There’s no doubt that the need for more accurate and available water use data is great. Thanks to the CA Department of Water Resources and the CUWCC for working to produce a standardized way to gather more per use data. DWR has posted its Methodologies for Urban Per Capita Water Use,
a document that shows the urban water agencies how to calculate per capita water use, baseline commercial, industrial, and institutional water use, compliance daily per capita water use, gross water use, service area population, indoor residential water use and landscaped area water use, according to the Water Conservation Act of 2009. DWR through a public process and in consultation with CUWCC shall develop technical methodologies and criteria for baseline daily per capita use, and post on its website.
For Consistent Implementation of the Water Conservation Act of 2009
