It has been a while since we returned home from the AWWA convention, but I wanted to share the moment. My friend and colleague Damon Rodriguez and Eric McNeil had a chance to speak about Acustic Leak Detection in front of a large group of people.

A very special shout out to the San Jose Water group for letting us represent the company. If anyone has any questions or would like us to share our thoughts and experiences please reach out.
