Temporary Water Use - City of Sacramento

The City of Sacramento Department of Utilities recently implemented a new Temporary Water Use Policy.

This policy requires that all individuals who wish to use City water on a temporary basis, such as for construction or for water trucks:

Have a permit issued annually and any vehicles used to transport the water must be inspected annually.
Pay a deposit and be issued a City water meter and backflow device. The deposit will be refunded upon return of the water meter and the backflow device and provided all monthly bills are paid.
Be billed monthly for water usage. Customers will be based on the City's metered water rate.
