Notice of Proposed Rate Changes
To Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority Customers:
The Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority (PWSA) has filed a request with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) on April 13, 2021 to increase your water and wastewater conveyance rates and establish a new stormwater fee. This notice describes our request, the PUC’s role, and the actions you can take.
PWSA has requested an overall rate request totaling $32.2 million or 17.2% that will be phased in over two years. If the Authority’s entire request is approved as filed, the total bill for water, wastewater conveyance, and stormwater service for a typical Residential customer using 3,000 gallons per month and charged the base rate for stormwater services would increase from $79.34 to $87.19 per month or by 9.89% in 2022 and increase from $87.19 to $91.05 or by 4.42% in 2023.
The proposed stormwater fee is included in the totals above and is based on the amount of impervious surface on a property. The average amount of impervious surface on a property is approximately 1,650 square feet. This is equal to one equivalent residential unit (ERU) of impervious surface, which is accepted as the industry standard for determining a stormwater fee. If approved, the stormwater fee will be applied to all residential and non-residential properties.
For a typical Residential customer using 3,000 gallons per month with a 5/8-inch meter and generating stormwater from one ERU, the total bill would increase from $79.34 to $87.19 per month or by 9.89% in 2022, and from $87.19 to $91.05 per month or by 4.43% in 2023.
For a typical Residential customer enrolled in PWSA’s Bill Discount Program using 3,000 gallons per month with a 5/8-inch meter and a reduced stormwater fee, the total bill would increase from $41.77 to $45.34 per month or by 8.54% in 2022, and from $45.34 to $47.90 per month or by 5.64% in 2023.
For a typical Commercial customer using 13,000 gallons per month with a 1-inch meter and generating stormwater runoff from 8 ERU’s, the total bill would increase from $294.27 to $351.21 per month or by 19.35% in 2022, and from $351.21 to $376.31 per month or by 7.15% in 2023.
For an Industrial customer using 680,000 gallons per month with a 4-inch meter and generating stormwater runoff from 30 ERU’s, the total bill would increase from $12,267.35 to $13,079.05 per month or by 6.62% in 2022, and from $13,079.05 to $13,758.83 per month or by 5.20% in 2023.
For a Health and Education customer using 50,000 gallons per month with a 2-inch meter and generating stormwater runoff from 32 ERU’s, the total bill would increase from $1,276.07 to $1,459.07 per month or by 14.34% in 2022, and from $1,459.07 to $1,514.67 per month or by 3.81% in 2023.
To find out your customer class or how the requested increase may affect your water and wastewater conveyance bill, contact PWSA at 412-255-2423 or visit www.pgh2o.com/ourwaterfuture for more information. The rates requested by the Authority may be found in the Tariff Water – PA. P.U.C. No.1 Supp. No. 7, Tariff Wastewater – PA. P.U.C. No.1 Supp. No. 6, and Tariff Stormwater – PA. P.U.C. No. 1. You may also examine the material filed with the PUC, which explains the requested increase and the reasons for it. A copy of these documents is kept at PWSA’s office. Upon request, the Authority will send you the Statement of Reasons for these Tariffs, explaining why the rate increase has been requested.
PUC Role
The state agency which now approves rates for PWSA is the PUC. The PUC will examine the requested rate increase and can prevent existing rates from changing until it investigates and/or holds hearings on the request. The Authority must prove that the requested rates are reasonable. After examining the evidence, the PUC may grant all, some, or none of the request or may reduce existing rates.
The PUC may change the amount of the rate increase or decrease requested by the utility for each customer class. As a result, the rate charged to you may be different than the rate requested by the utility as shown above.
Actions You Can Take
There are three ways to support or challenge PWSA’s request to change its rates:
1.You can be a witness at a public input hearing. Public input hearings are held if the PUC opens an investigation of the utility’s rate increase request and if there is a large number of customers interested in the case. At these hearings, you have the opportunity to present your views in person to the PUC judge hearing the case and to the PWSA representatives. All testimony given ‘‘under oath’’ becomes part of the official rate case record. These hearings are held in the service area of the utility.
2.You can send the PUC a letter telling why you support or object to the requested rate increase. At times there is information in these letters that makes the PUC aware of successes or problems with the utility’s service or management. This information can be helpful when the PUC investigates the rate request.
3.You can file a formal complaint. If you want a hearing before a judge, you must file a formal complaint. By filing a formal complaint, you assure yourself the opportunity to take part in hearings about the rate increase request. All complaints should be filed with the PUC before June 12, 2021. If no formal complaints are filed, the Commission may grant all, some, or none of the
request without holding a hearing before a judge. Send your letter or request for a formal complaint form to the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, Post Office Box 3265, Harrisburg, PA 17105-3265.
