Mr. West, Chairman Environmental Control Coamaittee, reported Committee net on May 2, 1977, all Committee Members present, including the Administration, and reviewed following: 1) xeviewed the sewage plant thru-put which had been plotted for us for the past several years and would like to point out that in March of 1977 that the average flow thru the glans was 8 million gallons, remembering that the plant capacity as designed was 9 million gallons. We know that that was a wet month and there was considerable amount of moisture in the ground and therefore some flowed thru but thinks everyone should understand that there are tines for a whole month at any rate that we come pretty close to the present capacity; 2) request by the Service Director to expend the amount of money that is in the budget to make repairs to the sanitary sewer system. We have a t.v. truck setup that goes through and determines where there are leaks sad the swell ones they can repair right on the spot. Later on will request legislation authorising the taking of bids and the expenditure of that amount for maintenance and repair of the sanitary sewers; Along that line the Service Director has agreed that he will submit to Committee prier to the passage of this legislation the streets and the areas which are to be repaired this year so all of Council will be so advised; 3) discussed smoke testing and have asked the Service Mrector to provide Committee with a schedule for smoke testing by streets fox the coning Suaa~er; 4) discussed garbage trucks end as previously brought out, they are behind on their pickups on sons of the weeks. Thera are two reasons: during the Spring people tend to through out everything they have accumulated in the Wintertime ao the trucks become overloaded; and the fact that we have older trucks at~l they are broken down. Bids have bean received on trucks; have not decided c~afortunately which is the lowest bid because of the complexities of the bids, etc., but Co~asaittee strongly recommended that the Board of Control act on this as soon as passible so that we can get the trucks as soon as possible; 5) discussed tree planting progxa~t: Spring came so early this year that they did not expend all of the funds of $1,000. which was authorised; but in discussing this with the Service Director he estimated that if we were to plant all of the replacement trees that are needed next Fall he would need approximately $2,500. Committee jointly with the Finance Committee has agreed to make every effort to provide that money so that we can once and for all catch up with the replacement
