Environmental Issues:
- Rain Days: March 15 (1.81” ave.), March 16 (0.55” ave.), March 26 (1.63” ave.), March 27 (3.20” ave.), March 28 (4.48” ave.), March 31 (3.60” ave.). Total of 15.27 inches of rain this month. Because of turbidity issues at outfall locations (OF 13, 17, 30, 31, and 32) causing Non-Compliant conditions (defined as greater than 50 ntu above background), a Notice of Upset Condition was filed with ADEM for the heavy rain events that occurred from March 26-29 (9.31”ave.) and the event on March 31 (3.60”ave.) which caused several water quality violations for this month.
