Why Metered Water?

In 2022, Utah legislators passed House Bill 242 to have metered non-potable water throughout the state of Utah by the year 2030…

About the project

NOTE: This website covers only the water providers in the cities below. If you are in a different city, please contact your water provider directly.

Legislation passed by the Utah State Legislature in 2022 requires secondary water connections in Utah to have a meter by 2030.

Water systems throughout the state, as a result, will be installing meters until more than 200,000 connections are completed. Meter installation, combined with public education about responsible water use, has proven to be one of the state's most effective water conservation tools. Check out What's Happening In My Neighborhood below to get information on installations in your area.

Water savings through metering alone could range between 25 and 40 percent--essentially, "a full reservoir of water."

- Rep. Val Peterson (R-Orem)

The money from the federal government’s American Rescue Plan Act will help water districts cover up to 70% of the cost for installing meters if they do so in 2022 or 2023.

The Metering Process

DIG

A contractor will dig down to your secondary water connection.

CONNECT

A meter will be connected, helping you and your community water system better understand your use.

INSTALL

A meter box will be installed to protect, and give access to, the meter.

RESTORE

Landscaping around the excavated area will be restored as much as possible.

What's Happening in My Neighborhood?

Bountiful

Secondary water meters installations are currently happening in Bountiful. Here are maps of the installation area that started in fall of 2024, and the overall project area with phases by year:

Upcoming installation areas (by year)

Clinton/West Point

Installation of secondary meters in West Point and a small part of Clinton have begun and will finish up in 2025.

Existing meters may receive a new radio to better gather data. The rest of Clinton will receive meters over the next several years (2025-2028).

Watch for door hangers notifying when contractors will be in your area. The map shows the areas to have meters installed in 2024-2025:

Benefits Of Metered Water

Water efficiency: We can be more efficient with our water resources if we know how much we’re using. That’s where meters come in! Studies associated with secondary metering projects have found that metering can help property owners reduce water use up to 30% or more, just through education and by adjusting their outside watering. In addition, meters help detect leaks and other water supply problems.

Detect water waste: Previous metering efforts have revealed leaks that may have been going on for years, and users also had no idea how much water they were using, often leading to waste. Metering brings awareness to users and opens the door for education about using water more efficiently, which could result in water savings of more than 30 percent.

Regular supply: The water conserved this year may be next year's supply. With Utah's reservoirs lower than we’ve seen in a long time, we need to use less on our landscapes to ensure enough water for the coming summers. When we use less, that water can be used for our homes, businesses, and the environment.
