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!”

(approximately 25,000 gallons) per meter - See monthly usage charge table above. When a customer's usage exceeds 33 c.c.f., the monthly billing statement will include the following message:
