The City's water production system consists <br />of 22 wells, 4 pressure control stations, 7 Metropolitan Water District connections, 7 water pump <br />stations, 10 reservoirs, and 34 flow control valves. Flow control valves are located throughout the <br />City at water production sites, such as well and pump stations, in order to effectively control the <br />amount of water introduced into the distribution system and sustain desired pressures. Flow control <br />valves are complex valve systems that rely on mechanical, hydraulic, and electric controls and <br />sensors to function properly. As with other water system assets, flow control valves must be <br />periodically maintained to ensure they operate as intended. Many of the City's flow control valves <br />are in need of rehabilitation and some must be replaced. Due to the special characteristics of flow <br />control valves, it is ideal to have manufacturer -certified technicians perform maintenance, <br />inspection, rehabilitation, and replacement services. <br />25E-1 <br />
