Measurement of Quantity. (a) The parties agree to use the best practical method for measuring Sewage delivered to the WWTP by City, as follows: (1) Readings of the measuring equipment for each Interconnect shall be used whenever they are available, adjusted, if necessary, as provided in Division VI. (2) If such readings are not available, the flow shall be estimated using the best available data, which may include pump run-time measurements and pumping rates, metered consumption of retail water at premises served by the City System and an estimate of other substances entering the City System. Any such estimate shall be made by the Operating District and shall give effect to the historical relationship between retail water consumed and Sewage deliveries, the number of customers, the weather, the condition of the facilities in question, any available field data on leaks, inflows, infiltration and other available data. (b) City will require all users connected to the City System that receive potable water from the City’s water utility to have a metering device capable of measuring the amount of water delivered to the user. City shall use reasonable diligence in installing, maintaining and repairing said retail meters and shall provide the Operating District a list of the meter readings, if requested, including the location of use and a total of the estimated amounts of water used.
