Mountain Mutual Water Company -- Strategic Plan
In 2010, MMMWC adopted a 10-year strategic plan, which the Board reviews
quarterly. To review a copy, click

Mountain Mutual Water Company -- Current Projects
1. New 6" transmission line to MMWC's main water tank
Several
years ago, MMWC began installing a 6" transmission line from its wells to its
main water storage tank on the southeast slope of Rhyolite Mountain. In
2009, a hole was bored underneath Highway 67 and a new 6" transmission line routed
from MMWC's wells most of the way to its main water storage tank. Although
there is still work to be done completing the 6" line along Rhyolite Mountain
Road, MMWC now has sufficient pressure to keep its main storage tank full.
2. Installing meters
On February 23, 2009,
MMWC's Board of Directors passed a resolution
requiring that meters be installed for all of its users by the end of 2011.
MMWC has selected and obtained remotely-readable Sensus smart meters and
associated hardware and software, and is ready to begin installing them in
user's homes.
MMWC customers are
responsible for the cost of the meters and installation, which based on a
resolution passed at MMWC's February 9, 2010 board meeting, has been set at
$324.
About half of MMWC's
owners do not have meter pits. These members are responsible for the cost
of purchase and installation of such meter pits. MMWC will in the near
future put together a list of approved contractors which members may contact to
arrange for installation of the meter pits. The contractor must coordinate
with MMWC before starting work. The cost that the contractor charges for
installation will depend on the work required to do so, and is a matter to be
negotiated between the member and the approved contractor. Please call
MMWC for more information.
3. This Website
In March 2009, MMWC unveiled
this http://www.mountainmutual.com
website to increase accountability to its members, to raise awareness about
MMWC's infrastructure, budget, water delivery, water rights and supply issues, and to encourage
more members to volunteer and contribute their time and energy to make MMWC a
better company.
4. Volunteer Recruitment
MMWC's Board of Directors
is asking members to consider volunteering in a variety of ways. See the Volunteer page.
5. Inventory and asset management, and strategic long term planning
To better evaluate
MMWC's current and projected future needs, MMWC is seeking
volunteers to help MMWC implement a new inventory and asset management program.
Future Projects
6. New 6" transmission line from MMWC's main water tank to a new
central distribution hub
After completing the
6" transmission line to the main tank, MMWC plans to begin installing a new 6",
HDPE
transmission line to connect to its distribution system. This new line --
which would replace an existing 3", Schedule 40 PVC transmission line (which is
inadequate for CCME's needs) -- would go from MMWC's main tank to a
centrally-located water tank in the CCME subdivision. This would alleviate
several problems. It would increase the volume and pressure of water
feeding into several different sections of the subdivision. It would also
free MMWC to service the section of the CCME subdivision along Troy without
shutting down the entire distribution network.
7. Rules and Regulations Manual
MMWC also intends to
develop a well-organized and detailed rules and regulation manual. For an
illustration, see
Arabian Acres' Rules and Regulations.
