***image1***Beginning this month, Technische Werke Kaiserslautern assumes full responsibility of the water distribution system up to the delivery points, which are the water meters installed in the individual buildings located at Vogelweh Military Family Housing, Vogelweh Community Center, Kapaun Barracks, and Rod and Gun Club Area.
