DISCUSSION:
Physical security for water and wastewater utilities is crucial. Water and wastewater facilities are designated as critical infrastructure by the
Department of Homeland Security and are vulnerable to physical threats which could have significant consequences for public health, safety, and
the environment. This project will focus on enhancing physical security of critical infrastructure across the utility including water treatment plants,
wastewater treatment plants, and offsite assets such as storage tanks, pump stations and lift stations. The scope includes repairing and replacing
fencing and gates to secure facility boundaries, surveillance cameras, advanced intrusion detection systems and access control. These security
upgrades will be designed to provide a comprehensive, integrated security solution that safeguards both water and wastewater operations and
their offsite assets from potential physical threats and unauthorized access. Additionally, the system will incorporate remote monitoring capabilities
for real-time oversight and rapid response to security events.
