(MENA) Mena Water Utilities will get a much-needed piece of equipment that is anticipated to curb the amount of water loss to the system.
Council approved the purchase of a leak detection system equipment and software that will be fully owned by the city, that is anticipated to cut the loss from its current rate of 29.1 percent.
That loss rate should be more around 10 to 15 percent, compared to the almost three times that currently.
Two other quotes were submitted for consideration; but, council went with the best system that will benefit the city for the long term needs.
