## Notice

The current control cabinet kiosk is constructed from Glass Reinforced Plastic and is the original kiosk from the inception of the scheme in the early 1970's. The kiosk is now de-laminating, which is causing issues with site security & safety as well issues with water ingress. Therefore, there is a need to replace the current kiosk with a MEICA specified replacement. Also to replace existing mechanical flow meter with an electromagnetic type to allow meter readings to be taken without the risk of routine confined space entries.
