Wastewater and sewer calculation
Suburban bills the Glendora potable-water service under its CPUC tariff. Glendora sewer or wastewater charges may be imposed by the City of Glendora or another serving agency and may use a fixed charge, actual water use, a winter average, or a residential cap. They are not calculated by simply applying a universal percentage to Suburban's water charge; customers should review any separate sewer line and ask the serving agency for its current base and usage formula.
Meter and infrastructure notes
Suburban bills from customer meter readings and reports the current and prior readings and CCF usage on the bill. The reviewed Glendora system materials do not publish a uniform AMI deployment percentage or fixed route calendar; customers should use the bill's read dates, My Account usage history, and any alerts, and ask Suburban to confirm the exact meter technology and leak-monitoring capability for the premise. The SDWIS record identifies purchased treated water and active interconnections with the City of Glendora and Covina-area systems.
