9. Other Matters

Rule 19, entitled "Service to Separate Premises and Multiple Units, and Resale of Water," is included in the tariffs of public utility water corporations regulated by the CPUC. Section B.2.b. of Rule 19 recognizes that submetering water at MHPs and multi-unit apartments in accordance with § 2705.5 is a lawful activity. Section C. of Rule 19 prohibits the resale of water by utility customers except in limited situations not relevant to the MHP and multi-unit apartment issues explored in this proceeding. After considering the positions of all parties, including the public utility water corporations, and reviewing relevant jurisdictional law, we conclude that amendment of Rule 19 will not provide solutions to the problems identified.
