community. View Full Screen How to Care for Your Storm Drain Caring for your storm drain is simple!
The best time to check on your storm drain is before and after a heavy rainfall, before the snow
melts and when trees lose their leaves. Check to make sure your storm drain is clear of leaves,
debris, and litter. If your storm drain is blocked, use a rake, broom or shovel and dustpan to
clear leaves and debris away from the storm drain. Avoid pushing leaves and debris into the storm
drain or onto the street. Once the storm drain is cleaned, the water can flow freely into the storm
drain and prevent pooling water or flooding. Your safety is very important to us. If you cannot
clean the storm drain because it is unsafe, already flooded, frozen, or for any other reason please
call Service Regina at 306-777-7000. ...

Water Meter Upgrade Project
ood with a street and houses. “If you would like more information about the Water Meter Upgrade
Project, or learn water conservation tips, visit our website at
Regina dot C-A slash water meter”. Text appears across the screen with a link to
Regina.ca/watermeter. *City of Regina outro sound* The Regina logo appears in the middle of the
screen. Have questions about the water meter upgrade project? Find answers here! Do I have to pay
for the new meter or the installation? There is no charge for the meter or the installation. How
will this impact my water bill? The upgrade project will not cause an increase in water utility
rates. The cost of the water meter replacement project has already been budgeted in the City’s
5-year capital plan approved in 2023 and will be funded out of the Utility Reserve. However, as
older meters tend to under-register the amount of water that is going through them, it is normal
that a newer meter will more accurately measure the water passing through it, resulting in the
possibility of receiving a higher monthly bill. Can I opt out of the installation? The water meter
upgrade is mandatory, and all properties will need to upgrade the infrastructure. Why does it take
three years to do this work? With more than 76,000 water meters to be upgraded, the timeline for a
project of this size is as expected. For each water meter in service, time is needed for the
customer to book an appointment, gain access to every property, as well as enough time for the
technicians to complete the work. Why is the project schedule divided by wards and why doesn't it
start with Ward 1? The work schedule was developed considering a number of factors such as billing
cycles, how neighbourhoods cross ward boundaries and ease of communicating to residents. Many
residents are already familiar with the ward boundary system, and it’s easily searchable on thewebsite. Why is my ward showing “Complete”, but I know my meter wasn’n
t upgraded yet? The “Complete” status demonstrates a completion rate of 98 per cent or greater of
meters upgraded within the ward. However, there may be a few properties that are still considered
non-compliant. If that is your property, contact our contractor, Neptune Technology Group to book
your upgrade appointment. Who is responsible for booking the upgrade appointment – the landlord or
tenant? Information about the water meter upgrade will be sent to water utility customers. I live
in a brand-new home (within the last 5 years or so) do I still need this upgrade? Yes. All water
meters currently installed in homes and businesses are part of an aging meter reading system that
is reaching the end of its lifecycle and due for replacement. What is the difference between this
new meter and the old one? Currently, City staff drive around the city to gather digital reads from
outside all properties. The upgraded infrastructure will make that unnecessary. Going forward, the
meter from your home will send the water reading to the transmitter wired to the outside, and the
transmitter will send that reading to the City. Eliminating the use of meter reading vehicles will
result in a reduction of about 10 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per year. What’s the
benefit of these new meters for the City? The new meter system will help the City increase
efficiency and improve operations through the ability to investigate, diagnose and solve water
distribution problems, as well as provide more insight into customer use. How does the meter send
information to the radio transmitter on the outside of the house? The meter in the basement is
connected to the transmitter attached to the outside of the home through a wire, similar to an
internet, cable, doorbell or telephone line. Does the meter constantly send signals to the radio
transmitter through Bluetooth? No, the water meter has no wireless signal capability and is not
Bluetooth. Information is sent regularly through the fixed wire to the radio transmitter on the
outside of the property. Is the radio frequency emitted by the transmitters safe to have near my
home? The radio frequency (RF) waves from these meters are lower than what is generated by cellular
telephones and other common household appliances like a garage door opener. In addition, they emit
for very short times in the day and are well below Health Canada and Industry Canada regulations.
What do data collectors look like? The data collectors are like old tv antennas. Some are attached
to existing light posts while a majority will be free-standing poles, like flag poles, and can
reach a maximum height of 45 ft. What do the data collectors do? Data collectors are a critical
component of the system and are how the upgraded meters and transmitters “talk” to the City’s
system. The data collectors only transmit water consumption information during scheduled time
periods. Will customer information be safe if it's being transmitted wirelessly? The City applies
the same privacy protection standards as the metering system that has been running since 2004. Only
encrypted meter readings and meter identification are transmitted, not your personal information.
The City complies with Saskatchewan's privacy legislation. Is there a risk of meters catching fire?
No, there is no risk of fire with the new water meters or radio transmitters as they use a low
voltage DC battery source. The units themselves are completely sealed and all external electrical
connections will be sealed and insulated. The City’s new meter upgrade project is unrelated to past
programs implemented by other utilities. What is the City doing with all the old water meters? All
existing meters and equipment will be removed and recycled, and this is part of the contract with
Neptune. What will the new online customer service do that the current one can’t? The new online
service offers many benefits for customers, including enhanced water consumption information. This
can help customers conserve and manage water use, as well as detect water leaks. In addition,
improved customer support with timely meter reads and electronic notifications about planned water
outages. Post-Installation Inspections It’s important to ensure that Neptune is completing the
upgrades according to contract standards. Diameter Services is managing this large three-year
contract on the City’s behalf. Diameter is working with Neptune Technology Group who are completing
the physical upgrades to all water meters in Regina. Will all properties be inspected? No, not
every upgraded meter will be inspected. How will I know if my property will be inspected? Within
one week after your installation is complete, a Diameter Inspector may knock on your door and
request to do an inspection. How will I identify the Inspectors? Diameter Inspectors will carry
both a City of Regina and Diameter ID badge with their photo and name clearly displayed. They will
also wear branded uniforms and have a company logo on their vehicle. What should I expect during
the inspection visit? The Inspector will visually inspect the newly upgraded water meter in the
basement and the transmitter installed on the outside of the property to validate that the work
completed by Neptune Technology Group meets the project’s standards. Inspections will require
approximately 15 minutes to complete their work. Should any concerns be identified, the Inspector
will advise the resident and notify Neptune Technology Group. If necessary, Neptune will book a
follow-up appointment with the utility customer to resolve concerns and ensure the consistent
standard is met. Who should I contact if I have any concerns? For any concerns regarding the
installation, please contact Neptune Technology at the number provided in the letters, on the
information sheet, or provided following the installation.
