Dear Town Officials:
On March 6, 1998, the Annual Inspection of the referenced facilities were
performed by myself in the presence of Mr. Michael Tremper for the purpose of
evaluating compliance with the State's Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES)
permit and Article 17 of the Environmental Conservation Law. Copies of the inspection
reports are enclosed for your use.
The facilities were generally found to be operating In a satisfactory manner, and no
major deficiencies were noted at the time.
Your cooperation in these matters is appreciated.
Very truly yours,
