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.
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.

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.
