§ 715.040. Actual Use Rate Structure.

A. 

Each user shall pay for the services provided by the City based on his/her use of the treatment works as determined by water meter(s) acceptable to the City.

B. 

For those contributors who contribute wastewater, the strength of which is greater than normal domestic sewage, a surcharge in addition to the normal user charge will be collected. The surcharge for operation and maintenance will be determined from the BOD, SS, and other pollutants determined by testing. (Reference is made to Appendix A of this Chapter, on file in the City offices.)

C. 

Any user which discharges any toxic pollutants which cause an increase in the cost of managing the City's sewer system, or any user which discharges any substance which singly or by interaction with other substances causes identifiable increases in the cost of operation, maintenance or replacement of the sewer system shall pay for such increased costs. The charge to each such user shall be as determined by the responsible operating personnel and approved by the Board of Aldermen.
