HAGUE SEWER DISTRICT ANNOUNCEMENT

We had an incident this past weekend that brought to our attention the fallibility of the auto alarm dialers at our pump stations. The auto dialers are designed to automatically call the waste water treatment plant (WWTP) operator whenever there is an issue. In this particular case, the auto dialer malfunctioned and did not complete the call as needed.

An alert resident heard the alarm and called the emergency number to inform our WWTP staff, who responded and corrected the situation quickly. A great big THANK YOU to the resident for being proactive and taking the right steps. Thanks to this prompt action, service was not affected and there was no environmental impact.

The lesson learned is: IF YOU HEAR AN ALARM at any of the pump stations, please call the emergency call number 518- 222-1464. In the normal case, the operator may already be aware and on their way to address the situation. However, better safe than sorry!

Thank you
