Control and Data Radio System

The water system supervisory control and data acquisition radio system.

DESCRIPTION

PROJECT ID: W 5.0
ESTIMATED COST: $30,000
ACTUAL COST: TBD
  • Replaces the city’s antenna radio system at five reservoirs, six well sites and seven booster
    pump stations
  • Work will include a radio survey to ensure all control points can be connected into the
    system with the new equipment

WHY IT’S NEEDED

The current antenna radio system is 18 years old and needs frequent repairs. Lacking a hardwired, fiber-optic cable system, the city relies on a wireless radio at each of the city’s water system sites. A typical lifespan is 10-15 years, after which repair parts become difficult to find.

Replacement will improve operations, avoid outages, and ensure reliability in the city’s critical infrastructure.
