Wastewater and sewer calculation
Cal Water bills the Dixon potable-water charge. Sewer or wastewater charges are normally imposed separately by the City of Dixon or another serving sewer agency and are not governed by one Cal Water formula. The sewer agency may use actual water consumption, a winter average, a residential cap, or a fixed equivalent-unit charge. Customers should compare the water meter usage with the separate sewer bill and ask the serving agency for its current base, usage, winter-average, and adjustment rules.
Meter and infrastructure notes
The Dixon system uses customer water meters and Cal Water's periodic billing reads. The district page does not publish a fixed local AMI deployment percentage or route day; Cal Water company materials describe AMR/AMI pilots in selected districts but do not establish that every Dixon account has an advanced meter. Customers should use the bill's read dates and current/previous reads, review usage history in the portal, and ask Cal Water to confirm the exact meter technology and leak-alert capability for the premise. Cal Water reports nine wells, two storage tanks, three booster pumps, more than 35 miles of pipeline, and approximately 1.2 million gallons of groundwater delivered daily.
