(Rain gauges will assist with the inflow and infiltration (I&I) in regards to the City’s sanitary sewer system, and assist Staff with monitoring the functionality of the infiltration basins that were installed with the street projects.) Funding will be taken from account 700-4823-7030 (Water Fund), with a 2016 budget of $31,958.00 for the SCADA system upgrades.
