The rate structure for CVWD’s monthly canal water service charge has two customer classes – Class 1 and Class 2 – and is comprised of three components: a gate charge; a volumetric charge; and an outside ID1 surcharge. CVWD also makes canal water available upon request to persons who request water for construction purposes, subject to the payment of canal water service charges.

A. Class 1 – Agricultural Water Customers. All canal water customers who use Colorado River (canal) water for direct potable water production or commercial agricultural activities, e.g., customers who use canal water for producing an agricultural commodity for commercial purposes including growing crops and raising animals for the commercial production and/or sale of food, fiber, fuel and other products.

B. Class 2 – All Other Canal Water Customers. All other canal water customers, e.g., customers who use canal water for groundwater replenishment including CVWD’s replenishment fund, landscape irrigation, recreation, and other activities, including, but not limited to, golf courses, hunting clubs, and CVWD’s nonpotable water program.

C. Construction Water Customers. Canal water customers who receive canal water for temporary construction purposes and pay for the additional cost of delivering that water through the distribution system. Construction water service will be limited to 180 days after which a new application will be required or service may be terminated.
