This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of secondary or dual water systems and metering of secondary water systems. Several approaches to metering are presented, including: centralized filtration; individual connection filters; and, innovative meter design. Important considerations are presented for economic feasibility and social and political implications. Presentation conclusions indicate that: current operations of most secondary water systems are not conservation-friendly; most meter types are unable to function in secondary systems; by using innovative meter design or filtration, metering is a possibility; and, an economic analysis should be made before installing meters on a secondary system. Includes 5 references, table, figure.
