Configuring Trimble Cityworks Data For Water Loss Audits

Producing 6,476 million gallons of water per year requires an accurate management of water use. Each year, the City of Denton conducts a water loss audit, reporting how much water was produced and, of that produced water, how much reached our customers.

The water loss audit is a required annual report for many water suppliers. It’s a helpful and necessary report in water loss control, assisting in increasing water use efficiency, fiscal responsibility, system health, and long-term sustainability of water resources.

Our 2019 water loss audit revealed an Infrastructure Leakage Index (ILI) of 2.13 continuing within the 1<3 range since 2003. Indicators of our fiscal and system health calculated at 3.09 percent for apparent losses and 9.40 percent for our real losses. The audit is a driver for our meter testing and replacement programs and provides results from our operations and maintenance programs.
