    Need to do a survey on what others are paying for reclaimed water. Please state what you pay and where you are located.

    We are currently paying $.89/1000 gallons, with a price increase to $.92/1000 starting September 1.

    Your input is appreciated.

    Hi Andy,

    Hope this makes you feel a little better about your upcoming increased water cost. We own and operate a desalination plant and our cost is around $5/1000 gallons. With our new solar farm coming on line next month we hope to get the cost down closer to $1.00/ 1000.

    Regards,

    Andy-

    .21/1000 gal. from one utility here in the hood, just heard that another utility near us charging .31/1000 gal. for reclaimed H2O.

    On another note, Todd showed me the GoPro video you recently did, nice job. Hope all is well with you.

    Wags

    If my RO plants go down and I can't make water then that is what I pay. It is a back up, but still is ridiculously priced.

    $1.63/Ccf. Pretty pricey, our water cost has risen nearly 45% since I started here in 2005.
