Water Re ort A ril 2024 p , p
In April, I toured the village water plant with Jake. I took note of the well placement in and around the solar field, the interior of the main room where water is pumped from the wells into the village system, and the room where the main computer resides for remote and onsite monitoring. Jake pointed out a well that was no longer in use due to water quality. I gained a better understanding of how a more stable internet connection can provide more efficient remote monitoring. We are waiting on Archtop to install fiber to the site for a more secure connection.
