Where Your Water Dollar Goes
Ever wonder how your water bill payment is put to use? The figure below provides an approximate breakdown of how every $1 you pay is allocated to keep your water service running safely and reliably:
💧 $0.31 – Infrastructure Costs
A significant portion goes toward upgrading and maintaining the pipelines, pumps, and other critical infrastructure that deliver water to your home. These investments ensure long-term reliability and help prevent costly breakdowns.
💧 $0.30 – Water Supply & Treatment Costs
Nearly one-third of your dollar supports the sourcing, treatment, and testing of water to meet strict health and safety standards.
💧 $0.29 – Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Costs
This portion covers the day-to-day expenses of operating our facilities, responding to service needs, and keeping systems running efficiently around the clock.

The remaining amount goes toward local and state taxes that help support community services and compliance with regulatory requirements.
Together, these investments support the continued delivery of high-quality, reliable water service for your home and community.
