3 2017 Ohio EPA Sewer and Water Rate Survey Introduction The Sewer and Water Rate Survey s central purpose is to collect and publish Ohio residential sewer and water rates rates were collected for the thirty-third annual Sewer and Water Rate Survey, conducted by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency. Ohio EPA sent survey questionnaires to 634 municipalities and districts and received 468 responses (74%). The 2017 Sewer and Water Rate Survey also gathered information regarding the following: -in Fees -in Fees Historic survey data and sewer and water rates for over 500 cities, villages, and districts are available on online at Ohio EPA s Office of Fiscal Administration web page located at: 1

4 2017 Ohio EPA Sewer and Water Rate Survey Sewer and Water Rate Calculations Sewer and water charges usually depend on consumption measured in gallons or cubic feet, and are billed monthly, bimonthly or quarterly. In order to standardize sewer and water rates across Ohio and to allow for comparisons among systems, the 2017 Sewer and Water Rate Survey presents rates calculated for an assumed level of consumption. Annual rates were calculated for residential customers within municipal limits, assuming that a household consists of three (3) people individually consuming 85 gallons of water each day. Community annual sewer and water rate calculations assumed one of the following as the average water consumption per household: 7,756 gallons per month (1,037 cubic feet per month) 15,512 gallons bi-monthly (2,074 cubic feet bi-monthly) 23,268 gallons per quarter (3,111 cubic feet per quarter) The rates in Appendices 2 and 3 include charges levied for direct use of sewer and water systems. Charges unrelated to sewer and water use, such as income and property taxes, have not been included in rate calculations. Privately owned sewer and water systems may be funded differently than some public systems. As a result, the sewer and water rates charged by privately owned companies may be higher than some public systems. Actual sewer and water charges for individual households will be higher (or lower) than those listed in Appendices 2 and 3 for those households with average, metered water use of more or less than 7,756 gallons per month. 2

5 2017 Ohio EPA Sewer and Water Rate Survey Sewer Rates The 2017 average annual residential sewer rate in Ohio was $677, approximately 2.4% increase over the 2016 rates. Table 1 shows annual sewer rate averages for 1990 through 2017, along with the percentage change in average rates and the consumer price index (CPI-U: Midwest urban prices for all items). Figure 1 displays average annual sewer rate data and a trend line adjusting the base year (1990) average sewer rate for inflation.

12 2017 Ohio EPA Sewer and Water Rate Survey Tap-in Fees Appendix 4 contains the sewer and water tap-in fees submitted by the communities for residential customers inside and outside their municipal limits. These fees are presented as they were reported on the questionnaires, without correction or interpretation. As a result, they may not be comparable across communities. For example, some of the reported tap-in fees included labor and installation charges. Whereas other reported tap-in fees included only an administrative fee with the customer being held responsible for hiring their own private contractor to install the lines and taps. 10
