Meter Crew
The meter crew provides a number of services related to the metering and billing of the utility system. All water and sewer system meters are read monthly. Maintenance of the metering system is also the responsibility of this four-person staff.

Mr. Eric Boykin, meter crew leader, also supervises the EPA and DHEC mandated Cross Connection Program. This program requires installation of backflow prevention devices and annual checking to prevent contamination of the public system.

Water Distribution
The water distribution crews ensure continuous operation of the water system. They are responsible for installation of new water service connections, relocation of water mains, service connections, and fire hydrants. In each category, the work effort varies depending on the depth and size of the main or service line, its location and the length of service requested. The crew’s primary activities are repairs of water mains, service connections, valves and hydrants. Water distribution personnel are on-call 24 hours a day.
