Low-Income Water Rate Assistance Program.

Abstract

Existing law requires the State Water Resources Control Board, by January 1, 2018, and in collaboration with specified entities, to develop a plan for the funding and implementation of the Low-Income Water Rate Assistance Program. Existing law authorizes the board to consider existing rate assistance programs authorized by the Public Utilities Commission in developing the plan, and authorizes the plan to include recommendations for other cost-effective methods of offering assistance to low-income water customers. This bill would require the board to administer the program, upon appropriation by the Legislature. The bill would limit eligibility for the program to a person that is both a low-income water customer and financially affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
