Legal Documents of Dandridge

The town will, at its own expense, make routine tests of meters when it considers such tests desirable.

In testing meters, the water passing through a meter will be weighed or measured at various rates of discharge and under varying pressures. To be considered accurate, the meter registration shall register results within the accuracy limits set in the AWWA Standards.

The town will also make tests or inspections of its meters at the request of the customer. However, if a test requested by a customer shows a meter to be accurate within the limits stated above, the customer shall pay a meter testing charge in an amount to be set by the board of mayor and aldermen.

If such test shows a meter not to be accurate within such limits, the cost of such meter test shall be borne by the town. (1995 Code, § 18-111, modified)
