Draft 2025 Water Shortage Contingency Plan

Section 9 – Monitoring and Reporting

IRWD customers and facilities are fully metered, allowing for detailed accounting of water use in the service area. Monthly meter reads provide IRWD with a significant quantity of data for tracking and reporting actual reductions in water use in response to a water shortage. IRWD’s budget-based rates are designed to achieve the necessary reductions in water use. Each month during a shortage, IRWD determines how much water each customer has used in relation to their budget. This comparison is used to track attainment of water use reduction goals for the agency and is included in the customer’s bill to encourage compliance with the water budgets.
