Reclaimed Water Rates

The current retail reclaimed water rate and fee schedule adopted by the Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners on January 6, 1998, is as follows:

** The $4.50 billing charge will be charged only once bimonthly for those customers who have both County water and reclaimed service which are billed on the same account.

Reclaimed water is acceptable for use in:

• Irrigating lawns and most landscaping.
• Washing of cars, boats, or heavy equipment.  It is recommended that after the use of reclaimed water, vehicles are rinsed with potable water and towel dried to prevent spotting.
• Washing of roofs and buildings.
• Use in fountains and decorative pools (they must be clearly marked as containing reclaimed water).

Reclaimed water is unsuitable for the following purposes:

• Consumption by humans.
• Bathing, cooking or toilet flushing in residential dwellings.
• Any interconnection with another water source.
• Recreational use involving body contact (i.e. swimming pools or outdoor showers).
• Irrigation of vegetables or other edible crops which are not peeled, cooked, or thermally processed before being consumed.
• Run off into or filling of swimming pools.
