WATER METERS TO BE
UPGRADED THIS SUMMER

Grants from Yuba Water Agency (YWA) and the State Department of Water Resources (DWR) have made it possible for Wheatland to replace all water meters during summer, 2021. The upgraded meters will allow residents much more control over their water use and, ultimately, their water bills. 

The new meter system provides online access to use data helping residents better track use, and if necessary, make adjustments to reduce consumption throughout the month. Installation of the new meters is expected to start as early as April and be complete by October.
