O. BOX 2062 <br />VERO BEACH, FIA. 32960 <br />June 2► 1978 <br />"I-Rhard Bogosian <br />143.8 :tFtpet <br />Vero Bea ► da`32960 <br />Ue nick: <br />Aw ..i-...] wd(q-4-= ..l nt-o .• ati-oH <br />As we previously discus,ed, our <br />major concerti is that we continue to provide good :service <br />for our customers. At present we feel our service i <br />Food but we are only using one well. We have been Fortunate <br />that the rare water quality of that well has been good. <br />re are presently using one well for our water ser -;Ire and <br />chlorinaitipr the water.. This treatment is providing rood <br />water. We are continuing to try to improve our :yo. tem. <br />Wo will be add .ng an aerator and then superchlorina t. i ng and <br />dechlorinating the water in hopes that it will be even <br />better. We are also oversizing the aerator so it will <br />cause a partial sedimentation process to occur. 4e are <br />also prrnaring to add a new well to the system. <br />'The more we study the water systems in this area, and the <br />raw water quality in this area, the more concerned we become <br />with how rood our water•will be as we expand the system. The <br />problem with expanding the system is that the expansion will <br />•re4uirc new :sources of raw water and the new raw water may <br />not be a, good a:: our present water. Because of this: we <br />Would have to increase our plant treatment, possibly r-oinr <br />as far as water softening which can be quite.expensive. (One <br />-estimate for our present system as it now exists is X92,000.00). <br />It in our belief that any expansion of the system or chazige in <br />the water treatment in the system should be done at the expense <br />of those requir.izi;; the expansion and not at the expense of the <br />present user.,, of the system. These users may benefit from the <br />improvements but as much as possible their cost:, should be <br />limited to paying for the daily operations of the system. The <br />problem with many of the county', existing systems is that money <br />was not charged and :;at aside as systems were expanded to improve <br />the nuality in these systems and now when water duality <br />improvements are being demanded, the only :.ource of re%:enue <br />available io the daily water charges.to the user. This becomes <br />a major source of aggravation for everyone concerned. At present <br />the only people affected by this increased rate would be <br />Laurel.
