Cws Kc King City

What Cws Kc King City filed with DWR about the water it produced and the water it billed for, 2016–2024 — and what the filing does and does not let anyone verify.

Non-revenue water, FY2024

Recoverable annually
$60,100
Apparent loss is valued at this utility's own reported retail price of water. Real loss is NOT included — DWR publishes a variable production cost whose unit it does not declare, so no dollar figure is put on the leaked water. The real recoverable total is higher than this by an amount this filing does not let anyone state.

Balance check
inapplicable
DWR derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so this decomposition holds by construction.

What the record shows

5.4% non-revenue water in FY2024, higher than 19% of the 545 California systems that filed that year.

What it charges

$42.51 a month for a household using 6 hundred cubic feet — 4,488 gallons — and $161.05 at 17,952 gallons. Computed from the fixed charge and the tiers this system filed for reporting year 2025, not read off a rate sheet.

The fixed charge is $35.47 a month before any water is used. Billing is monthly, quoted in hundred cubic feet.

From data/archive/ca-ear-rates/2026-09-09-6eba0fd85f1f-section8-charges.jsonl, extracted 2026-09-09 from the Board's published section 8a file. That file has no cells: a value is found by the system identifier and the question abbreviation above.

The Board also publishes an undocumented charge field for this volume. Our figure reproduces it to the cent, which is what establishes that the field is a bill at this volume for systems like this one.

This is what the system reported for reporting year 2025. It is not necessarily the rate in force today, and nothing in the filing says whether it has since changed.

Compliance record

1 violation on EPA's record for this system as of 2026Q2, of which 1 is health-based. 1 resolved, and 0 still open.

Nothing on the record is open as of 2026Q2.

Counted as distinct violations, not as rows: EPA's export carries one row per enforcement action taken against a violation, so a row count would multiply this system's record several times over. A violation here is a breach of a reporting, monitoring or contaminant-level rule as reported to EPA — it is not a measurement of the water, and this site has none.

Who filed this audit

California Water Service Company King City filed this audit for FY2024 and operates no other system in the export that year. California keys its export on the filing organization and not on the system, so the two coincide here rather than by definition.

Every figure on this page is read from DWR's published export as this site holds it: a 184-column extract of DWR's 190-column file. Six columns naming individuals, including the contact and the third-party validator, are removed before the bytes are committed, so the click path behind each figure lands on the extract and not on DWR's original. The column letters differ from DWR's for that reason.

Water balance, FY2024 · 511.5 MG system input
Billed 483.6 MG Unbilled authorized 1.21 MG Apparent loss 12.3 MG Real loss 14.4 MG

DWR derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so these parts sum to the whole on every filing. What a filing can get wrong is which of these numbers were measured.

Where is it going?

This page says how much — roughly $60,100 a year. It cannot say which accounts, which zones, or which meters. That takes your billing history, your meter reads, and your production data reconciled against each other.

Our Water Loss Recovery Snapshot is three weeks, one flat fee, and the deliverable is a ranked list of specific accounts and zones with dollars and a confidence on each.
