MCWD IS ADJUSTING HOW IT CALCULATES YOUR MONTHLY SEWER FLOW AND SEWER BILL IN A WAY THAT WILL RESULT IN SOME BILLS BEING DECREASED
We are writing to inform you about a change in how Marina Coast Water District calculates your monthly sewer flow and sewer bill. This change will result in some bills being decreased while others will remain unchanged.
Your sewer flow and sewer bill for the entire year are based on your average water consumption during the winter months (December, January, and February). We use winter consumption because there is less outdoor watering, which more accurately represents the amount of water used indoors that is flushed down drains and into our wastewater collection system.
Recently, the amount of average water use in winter was rounded up to the nearest whole number, and sewer bills were based on this rounded-up number.
Moving forward, we will be rounding down when determining the winter average water consumption for your monthly sewer usage and bill.
By rounding down, some bills will decrease. Any adjustment resulting from this change will be credited to November billing statements.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we implement this new calculation. If you have any questions or require further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service team at (831) 384-6131 or email customerservice@mcwd.org.
Sincerely,
Barbara Montanti
Customer Service Supervisor
