on the original 1981 tax rolls. If this happens,
the homeowners in this project will have the original
amount of assessment reflected on their 1981 tax

statements would be sent to the homeowners prior to
the May ,due date for payment of the first half 1981 taxes.

� Mr, l�Jalter R. Benson
City Administrator
City of Orono
' Box 66 - '
Crystal Bay, M�� 55323
Dear Mr. Be►:son:
This letter is a follow up of our meeting of September 29 , 1980 respond-
ing to your resubmitted plan (received September 19) on sanitary se���ers
in tne City. These sanitary ser�er projects (I-Tanager Lake , II-Orchard
Koad South and III-tvorih Shore Drive) have been revised to sho�ti� alternat.e
construction for each of the projects.
� The Commissior� reviev�s and approves connections to our interceptor based
or location of existing stubs , ability to isolate and determine sewage
flow from an area, and v;hether the potential new� connection mav influence
the structural integrity of the wastewater. These conditions were con-
� sidered when we responded in our letter of September 2 to your earlier
i submittai of these projects.
In accord with our meeting of Sep�ember 29 and after reviewing the bids
� ; for the Project II system tne Commission aqrees that the direct tap
� connection to our interceptor as proposed is the most cost effective
� alternative. Detailed drawinqs on how the tap connection is to be made
1 , must be submitted for our review and approval prior to the issuance of a
� connection permit. Since the sanitary sewer system described under
Project II serves a substantial area , it is proposed to install a meter
under your contract at vr near Lift Station No. 1 in a location accessible
for routine service and maintenance. The Commission will reimburse you for
installing the pr�posed meter which meets our standards and in accord ��ith
' an aareement. Please transmit costs figures to our attention when they
� become available.
; As per our agreement the alternate in Project III is the only acceptable
' solution for service in the area of North Shore Drive. The type of pump
; necessary to pump against a sr�all uniform head is much r�ore desirable and
j less costly than one designed to pump into the high variable head of the
' � interceptor forcemain. For the foregoing reason and that this flow can
� � • i be measured on the existing Orono meter (M-429A) , Alternate I is the
� acceptable mode of service.

The Tanager Lake service (Project 1 ) connection should be made only
via a direct connection to the interceptor pipe. No connection
will be permit�ed to the cleanout manhole (OP 2�+00) as indicated
in Alternate III .
