Re: Emergency Costs to maintain water flow at the Intake.
As you know we ran out of water on December 20th, 1998.
Cop construction was hired to correct the problem. Cop comtmction worked 24 hours a
day starting on 12/20/98 through about noon on 12/24/98. On 12/28/98 Cop Construction
resumed work on an 8 hour a day bases finishing up on 12/30/98.
The costs for this emergency work $ 39259.46 thousand dollars.
The loss of water flow was critical and the City was well below our set fire flow level in
the reservoir.
It is required that we develop a permanent solution this year by the Army Corps of
Engineers.
City Of Laurel is an EEO Employer
