Customers receive both a service charge and a consumption charge during their normal billing cycle. 

The service charge is a fee charged for being connected to the water main and having water service available, whether it is utilized or not. The service charge is also based on the size of the meter. The size of the meter is determined by the amount of water flow needed to service the facility.  

The consumption charge is based on the number of gallons consumed by the customer during the billing cycle.
