The State of North Dakota Division of Municipal Facilities inspected the City of Kramer Lift Station, Landfill, and Lagoons on 2 June 2025. The report was received on 15 July 2025.
Lift Station: no problems reported. However the inspector, Vance Wingerter, Environmental Scientist, ND Division of Municipal Facilities noted in discussion that the air vent pipe should have a screen over the opening. This has been corrected.
Landfill: no problems reported. However the inspector, in discussion noted the city had identified the landfill sign as not meeting NDAC. He agreed but was not overly concerned as the current sign meant the intention/ We are in process of contracting a new sign.
Lagoons: multiple problems. The city had previously, as noted by the inspector, reported all of the issues with exception of dike erosion and the requirement for repair. As the inspector for the city, I did not possess enough knowledge on dike structure to recognized the slumping taking place on the dikes. See the two page report below. With exception of the slumping, all other issues are being corrected.
