How are CVSan’s sewer rates calculated and evaluated?
CVSan’s rate structure for the sewer service charges is an annual fixed charge and is comprised of three customer classes: residential, commercial, and institutional. The rates for the sewer service charges are calculated for each customer group based on the cost to provide service, considering both the quantity of sewage discharged and other sewer characteristics affecting the cost for treatment and disposal. CVSan uses third-party consultants to evaluate its SSC every six years. Find the most recent rate evaluation study in the document center located at the bottom of this page. CVSan also uses the budget process to develop operating and maintenance costs, capital improvement, and renewal and replacement costs.
