If I saved $45 in irrigation water in 3.5 months, that would mean that I didn't use any water at all. After the irrigation base payment, I only pay about $10 per month for irrigation water, which is a total of about 4,000 gallons per month. Are you sure your calculations are correct? Or, are you using potable water for irrigation?
