PURPOSE:

The panels will assist in identifying potential problems within the water distribution system that pose risks to public health. DWM has utilized this equipment since 2007 since the Scott Candler Water Treatment Plant was brought online and is now at an age where the County needs to begin more significant repairs. DWM is currently using Hach products for the water distribution system; therefore, additional equipment/accessories purchased for this system must be of the proprietary manufacturer brand in order to ensure compatibility and warranty.
