View & Pay Your Utility Bill : Wastewater (Sewer) Averaging
WASTEWATER (SEWER) AVERAGING
The BCMUD monthly water bill includes a fee for wastewater (sewer) service. The wastewater fee is calculated using a resident’s average water consumption during the months of November – February. The wastewater fee for new residents without water use history is calculated on a 7,000-gallon District average. Conserving water during this time period may help lower residents' monthly wastewater fees. The winter months are used in the calculations to save residents money since water usage is typically lower during this time.
CAN I REQUEST A WASTEWATER (SEWER) AVERAGING ADJUSTMENT?
A resident may request a wastewater (sewer) averaging adjustment if there was a water leak or a swimming pool was filled (10,000 gallons or more) during the months of November – February. To request an adjustment, fill out and turn in the Wastewater (Sewer) Averaging Adjustment Form, and we will review your request.
All wastewater adjustment requests must be submitted by May 31 of each year for consideration
