ENGINEER'S REPORT
Engineer Norton reported on the discussion at the "Area Mayors'
Meeting" with staff from the Metro Waste Control Commission with
regard to the I &1 Study (Inflow and Infiltration). This report
indicated that 50.3% of the flow that Shorewood is currently be~ng
billed for is infiltration; of the 50.3% of infiltration, 1/3 can
be directly charged against the Metro line running through the city.
A request to Metro Waste Control was made by the city to make the
appropriate repairs on this line. Metro indicated that they felt
it would not be cost efficient to do so. It was also noted that
Shorewood's operating 1/2 of all the lift stations in the lake area is
making our sewer system very expensive to operate.
