Junction City officials continue their discussions with Veolia concerning what occurred at the water plant that led to the recent loss of water for multiple days in the community. Allen Dinkel, City Manager, said they think they know what happened. "It was operator error on behalf of the employee of Veolia Water. We're digging through who's going to pay for it and we have had a lot of discussion with Veolia. "
Dinkel noted that some repair work is still being done but the plant is operational. He added that he was not sure if all of the HVAC system was up yet. "Changes are also being considered in Phase Two remodeling of the plant.
Dinkel confirmed that there are discussions with Veolia on that company making some sort of compensation to the city but the city manager was not able to release more information at this time.
