OPERATIONS REPORT  Water production continues at the lowest level in years.  Although June was a very wet month, we only pumped 4.73 million gallons down from 9.13 last year.

Bob will follow up with South Dakota Rural Water Company on the availability of their leak detection trailer and will schedule the leak checking of Powderhorn Drive, Steamboat circle and Copper Hills, when the trailer is available.

The chemical tanks will be ready to move to the newly constructed chemical storage area next week.  They are being drawn down to the lowest level possible before being moved. 

Norm should begin shingling the secondary well pump house soon.   

OLD BUSINESS

High Place Easement:  There will be a meeting at High Place July 12, 2010 at 6:30 PM to vote on the easement for our waterline.  We have decided that the best route for the waterline is down the property line between High Place and the houses to the North of High Place.

The item for the newsletter on leaking service lines was reviewed and revised.  Corey will send out the revised copy.

OLD BUSINESS

Board reviewed the plans for the water line that will come from reservoir through High Place.  The board members did a site visit to review the planned route and also went to the reservoir to look at possible improvements that need to be made when equipment is on site doing the excavation for the new line. Jim Dahlquist shared the concerns that homeowners had about the project and we believe that they should be able to accommodate all or most of the issues that have been brought up.  Jim said we should be ready to go to bid on the project sometime in November. 

Woody has continued to contact  Kathy and Jim Henley about meeting with Ray Lampe or his nephew regarding  our interest in obtaining an option to purchase land for another water reservoir. 

OPERATIONS REPORT

Brandon reported on the testing that was done by Rural Water.  It appears that there is still a leak somewhere on Copper Hill that they will be trying to locate it next week by checking individual homes. 

Directed Brandon to proceed on two projects that needs valves checked to see if they need replacement.

Leak on Powderhorn between duplexes was determined to be the responsibility of the water company.
