REPORT OF ENGINEER
July 19, 1982
SEWER PLANT
The outfall pipe on inspection last year indicated there was some obstruction
material in the pipe near the end grating. Quotations on correcting this prob-
lem are being requested. It is estimated the cost should not exceed $1000.
A tour of the sewer plant by the Board of Trustees can be set up for some time
in the first two weeks in August. Possibly the Board would like to take a tour
of the sewer plant on August 16 at 7 p.m.just before the next Board meeting.
We have received some word that the DEC has changed their policy and that plants
of under 2 MGD can land apply sludge without an engineering environmental report.
This would mean there is a possibility that we might be able to land apply liquid
sludge on the Tyrrell and Austic farms this summer or early fall. Applications
are being prepared at the present by the sewer plant operator and Village Engineer.
The paving of Triphammer Rd. is scheduled to be accomplished within the next two
or three weeks. It is necessary to install 700 feet of storm sewer line in
Triphammer Rd. on the east side of the road across from Sheldon Rd. to drain storm
water which lies between the sidewalk and the road shoulder. Work on the storm
sewer line is scheduled to start July 13.
Triphammer sidewalk repair job is completed except for the application of a sealer
which must wait until the concrete has cured for 30 days and the application of
the asphalt in the shoulder and driveway to the Africana Center which will be done
after the paving of Triphammer R9.
The road ditching on the south side of E. Remington has been completed. There is
still some additional grading on the west side of Highland Rd. just south of the
corner of E. Remington that must be completed.
E. UPLAND ROAD SIDEWALK
The schedule for the construction of the E. Upland Rd. sidewalk is as follows:
Design to be submitted to County Highway Dept. for approval - week of July 12.
Expected approval and putting out to bid - week of July 19.
Acceptance of bid at a Special Board Meeting - week of July 26.
Start of construction - week of August 2.
VILLAGE HALL
Electrical contractors examined and tested the flickering of lights and circuits
both interior and the incoming lines and were not convinced that an additional
new service line would solve the problem of the flickering lights. They suggested
further testing to be done by NYSEG and have arranged for this testing to be done.
A painter has been hired to paint the exterior of 825 Hanshaw R3. for $700. The
Village will provide the paint.
