Water District Buys Flow Meter
Glasscock Underground Water Conservation District Manager Rick Harston reported to the district’s board of directors July 20 that he bought a flow meter for the district in order to be able to measure output from water wells. It will measure from 30 to 300 gallons per minute. Check with Harston regarding its private use.
The district recently paid $13,000 as the second half of its annual share of the continuing weather modification effort operated by the West Texas Weather Modification Association. Harston says all WTWMA planes are operational. He also reported that Dale Bates, who Harston said has been central to the weather modification program for eight or nine years, has retired due to illness.
The GUWCD directors were meeting in regular session (Dennis Seidenberger absent). No meeting was held in June, due to lack of a quorum.
