Self: TEM Proposal to Achieve SCHI Compliance

Attendees:

• Maggie Strom
• Don Hudgins
• Henry Nakayama
• Clayton Bennett
• Mike Brower

Henry, key issues:

• Packing clean
• spin up healthy balance
• electronics stability: automation and data collection failure

Clayton: How often does packing need to be cleaned?

• Monthly

Lorde and Company will have to come out to and automate the BioRem system.

We want a say in the consent decree, which is coming anyways - the sooner the better.

Maggie:

• How long does it take to replace a SWG 100?
• Can it be done by people in house?

Henry:

• We can have Diamond Scientific people visit, or we can ship them equipment.

The SWG100 gas analyzer plan clarity will help a lot.

Shelby County doesn't like the normalized use of handheld analyzers.

• Clean each BioRem monthly, cyclically

• BioRem is undersized: we might need more units.

• Standarzied media cleaning process with dedicated equipment -

  • The recommended media cleaning process causes the nozzles to go awry.
  • Compressions causes the media to smack the nozzles.
    • Remove the nozzles each time
    • Add protective cages around the nozzles - one and done.
    • Use conveyance to remove the media to physically, like surfactants, which might impact the biological treatment.

• Compression.

What is a consent decree?

Software component: Hexagon system.

• Swapping out the SWG100 every 6 months, with Diamond Sci
• Switching out the flow meters every 6 months, with Barr Environmental
• Use Tioga for reporting

These contracts allow for stability.

What metrics will we be judged on?
How often will we have deadlines?

• Have plans in place by certain time.
