Dallas Rate Survey
The Water Rates Committee of the Management Division has recently investigated the possibility of publishing a water rates survey in the JOURNAL.
The committee's action was promulgated by the release of a survey conducted by the Hartford Water Co. of Connecticut in 1973 — a survey that had been undertaken with a view to determining possible rate structure during 1975–76.
The Hartford survey reported data similar to that reported on these pages from about 75 respondents of 100 utilities queried.
During the time that the Water Rates Committee was giving consideration to a water rates survey, another survey was being conducted by the Dallas Water Utilities of Dallas, Tex.
This survey too was submitted to AWWA's Management Division. The JOURNAL'S editors became enlightened of the existence of the Dallas survey and requested permission to print it.
The editors believed that this material would fit well into this economics issue. Moreover, the Dallas utility agreed to AWWA's acting as a clearing house for this survey and each planned annual updating of it. The JOURNAL'S editors propose to publish these updates as they become available.
The tables that appear on these pages include data for 62 utilities from cities in 28 states across the US, plus the District of Columbia. All of the utilities service areas where the urban populations are in excess of 125000. In addition many service, either directly or indirectly, areas beyond that of the inner city, for which the population is reported.
These are two sets of tables. The first, beginning with the next page, is concerned with billing procedure; the second set, beginning with page 236, gives data about the charges.
AWWA thanks the Dallas Water Utilities for making the statistics available. And thanks to the Hartford Water Co. for showing the way.
