Justin Poehler, Technical Support Analyst, had this to say about the Crystal Ball “The Crystal Ball is an excellent security alarm monitor for water towers and pump stations. The fact that customers can hook up multiple cameras to give them a real-time look at their location, is a real “plus” for the customer. With new water security regulations, CMOM compliance and the Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002, water and wastewater utilities have a lot on their minds, and OmniSite believes the Crystal Ball will help with the process of meeting the criteria of these regulations.” Click here to read the Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002,Bioterrorism Act.
