Beaumont water and sewer rates
Who supplies water to Beaumont houses, what it costs, and how the sewer charge works.
Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District
Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District bills most accounts every two months: a fixed bi-monthly meter charge, three single-family tiers per ccf (0-16, 17-34 and 35+ units) and pass-through charges per ccf for SCE power and SGPWA imported water. Rates step up each January 1.

| 0 to 8 units | $2.64 |
| 8 to 17 units | $2.91 |
| 17 to more | $3.85 |
