Do you need to comply?
The non-urban metering rules are rolling out in stages to give water users, suppliers and installers of metering equipment enough time to prepare to become compliant with the rules.
The next rollout date is for water users in the Southern Inland who must have compliant equipment installed by 1 June 2023.
If you are captured by the non-urban metering rules and you are installing a new or replacement meter–your new meter must be compliant, regardless of your rollout date.
