EPA’s Water Security Division has posted new resources about incorporating Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) into a Surveillance and Response System (SRS) to detect backflow and tampering. The resources include a two-page fact sheet and an updated guidance document about AMI. The documents discuss AMI in the context of security by explaining how AMI backflow and tamper alerts are generated and can be investigated. The guidance document provides an Alert Investigation Template that can be edited and customized in Microsoft Word by drinking water utilities. Access the documents at EPA.
