Rates Effective November 2006

The Mansfield service area rates were approved by the Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC) in Docket 06-05-10 and became effective on November 27, 2006, when it was part of the former Birmingham Utilities.   Connecticut Water is not proposing to change these rates at this time.  Any future change in rates will be subject to approval by the DPUC. 

The charges for all customers includes a Basic Service Charge and a Commodity Charge.  The Basic Service Charge is applied each billing period to help cover certain fixed costs such as meter reading, testing and replacement, bill preparation and processing, etc.  These basic service charges are applied even if there is no consumption at a premise during a particular billing period.  The Commodity Charge is determined by the amount of water used during the billing period.  The Commodity Charge shows on the bill in units of gallons or cubic feet depending on how the meter installed at your premises records the usage.

Customer bills are issued once per month.  The number of days in a billing cycle may vary slightly, but your service charge and consumption reflect the usage and billing period for your account.  Your bill is the combination of the Basic Service Charge for the meter size at your account, the amount of water used during the billing period times the Commodity Charge for your customer class, as well as any other special charges or interest due on your account.
