CONSERVATION MEASURES
CONSERVATION
RATE DISCOUNT
A
new Conservation Rate Discount will mean a 15% discount each
month for households that are inside the cities of Little
Rock and North Little Rock, that have a single meter (not
applicable to a sprinkler meter), and that use 3 hundred cubic
feet (ccf) of water (approximately 2,300 gallons) or less
per month. This discount will benefit Domestic Customers on
limited incomes and will serve as an incentive for wise water
use by all customers. If you qualify for the discount in a
given month, your billing statement will reflect the amount
of the discount and will include the following message:
“Congratulations,
you received a 15% WATER discount for being a water-wise customer!”
DEMAND MANAGEMENT
SURCHARGE
Inside-city
and outside-city Domestic and Sprinkler customers will have
a Demand Management Surcharge of 30% on monthly usage in excess
of 33 ccf (approximately 25,000 gallons) per meter. When a
customer exceeds the 33 ccf, the monthly billing statement
will reflect the amount of the surcharge and will include
the following message:
“Your
bill this month reflects a 30% surcharge for usage over 33
ccf (25,000 gallons).”
