3 Pipe leakage in the new IDOT project are in the range of 10 gallons per minute and there are no connections, which means that this amount of ground water is infiltrating the new line prior to any connection. Hart Engineering is demanding that all work be inspected because work is going so poorly. This engineering inspection work is to be refunded by IDOT to the City of Tiffm. The region under the Clear Creek is not suspected to be the source of the water infiltration, as the segment is one complete section and was bored work. The contractor allowed dirt to enter the pump motors, and these have been replaced. The lift station has been constructed on private property, and the project has had to purchase the property at a cost of$8, 000. 00. It appears the contractor has no workers on the project, so completion is not expected soon. Hart Engineering is submitting a permit application for a sign for their new business at 510 State Street. Leonard Roggeveen has asked to be on the agenda for a low sewer line from his home to the main under the street. This matter is placed on the upcoming city agenda. Steve Berner, Chair Margaret B.
