Geocache Description:

NEW COORDINATES
I have moved the cache site as it disappeared from the previous a couple of times.
The cache is still at the pump station, with no trade items or writing implement so please bring your own. Please ensure you place it back exactly where you found it, this cache has a history of disappearing.

This is the 1st in a series of eight caches at pump stations found all over the city. These caches have been placed with the knowledge & consent of the City of Abbotsford Engineering Dept.

The cache is located near the Mt. Lehman booster pump station. There is no need to enter the fenced area of the station.

The primary source of water for the City of Abbotsford and the District of Mission is Norrish Creek, with back-up provided by Cannell Lake and 15 local ground water wells. The back-up sources are typically used to augment peak water demands during the Summer, and in Spring and Fall when storms cause Norrish Creek to become too cloudy or muddy to use.

Water is supplied through approximately 80 kilometers of transmission mains between the Norrish supply to various distribution points (reservoirs and booster pump stations). The City of Abbotsford maintains and operates approximately 853 kilometers of water mains, 15 individual pressure zones, 12 reservoirs, 10 booster pump stations, and eight pressure reducing stations.
