Chem Feed Problem    
   
WWTF outfall    
When the operator arrived and discovered the problem he immediately reconnected the tubing and reprimed the pump. Hypochlorite has been added manually to different sections of the chlorine contact tank to get chlorine into the system as quickly as possible. Checking the tightness of the connections at the pump will be added to daily checks in the future.

The nut securing the chemical suction tubing to the hypochlorite pump had become loose due to vibration causing an air gab between the tubing and the pump.
