<br />DISTRIBUTION FACILlTES
<br />Central Weld County Water District's distribution system is made up of more than 350 miles of
<br />water mains ranging in size from one (1) inch in diameter to forty-two (42) inches in diameter,
<br />plus service lines, pump stations, master meters, and pressure reducing stations. The various
<br />types of main water line installed have included steel, cast iron, ductile iron, transite, and PVC.
<br />The larger diameter pipe is joint pipe with gaskets, other than the steel pipe, while most of the
<br />smaller water lines (2" and below) are glued joint pipe.
<br />
<br />The District's distribution system has been maintained in good shape through on-going
<br />maintenance, prompt leak repair, and updated hydraulic information. Along with the preventive
<br />maintenance program, the District also replaces glued joint pipe and transite pipe with PVC and
<br />ductile iron pipe when possible, reducing leakage occurrences.
<br />
<br />Individual service connections at each tap include a meter, check valve, pressure regulator, shut-
<br />off valve, and, in most cases, a remote readout. Meters are read on a monthly basis.
<br />
<br />Master meters are used to meter water to each municipality which consists of a meter, by-pass
<br />meter, flow control valve, pressure reducing valves, and shut-off valves. All major master
<br />meters are equipped with SCADA and telemetry systems which allow direct monitoring and
<br />adjustment of flow. Over time, the District plans to install these systems on all master meters.
<br />
<br />Telemetry systems are in place on all pump stations, major PRY stations, and tanks for
<br />monitoring purposes.
