Reliable access to clean, potable water and water for community fire protection is often taken for granted. Ensuring we have access to water when and where we need it requires vigilance — rigorous inspection and security protocols for treatment facilities and distribution systems are paramount.
AEGIS has recently updated four of its water utility white paper resources:
Water Valve Inspection Maintenance Program
Water Utility Operations Security Checklist
Non-Revenue Water Audit Checklist
Hydrant Inspection/Maintenance/Repair Program
These updated resources provide those tasked with water utility operations, safety and maintenance with the latest guidance on and best practices needed to:
Identify and prevent non-revenue water loss
Create an effective water valve inspection and maintenance program
Prevent intentional physical damage to water plants, contamination of water, and disruption of operations
Protect the public from hazards associated with water facilities
We encourage you to access these important safety resources on our Loss Control Resources page, or contact Laura Strowbridge by email or by phone at 201.289.0787 for more information on how AEGIS can help safeguard your facilities, water assets, employees and the communities you serve.
