Project Description: Meter & Service Lateral Replacement Phase III(MISLR3)
The project is designed to replace service laterals and meters within the District’s distribution system which were damaged in the 2018 Camp Fire. At completion, every property that had water service at the time of the fire will have a new service lateral, meter, and backflow prevention device. Services are made more resilient with backflow protection. Brass meters and concrete meter boxes replace plastic.
