2017-12-05 - Service Authority Meeting Notes

Tonight's meeting of the King George County Service Authority Board of Directors went quickly. Starting at 6:30pm, with no public comment, things moved into a short report by Christopher Werle, Chairman. He attended the repairs done to the Dahlgren Waste Water Treatment Plant overflow basin. The General Manager, Christopher Thomas, gave more details about the repairs, stating the liner needed to be repaired and the estimated cost was over $100,000. After the repairs were made, the final cost came in under plan at about $67,000 with only the bill for the necessary stone yet to be received. As this bill is expected to not be a large amount, the final cost should still be less than originally planned.

Not mentioned was the Service Authority's many violations at the Dahlgren Wastewater Treatment Plant (and other locations). The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) issued notices and fines as recently as 2006. The 2012 fine was over $5,000. The newest fine was in 2014.

Thomas also stated he attended an orientation meeting with the newly elected Board of Supervisors.

The Board then went into a closed session for some time before returning and adjourning just before 7:30pm.

  1. Nice summary Neil. The 2014 fine was $1330 if I was reading it right.
