FYI –
I have the O&M Volume 1 manual that I will bring back tomorrow. I cannot find any info on the warrantee. Hopefully we have another manual that is from Westech specifically. I did see a few binders for the DAF that was added at the same time.

Jennifer,
Great. I will send you a work order to perform the initial inspection and develop options and recommendations.
Thanks, BobS

Hi Bob,
I have attached all sections of the Westech Gravity Filters O&M manual, with exception to the Accessory Equipment section. I do not see any information anywhere on warrantee, which I would expect it to be found here.

Jennifer,
The problem you’re having seems to be fairly common with steel tanks, but not usually this soon. They were installed in or about 2007, correct?
Traditionally, the sand is vacuumed out and the inside inspected. If the structure is found to be sturdy enough, seals are replaced, surface sanded down, patched, and re-coated.
Newer materials, such as Composite Fiberglass Tanks may be cost-effective, especially if more than one is leaking.
More soon, Thanks, BobS

Jennifer,
Questions:
1. What is your current & projected wastewater flow?
2. The 2007 design shows a Peak Day Flow Design capacity of 8.5 MGD for 2015, with planned capacity of 10.3 MGD by 2025. Were all components for 2025 constructed?
3. Are you currently meeting your effluent quality limits?
4. Are there leaks from only 1 of the Sand Filters or more?
Thanks, BobS

Hi Bob,
Here are a few photos of the area around the gravity filter, just after the leak was discovered.

Hi,
Per our phone conversation, attached is the full plan set of the WWTP Improvements made in 2007. These plans include the construction of the sand filters. Filter #1 is in need of the repairs.
