(a) To encourage the conservation of water in multifamily residential rental buildings through means either within the landlord’s or the tenant’s control.

(b) To establish that the practices involving the submetering of dwelling units for water service are just and reasonable, and include appropriate safeguards for both tenants and landlords.

Notes

It creates no operative requirement in the text itself.
