Big news in California! The Otay Water District has been ordered to recalculate a $18M refund after a court found their fee structure violated state law by focusing on conservation over actual service costs. The trial court's initial refund was based on speculative data, but now they'll have to use actual water usage records. Liability stands, but the refund amount is getting a second look.
