Hello Blackland Water Supply Corp (BWSC)

BWSC is pleased to inform you that we are at our final phase of the water meter replacement program.  BWSC will be replacing your old 3G water meter with the new AMI ultrasonic Sonata Allegro water meter.  This will enhance accuracy, improve leak detection, and empower you to manage your water consumption along with your budget while utilizing the App.  PMG is the approved utility contractor that's planning to start the upgrade process in August 2025.

Project Details:

  • Phase 2 Meter Replacement starting in August 2025.  The utility contractor PMG will start with cleaning and clearing all debris from the meter box area.  After all scheduled meter replacement locations have been cleared the utility contractor will then schedule to come back to change the water meter with the newly updated AMI water meter.
  • The Duration of Meter Replacement Change-outs will be scheduled between the August and September billing cycle.

Key Benefits of the Upgrade

  1. Enhanced Accuracy: The new meters will provide precise readings, ensuring that your water usage is recorded accurately.
  2. Improved Leak Detection: The advanced system will help identify leaks promptly, conservicng water and preventing high water bills due to undetected leaks.
  3. Better Consumption Management: With real-time data available, you can monitor your water usage throughout the month and make informed decisions to manage your budget.

About the AMI Network

The new AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) network is a two-way communication system that automates the collection of detailed metering information.  This system allows for real-time, on demand data interrogation, providing you with up-to-date information on your water usage.

Change-Out Process

  • Notification: You will be notified door-to-door by a PMG employee or BWSC staff.  A door hanger will be left with instructions on the change-out process and how to join the MY WATER ADVISOR app. 
  • Service Interruption: Water service will be turned off for approximately 10 to 15 minutes (possibly longer depending on meter box condition/situation) per location during the meter installation.

Post-Installation: If there is any air or cloudy water in your lines after the installation, simply flush an interior sink or tub to clear it.  This should take only a few seconds, no more than 5 minutes.  If issues persist, please call BWSC @ 972-771-6375 for assistance.
