2014 Rate Schedule_Final

SCHEDULED WATER RATE
INCREASE EFFECTIVE JULY 1
Rate increases necessary to
maintain service and reliability
To support our mission to provide a safe and dependable
water supply now and into the future, the fourth installment
of the multi-year approved water rate increase will take effect
July 1, 2014.
The monthly Billing Charge will increase from $7.70 to $8.44;
a difference of $0.74 per month. The water Quantity Charge will
also increase from $3.68 to $4.03 for 1,000 gallons of water for
the average residential customer. Please refer to the table on the
back for the specific rates.
The new rate schedule was approved and took effect in 2012
to keep Oahu’s water infrastructure and treatment systems
operating properly. Additionally, the cost for day-to-day
operation of the Board of Water Supply (BWS) system continues
to rise – electric power, fuel, materials and labor.
The BWS is committed to financially-efficient operations
and is doing many things to keep costs down. This includes
optimizing energy management and facility operations. BWS is
also controlling the size of its workforce by balancing staffing
levels to provide the services needed for the maintenance,
repair, and replacement of its facilities.
By keeping our system in good working order through
planned replacement and repairs, the BWS is helping to
minimize main breaks and emergency repairs that can mean
greater inconveniences and higher costs.
BWS would like to advise customers that although they
receive a combined water and sewer bill, water charges are
separate from sewer charges. For questions regarding your
wastewater charges, please contact the Department of Environmental Services at (808) 768-3330.
If you would like more information about BWS and water
rates, please visit www.boardofwatersupply.com or contact
