Water pressure blamed on aging equipment in city system
City water officials and Parkhill Smith and Cooper Consulting report the water pressure fluctuations stem from aging gear, especially electronic monitoring devices at the water tower south of Calvary Baptist Church. Replacement parts are scarce as components are 12 to 15 years old. repairs should take only a few hours once parts arrive, with manual control in the interim. The issue is isolated to equipment inside concrete vaults, not the mains, and a recent storm is not blamed.
