· The ROW crew finished up cutting in Powdersville last Thursday and moved to the HWY 187 and HWY 76 area. We finished this area on Tuesday, and found one manhole that had been hit, that we had to repair.
· Downloaded data from 2 flow monitors in the Stonehaven Subdivision.
· The ROW crew started inspecting sewer lines in the Stonehaven Subdivision with our CCTV camera. The camera got stuck in a section of pipe that had been repaired when a liner was installed approximately ten years ago. We had to call in a contractor to remove the section of pipe in order to get the camera out. They repaired the pipe and sewer service was restored. This repair did require us to work after hours.
· Cleaned 200 feet of sewer line in Stonehaven Subdivision that had some roots at a joint. These roots were found while inspecting the lines with the camera and it appeared to be coming from a service line.
· The ROW crew started cutting some of the Anderson property near Walgreens on Wednesday, and should be finished by weeks end.
