Water utilities need to charge customers to build and maintain infrastructure—the water storage tanks, treatment plants, and underground pipes that deliver water to homes and businesses. The revenue is also used to pay the workers who provide you with water service day or night. There are a wide variety of rate structures that are used to bill customers, some of which are described below.
Many utilities use a combination of a fixed fee (base) and a variable fee (volume) for their water rate structure. Fixed charges generally include the price the customer pays as a base charge to help cover costs for maintaining existing infrastructure and repaying loans and bonds used to build that infrastructure. Variable charges are the price the customer pays per volume of water used, which reflect the costs of providing water, such as costs for chemical treatment to provide safe water and energy to move and deliver water.
WMUA customers have only one meter on location and will charge both volumes based on water entering the house. This is yet another reason to reduce your own water use.
