We had an exceedance of our E.coli limitations during this morning's (9/9/26) testing from Basin 2. The count was 613.1, Limit 300. We had to re-seed Basin 2 recently due to a high loss of solids and overfeeding that resulted from the broken influent valves. Basin 2 is still re-establishing. Broken valves were repaired the third week of August. We are aware of a shock load from AgriMark Friday night (9/4) as well. It was reported that 10,000 gallons of milk drained from the AgriMark silo. While 8,000 gallons was successfully diverted, ~2,000 gallons of milk was diluted into ~150,000 gallons of EQ. It was unclear at the time how much of the milk was diverted, so AgriMark attempted to contact the Town to make them aware but the message was received days later (holiday weekend) because proper protocol for communicating was not followed.
