Measurement of Water <br />A. The parties recognize that continuous and accurate measurement of water <br />deliveries to and from the Regional Water System and maintenance of complete and accurate <br />records of those measurements is necessary (1) for the costs of the Regional Water System to <br />be allocated in accordance with this Agreement, (2) for implementation of other provisions of <br />this Agreement, and (3) for effective operation and maintenance of a water system serving a <br />large urbanized region. <br />B. It is the responsibility of the SFPUC to obtain and record these measurements. <br />To do so, the SFPUC shall install, maintain and operate measuring and recording equipment at <br />the following locations: (1) inputs to the Regional Water System from all water sources ("System <br />Input Meters"), (2) internal flow meters to support operation of the Regional Water System ("In - <br />Line Meters"), (3) deliveries to the City at the San Francisco -San Mateo County line ("County - <br />Line Meters") and to three reservoirs in San Francisco ("In -City Terminal Reservoir Meters"), (4) <br />deliveries to SFPUC Retail Customers located outside the boundaries of the City, and (5) <br />deliveries to the Wholesale Customers, as described and illustrated in Attachment J. <br />C. The SFPUC shall inspect, test, service, and calibrate the measuring and <br />recording equipment installed at the locations described in subsection B and will repair or <br />replace them when necessary, in order to ensure that their accuracy is consistent with <br />specifications provided in Attachment J. <br />D. The SFPUC shall continue to contract with a qualified independent metering <br />consultant to perform periodic inspection, testing, servicing and calibration of the County -Line <br />Meters, the In -City Terminal Reservoir Meters, and the System Input and In -Line Meters <br />described in Attachment J, as well as the portion of the SFPUC's Supervisory Control and Data <br />Acquisition (SCADA) system that utilizes the flow signals produced by that measuring and <br />recording equipment. The method, schedule and frequency for calibration and maintenance of <br />the County -Line Meters and the In -City Terminal Reservoir Meters are specified in Attachment <br />J. The SFPUC shall provide copies of the metering consultant's reports to BAWSCA. <br />21 <br />15118728.1 <br />370 <br />
