Current Fees

Laboratory Fees
All permitted commercial and industrial users of the sanitary sewer system whose wastewater is sampled by the District are charged a monthly laboratory fee. The laboratory fee covers the cost incurred by the District to conduct sampling. The monthly laboratory fee is equal to the sum of one (1) sample event fee ($180), plus laboratory analysis costs for each parameter sampled, divided by 6.
Flat Rate Surcharge Fees
Food Service Establishments from which representative wastewater samples cannot be collected are charged flat rate surcharge fees. Flat rate surcharge fees for each risk category are based on the District’s most recent analysis of samples collected at Food Service Establishments with the same risk category.
Food Service Establishments from which representative wastewater samples cannot be collected and do not employ an approved grease abatement device (e.g., grease interceptor, hydromechanical grease interceptor, API, etc.) are charged an up-charge equal to ten (10) times the average concentration of TSS and Total Oil & Grease.
Surcharge Fee Calculations
Surcharge Fees are based on the most recent sample analysis and are calculated using the following formula:

Surcharge Fee = ( ∅*X_constituent- X_threshold)*Gallons*α*Unit Cost

Where:
∅=Multiplier for use or non-use of grease abatement devices
∅=1.0 for facilities with grease abatement devices
∅=10.0 for facilities without grease abatement devices
X_constituent=Constituent concentration (mg/l)
X_threshold= Allowable constituent concentration (mg/l)
Gallons=Gallons of sewage discharged per month
α=Constant used to convert from mg/l of constituent to lbs of constituent (α =8.34 * 10^-6 )
Unit Cost=Unit Cost to treat a pound of constituent as indicated above.

In areas where the District installs sewer main lines within streets or other dedicated public sewer easements acceptable to the District, property owners’ sewer laterals may be installed from the main line to the edge of the property line by the District’s contractor for the property owners abutting the main line in those cases where such owners pay to the District the required lateral fee established by the District as the same may be amended from time to time.
