Conserving water through pricing
The problem of water conservation is examined from the perspective of basic economic theory. In some cases it may be appropriate to tax water usage for purposes of conservation rather than for financing additional capacity. Excess revenues could be used as credits on business property taxes to encourage economic expansion or could be rebated to low‐income families and nonprofit institutions.
