Everywhere! Here in Alabama, Water Boards are like little dictatorships with absolutely no accountability or government oversight. I ran into that buzzsaw last year at my office. 3 women employees, 1 toilet, one sink. They tried to tell me we used 20k gallons. I objected, they sent a guy out, found nothing wrong and said my toilet must be running all the time. It wasn't. Nothing I could do about it. Called the city and the State utilities commission and was told no one has any oversight over them. Only thing I could do was go to their meetings. LOL!

BTW, the sewer portion of my bill is higher than the water consumption.

We MIGHT use 300 gallons of water a month, at work. But, I'm billed for a minimum of 1000........going in AND out!

My water bill, when it is correct, is over $100.
