RE: Status on Lift Station Odor
Dear Mr. & Mrs. Wright,
In response to your letter, the Coppell Utilities Division would like to bring you up to date on the
operation of the Deforest Lift Station. We appreciate this input due to the fact that it helps in
making changes in station operations to reduce the odor.
Staff has experimented with different techniques to reduce the odor at the station, several of
those are listed below:
· Treating with ozomatic control twice a day Monday through Friday and once on
Saturday and Sunday.
· · Rework Pumps to ensure peak performance.
· Installed new lid on wet well.
· Washing down wet well with a grease cleaning solution.
· Provided deodorized ventilation over the drywell & wet well vents to mask any
odor that may be emitted.
Please call to report any odors to (972) 304-3545 and let us know the time and date. We will
continue to monitor this and would like to reiterate that we will not be able to alleviate the odor
completely, but with help, we can continue to monitor the progress of changes made at the
station.
If you have any questions or concerns please call me at 304-3545.
Sincerely, ~/~

RE: Lift station Waterford Park
Dear Ken:
It has been awhile since the lift station has smelled but the last few nights it has gotten
increasingly worse. No one contacted me the last two times I wrote and asked what the
status was and how you all believed it was doing. I am hoping you will advise me that it
is under control and wa won't have to deal with the smell. What happens when it starts
up like this??? I would like an answer this time.
Thanks.
Sincerely,
CandE Wright
