First Tier Usage Block
Effective July 1, 2017, the Tier 1 usage block is calculated by using the highest number of the following three factors multiplied by the number of days in the billing period.
- 88% of the adjusted tier allotment created during the shortage year's average daily winter water use of fiscal years 2007, 2008, or 2009
- 88% the average daily winter water use of December 2014 through March 2015
- Minimum of 24 HCF per month
New customers that have not established a first tier usage block are billed at the Tier 1 rate until a first tier usage block is established from the prior year's December through March consumption.
For specific tier water allotments, customers can log in to their account or call 1-800-DIAL-DWP (1-800-342-5397).

During the High Season months, Schedule B customers may be eligible for reduced bills under General Provision N if their consumption for each of two consecutive High Season monthly billing periods is more than 200% of their winter average consumption (December through March) and is also at least 26 HCF above their first tier usage block. Customers that qualify are allowed 95% of their usage at the Tier 1 rate. The Provision N application includes a self-certified water conservation audit.
