WHAT APPEARS TO BE A LEAK ON ELK RD.

Manager — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 03:28:19 +0000

We have received numerous phone calls on what appears to be a leak on Elk Rd. This is a spring running down to the road and due to a blocked culvert the water is making its way out on to the road. We do however appreciate every phone call we have received and we do take every call serious regarding water. Please keep the calls coming if you notice anything out of the norm. This time of the year is very difficulte with the warmer temputures melting off the snow and alot of the water is running down the road. Once again we do take all calls serious and check on them as soon as they are received. Thanks again and we hope you enjoy your time on the ranch. Thanks Management of PMMWC

LEAK OFF 200K TANK

Manager — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 17:49:21 +0000

On Dec 26th thru Dec 27th we developed a leak off of the 200K tank which was detected by the telemitry system at the office. We are losing around 11 gallons per minute and have not narrowed it down to a certain road. We will begin the process of elimination after new years day begining to isolate roads that feed from the 200K. The roads include Elk Rd., Alexaner Canyon, Aspen View Dr., Chipmunk Way, Woodchuck Way, Beaver Circle, Windy Ridge Dr. and Windy Circle. If your cabin is on any of these roads and you or a family member was using your cabin you might want to check it. Once again if the water company finds it you could be billed for the time of the employees to find it. Thank You and have a Happy and Healthy New Year…

LEAK FOUND MORE TO BE EXPECTED

Manager — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 22:02:40 +0000

We found the leak on Lot C-20 on Running Deer Circle this was due to a meter being left on and no isulation in the meter pit with very little snow cover. This leak cost the water company a lot of man hours and well over 100,000 gallons of water. Once again please shut your meter off if you are not intending on being there. Thanks to all those who called the water company with possible leads we really due appreciate the public eye in these situations.

LEAK ON RANCH

Manager — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 19:03:01 +0000

We have a leak on the ranch losing about 40 gallons per minute crews have drove all the roads and have come up with nothing. We at first thought this was a frost plate and still could be, but we are also leaning towards the idea that it might be in someones cabin. It has been cold the last week and if you left your meter on it could have frozen in the basement. It might be a good idea to make the extra trip just to check and also spread this on to your neighbors. Monday we will be isolating valves to try and narrow it down to an area. We will be starting by shutting all of Forest Meadows off for 3 to 4 hours this should not affect your water for all day. Once we narrow it down to Forest Meadows or Pine Meadows we will start isolating valves in these areas to find the problem. Please keep in mind if it is on your property you will be billed for the water, but you could also be billed for the man hours it takes to find it.

FROST PLATES BLOWING OUT

Manager — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 05:12:26 +0000

December is here and it is cold with no snow please make sure to shut your meter off if you are not going to be there. If you are planning on being there please put insulation in your meter, we have already had two frost plates on the meters blow and run water down the bar ditch. Please be on the look out for any water running in the ditch or down the road and contact us at 801-641-0111 leave a message if it is not answered and then call 801-461-0171. If you do not get an answer or phone call back in a timely matter please contact your area rep. Thanks PMMWC

NEWSLETTER #1

Manager — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 03:51:59 +0000

Ok so here is something I am going to try and update every 3 months even though in the winter things are slow so they may be short. We are coming up on Thanksgiving in a couple of weeks so Happy Turkey Day in advance. We all hope that you and your family can enjoy your time on the ranch for the upcoming holidays. We would like everyone to know that all samples for the water system in 2009 came back non-detectable or well below the EPA standards these samples include: Bacteriologic samples, Nitrites, Nitrates, Volitale Organic Compounds (VOC’s), Lead & Copper. All samples are turned into Chem-Tech Ford in SLC, UT and results are then sent to The Division of Drinking Water of Uah. By doing these samples we are in compliance with the EPA regulations as well as the State of Utah to supply drinking water to our customers through distribution lines. Everything went well with the water system this summer with only a few minor leaks on the main disribution lines, but all were fixed in a timely matter and water was only shut off for a short moment. The winter has yet to tell with temputures dipping into below freezing with no snow on the ground please remember to shut off your meter if you are not going to be there. When you shut your meter off you lower the chances of lines freezing on your property and also the frost plate on your meter which has proved to be a pain to find in the winter time. If you do have problems please try and contact someone as soon as possible we do have a phone at the water company office that we check often for messages if we do not answer the number is 801-641-0111. If you do not get an answer please leave a message and try the water company seceratary at 801-461-0171 if this is after hours try your area rep. We had the annual meeting at the library at Kimballs Junction again and would like to thank those in attendace you should have a chance to read the minutes at the web-site in time to come. Remeber to vote for the those running for the water system board they are the ones who represent you as a shareholder. I would like to thank the current board for all of there hard work and free time they have put in to the water system. I would also like to thank the two employees (Trevor Townsend & Jody Robinson) who are always there to fix leaks and all other matters on the ranch. If you have any other imput on anything we can change that we are not doing or can improve on please email me my email can be found on the website under manager. Thank You and please enjoy your time on the ranch. Brody Blonquist/Manager PMMWWC

COLD TEMPUTURES ON THE RANCH

Manager — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 17:25:18 +0000

Cold temputures on the ranch is here and could cause problems early. Please make sure that if you do not plan on coming to your cabin for a while to shut off your meter. Crews have already found a couple of leaks on the homeowners side of the meter that has caused a very large consumption of water on there bill. Please make sure to put your meter lid and isulate your meter. If a line is frozen or a leak on your side you could also be billed for the time it takes for crews to find the leak. PLEASE SHUT OFF YOUR METER IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE THERE it could cost you and the water company.

UPDATE ON WATER SYSTEM

Manager — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 19:52:14 +0000

All is well with the water system no outages on the ranch and no new is good news. We are going to be reading meters in September this year due to proir years of early snow fall. Once the meters have been read all lids will be put on so make sure if you remove your lid to replace it back on to keep the meter from freezing. The water company does not shut off any meters that is the lot owners responsibility to shut off their own water at the street. Refer also to previous posts on insulating your meter. We hope you enjoy the rest of summer on the ranch and wish you all safe travels.
