Fall is here and the City of Ione would like to remind its citizens to insulate their water meter boxes.  Insulating water meters will reduce the risk of breakage and damage.

Don’t stuff loose insulation into the meter box. This often results in a buildup of ice inside the box. Instead, put the insulation into a garbage bag, tie it off and lay it gently over the meter. This should help protect your water meter until spring arrives.
