An appeals court decision handed down Monday has thrown into question a major component of California's drought conservation efforts.
California's 4th District Court of Appeal found that San Juan Capistrano's tiered water rate structure was unconstitutional because it charged more for water than it cost the city to provide the service.
The court said the city's policy — which penalized water guzzlers with higher rates — failed to base the fees on the actual cost of providing water to customers, as required under Proposition 218.
At least two-thirds of California water agencies use some type of tiered structure, which officials say has been an effective tool for encouraging customers to use less water. The remaining agencies use a flat-rate structure based on the units of water consumed.

FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — A natural gas pipeline explosion at a California sheriff's gun range shot flames well over 100 feet into the air, left 11 people injured and brought traffic on a busy highway to a halt, authorities and witnesses said.
The explosion on a Pacific Gas & Electric Co. pipe happened at the Fresno County Sheriff's gun range while an equipment operator was using a front-loader to build a dirt berm to confine gunfire to the range, the sheriff's department said. A group of county jail inmates were doing cleanup work nearby and most were injured in the blast.
Traffic heading north and south on Highway 99 in Fresno was halted by the explosion at about 2:30 p.m. as flames towered over the roadway, the California Highway Patrol reported.
Freelance photographer Kevin Ling, 42, was driving by shortly after the blast when he saw fire flying into the sky.

Federal officials said a heroin distributor who led police on a high-speed pursuit in Orange County on Monday night was wanted in connection with injecting a Dallas teen with a fatal dose of the drug.
Jimison Coleman, 36, and his associates administered an overdose of the drug so they could steal $3,000 from her, law enforcement officials said.
Buena Park police arrested Coleman of Dallas in Irvine after noticing his license plate matched that of someone wanted on suspicion of murder in Texas.
Federal authorities say Coleman, who also goes by Jaymo, is linked to the death last year of 19-year-old Rian Lashley. He is also charged with conspiring to possess with the intent to distribute heroin, according to the U.S. attorney’s office in Texas.
Cierra Allyn Rounds, 27, Glen William Brunton, 28, and Kathryn Grace Dirks, 25 are also named in a three-count indictment that includes drug charges resulting in Lashley’s death.
Rounds and Brunton joined Coleman, Dirks and Lashley for breakfast at a restaurant in Plano, Texas, on March 25, 2014, when they discovered that Lashley had $3,000, an iPhone and an iPad.
