How User Rates Charges Are Calculated
Water Consumption:
To calculate your water consumption charge we take your water consumption in cubic metres (converted into gallons per day) and multiply it by the tiered water rates.

August 5 reading: 2502 cubic metres (difference of 112 days)
Total cubic metres: 116(M2)
2502(M
2) - 2386(M
