Update on California water efficiency legislation
Some sources have incorrectly reported that California state water conservation legislation (SB 606 and AB 1668) will limit individual households to 55 gallons per day, per person, of indoor water use.
BCVWD is not monitoring your water use, setting limits or fining customers. The new statewide efficiency legislation sets average usage targets across water district service areas, but the laws do not restrict individual households or businesses.
Here are some quick facts on the legislation:
- The bills require average indoor water use across the district to be reduced to an average of 55 gallons per person per day by 2023, decreasing to 50 gallons by 2030.
- The legislation sets indoor water use targets of 55 gallons a day, per person, but the goal is spread across a water district’s entire service area – not individual households.
- The state will not issue fines to individual customers. Water districts could face penalties for violations.
- The bills establish long-term indoor and outdoor conservation goals for water agencies.
- Households can still shower and wash dishes on the same day. The water conservation legislation will not be enforced on individual households or businesses.
As always, water users should continue keeping conservation in mind for all water use. Learn more from the California Department of Water Resources at water.ca.gov/Programs/Water-Use-And-Efficiency/Making-Conservation-a-California-Way-of-Life

Owner will review all submittals and make a recommendation of award to the District’s Board of Directors based upon the qualifications of the contractor and associated cost of services. After the proposals have been evaluated, the highest ranked contractor may be interviewed. All contractors submitting a proposal will be notified as to their status in the selection process.
Owner reserves the right to reject any and all proposals and to waive any irregularity. Time is of the essence, therefore the ability of the contractor to perform the services within the time period specified will be considered during the award of the project. If Owner elects to award a contract for the services, the award will be made within 10 days from the date of the District’s next Board meeting subsequent to the District Staff’s completion of the review of submitted proposals (usually the second Wednesday of each month). Proposals shall be valid for a period of 90 days.
