About SWDC

Summit Water Distribution Company is a non-profit, mutual, shareholder owned company. As a shareholder in Summit Water, you own a proportionate share of the company and are entitled to a specific increment of water  based on your share certificate. For most residential shareholders the increment of water that you own is .76 acre feet. This is equivalent to 247,630 gallons during each water year which begins January 1st and ends December 31st.

The typical household can easily stay within the water share by using 350 gallons or less per day in the winter when not irrigating outdoors and 1,200 gallons per day in the summer when you are irrigating outdoors. Tracking your water use is a simple task that can save you from receiving substantial overuse charges each year. Each shareholder is billed monthly for their water share and once annually if the water share has been exceeded.

Rate Increase Information

We would like to inform you about necessary adjustments to our shareholder assessments as Summit Water Distribution Company prepares to meet the ongoing needs of the shareholders in the coming years. The adjustments to the assessments are based upon an assessment study conducted by Bowen-Collins Engineering in 2023 with a goal of the company meeting its current and future obligations necessary to provide high quality water delivery service. Thes adjustments will enable us to continue to maintain reliable service and address critical needs within our system.

Challenges Driving the Rate Adjustment

1. Water Purchase Costs:
   • Our contract with Weber Basin Water Conservancy District currently includes a 40% discount, which will expire at the end of 2025.
   • Weber Basin is also planning significant general water rate increases, further impacting our expenses.
2. Treatment Plant Improvements:
   • Since 2020, our Spring Creek Springs and Storage Well water sources have been offline due to surface water contamination. To restore these vital sources, SWDC is planning to construct treatment facilities in 2025, requiring significant capital investment.
3. System Maintenance and Renewal:
   • Much of our infrastructure is 30-40 years old and requires rehabilitation or replacement.
   • Rising construction costs due to inflation have further increased the expense of these critical projects.

Thank you for your continued trust and support as we work to ensure a sustainable water system for the future.
