Use of Peak Demands in Determination of Residential Rates
The two major steps in a study of water rates are to investigate demands for various users, and to allocate fixed and operating costs of system facilities on an equitable basis. In this article, the allocation of plant investment for residential customers according to their domestic and sprinkling uses is discussed. Commercial, industrial, and special uses such as fire protection and air conditioning are not discussed. Data on residential demands in Baltimore are presented to illustrate the principles involved. Various alternatives for the development of equitable water rate schedules for residential customers are outlined.
