13 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS Good evening and thank you for joining us for the Sudbury Water District s 78th Annual Meeting. I would like to briefly summarize the District s activities and accomplishments for the past fiscal year. First and foremost, we take pride in the fact that we have continued to provide reliable service and delivered high quality water to our customers at an excellent value. As you can see in this recent survey of area water prices, Sudbury s is among the lowest for a typical residential customer using 90,000 gallons per year. For the fourth year in a row our customers will not see any rate increase. The District is financially sound and continues to maintain an AAA bond rating. $1,000 $900 $800 $700 $600 $500 $400 $300 $200 $100 $0 Sudbury Water District Natick DPW Hopkinton DPW Southborough DPW # Weston DPW # Wellesley DPW ## Lexington DPW # Lincoln Water Bedford DPW # Acton Water District Needham DPW Ashland DPW Grafton Water District Westborough DPW Concord DPW Northborough DPW # Framingham DPW # Marlborough DPW ## Maynard DPW Holliston Water Wayland DPW # purchases all from MWRA ## purchases some from MWRA While Sudbury s own groundwater supplies are adequate, our withdrawal permit from the State stipulates that we put water use restrictions in place when the water in the Concord River drops below a specified threshold level, in order to reduce stress on the watershed. This occurred twice last summer, for a total of 66 days. The good news is that the District s overall usage for the year dropped below DEP s target of 65 gallon per capita per day, so that to the extent we have to implement restrictions again this summer they will be a little less severe; allowing outdoor watering except between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. The District initiated several major construction projects this year, including an upgrade to the East Street water treatment facility that will enable us to filter at a rate of 1,000 gallon per minute for iron and manganese. We also replaced the filter media in both of our water treatment plants, allowing us to eliminate the chemical addition of potassium permanganate. 12

14 In June we replaced 400 feet of water main on Boston Post Road in the vicinity of Frugal Flower and Invidia Salon, and moved the main off of private property. We also replaced 200 feet of water main on Landham Road in conjunction with the Town s culvert replacement project in the fall. Most recently, we began the replacement of 12,000 feet of old water mains and related hydrants and service connections on Dudley Road Nobscot Road, and a portion of Boston Post Road. Residents of Springhouse Pond and neighboring areas can expect to see a notable improvement in water quality when that new system goes on line. The project is progressing smoothly and we anticipate it to be completed within the next several months. We recently completed our annual leak detection investigation of the entire 136-mile distribution system, during which our contractor identified 10 leaks amounting to an estimated total of 102,000 gallons per day; two in water mains themselves, two at hydrants and six at service connections. Our field crew is in the process of making repairs as quickly as possible to eliminate that water loss. While every water distribution system tends to leak here and there we do note that each year we conduct the investigation the numbers are getting smaller. In recent years we replaced all of the residential water meters and small commercial water meters in the system with new meters with remote-reading capability. We are now in the process of replacing all of the remaining commercial and industrial meters with similar devices, such that we will have remote reading capability for our entire system. This year, in conjunction with our new website we also implemented our electronic billing system, providing those customers who wish to do so the convenience of being able to pay online. The particular e-billing system we are using has not turned out to be quite as user-friendly as we would like so we are currently looking intro alternatives. We are fortunate to have a highly skilled and dedicated staff of office and field personnel at the District who work hard to provide our customers with a high quality product and excellent customer service. Which brings me to one of the challenges we are going to be facing in the upcoming year that of finding a new District Superintendent to take over when Al Renzi retires in May of Al has been very capably overseeing the workings of the Water District since 2003, and is going to be a tough act to follow. We will be initiating the search process early next winter and aim to have a new Superintendent on board about a month before Al leaves in order to bring him or her up to speed quickly and ease the transition; this is reflected in our proposed FY2015 budget. On behalf of the Commissioners and District staff, thank you for your support and for participating in this annual meeting. We look forward to another great year. 13 Sudbury Water District 2014 Annual Report
