As a result of GMW’s work to make pricing and billing easy to understand and reflect the true cost of providing services, surface water and groundwater diverters are now seeing changes to the amount of their fixed charges accounts.
These pricing changes will ensure the cost of providing services to diverters is shared proportionately and fairly across all surface water and groundwater diverters.
This means most medium and large diverters, who in the past have paid a greater share of the cost to provide services to diverters, will see decreases in their fixed charges accounts during our 2016-2020 Water Plan period.
At the same time, most small diverters will see increases in their fixed charges accounts. These increases reflect the true cost of providing services to small diverters.
