City Water Light and Power could soon be gearing up for a major computer overhaul that will help bring the utility into compliance with new federal cyber-security standards.
An ordinance on the debate agenda would update training software, supervisory systems and other alerting operation systems for the utility.
The new regulations from the North American Electric Reliability Corporation also call for updated cyber-security measures provided by the nearly $1.2 million update.
CWLP Chief Engineer Eric Hobbie says that the new technology would help mitigate any issues that could lead to brownouts.
