In order to get a flow test done for a project, the local water utility will
perform the flow test but we need to be present to "record the numbers".
Being that I have never had to do this, I wanted to ask the group for their
thoughts and recommendations of what is considered "standard operating
procedure".

I have already printed out a copy of AFSA's "Flow Test Information Sheet".
I can pretty much figure out where to put most of the "info" but would
appreciate any pointers, methods, etc that others use.  What should I be
looking for, what should I be asking for, etc.

One item that I was told a while back when requesting a flow test was to ask
for the system to be tested both directions, ie, read static on hydrant 1,
residual on hyd 2 and then switch everything around to then be able to
static hyd 2, residual hyd 1.  Guess my question is..  is that necessary or
just overkill and a waste of time?

Appreciate any pointers.

Richard
