I
Operation
managed,
expense
and
late
in
comfort
amounts
are
79
000
below
the
budget.
The
unfavorable
variance
of
net
income
is
driven
by
the
below
budget
revenue
plus
over
budget
operation
and
managed
expense,
but
for
fiscal
year
today
and
on
the
total
appreciate,
maintenance
expense
shows
7.4
percent
below
the
budget,
which
is
600
12
000
below
the
budget
and
which
is
major
driven
by
the
pumping
equipment
and
some
I.t
cost,
and
also
for
the
professional
service
and
legal
cost
is
below
the
budget.
I
A
I
Water,
this
is
different
from
the
deduct
meter.
B
I
A
A
E
I
The
reason
I
mentioned
when
we
talked
about
the
water
one
of
the
major
industrial
customers,
their
water
loads,
is
down
by
almost
60
percent,
which
is
under
investigation
and
another
one
is
the
always
a
deduct
meter
issue
that
have
the
impact
so
physically
our
fiscal
year
today,
sewer
revenue
of
3.5
million
is
9.2
percent
or
360
000
below
the
budget
and
almost
seventeen
thousand
seventeen
percent
less
than
last
fiscal
year.
Today,
the
negative
variance
is
driven
by
the
industry
sales,
which
is
16
almost
16
percent
below
the
budget.
I
I
This
is
the
main
driver
here
today
this
gear.
Today,
the
operations
bonus
is
13
percent
below
the
body,
which
is
about
400
000.
The
major
driver
is
the
ordinary
repairs
below
the
budget,
I.t
cost
below
the
budget
and
the
legal
and
professional
services
under
the
budget
so
far
and
net
income,
as
of
today,
is
84
000
more
than
the
budget,
so
we're
still
over
the
still
more
than
the
budget.
The
favorite
balance
is
driven
by
the
below
budget
operating
expense
offset
by
the
below
budget
revenues.
I
D
Industrial
revenues
line
12
for
108
000
less.
That
represents
the
deduct
meters
in
something
else.
I
One
is
the
regular
like
the
deduct
meter
the
denominator.
This
year
the
average
have
60
percent
deduct
from
the
water
usage
showing
on
that
the
one
specific
one
industrial
customer
and
another
major
driver
is
we
mentioned
by
another
there's
two
major
industry
customers
for
sewer
division
and
one
is
has
the
deductive
meter
issue.
Another
one
is
because
there
are
water
sales
for
this
month,
for
some
reason
is
60
percent
below
the
budget.
So
that's
still
under
the
investigation.
We
don't
know
the
exactly
the
reason
rob
mentioned
about
properties.
I
I
Is
came
from
that
other
the
water
low
water
sales
is
like
decrease
a
lot.
I
Okay,
I'm
sorry
before
I
I
have
one
thing
I
want
to
mention
to
the
commissioners
of
this
group,
so
we
they
made
13.
We
got
our
like
the
audience
financials.
Finally,
so,
and
the
the
cafe
already
uploaded
to
our
website
and
rang,
your
house
has
several
like
the
hard
copies
and
his
office.
If
anyone
interest
bar,
we
can
grab
the
copies
for
you.
So
I
took
a
quick
look
for
the
impact
on
geocite.
The
major
adjustment
and
the
year
under
from
the
auditor
is
the
punishing
and
open
adjustments.
I
So,
overall,
the
pension
adjustment
for
the
geosite
is
1.9
million,
as
they
are.
They
are
reduced
as
a
tension,
ability
by
1.9
million
and
increase
the
open
lobby
by
600
000
for
serial
activation,
combined
with
other
small
adjustments,
so
total
net
impact
for
all
three
divisions:
1.3
million
on
the
favorable,
the
impact
for
so
long
allocate
to
electric,
so
electric
decrease
the
total
cost
by
784
thousand
water
is
down
by
390
and
the
sewer
is
129
000.
I
129
000.
29.
yeah.
So
this
is
measures
you
know
the
year
under
the
actuary
they're
doing
that
they
open
and
publishing
the
estimated
calculations.
This
is
just
based
on
the
market,
the
venue
and
all
the
all
the
consumptions.
They
just
do
the
year-end
adjustment,
so
this
is
major
the
adjustment
for
the
year-end
audit
for
2021..
I
If
you
have
more
questions
or
need
any
information,
you
can
come
to
me
after
the
meeting
where
we
can
talk
with
your
house
about
this
stuff.
A
We
just
recently
had
our
bond
rating
changed
from
double
a
minus
to
double
a
so
it
was
improved
and
the
translation
for
that
is
going
to
make
it
cheaper
for
us
to
borrow
money
now,
markets,
volatile
things
are
going
up
and
down,
and
we're
trying
to
work
through
that
and
figure
that
out
when
we
go
to
buying
these
projects
that
are
mostly
utility
projects
right
now
in
excess
of
20
they're
greater
than
20
right
25
is
what
you
said:
28
sorry
over
28
million
and
we're
going
to
be
bonding.
H
A
D
Saving
taxes
right,
maybe
part
putting
in
the
bulletin.
A
Or
well
we're
getting
on
the
utility
bill,
yep.
C
A
I
haven't
decided
how
we're
going
to
do
it,
but
I'm
getting
help
and
we
are
going
to
doubt
that
then
we
did
we'll
get
that
that
we
got
that
improvement,
cool.
E
A
Projects,
initiatives
updates
transmission.
What
do
we
have
josh.
A
K
The
transmission
line
project
we're
currently
all
holes
are
drilled,
most
of
the,
and
now
we
have
as
of
last
night,
we
have
seven
poles
that
are
fully
installed
the
1280
the
1280
line
should
looks
like
it
will
be
done
by
the
middle
to
the
late
part
of
next
week,
and
that's
basically
all
that
we
have
to
update
on.
There
is
any
questions
about
that.
A
All
right,
that's
really
the
bottom
line
that
you
guys
are
interested
in,
but
I
think
actually
we're
ahead
of
schedule,
but
I
don't
want
to
quote
you
I
mean
I'm
not.
I
have
to
go
back
and
look
at
my
schedule,
but
I
think
we're
ahead
of
schedule
a
little
bit
the
fact
that
we
have
all
the
holes
drilled,
that's
tremendous.
That
means
we're
not
going
to
run
into
potential
problems.
D
J
Good
morning,
commissioners,
just
so
that
you're
aware
we
actually
were
awarded
the
ledger:
wpca
contract
for
operations,
water
operations
and
customer
service.
The
contract
is
a
three-year
contract,
with
two
one-year
renewals
in
the
contract
itself.
Because
of
the
the
the
way
the
market
is.
We
put
in
a
five
percent
increase
on
top
of
the
other
increases
and
stated
that
when
we
get
to
the
end
of
the
third
year
that
we
will
go
back
and
reevaluate
all
the
cost
and
the
of
the
maintenance
and
operations
and
be
able
to
provide
a
better
contract
pricing.
J
H
A
A
You
can
this
is
why
rick's
not
here
because
he's
he's
on
vacation,
you
have
one
more,
how
many
more.
A
Sorry,
you
can
leave
when
you
want.
Some
people
are
dancing
in
the
streets,
not
the
street.
I
live
on
so
so
anyway,
but
rick
and
ray
have
have
spent.
You
know
a
lifetime
here
great
careers
and
have
moved
water
forward,
and
definitely
they
will
be
missed.
So
thank
you
for
what
you've
done
all
right.
Thank
you.
Tina
you're
welcome,
when's,
the
party
yeah.
E
F
For
stuff
like
that,
so.
A
Yeah,
I've
gotten
a
couple
positive
comments
regarding
that
all
right,
new
business,
starting
a
new
business
right
before
the
body,
I'm
hearing
that
we'll
move
on
to
action
items.
How
am
I
gonna
do
this?
Let's
see
here
all
right,
I
need
a
motion
for
guc
wpca.
H
A
E
Right
and
we
put
them
through
for
approval
in
bulk-
and
we
did
all
of
them
because
they're
multi-year
contracts,
so
they
really
needed
to
be
approved
both
here
and
at
council.
If
you
look
at
the
total
spend
on
the
multi-year
contracts.
A
A
A
J
A
A
Hey
we
have
a
motion.
A
second.
Is
there
any
further
discussion
on
adding
these
to
the
agenda?
Any
hearing,
none
all
in
favor,
say
aye.
All
right,
oppose
extension
motion
carries
okay.
Where
am
I
I
mean
I'll,
take
a
motion
for
gucci,
22-06-26.
D
K
I'd
like
to
first
thank
the
commission
in
the
commission,
the
chairman
for
allowing
us
to
get
these
on
this
one.
I
know
this
is
unusual
and
I
thank
you
for
that.
Did
this
first
one
is
for
the
relay
panel
construction
for
buttington
substation.
We
needed
to
be
able
to
house
our
new
relays.
K
We
selected
this
company,
it's
the
same
company
that
did
a
card
in
mongol
for
eversource,
so
it's
going
to
be,
and
we
also
have
the
same
relays
that
every
source
has
so
it's
going
to
be
uniform
and
we
can
speak
to
each
other.
Clearly,
the
sorry,
this
nature,
this
contract,
this
quote
only
holds
for
a
very
short
period
of
time,
it's
about
15
days
and
that's
why
we
had
to
rush
it.
This
way
we
just
got
the
numbers
back
in
on
monday.
A
Oh
we're
gonna
need
oops,
sorry
open
any
discussion.
Commissioners.
D
The
written
amount
says
250
000,
the
dollar
type
typed
out
is
205
000.
Oh
sorry,.
A
K
Okay,
so
there's
no
quote,
because
this
is
a
budgetary
quote:
the
vendor
is
unable
to
provide
us
with
a
hard
quote
at
this
time,
we'll
be
getting
that
number
by
friday
afternoon.
So
when
we
go
to
the
commission
of
the
hole
and
council
will
have
that
number,
which
is
all
this
budgetary
quote
of
158
160
dollars,
the
vendor
feels
confident
that
we'll
be
plus
or
minus
a
little
bit
there.
So
at
ron's
guidance
with
bruce,
we
elected
a
30
contingency,
just
to
make
sure
we're
going
to
be
okay,
okay,.
K
A
They're
going
to
do
all
right,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
and
make
sure
I
understand
the
expectations,
any
other
questions
or
comments
regarding
this
promotion.
Commissioner,
does
this.
I
K
K
K
These
are
the
normal
transformers
that
we
keep
in
stock
on
a
on
a
basis
for
a
storm
restoration
and
for
new
customer
service.
It's
the
dollar
amounts
are
just
much
higher
than
we've
seen
before,
so
we've
decided
that
and
it's
best
to
order
a
more
of
a
ball
folder
this
time.
So
that
way
we
don't
have
to
wait
next
time
if
there's
a
storm
or
something
like
that.
There's
also
on
that
packet.
You'll,
see,
there's
a
36
week
lead
time
on
most
of
these
and
some
of
them
push
up
closer
to
52
weeks.
A
All
right,
plus
we're
coming
in
the
storm
season
coming
into
hurricane
season
and
what
impacts
the
rest
of
the
nation
impacts
us
regarding
electrical
and
transformers
and
everything
else
that
we
need
so,
as
it
puts
upward
pressure
on
that
if
there's
damage
any
other
question
or
comments
on
this
motion,
yeah.
K
A
It
is
but
it's
you
know
it's
the
environment
that
we're
in
there
are
a
lot
of
factors
that
are
impacting
it,
but.
E
A
D
A
All
right,
any
other
questions
or
comments
regarding
this
motion.
Hearing
that
all
in
favor
say
hi
oppose
extension
motion
cares.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Josh
appreciate
it
all
right,
so
that
takes
us
to
executive
session
based
on
your
attendance
in
the
previous
executive
session
for
major.
Is
there
any
need
to
go
into
executive
session?
