## Summary

Bakman Water - Rolling Hills reported **9.0% non-revenue water** in FY2025, higher than 59% of the 141 California systems that filed that year. The figure is trending worse across the record.

**The water balance is not a check here.** DWR derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so this decomposition holds by construction.

## Filed history

| 2023 | 9.0% | 121.4 | $1,310 |
| 2022 | 9.0% | 141.9 | $1,540 |
| 2021 | 10.0% | 134.2 | $744 |

## How the cost figure is built

Apparent loss is water delivered and never billed, so it is valued at the retail rate: revenue, recoverable inside a
budget year without capital work. Real loss is valued at variable production cost, because eliminating a leak saves
treatment and pumping rather than retail price. Where the filed audit carries its own cost of losses — as
DWR's export does — those figures are used directly and no rate of ours enters the
calculation.

The FY2025 loss figure: (system input − billed authorized) ÷ system input × 100, from system input volume at `Sheet1!AN1692`; billed authorized consumption at `Sheet1!AQ1692` — in `data/archive/ca-dwr-water-loss/2026-09-05-f0dfea5a6026.csv` (sha256 f0dfea5a6026881d, retrieved 2026-09-05, https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/d6cdd89e-49b0-4b1f-86ee-8b7237e5f169/resource/058ac6ca-a8b4-4f28-b6c8-11e48309f3b4/download/ca-retailer-waterlossdata.csv), read by `src/scrape/ca.ts` at eaf9ca89f144.

Volumes are normalized to million gallons on ingest; the export reports them in the unit each filing states.

Figures are as filed unless stated otherwise. If a number here is wrong it is wrong in the filing or wrong in

## What it charges

No bill is published for this system. This system did not file a complete residential rate structure — a fixed charge, at least one volumetric tier, and the unit those are quoted in.

## Compliance record

Violations on EPA's record as of 2026Q2: **7** (2 health-based).
Resolved: 4. Archived: 0. **Still open: 3.**

- Follow-up Or Routine LCR Tap M/R — addressed, from October 1, 2025
- LSL Inventory (health-based) — unaddressed, from October 17, 2024
- LSL Reporting — unaddressed, from October 17, 2024

Counted as distinct violations rather than as rows: EPA's export carries one row per enforcement action taken
against a violation. A violation is a breach of a reporting, monitoring or contaminant-level rule as reported
to EPA; it is not a measurement of the water.
