This book discusses the utilization of water conservation-oriented
rates (WCORs) to foster both sustainability of water provision and
environmental stewardship, especially during periods of drought.
WCORs are designed to promote conservation through such rate
mechanisms as excess surcharges (ES), drought demand rates (DDR),
inclining block rates (IBR), seasonal rates (SR), and time-of-use
rates (TOU), and in a manner that is sensitive to regional,
physical, and population/user characteristics. This report looked
at states' experiences with water conservation-oriented rates under
both normal and drought conditions, and showed how states and
utilities have coped with the social and economic implications of
their implementation.
