CITY OF RIESEL

This is the procedure for reading a meter in a box that is filled with water. This was recorded 12/20/2011 by Daryl Uptmore and Steven Wetzel

12/20/2011 - This is an actual meter reading done in December of 2011 and this shows how the meter boxes are filled with mud and water and must be pumped down to read the meters, in many cases. As soon as it's pumped down and the meter is read, the water and mud seeps right back in filling it up almost immediately. There is another technique where a site glass/flask is used to read the meter through standing water as well.
