| Project #8056, Meter Improvements | |
Description: This improvement project will upgrade MCES’ ability to measure flows for billing, operational, and planning purposes and standardize meter equipment at similar facilities. Meter improvements include meter rehabilitation or replacement, planning meter installation, and new meter installation. |
Accurate flow metering is the basis of the MCES' billing system. It's essential that our customers trust the reliability and accuracy of the flow metering system. The project provides a systematic approach for capital improvements to the flow metering system. Increases in flow, greater emphasis on capturing peak flows stemming from MCES’ infiltration/inflow program, normal facility rehabilitation needs, and the need for additional flow metering locations for system planning purposes are driving this meter improvements project.
