Abstract: An understanding of the "fairness" of a tariff or price schedule can be useful for many types of policy analysis. The Gini coefficient is suggested as one way to assess fairness where user groups are well defined. The Gini coefficient is calculated for a sample of California water purveyors over a ten-year period.
