From the O.C. Register:

The general manager of the South Coast Water District outlined a 10-year plan Wednesday to become less reliant on imported water by decreasing imports to 35 percent of its total water supply and getting the rest from groundwater, recycled water and ocean desalination.

In the meantine, however, charges for annual service and monthly water use for the district’s customers will have to go up, SCWD officials said during two community forums.

If the rate increase is approved by the board of directors June 25, the average single-family home would pay $19 to $38 more on monthly water and sewage bills starting in July. SCWD serves 42,000 residential and commercial customers in Dana Point, South Laguna and areas of north San Clemente.
