Additional Information

The State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) has conducted a new survey of sewer rates and connection (capacity) fees. The report is presented in PDF and Excel formats. The PDF format includes a cover letter, a copy of the original survey form, a statistical summary of the sewer rates and connection fees, and data pre-sorted by agency, population, county, and treatment level. The Excel format includes the raw data submitted by the agencies. The statistical summary includes only information from agencies charging a flat rate. Variable rate information was not included in the summary because the rates may change from month-to-month. Variable rate information has been included in the raw data submitted by the agencies. A total of 963 questionnaires were distributed to various wastewater agencies, and 591 questionnaires were completed for the SFY 2016-17 survey. The data was collected from November 30, 2016 to March 11, 2017, but the fees represent charges for SFY 2016-17. The raw data is presented as reported by the agencies; care should be exercised in using this report because the data has not been independently verified by State Water Board staff.
