Wastewater Averaging Rules

The District's Rate Order states that bills for sewer service shall be computed (1) on the basis of the average amount of water used by the customer during the winter season based upon the average of the monthly readings of the customer's water meter for the preceding November, December, and January billing periods (as shown on the December, January and February bills) or (2) on the basis of the customer's current monthly water bill, whichever is less. If a residential customer does not have a history of water usage during the preceding December, January and February billing periods, the customer's monthly sewer bill shall be calculated based upon (1) the customer's current monthly water usage or (2) on the current District average water usage per month, whichever is less. Winter months are used to calculate the sewer averaging because historically customers use less water at this time of year.

Any resident filling a pool during the averaging months should call the District office at (512)258-4104 to arrange for the meter to be read before and after the pool is filled, the winter average will be adjusted accordingly.

All requests for sewer average reductions will be reviewed before the March 2006 billing period.
