Description

Leak detection and reducing leakage is critical for Watercare to achieve performance measures set by its regulators and also to meet its commitments to Aucklanders. Watercare requires a core team of expert leak detection technicians to find unreported leaks across its water supply network. Technicians must be skilled in using a variety of leak detection equipment, including acoustic listening sticks, correlators and other acoustic equipment, and must choose the right method for the conditions on each survey. Surveys are targeted using Minimum Night Flow (MNF) data from Watercare’s Leakage Management System (LMS). The Participant is expected to locate the leaks behind rising MNF quickly, so that each surveyed DMA can return to its baseline.
