Item No: 1 <br />Mat=JND7t5VVfM <br />Meeting Date: November 2, 2020 <br />Type of Business: WS <br />Administrator Review: <br />City of Mounds View staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Don Peterson, Director of Public Works/Parks and Recreation <br />Item Title/Subject: Update on Radium Pilot Study for Water Treatment Plant No. 1 <br />Introduction: <br />At the March 25th, 2019 City Council Meeting, the Council approved AE2S to perform a <br />water study and proceed with design and bidding phases for the rehabilitation of WTP <br />No. 1, WTP No. 2, WTP No. 3, and the Booster Station. <br />During the water study and testing at Water Treatment Plant No. 1 the Minnesota <br />Department of Health (MDH) brought to the attention of AE2S and Staff, that WTP No. 1 <br />had combined radium results above the regulated maximum contaminant level (MCL). Due <br />to this discovery, Water Treatment Plant No. 1 was removed from the scope of bidding with <br />WTP2, WTP3 and the Booster Station. <br />It was determined that further testing and information was needed as well as completing a <br />water pilot study in order to provide the City Council and residents the best options for safe <br />drinking water at Water Treatment Plant No. 1. <br />Discussion: <br />AE2S along with Staff will provide the Council with the findings of the Radium Pilot Study along <br />with recommendations for the necessary upgrades to Water Treatment Plant No. 1. <br />Recommendation: <br />Receive presentations and provide feedback and direction to City Staff on moving forward with <br />the plans and specifications for the needed upgrades to Water Treatment Plant No. 1. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Don Peterson <br />Director of Public Works/Parks and Recreation <br />The Nioull(s VICINVision <br />177iririn,q DCciCommm t <br />
