Campus Utility Metering and Billing
F. Mitchell Williams,
NIEHS
Abstract:
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the National
Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) jointly occupy
the 509-acre Federal campus at Research Triangle Park. Some of
the franchised utilities - city water, natural gas, and electricity
-- are supplied to the campus as a whole. The cost of these utilities
must be shared proportionally between the EPA and NIEHS.
This session will give an overview of the campus metering and
billing system. The presentation will describe the components of
the metering system, the data acquisition system and the billing
system.
