Amador Water Agency - Pg&e
What Amador Water Agency - Pg&e filed with DWR about the water it produced and the water it billed for, 2016–2024 — and what the filing does and does not let anyone verify.
- Non-revenue water, FY2024
- 0.7% Computed from filed system input and billed consumption.
- system input volume 0.48 sheet Sheet1, cell AN84 · converted to million gallons from acre-feet
- billed authorized consumption 0.48 sheet Sheet1, cell AQ84 · billed metered plus billed unmetered, converted to million gallons from acre-feet
- Annual value of the filed loss
- — Not estimable from what DWR publishes. A loss percentage cannot be priced without the volume it is a share of.

Read from data/archive/ca-dwr-water-loss/2026-09-05-f0dfea5a6026.csv (SHA-256 f0dfea5a6026881d), our archived copy of the file as it stood on 2026-09-05. That path is committed to the repository and is not served here. The agency publishes its own current copy at https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/d6cdd89e-49b0-4b1f-86ee-8b7237e5f169/resource/058ac6ca-a8b4-4f28-b6c8-11e48309f3b4/download/ca-retailer-waterlossdata.csv, which may since have been revised.
What the record shows
0.7% non-revenue water in FY2024, higher than 0% of the 545 California systems that filed that year.
- The figure is improving across the record.
It does not establish what moved. A meter replacement program, a main break, a change of billing system, a corrected prior-year filing and an ordinary reporting error all produce a series that looks like this, and a filed water loss audit does not say which happened. What the flag does say is that the years disagree with each other by more than most of the state's do, so a single year of this series is a weak basis for a decision without the records behind it.
What it charges
No bill is published for this system. This system did not state a billing frequency, so the period a charge covers is not established.
It did answer the Board's customer-charge questions for reporting year 2025; what is missing is what a comparable figure needs.
Source: California State Water Resources Control Board, electronic Annual Report 2025, section 8a, filed under Health and Safety Code section 116530. How every California bill on this site compares.
Compliance record
2 violations on EPA's record for this system as of 2026Q2, of which 1 is health-based. 2 resolved, and 0 still open.
Nothing on the record is open as of 2026Q2.
Counted as distinct violations, not as rows: EPA's export carries one row per enforcement action taken against a violation, so a row count would multiply this system's record several times over. A violation here is a breach of a reporting, monitoring or contaminant-level rule as reported to EPA — it is not a measurement of the water, and this site has none.
Source: US EPA, Safe Drinking Water Information System, via the ECHO national download, 2026Q2. How we hold it.
- FY2024 reports a leakage index of 8.91532411360258e-16, which would mean less real loss than the unavoidable minimum the same audit computes for this network.
- FY2023 reports a leakage index of 0.00883832872971302, which would mean less real loss than the unavoidable minimum the same audit computes for this network.
Each is reproduced exactly as filed and excluded from every figure computed on this page. A number that contradicts its own audit is a finding about the filing, not a gap in ours.
Who filed this audit
Amador Water Agency filed 6 separate audits for FY2024, one for each public water system it operates, and this page is one of them. California keys its water loss export on the filing organization and not on the system, so a count of California audits is not a count of independent utilities. Amador Water Agency made one set of decisions and filed it 6 times. Read any statewide figure with that in mind, including the ones on this site.
Every figure on this page is read from DWR's published export as this site holds it: a 184-column extract of DWR's 190-column file. Six columns naming individuals, including the contact and the third-party validator, are removed before the bytes are committed, so the click path behind each figure lands on the extract and not on DWR's original. The column letters differ from DWR's for that reason.
DWR derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so these parts sum to the whole on every filing. What a filing can get wrong is which of these numbers were measured.

Where is it going?
This page values the loss. It cannot say which accounts, which zones, or which meters, and it cannot say how much of that value is collectable. Answering either takes your billing history, your meter reads, and your production data reconciled against each other.
Our Water Loss Recovery Snapshot is three weeks, one flat fee, and the deliverable is a ranked list of specific accounts and zones with dollars and a confidence on each.

Every figure above is either filed by the utility or computed from filed figures, and each one says which. If a number here looks wrong, tell us: the error may be in the filing, in our reading of it, or in something the export does not show. Send a correction. We will check it against the source, correct the page where it is wrong, and say what changed.
