“We're making a promise to
the community that if they
give money to the Heart
Association, we will make sure

POND SITE STILL VIABLE, RESULTS INDICATE
Engineers Met With Menlo Officials Friday
Pond Modification Possible
e ittt
By KAY ABBOTT
Staff Writer
—_—
The Menlo waste treatment
facility and pond site on Peach
Orchard Road will not be aban
doned, according to phase one
test results releasedplast Fri
day afternoon by Law En
vironmental during a called
meeting with Menlo officials,
project engineers and a
representative of the state En
vironmental Protection
Division.
Mayor Theresa Canada is
expected to report on the
meeting to the Menlo Council
Tuesday evening.
Preliminary results indicate
that the aeration pond will
have to be reduced by approx
imately one third its current
size to avoid the most unstable
area where a 4 by 7-foot
sinkhole was discovered on
Aug. 14. Construction of the
site was halted after it was
discovered. The project was 15
percent complete when the
stop work order was issued.
MORE TESTS
Geophysical consultant
Robert M. White recommend
ed that a ‘“‘second phase’ of
boring tests be completed at
designated areas of the pond
site before the pond is redesign
ed. According to White, boring
tests combined with the results
already compiled by the firm
will give the most accurate
assessment of the site possible.
According to project
engineer Eddie Schrock of
Williams, Sweitzer and Bar
num, the design of the pond
may have to be changed to a
kidney instead of rectangular
shape. If the pond has to be
reduced greatly in size, a more
mechanized type of aeration
might be required.
“We are trying to keep the
pond as maintenance-free as
possible so that costs of opera
tion will be minimal,”” Schrock
said. The boring tests will be
made by Sailors Engineering of
Atlanta.
HORSEPOWER
“What you will be doing is
substituting horsepower in an
aerator for surface area aera
tion if the pond has to be reduc
ed a great deal,” Schrock said.
“*Hopefully, the second phase
of testing will ensure the safe
ty of using other areas of the
site for the pond.”
Sailors E!)ngineering is ex-
Fected to begin boring tests
ate this week.
“We are very fortunate that
we found the problem when we
did,” said Peter Maye of the
EPD office. ‘“The sink hole
could have easily gone un
discovered and we could have
had the same problem as we
had earlier this year at Fair
mont.”
Maye was referring to a
series of sinkholes which ap
peared in an aeration pond in
Fairmont this year. The
sinkholes caused the waste
contents of the pond to drain
into the ground water system.
