WATER 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 CHARGE

Inside-city and outside-city Domestic and Sprinkler customers will have a Demand Management Charge 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 charge and will include the following message:

“Your bill this month reflects a 30% charge for usage over 33 ccf (25,000 gallons).”

The fee will go toward funding our Watershed Management Program, which includes land purchases, water quality monitoring, and other measures to protect our drinking water supply lakes from potential sources of pollution. The monthly fee will be 45 cents for households with a 5/8-inch-diameter meter. The Watershed Protection Fee by meter size will be, as follows:
