PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
ACTIVITY REPORT
JULY 1995
Joanne Emrick
During FY95 (July 1, 1994 - June 20, 1995), we treated 628 million gallons of waste, up from
557 million gallons in FY94 (an increase of 71 million gallons).
The by-product of waste treatment processed is sludge, a substance which requires special
disposal. The Kalispell waste treatment process produces a larger volume of sludge than other
processes, making disposal more costly. In FY95, we hauled 3,085 tons of sludge in 256
truckloads to Glacier Gold Compost in Olney. Each trip to Glacier Gold is 72 miles, and takes
approximately 2.5 hours/trip. Therefore, the cost of hauling sludge during FY95 was:
Tipping Fees to Glacier Gold: $81,259.00
Operator @$12/hr (1/3rd man year): 7,680.00
Truck Fuel: 3,686.00
Total: $92,625.00
The above figure does not include truck depreciation, truck repairs and maintenance (oil changes,
lubrication, etc.), and the cost of an Operator other than wages. Also not included are the costs of
the sludge pressing operation and the 3/4ths Operator man year required to run the operation.
It is also interesting to note that between 1/1/94 and 6/30/94 we produced 1296 tons of sludge and
paid a tipping fee to Glacier Gold of $33,750. During this same time period in 1995 (1/1/95 -
6/30/95), we produced 1692 tons of sludge, and paid $43,930 in tipping fees. During this recent time
period, the Operators have filled the trucks more efficiently, thereby reducing the number of trips to
Glacier Gold, a savings of at least $750.
During FY95, the Operators and the Laboratory Analyst carried out 1434 work orders on Plant
equipment.
Tim Berry of Morrison Maierle has been in the Plant gathering information and data for the Evergreen
sewer rate study. We are in the process of collecting additional data he has requested.
-2-
The first part of July our department started our annual fire hose
testing. Every piece of fire hose is tested annually to make sure
that it is in good working condition.
Our eight personnel that are taking the "Emergency Medical
Technicians Paramedic Course", are still very active in the course.
They are doing their clinical portion of the course by going to
Kalispell Regional Hospital for 12 hour shifts. They are going to
class once a week in the evening to practice their skills for the
National Test. Doctor Doug Smith is riding with our ambulance crew
to give them each 60 hours of Field Internship.
Respectfully Submitted,
Ted A.Main

DEPARTMENT OF BUILDING & ZONING
COMMENTS FOR MONTH OF JULY, 1995
BuildingA,ctivity
Building permits were issued for 4 foundations upon which modular homes will be placed.
Permits were issued for 13 single family homes, of which 6 are. townhouses. Once again,
the construction is primarily occurring in the newer subdivisions.
On the commercial side, permits were issued for Big R Ranch Supply on Highway 93
South near the SRS Building; for a new McDonald's in LaSalle near Ernst and for a new
LDS Stake Center on Whitefish Stage Road new Edgerton School.
Construction is proceeding on many projects such as the Whitefish Credit Union, Second
Wind Fitness and the Fernwell Apartments.
Currently under review are proposals for Phase II of Meridian Pointe Apartments,
Mountain Bank in Evergreen, Perkins Restaurant near Shopko, Applebees Restaurant near
WalMart, Vann's appliance store near Evergreen School, Glacier Mercantile near
Evergreen School, and Syth Business Park on Airport Road by Cattlemens.
Zoning:
The Board of Adjustment did not meet in July and no applications have been received for
the August meeting. Code changes and a slight down turn in building activity are likely
the reasons.
The zoning administrator was successful in having the illegally parked used cars removed
from the former Pizza Hut site on West Idaho. A number of other violation investigations
are on -going.
Just two sign permits were issued in July, and a similar number of floodplain
determinations were made. The zoning administrator has been working with the Parks
Department in the siting of the Lawrence Park .pavilion and restrooms (floodplain issues).
Personnel:
Rick Cockrell left the Kalispell Building Department and was hired by the State of
Montana.
General:
It appears that residential construction has showed a bit. Also, while there are no huge
projects such as WalMart of Shopko, there is a significant number of smaller commercial
buildings proposed for construction.
