Shift to Volumetric Billing

Since 2013, the Sunshine Coast Regional District has been working to install water meters at all properties within SCRD Water Service Areas. In the next year, the SCRD will complete water meter installations in the Sechelt area, completing the universal water metering project.

The next step following metering is the introduction of a new way of billing for water, known as volumetric billing.

Up until now, SCRD water customers have paid a flat rate for water. The volumetric billing project will introduce a new way of billing for SCRD water customers and will see some charges on your bill based on your water use. This method of billing can help encourage conservation, ensure fair pricing and cover the costs of maintaining the upgrading SCRD water systems.
