Mayor Jenkins outlines SCADA and booster‑station fixes; integrator lists ~$50,000 of improvements
Summary
Mayor Robert Jenkins said reprogramming wells to run together and maintaining specialized valves reduced air issues; an integrator proposed nearly $50,000 in phased SCADA improvements to stabilize the booster station serving Mammoth residents.
Mayor Robert Jenkins updated the council on repeated problems at the city's booster station and related SCADA controls. He said staff and the new integrator reprogrammed wells to run in tandem, which prevented the booster station from outrunning a single well, and that specialized 'clay' check valves were found and serviced.
Jenkins said the integrator compiled a prioritized list of SCADA improvements that he estimated at "turns out to be, like, almost $50,000 in improvements" and arranged those items so the council can choose immediate fixes and defer other work. He asked the council to review the list and prioritize which items to undertake now and which to schedule for later funding.
