Wholesale Water Service


For Wholesale Classes, a 5-step base-excess use structure has been developed. The monthly base amount for Wholesale Class customers is equal to 90% of a customer’s annual average usage. Increased unit rates will apply as usage exceeds each customer’s base amount. Actual monthly water usage will be billed according to the following tables:
