The program also aims to discourage theft or illegal connections to the city's system in agricultural areas. Concerns were raised about the city's capacity for acoustical leak detection, with staff noting they contract out this service and use more rudimentary equipment, although some staff have received training. The plan also designates the utility system supervisor as the water conservation coordinator and mentions a part-time water enforcement officer, Mike Egert, who works 18 hours per week on water conservation and patrol.
