Annual Consumer Confidence Report and our website provide tips on how to reduce nonessential water use and promotes water conservation. Also, Water Efficiency Rebate Program is available when efficient plumbing fixtures and appliances are installed.

With the AMI meters installed over past years, customers have ability to track water usage via their My Utility Account portal. These assists to track monthly use and compare it to previous periods to help reduce non-revenue water loss. Also, the AMI meters help detect leaks with unusual water usage activity.
The company's water accountability program tracks pumpage, known water loss (from system processes, identified leaks, etc.) and water sold to determine monthly unaccounted for water loss. Water produced is compared to water billed. Higher or unusual customer usage is flagged when compared to customer's usage history.

Water Conservation

The purpose of the above chart is to show a general indication of how the long-term per capita water demand changes over time. The per capita water demand may actually be different than indicated due to seasonal populations and the accuracy of data submitted. Water systems that have calculated long-term per capita water demand based on a methodology that produces different results may submit their information in the notes field.

Your long-term water demand is 62 gallons per capita per day. What demand management practices do you plan to implement to reduce the per capita water demand (i.e. conduct regular water audits, implement a plumbing retrofit program, employ practices such as rainwater harvesting or reclaimed water)? If these practices are covered elsewhere in your plan, indicate where the practices are discussed here.    None

Are there other demand management practices you will implement to reduce your future supply needs?   We will continue to use the annual Consumer Confidence Report and our website to promote water conservation and Water Efficiency Rebate Program. Continue to implement water loss detection services within the distribution system.

What supplies other than the ones listed in future supplies are being considered to meet your future supply needs?   Continue periodic review of the water demand at Bradfield Farms to identify in conjunction with system growth and/ or demand changes. These actions will help to ensure timely planning and execution of system expansions/improvements as needed.

How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?   We would pursue engineering design and state approval for any changes to our water supply.

Additional Information

Has this system participated in regional water supply or water use planning?  No

What major water supply reports or studies were used for planning?  

Please describe any other needs or issues regarding your water supply sources, any water system deficiencies or needed improvements (storage, treatment, etc.) or your ability to meet present and future water needs. Include both quantity and quality considerations, as well as financial, technical, managerial, permitting, and compliance issues:
