I’m still trying to understand this water meter installation process. Why is it that I had to have five separate inspections to replace an existing driveway, but the contractors who are putting in these meters seem to have almost no supervision or regulation whatsoever? I have watched their progress over the last few weeks. They will be at our house soon. We have done multiple projects to our home over the last 35 years and have heard consistently about “not disturbing the dirt because of erosion…” forever. But, over 3,000 holes in the ground doesn’t disturb the ground or affect compaction? Of course, we are not happy about the meters, but we are far more concerned about the apparent lack of consistency.
