Pump stations, reservoirs, wells, lift stations and treatment plants are spread out, often unstaffed, and essential to the communities they serve. BTI supports several water utilities. We design, install and maintain perimeter video, thermal and radar detection, access control and alarms for water and wastewater systems and other utility operators.
BTI designs, installs and maintains physical security for water and wastewater utilities and remote sites: perimeter video, thermal and radar detection, access control and video-verified alarms on segmented networks kept apart from SCADA, with documentation that supports AWIA risk and resilience follow-through.
Fence-line, gate and yard coverage at treatment plants, reservoirs and pump stations, with analytics that detect people and vehicles, not wildlife or blowing debris. → Commercial security camera systems · Video analytics
Where sites are dark, large or open, thermal cameras and ground radar detect intruders at long range. They hand off to PTZ cameras so operators see what triggered the alert.
Credentialed gates, chemical storage, control rooms and equipment buildings, with logged entry, contractor and visitor records, and remote unlock for field crews. → Access control solutions
Hatch, door, gate and enclosure sensors with video-verified alarms, so responders know what they’re driving to. → Commercial alarm system installation
Video, access and alarms on one platform, kept separate from SCADA and other operational technology. → Security system integration · Converged security
Device health monitoring, firmware updates and maintenance, so an offline camera at a remote well site is found fast. BTI is an authorized YourSix partner and an authorized Bosch partner (IQSIGHT). BTI also designs, sells, installs and supports Brivo cloud access control, and takes over existing Brivo accounts, so you can switch integrators without replacing hardware or re-enrolling users. → GlobalView physical security support · YourSix cloud video · Bosch security systems · Brivo access control
The Challenges of Water and Wastewater Utilities:
Water and wastewater utilities face trespass, vandalism, copper and equipment theft, and tampering at sites that can be miles from the nearest operator. Many have a patchwork of older cameras and keyed gates.
BTI starts with a site-by-site survey, then builds a phased plan that puts the highest-risk assets first and fits capital and grant cycles.
America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018, Section 2013, requires community water systems serving more than 3,300 people to complete risk and resilience assessments and emergency response plans and review them every five years. Those assessments cover physical security. BTI’s perimeter detection, access control and alarm systems turn the findings into installed, documented controls.
CISA treats water and wastewater systems as a critical infrastructure sector. Industry resources from AWWA on risk and resilience emphasize layered protection. BTI designs to that layered model: deter, detect, verify, respond. Your utility decides compliance; we supply the controls and the documentation.
Solar-assisted power, cellular backhaul, edge recording and outdoor-rated enclosures keep remote pump stations and reservoirs covered without trenching new lines everywhere.
Cameras and door controllers are network devices. BTI is ISO 27001 compliant and designs physical security on segmented networks that are coordinated with your IT and operations teams.
The same perimeter, access and alarm approach applies to electric distribution yards, municipal utility facilities, transportation depots and communications sites.
Operators see AI in headlines. They don’t see the AI virtual workforce that can watch every pump station, triage every alarm and spot trouble before a truck rolls. BTI is your Guided Automation Partner, closing that gap so automation reliably keeps your system running and secure.
Fewer false alarms at remote sites. Integrated, real-time video analytics separate people and vehicles from wildlife, weather and blowing debris. Thermal cameras and radar detect intruders on dark, open perimeters and hand off to PTZ cameras for verification. License plate recognition (LPR), pattern detection and custom-tuned analytics learn what normal looks like at each site. BTI’s NOC/SOC uses automation to triage alerts: 10,000+ alerts handled, zero missed.
Governed AI for operations. AI can help summarize maintenance logs, draft reports and search procedures. In a utility it has to be governed: approved tools, defined data boundaries, human review and logging. BTI helps you write that policy using the NIST AI Risk Management Framework as a reference, and can provide secure, utility-controlled AI workspaces.
Kept apart from SCADA. AI analytics and security devices run on segmented networks, separate from SCADA and other operational technology, so adding intelligence doesn’t add a path to process control. That fits the layered approach in CISA’s water sector guidance.
Guided Automation advisory services are included in all BTI managed IT plans at no extra cost. AI tools such as secure chat workspaces and model access are optional add-ons. → AI services · AI for business leaders · AI security, governance & risk · Converged AI and technology · AI Opportunity Assessment

Usually perimeter video with analytics, credentialed gates, hatch and door sensors, and video-verified alarms, all monitored centrally. Thermal or radar is added where the site is dark or large.
We don't write your assessment. We design and install the physical controls that address its findings and give you documentation for your emergency response plan.
Yes. We design with cellular backhaul, edge recording and solar-assisted power where needed.
No. BTI keeps physical security on segmented networks and coordinates with your IT and operations teams.
BTI holds GSA and CMAS agreements. Ask us which vehicle fits your agency.
Real-time analytics, thermal and radar distinguish people and vehicles from wildlife, weather and debris, and verify alerts with video before dispatch, so crews respond to real events.
No. BTI keeps AI analytics and security devices on segmented networks separate from SCADA and OT, and governs any AI used for operations with approved tools, data boundaries and logging.
