BACKGROUND

Located in Eastern San Diego County, the Padre Dam Municipal Water District provides potable water, wastewater collection and treatment, water recycling, and recreational facilities.

Padre Dam serves the needs of the communities of Santee, Blossom Valley, Dehesa, Crest, Alpine, Harbison Canyon, Flinn
Springs, and a small portion of Lakeside and El Cajon.

SUMMARY

Padre Dam was able to lower operating costs and prevent SSOs by rotating SmartCover units among critical sites being cleaned more frequently than an annual basis. Data from these units helped the Padre Dam staff evaluate and adjust the schedules to improve efficiency and reduce costs. The SmartCover monitoring process has enabled Padre Dam staff to proactively observe sewer irregularities, identify blockages, and avoid spills before they happen.
