2021 Water and Sewer Commissioner’s Report

2021 threw the water and sewer department some curveballs. Early in the year, we suffered a great
loss with the unexpected passing of our Chief Operator, Marty Frizzell. Marty had been the Chief
Operator for 25 years and played an instrumental part in meeting the needs of the Townspeople, the
Board, and the State. This was a role which he enjoyed and he is greatly missed.
Along with continuing to work around COVID and the issues that arise with processing potential
contaminants in the sewer, we continued to have failing pump stations. This is a result of the age of
the system, the pump stations are over 45 years old. In June of 2021, we put a bond vote before the
town, which passed, in order to upgrade our sewer treatment plant facility. We are hopeful to break
ground in late spring/ early summer of 2022.
Our pump stations are in great need of repair. This is due to their age as well as what is being
flushed through them. We are seeing a considerable amount of nonflushable items, including
“flushable” wipes, which are damaging to the pumps themselves and should not be in our sewer
treatment system. In the near future, we will be replacing several pumps, pipes, and tanks. Please
remember to only flush urine, poop, and toilet paper.
