plant. The automated process and SCADA system allows for routine monitoring from <br />remote locations and the system alarms the operators whenever specifications are not <br />met. <br />Water is gravity fed from the treatment tanks to the entire distribution system. Larger <br />mainlines truncate east and west from the storage tanks, from which smaller lines branch <br />out to service various subdivisions and individual properties. Park Center Water District <br />has approximately 38 miles of distribution system lines in the ground. 95% of all <br />distribution lines are made of PVC and all recent and future improvements will be made <br />of class C900 or better pipe. Valves are strategically located to enable us to isolate small <br />areas and fire hydrants are placed at the direction of the Fire Authority. We have had an <br />active cross connection control program for almost 20 years. In 1997 we replaced all <br />meters in the system and activated a meter replacement program to make sure water <br />readings are accurate for billing purposes. Approximately 80 % of the distribution <br />system is looped and all new development requires fine extensions and looping of <br />distribution lines by the developer. <br />
