Greg:
As an operator, there are lots of opportunities in So Cal and you can see them on Monster or Careerbuilder. You wouldn't see much pay as a T1/D1 with no experience and probably be stuck reading meters for a few years. As an engineer, you will not need an operator certification but you...
While you might not happen to be in AZ, there is a set of standards commonly used there called MAG standards. You can download the standards and lots of drawing details from the web.
Here' the Maricopa Assn of Govts' web site:

Look in the "Top Downloads"...
You could look at a plastic relief valve, such as a Plast-o-matic RVT (only goes to 2").

There are all-stainless relief valves available from a number of mfrs. A good company to talk to is North American Safety Valve. http://nasvi.com/nasvcat.htm. They rep a...
If the pressure is not too high, you could also install a standpipe. If you know the headloss across the orifice, make the standpipe height equal to something greater than that. When water is coming out of the standpipe, you have your answer.
P.S. Put a gooseneck and bug screen at the top of...
Thanks again Bimr. You are right, that is the MCL for surface water. I have not specifically found any other MCL and until now I could only assume that it also applied to groundwater. The example you sent for NY state seems clear to me in that turbidity monitoring is not applicable to filtered...
Thank you Bimr. I believe the MCL for turbidity for systems serving >10,000 people is actually 0.3 NTU for 95% of the samples, with a not to exceed of 1 NTU. For <10,000 people, the 95% is 0.5 and the not to exceed is 5 NTU.
The problem I have with the regulation is that there is no specific...
This is a drinking water question:
The regulations are clear regarding the requirements for controlling turbidity of surface water or ground water under the direct influence (GWUDI) of surface water that is being treated by filtration processes. What is unclear is if these same turbidity...
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but the density of air varies directly and linearly with its pressure. Since standard conditions (or "normalized" as TurboTag puts it) are roughly one bar, six bar actual flow is about 1/6 as much standard mass flow. If TurboTag's process...
