The six-month project, part of the city&#8217;s Automatic Meter Infrastructure (AMI) upgrade, will replace old meters with smart devices that allow real-time usage tracking, leak detection, and greater efficiency. City officials say the new meters will help detect issues like continuous leaks and pipe bursts without sending crews out manually.<\/p>\n<p>The upgrade is expected to reduce costs for customers and improve service reliability. Funded by a utility bond, this long-awaited project is one of Clemson\u2019s most significant infrastructure investments in years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Big changes are underway in Clemson as the city rolls out a new automatic water meter system for<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":40781,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15206],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40780","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-upstate-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40780","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40780"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40780\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40781"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40780"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40780"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.koolfm.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40780"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
