OLD BUSINESS
  1. Paramount Point
    Ted Schultz provided an update on the Paramount Point project.  The lines have been installed and will be filled this week for Phase 1.  The lines will be pressure tested and inspected.  The contractor has been doing a good job according to Ted.  The system is expected to be fully operational by mid October.  Ted informed the board that the infrastructure needed to be updated to include a new well house and possibly a water storage tank.
  2. Managers Report
Don Peterson has hired Barb Benson to do the water billing.
Don informed the Board that he will have Qualified Presort Company mailing the bills out starting in September.  Barb has setup the files for the company.  Will be adding Spring Creek and Rushmore Ranch in the future.  A sample billing document was presented and reviewed by the board. The billing document will allow the SBHWS to add information to the bill and have a return envelope enclosed as well.
The monitoring well at the trailer site is providing 300+ gallons per minute.  We are currently waiting for BHCOOP to bring in 3 phase power for the pump and when completed, the pump test will be started.
The standby generator pads have been poured and should have the generators setup in September.
Don met with Jesse Vrooman and completed the exit interview for the 2016 audit.  Jesse also spoke with Ted Wick and John Beard.
Maguire Iron will be providing a quote for inspecting the underground tank by the trailer.  They will be using an ROV to inspect the tank alleviating the need to drain the tank.  This should be completed this fall.
