AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: June 25, 2012
To: Citizens Advisory Committee
From: Ken Vecchiarelli, General
Manager
Presented By: Staff Dept: Operations
Subject: YLWD Remote System Operations - Production Division
DISCUSSION:
The Citizens Advisory Committee has requested information and a presentation on how water
moves throughout the District. Staff from the Production Division of the Operations Department are
tasked with ordering water supplies from import water providers and bringing them into our system
in various locations at upper elevations; operating wells that pump water from the local groundwater
basin at the lowest elevations; operating booster pump stations that pump the water supplies
throughout the service areas and into local storage reservoirs; operating valves that drop water
down from these reservoirs into the homes and businesses at lower elevations; and operating
disinfection systems that maintain water quality. Staff from the Production Division will demonstrate
real time water system delivery decisions run through the District's Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA) control system and show how the water is distributed throughout the
community.
