Proposed EPA Rule on Numeric Nutrient Criteria

NOTICE: Pending environmental lawsuit that can potentially increase your utility rates by 35% - 40% and have an unproven benefit to the environment

How Does Numeric Nutrient Criteria Affect our Ratepayers?

Assuming the Authority could obtain bond financing at its current rate of approximately 5%, a 30-year bond for $123 million dollars would add an extra $8.02 million dollars per year to its existing debt service. Annual power consumption for the proposed additional treatment would add an estimated $2.24 million dollars. Operating labor and maintenance is estimated to cost an additional $0.5 million per year. The total estimated annual cost for the new facilities is $10.76 million dollars. This could equate to a rate increase between 35%-40% to our customers through service rates.
