The metering and billing process of MARWASCO can be simplified into the following steps:
- MARWASCO provides customers with a specific amount of water for a defined fee during a set time period.
- Meter readings are taken by MARWASCO at regular intervals within a billing cycle for each region to measure the amount of water consumed by account holders.
- These meter readings are combined with per-unit rates specified in the water-tariff guide.
- The combined information from meter readings and per-unit rates is used to calculate the customer’s monthly bill.
- The monthly bill helps customers understand their charges and monitor their water usage.
- Metering also enables MARWASCO to provide customers with information on water demand and pricing.
