The water wasn't wasted. It was used to put out the fire. We're talking about $50 worth of water. Negligible compared to the overall costs.

- barrkel 6y agoI think it's closer to $250 judging by https://www.midlandtexas.gov/505/Current-Water-and-Sewer-Rates https://www.midlandtexas.gov/505/Current-Water-and-Sewer-Rat... (the first set of prices for water in Texas I could find, presumably representative of scarcity etc.) That assumes household consumption. It could be as high $420 if the highest marginal rate applies. Still fairly inconsequential overall.
