Attention Water District
Our municipal water system now has a new Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) are in place now. It went online on August 6th. Accurate measurements of water tower level, chem feed pump, new digital flow meter and a cellular output are all part of the system. It controls start-up and off for the well pumps. Alarm conditions are sent to the Water Operator should they arise. We will be working on some minor bugs in the system, but for the most part, everything is running according to specifications.
Thank you for your patience.
