Water and Sewer Report
James Wistinghausen gave his Monthly Report. He told the Board that the District received a letter from the GCWA about obtaining additional water from them. He is looking into this and will keep Board informed. He informed the Board that last week lightning struck some electrical equipment at the Sewer Plant and had some damage. He is turning a claim into the insurance company and told them that he estimates the cost to be around $10,000. He advised the Board that the 3 employees have done all the paperwork to get their licenses. They are now waiting on TCEQ to send them the documentation to take the tests. COVID-19 has slowed everything down, and hopefully they will hear something by October.
