Hoyts Hill Storage Tank project now slated for November completion

An update has been provided by Bethel officials about progress of addressing water system deficiencies.  The town will be evaluating bids at the August Public Utilities meeting for a new booster pump station and water main extension to improve water pressure.  Plans call for having that project completed by the end of the year. 

 

The town will be applying to the state Department of Public Health for a new sampling point in the Chestnut Ridge Zone. 

 

A project is now slated for completion in November at the Hoyts Hill Storage Tank.  The work was originally supposed to wrap up last week, but the contractor had weather delays because of a rainy Spring season.  The station is currently on a by-pass and the tank is out of service.  The existing overflow pipe, which was determined to not be suitably protected with a screen or flap valve, is not being used.  Bethel requested an extension of time of the completion to November 1st. 

 

Bethel received Well Use Approval for some water wells in June.  Inspections of clearwells were done in May.  The Town entered into an agreement with the state Department of Public Health to correct deficiencies related to the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies.
