The current sodium hypochlorite system has beenoperational since May 2006.Transfer to the current system was very smooth with theswitchover occurring during a normal work day.The current system has eliminated the possibility of adangerous chlorine gas leak that could have seriouslyinjured operators and the public located near the WTP.Proper ventilation of the sodium hypochlorite storage tankshas decreased the odorous presence of chlorine in thestorage/feed area and provided a better environment forplant operators to work in.
