DESCRIPTION OF NAVAL SUPPORT ACTIVITY MID-SOUTH
WATER SYSTEM
The Naval Support Activity Water System receives its water from five (5) wells. Three are approximately 1500 feet deep and two are approximately 500 feet deep. Two of the wells have diesel fuel driven backup pumps with right angle gear drive for engine operation by lowering a sliding clutch into drive position. The engines have trickle battery chargers.
Treated water is taken from the two (2) million gallon clearwell by five high service pumps rated at 1040 gallon per minute each and pumped to the distribution system and a
500,000 gallon elevated tank.
TREATMENT PROCESS
The water plant has a capacity of 4.2 million gallons per day. It is an iron-removed design system but since turbidity exists in the three 1500-foot wells, modifications and treatment processes have been added. The chemicals fed at the plant are pre and post sodium hypochlorite at 12%, polymer for coagulation, sedimentation and filter conditioning for the turbidity removal. Compounds of fluoride are fed in the form of hydrofluosilicic acid at 23% from a 3000 gallon storage tank. Sodium hexametaphosphate is fed for corrosion control.

EMERGENCY ACTIONS FOR WATER MAIN BREAKS
The following procedure should be used for main breaks:
1. Notify Trouble Desk of break and location.
2. Trouble Desk will contact trade personnel
3. Trouble Desk will contact lab personnel that a sample will be required once repair is completed.
4. Trade personnel will prepare equipment needed for repair.
5. Isolate broken line with valves.
6. Notify (if during normal operation hours) Trouble Desk of area affected and approximately how long the customer can expect to be without service.
7. Repair as quickly as possible and take proper precautions to prevent contamination of line.
8. Disinfect as needed. Follow procedures set by AWWA Standard for disinfecting water mains (ANSI/AWWA C651-05). Procedures notebook can be found at the water plant manager’s office.
9. Blow off line at nearest downstream hydrant – minimum of 10 minutes or until clear flow. Check chlorine. If chlorine level is between 0.20 ppm to 2.50 ppm, flushing is complete. If not, continuing flushing until an acceptable level is reached.
10. After flushing line, a microbiological test will be performed within four (4) hours of repairs. The lab personnel will check chlorine level. If within acceptable level (0.2 to
2.5 ppm) a microbiological sample will be collected. Run microbiological test at water treatment plant laboratory.
11. Fill out repair from. Once test results are finalized, send copy of report to Base
Environmental Office and CFS Quality Control Office.
PROCEDURE FOR POWER OUTAGES – SHORT TERM
Scheduled power outages allow the water plant manager time to fill the clearwell and elevated tank. In the event of an unscheduled power outage, the following will occur:
1. The 500 kW 752 amp, generator will come on within ten (10) seconds of power failure.
This unit carries all five high services pumps, the 900 gallon per minute well; all controls systems to filters, chemical feeders and emergency lights. When the power is restored, the generator will switch back to commercial power and shut off.
2. In addition, if required, two wells and two high service pumps have backup engines with right angle gear drive and clutch that can be started manually. This will not be necessary until the water pressure at the plant drops to 40 psi or the clearwell drops to half capacity, unless other factors are involved.
PROCEDURE FOR POWER/WATER OUTAGE – LONG TERM
In the event of generator failure or as other circumstances require, NSA Mid-South would rely on receiving water from the Millington water system. In such an event, two valves on
North side would need to be opened. They are located at the corner of Hornet and Dakar and Memphis and Dakar. (See map for locations) These valve caps are painted red for easy identification and normally in the closed position. Open valves and then call the Millington water plant and the Installation Environmental Manager and Installation Utility Manager to notify them that the valves have been opened and again when valves are closed.

POWER OUTAGE WITHOUT HELP FROM
OTHER WATER SYSTEMS
In the case of long term outage of the generators and without help from other water systems, point of delivery to NSA residents would be limited. Water would be distributed from the reservoirs at the water plant. Residents would be informed to come to the water plant in order to receive water. Lister bags or other suitable containers could be obtained from
National Guard, or through Supply.
EMERGENCY ACTIONS FOR EARTHQUAKES
1. Protect personnel and equipment, anticipate aftershocks.
2. Make damage assessment of plant, tanks, reservoirs and system.
3. Establish communication with TEMA – See emergency call list on page 3.
4. Contact all available personnel. See page 2.
5. For emergency procedures for loss of power, see page 9. The procedure on page 9 will also deal with loss of the system and how to provide clean drinking water to the public.
6. Prioritize repairs to the plant, tanks and system.
7. Begin checking for leaks in the distribution system.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURE FOR
CONTAMINATION OF WATER SYSTEM
1. Locate and stop or isolate contamination, if possible.
2. Check all wells for contamination.
3. Check reservoirs for contamination. If reservoirs and system are not contaminated, put wells into system.
4. If unable to determine the type of contamination present, draw samples of water to be tested by certified laboratory. (See listing of certified labs on page 18 of this manual.)
5. If contamination of the reservoir is found, empty the reservoir and clean it by using the proper procedures. (For proper procedure, contact agencies listed on page 4 of this manual.
6. Check system lines for contamination and flush them.
7. If reservoir is not contaminated but the system lines are (from breakage or cross-connection), allocate water at the plant from the reservoir.
8. If it is not possible to decontaminate any part of the system, contact the appropriate
Public Works personnel on page 3 or 5 of this manual.
9. Upon receiving approval from the Public Works Officer, contact the alternative source or sources for information about location and times when customers may receive potable drinking and cooking water. Information will be distributed through local news media. (See page 14.)
Emergency Response Plan COVID -19 Addendum
In order to prevent a pandemic outbreak at the water plant the following steps should be taken. All steps are within the guidelines as set by the Tennessee Department of
Environment and Conservation (TDEC).
All BOSS Contract utility workers that support water/wastewater operations are designated Mission Essential personnel in response to COVID-19 work requirements.
All workers names are designated in writing. Essential personnel include:
Joan Fortune – Water Plant Supervisor – Lab certified for Bacteriological Analysis
Tim Turner – Distribution Operator
Robert Davis – Water Plant Operator – Lab certified for Bacteriological Analysis
Shirley Paux – Water Plant Operator
Lynn Goin – Water Plant Operator
Ralph Thomley – Water Plant Operator
Phone numbers for water plant personnel can be found in the Emergency Response Plan.
Since the water plant is a restricted area, all gate and doors remain locked. Access into the plant will be limited to essential personnel only to avoid the spread of the virus.
If an operator becomes ill, they are to stay home and call their Supervisor. The
Supervisor will notify the Project Manager, who in turn will notify the proper government personnel. The shift will be covered by the Water Plant Supervisor or the shift will be split between the other operators. In the case of more than one operator absenteeism, the Distribution operator can be used to help cover shifts. The Supervisor will also contact the State Inspector in order to keep him updated.
Increase the cleaning and disinfecting of all work areas with a solution containing at least
.0.5% chlorine and practice social distancing and proper hygiene (hand washing). All operators have the required PPE or know where the PPE is located and use them accordingly, following safe work practices. Personal protective equipment normally required for task involving water treatment include: goggles, face mask and face shields, rubber boots and liquid repellent coveralls/apron and gloves. Ensure adequate quantities of PPE are maintained.
Chemicals used in the water treatment process are purchased in bulk to insure that there is an adequate amount on hand to last at least one month or longer. The daily average consumption of Sodium Hypochlorite under normal conditions is 30 pounds. It is purchased in 800 pounds increments. The average of Sodium Hexametaphosphate used daily is 15 pounds. Five hundred pounds is the normal amount purchased at a time.
Daily average consumption of Fluoride is 20 pounds. Fluoride is purchase once every four to five years. There are currently 750 gallons of sodium hypochlorite on hand. That amount should last a month or longer. Reorder when the level is down to 250 gallons.
There is sufficient sodium hexametaphosphate to last two to three months.
Any field operations interruptions (repairs, meter reading) will be performed by the
BOSS Contractor maintenance crew. Sampling is conducted by the Water Plant
Supervisor or the Operator with lab certification for Bacteriological Analysis.
In the worst case scenario, the inability to maintain all operations, the BOSS Contractor will have a skeletal crew work at the plant until the operators have recovered. In the event that is not possible, Mid-South’s water system can be tied into the City of
Millington water system via two existing emergency tie connections.
Monitor Elevated Water Storage Tank and Clearwell levels to ensure water levels are maintained.
