Understanding Your Bill

The current rates are broken into six user categories:
  1. Single-family Residential
  2. Duplex Residential
  3. Multi-family Residential
  4. Commercial
  5. Industrial
  6. Irrigation

Effective October 1, 2020, the average single-family residential customer in Long Beach using 10 billing units of water each month would be billed approximately $54.15 per month. For 10 billing units of sewer charges each month, the average customer would be billed $10.32 per month.

LBWD’s Cost of Service and Rate Study Report includes the development of potable water, recycled water and sewer rates that are both fair and consistent with Proposition 218 based on the most current industry information available. The report summarizes the key findings and results related to the revisions of the tiers, rates, daily service charges, and customer impacts. To read the report click here.
