I'd imagine this is happening because I installed non water saving toilets and showers on my lot with Dew collectors. I think that timing is everything, sell water while showering in a standard shower.

My total water was at -700 total even though my daily income was +52.64!

Very quickly the bill starts to reflect the negative amount of water you have and I've seen bills coming in that were owing 2000 simoleans!
