Wastewater Treatment Project with the following persons present: Walkerton Town Board, Clyde I E. Williams & Associates (Tom Osterling and Wayne Frances), HRP (Paul Fallon), and attorney Ronald Gifford. Mr. Osterling presented a progress report dated August 20, 1984: Dear Board Members: This past month progress for referened project is as follows: Division A Wastewater Treatment Plant Construction: Construction by progress estimate as of July 31, 1984 is 91% and by contract time elapse is 95% which would indicate that the project is still behind schedule. However, considerable progress has been made this past month. If the contractor follows through with his schedule, the work should be substantially completed with the exception of the following items as noted on his schedule and our supplement thereto. 1. Receive, install and start up emergency generator. 2. Receive and install water still for laboratory. 3. Receive and install fume hood in laboratory. 4. Lime, fertilizer and seeding of site. 5. Total system start up. Items 2, 3 and 4 above are not crucial to total system start up. Item 5 cannot be completed until the lagoons are substantially filled with water. Total system start up can not commence until water is flowing through the entire plant train. This is necessary to verify wet operation, the last item of the plant train being the operation of the effluent flow meter. Moreover, until lagoons 1 and 2 are filled, an erosion problem of the lagoons inside slopes will persist. It is our opinion that the project may not be substantially completed by August 27th, primarily for the lack of completion for Item 5. To fill the lagoons, requires approximately 8 million gallons of water, at a rate of 1,000 gpm (2.2 cfs) it would take s‘/j days. Division B Wastewater Collec-

tion System: The only work remaining on this contract are the completion of lift station pumps returned to shop for adjustments and punch list items. Since the treatment facility will be ready for sewage flow on August 21, 1984, and lift stations in operation by then, according to HRP’s schedule, connections to the sewer improvements by this contract can now begin. The Town is advised to give notice to the respective users to connect to the system in compliance with the Town’s ordinance. If you should have any questions regarding this report, please advise. Very truly yours, Thomas A. Oesterling It has been noted that the roof that did not meet with approval has been worked on but has not been accepted as yet. A lengthy discussion was held on the responsibility of filling the three lagoons for operation of the plant. There has been extensive damages to the walls of the lagoons because of the erosion problem. Mr. Fallon does not agree that it is his responsibility to have the lagoons filled however the contract clearly states it is the responsibility of the contractor. The Board will now have to decide what directions they are going to follow if the plant is not ready for start up on August 27, 1984. Heemer made a motion for the clerk treasurer and the lawyer to male a call to the Army Corps of Engineers and find out just exactly what happens if the deadline of August 27 is not met. What procedures the Town must follow and what pressures are brought to bear upon the Town at that time. Greg Williams seconded the motion and the motion met with a unanimous vote of approval. Change Order A-4 (Revised geometries Lagoon #3, revised air and chlorine contact tank) was submitted to the Board by Clyde E. > Williams & Associates. It was accepted on a motion by Greg Williams seconded by Art Heemer with all voting in favor. Change Order A-5 (Roa ting Baffle deletion) was submitted to

NIPSCO FILES PURCHASED POWER TRACKING ADJUSTMENT Northern Indiana Public Service । Company on Monday, August 20, filed a petition with the Public Service Commission of Indiana requesting permission to pass on $11,317,088 of annual increases in wholesale purchased power costs resulting from higher rates to be charged NIPSCO by Indiana and Michigan Electric Company (I&M). The increased charges result from a wholesale electric rate increase petition I&M filed August 9, 1984, with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). The rates, as requested, would become effective October 7,1984. NIPSCO said it will intervene.

probably with others, in the case. As a result of the proposed adjustment, a NIPSCO residential customer using 500 kilowatt-hours of electricity per month would pay about 43 cents per month more for this service after October 7 if the adjustment is approved by the Public Service Commission. In an order issued December 17, 1976, the Public Service Commission of Indiana authorized electric distribution utilities in Indiana to adjust rates to reflect increases or decreases in costs incurred for purchased power under firm contracts from utilities after those changes have been approved by FERC. The passing along of wholesale power costs by NIPSCO to its customers is subject to the Public Service Commission of Indiana’s approval. NIPSCO purchases 400,000 kilowatts from I&M under firm contract, of which 200,000 kilowatts expire January 31, 1987, and the I remaining 200,000 kilowatts on December 31, 1987. t NOTICE I will not be responsible for any debts other than my own.
