Summary

Staten/Bolden island partners and RD staff described PG&E billing analyses, pressure‑transducer heuristics to infer pump on/off, AI‑assisted cleaning of 15‑minute telemetry, and installation of 86 siphon meters across multiple islands to support water‑balance studies.

Kirk and island partners presented progress on measuring tailwater pumping and electrical usage for island water balances and said AI tools have helped clean and visualize large telemetry datasets. Kirk showed that PG&E bills and 15‑minute telemetry are usable for identifying pump operating patterns and that a simple rule of thumb — pressure transducer readings above ~2 PSI indicate a pump is running — provides a reliable…
