Bollards: At the last meeting there was a discussion
on the placement of the bollards at the Victory Plant, but no decision was made
on how to proceed. Mayor Sullivan explained that we should ask Attorney Dixon
to write a letter in response to Laberge’s letter. There was a discussion on not being in agreement with their recent
letter on who’s responsible for the bollards.
Mayor Sullivan explained the history of the bollards.
Commissioner Lloyd made a motion to have Attorney
Dixon write a letter to Laberge and let them know we are not in agreement with
their letter and that we will be hiring someone to put in the bollards in the
appropriate places and we will be taking this cost off their last bill, this
motion was seconded by Commissioner Kahnle, all ayes, motion passed.
Startup request: There was a letter requesting the water
board to provide permission to Shultz to place the victory plant in service to
allow a full commissioning of the plant.
DOH has offered permission to put the plant in service. The request allows the plant to be placed in
service understanding additional work may be outstanding. There also was an email received from
Laberge confirming that the Certificate of substantial completion will not be
issued until demonstration, training and remaining performance sampling is
satisfactorily completed and a final walk through with Water board representative
is conducted. This is yet to be
scheduled.
DOH said it’s ok to test
November 5th, 2008. Commissioner Lloyd made a motion to allow
Shultz to put the victory water system on line on November 5 for testing,
demonstration and training, this motion was seconded by Commissioner Kahnle,
all ayes, motion passed.
Industrial Use Permit. There was a discussion that Attorney Dixon talked
with the Attorney from Schuylerville and all looks ok and they will provide to
